The idea is that it rewards those that have been securing the network. It logistically doesn't make sense to award all the addresses because we will be manually checking balances and stakes to ensure that the owners fit the criteria for the giveaway. We don't want to award exchanges with VRC because they just hold and don't stake.
Not only that, but the amount of VRM we would like to give away is small compared to the ICO. It's simply a token of our appreciation for those that supported us. It's about as open as it could be with a public list, fair warning before the ICO, and direct distribution via identical public keys.

I guess things check out good so far, I mean, long ass users like myself who have been holding for years have in fact been securing this network up until this point. Wish rather than the 250 get the same amount, maybe the rewards just go down the line into smaller amounts, or a reward is based on percentage, but now it gets back to what someone else was saying regarding the rich getting richer. I guess more or less I might find issues on either side overthinking this. I trust whatever decision is made in the sense that you guys are open about it and this discussions have been taking place.
I really do need to double check my balances in the main wallet. A wallet does not = a vrc address, right? Like if I had 200000 vrc, but they were put in 20 vrc increments into separate addresses, the combined total is what counts as the total wallet amount, right?
Yes, wallet =/= VRC address. Make sure they're all in the same address. You can send to yourself (a particular address) if necessary.
250 was chosen because this will be a manual process and if we were to do every VRC address it would be time prohibitive.

Second, I would say I'm not as big of a fan of rewarding long time Vericoin holders or top 250 wallets with Verium. To me it just seems like it's a 'rich get richer' plot. I understand the idea is to rewards those who have stuck things out good & bad but in my opinion this only hurts those on the outside (who we want to get interested again).
I am not sure if I'm in the top 250, I know I have been at one point for sure, but even if I was number 1, there is something that isn't sitting well with that reward system in my mind and I'm not even sure why. I am a long term VRC user, and if there is a good way to quantify and make rewards with that fair, I am all good. It is just a weird situation where what is fair is being determined as we go, which I understand. I mean I guess things are fair in the sense we can all see what the top 250 are and if we wanted to buy enough to get high in that list to ensure a bonus.

You would need about 16600 VRC to recieve a VRM bounty. If we vote for it of course
16600 VRCx 0.044 USD (today price) = USD 730.
Doesn't seem like much though,
But congrats if your in the top 250.
as long as the price remains at this level it does not seem much .
but patience will be rewarded.
sit back relax and watch vrc grow in tech and in price.

Major cleanout of code and optimizations for 1.6.5
https://github.com/effectsToCause/vericoin/commit/acb67b89beb9cb8b3b8419fe89510dd89cc45e10
Showing 96 changed files with 24 additions and 5,719 deletions.
Much lighter in code, UI and CPU usage.
Should be solid on raspberry pi's now. Also easy to import and export private keys, no instructions necessary.

We have created a stake-only endowment: VFEndownxxnHea9mv59kZx8c7TysGbndYx
All funds donated to this will be staked perpetually. Only staked interest will be used to fund any VeriFund project.
Feel free to send any donations in and get this baby going! The donated funds will never be sold/traded/given away/used for projects. Only interest from it will be.

All ICO funds usage will be voted on by the community, details of voting procedure to come later, but we would like to have 50% of the VeriCoin raised in the ICO to be sent to this endowment and staked perpetually. If you also like this idea be sure to vote for it.
I am all for the idea of having 50% of Verium ICO funds to go to this endowment. How does one go about voting for this? (perhaps this is my verbal vote for it).

Otherwise I'm very excited for everything going on here. I hope you can release more information (like ICO date) sooner than later and I would also highly suggest having a clear plan before the ICO on what the funds will go towards. It seems in what I've read there is this "we'll figure it out after we get the money" mindset and to me - I'd feel a lot more comfortable investing larger sums of money if I know what the game plan is prior to investing.
Just my 2 cents on everything going on - keep up the good work!
Definitely should get vote done before ICO so people can know what their investment is doing. We should start voting soon. I'll discuss with the team about setting up the voting.
Why don't we do some sort of lottery??
Promotional stuff with some of the VRM have fun with it!!
