Getting a job (not a Poll option)

yes paying people to dev a coin kind of defeats half the purpose of needing an alternative to fiat in the first place

But the funding can be used for purposes which may bring success to the coin in the long term
A *partial* ICO is called a "Premine"

I can tolerate a mined coin with a small premine far more than i can an IPO / ICO style coin.
If the premine is accounted for and documented well and we keep the coin holders feet to the fire.
Even then though we don't need *more* coins so it better be for a good reason..
(
because it will STILL be coin #7,001)
Have you considered contributing to an already existing coin or taking over a coin abandoned ?
I hear Jackpot Coin is hiring
Warning:Even if i like a person around here i still can NOT support their IPO / ICO ..sorry guys
