Most of the threads like this are posted on Speculations (Altcoins).

thanks for the clarification,  
MODS: Can you move this if you think that's a better place?
You can do it alone, at the bottom left there's the button "Move topic".



I wouldn't categorize this as speculation. Opinions about the dev are opinions... but the number of masternodes owned by lead dev is fact based on public blockchain data. But I'm not a mod, so I don't the history of the forum and what's best.

Oh I'm aware God still loves me. I just want others to know what kind of person he is. I don't see a "Godly" man going around threatening to label others as "satanists" simply because they disagree with him or dislike some of the behavior he may have been a part of...

If the team membership requirement was removed, I would return. However, I have a strong sense of dedication to my team and will not switch simply because HE is mimicing Gridcoins marketing success. However, what he should be watching it Byteballs success without NEEDING to require the team membership.

The current vote is in favor of lifting the requirement (although that is heavily weighed by Rob's majority of normally voting masternodes), and the forum poll is in favor of mimicing Byteball and giving members of Team Biblepay full reward and all others a smaller percentage reward (although Byteball prefers to call their team membership a bonus...it's all the same in the end).

The problem is Gridcoin is in the blacklist to prevent "abuse" per Rob

I gave up on this coin when the lead dev (Rob) threatened to label me a satanist because I had a difference in opinion. He also thinks he ran a "successful" BOINC project in the past. In his eyes it may have been "successful". In the eyes of the BOINC community it was poorly ran and never addressed some major issues it had. An example is hard coding the BOINC data directory into your app. This is unnecessary as the BOINC client handles this. Many BOINC users deliberately move the data directory elsewhere to avoid things like apps taking too much storage or too much IO usage on the primary disk. His app was buggy and would balloon on multiple hosts with different OS's. I saw it multiple times taking up several GB's of space which it would not release without manually deleting. He refused to fix the issues the project had. And he tried to punish those that spoke out. One of the worst projects I ever contributed to and I've supported well over 100 of them.  

I personally do not trust him.

I'm sorry that happened to you. His attitude towards some of us has caused a lot of anger, sadness, and some division. I hope you know that God loves you whether you are a Christian or not and that we are sticking around to see more people in need be helped.

Could it be that the pre-selling is partly because Compassion has to be paid before a certain date each month and the superblock has some variation in terms of it's date?

Yes, I believe this is true. Being that months in the year is anywhere between 28 to 31 days, I can see the Compassion sponsorship and monthly distribution will have flux.

You can still sell BBP after you receive it without ever involving your personal wallet addresses. You can also build a buffer like BiblePay has already done with Compassion. The buffer is there so you have some wiggle room for BBP volatility, and other external factors such as monthly superblocks and # of days in a month change.

I want to be clear that even though Rob makes it personal, I've never insulted in personally. I only criticize the process and wish to bring more people to BiblePay by having a process newcomers can understand and trust. Rob's a brilliant guy. I wish he made an effort to receive criticism with an open heart and play nicely with others.

I support the coin and Rob too, but motive on pre-selling is not an excuse for:

1) Lack of disclosure
2) Insults when questioned about something so vital to the mission of the coin

I personally believe Rob did not financially benefit from this and did this in the best interest of the charitable funds that were raised, but there needs to be far more disclosure for the community at large to take us seriously.  It's small incidents like this that make it more understandable why we're viewed by some critics as a scam coin.  However, I do believe the records support our charitable expenditures and the critics are incorrect, but any ammunition for them such as this is not good.

He said on the BBP forum that it was because of price.

I went ahead and cross posted it here since I know there's a good chance this will be deleted by Rob A.

The webarchive version is here: http://web.archive.org/web/20180917003051/https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2388064.10200

I never comingled a penny of orphanage funds.

Perhaps we have different definitions. If you receive 8.6M to BB2 then send it to your BD7, this technically is sending payment to Orphan Foundation. But this is just one step away to commingling with personal funds.

https://explorer.biblepay-central.org/tx/f9fd0a104f0df35b6f40d2a4c153b6875ab28c34b9df83ea57797c7a7a655fb5

On Aug 31, 8.6M was disbursed. On Sep 8, you moved them to BD7. Along with 70+ inputs that are you masternodes, you went ahead and created several more masternodes from those funds.

#1 No one asked you pre-sell BBP.
#2 No one asked you break apart your masternodes

If keep a separate wallet exclusively for Compassion funding and don't mix it with your personal BBP, that's the cleanest way for people to perceive there's nothing shady going on.

For those with masternodes:
YOUR VOTE COUNTS.

Currently Rob(aka biblepay) seems to have 84 ACTIVE masternodes he votes with.  

With these numbers, he controls roughly 1/3 the ACTIVE masternodes and 2/3 of the VOTING masternodes.


As of today he has effectively wiped out the "NO" votes for the team requirement proposal.

Please participate, just like anything your vote matters.

 Total Votes: 120  Votes Yes: 78 No : 40 Final: 38

Thanks t-Mike..

For those who have felt censored this is a more open forum.  

this is not an "OFFICIAL" thread, but it's started/run by folks who care about the coin and having real discussions that cannot take place in the official thread.

Welcome, feel free to post what you think about Biblepay here.

Moderators, please let me know if this is the right place for a community discussion thread separate from the announcement thread. We need a place where we can speak freely. Thanks.

*EDIT*
Moderators: Someone down below mentioned that this should be in the Speculations (Altcoins) section, if you think that's right, please move us there if possible without deleting the content. Thank you.
