We are proud to announce the latest project from Banksycoin. We hope that this project will help spread some more happiness and karma and even if you don't win any coins you are sure to feel better about yourself This is how it works-
Basically all you need to do is go out and do something nice for someone. It could be buying a homeless guy a sandwich, helping an old lady across the road or doing a sponsored charity run! Basically it could be anything you like! All you have to do is go out and help somebody out anyway you can and make a video or take a picture of what you have done. Either while you are doing it or afterwards just explaining what you have done.
We will run this project until September the 1st 2014 when we will decide on the winning videos/pictures. The winning video/picture will receive 200k of Banksycoin and 10 runners up will each receive 20k coins. The rules are flexible and the winners will be picked on the thought and kindness they put in to what they have done.
To enter this giveaway simply post your video or photo on twitter or Facebook and comment #banksycoin #karma

Please share this with as many people as possible and lets try and make the world that little bit better Wink

Well done to everyone who entered this challenge but the winner of the 200k coins is roslinpl with this video- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HzhP--ISvn4&feature=player_embedded

Well done

Look out for more giveaways in the coming weeks and our new website will be finished real soon so watch this space

Thanks! :-)

I hope that #Karma will come to all of us!

I am very impressed about the new Banksycoin Website.

It is amazing - great design - and this possibility to buy and sell art pieces is amazing and very well done!

This project is different that any of other altcoin project.

I see that Devs know good what they want to do and they are heading in the very right direction.

I am really amazed. I am here from day one - and I am very happy about that.

+1000 BanksyCoin Devs! Good job!

ok let's see how that works in the end.
i am interested to use it myself to sell artwork.

auctions would be another cool way to sell art.

maybe bidcoind who now accept banksycoin can be the middleman for live auctions - one could even arrange live events!

regarding galleries and bitcoin (or altcoins)
here is another examples how some artists chose to sell their art for crypto (bitcoin).
maybe there is something we could learn from this approach?

btw, should you live in austria and use the banksycoin platform to sell art and have to ship your artwork you could even hire kunsttrans a professional art shipping company who officially accept bitcoin!

edit: not only Austria they operate even in ...

Slovak Republic
Czech Republic
Romania
Ukraine, Belarus, Armenia, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Moldova
Bulgaria, Macedonia, Albania
Croatia, Slovenia, Bosnia
Serbia, Montenegro
Hungary

http://www.kunsttrans.com/en/kunsttrans-group

maybe they even would accept BSY? Tongue

what exactly are you changing? the rate of $0.03 ?
please some more details.

by the way i tested the new website, registered and made a test posting, so it is all wordpress based i see.

pro:
it looks good and seems to work.

con:
you have to run your text through a spellchecker at least once before you go public.
still too many typos!

Wink

Thanks for the input Wink

Yes we have decided we will let sellers choose there own rates or it will be unfair to artists..

I hope this helps..

Hey, I still like Banksycoin and I want to start a discussion about the selling of art with Banksycoin, now that the site is new and shiny

I think right now there is a problem that sellers should assume that 1 BSY is worth 0.03 USD, when it's actually worth 0.0002 - 0.0003. I think this diminishes the incentive for artists. I'm not good at art myself, but let's assume I was

If I wanted to sell a painting of mine and I'd like to sell it for 80 USD + 20 USD shipping. (material expenses 40 USD) Using 0.03 quote I would charge 3333 BSY for the painting including shipping.

Current exchange rate at bittrex:

Highest buy order: 0.00000031 BTC.
3333 x 0.00000031 BTC = 0.00103323 BTC = ~ 0.5 USD

So in the end I can't cover material costs or the real world shipping price. Even if I had no material expenses at all I'd lose almost 20 bucks for shipping. One could argue that BSY will be worth a lot more in the future, but if my only goal was to make money, I would then buy 150k Banksycoin for 40 bucks.

What do you think? Am I missing something? With the 0.03 USD rule artists would basically give their stuff away for free right now.

Hi,

Yes we are changing that...we are still working on site. you are right and we have decided against it. We will be announcing once all updates have been made as we are also adding an escrow system to protect users. Announcements coming soon

Yes I am a pirate, 300 years too late!

You would have to figure cost at the current exchange rate. I sold a piece of art for 100K BSY, by time I exchanged it to BTC I lost half.

still no pool going oh well can't stake either without new wallet, my wallet stopped syncing 2 days ago

I don't know why pool owners didn't set their pools yet - a mistake by them perhaps.

My wallet is synchronizing very well ...
Current block 306066

ps. I never did anything to the .conf file. I didn't add any nodes etc.

So I don't know why your wallet is not synchronizing ...

I suggest:
1.Make wallet backup.
2.Delete all BSYwallet data from roaming folder
3.Download latest version of the BSY wallet
4.Run it and redownload the blockchain.

didn't really have a problem till 2 days ago and sync didn't start on loading wallet so just waiting for website to get new wallet and do it all over.

5. check if the ports for banksycoin wallet are not blocked by your firewall.

i had to unblock it manually in my firewall by defining a new rule allowing the banksycoin-qt to connect and then it worked fine.
