OP is suggesting a coin with practical uses o. This platform, or maybe integrate bitcoins into the system,  well considering that BTC is used to pay for evil IP, buy copper membership, make donations if is in a way the tokens coin.

hmmm..not a good idea. There will be too much issues and complication. Bitcointalk is one of the oldest and biggest online forum in the web and no one owns this. There will be war between pioneer and old members here as to who will manage the "business" and members (from newbies to heroes/legendary)  will be much demanding since there will be fees and they know admin and moderator are earning from activities here so it will be totally fiasco.

And do you think, members here will just let Theymos or any member here handle the business knowing it can (and absolutely will) earn substantial income? Nope. So it's a bad idea. As you know, things are different when money involve.

I still don't want to even consider this type of token. Aside from the fact that it is useless it is just a waste of time

Dev instead should focus on more crucial matters such as eliminating bots completely out from the community. I mean budgets should go to the security of this forum. Since it has happen already a couple of times that there were data breaches

Wait, kinda confuse..I always thought bitcointalk was created during bitcoin development so technically bitcoin is official coin of bitcointalk so why the need of creating bitcointalk token/coin when we already have one?!

You're right.
Bitcointalk is not backed or fueled by any token or coin.
Yes, it is part of the bitcoin development and was launched to grow and create a community of people interested in bitcoin's development.

There already is one that was created a long time ago but it didn't end well, just another shitcoin wasting away. If done properly under the guidance of theymos it could have been a high cmc listed coin

I am quite surprised this thread has been going on for 4 pages now, while it should have been redirected to the "Wall of fame / shame. Shit posts so bad that they are actually funny" thread immediately.
You are right but in my opinion may be the thread is allowed to go on because of it relevance to educating newbies who really don't have knowledge of bitcointalk as a forum, e.g it purpose and origin and may be thinking since it a big forum for bitcoin and the entire cryptocurrency discussion it should develop a new token not knowing that bitcointalk  was primarily developed to serve as a discussion room for the development and promotions of bitcoin as a network all other altcoins discussions are just secondary.

Yah, I kinda think that would be noble. At least even if it's some kind of compensation for the community before it gets listed like what cryptotalksword ( a rival forum) is doing. It won't be a bad idea if BTT imitates that.

Ahhm, if we create our own then we should not call it "Bitcointalk" .org anymore. That defeat the sole purpose to why this forum was created in the first place. Aside from that this coin that might be added is for sure just going to be on the list of all shitcoins.

Who will support it? probably less than 10% of the BTT population (it includes devs and who voted that this might be a good idea). Badges are enough as an appreciation to those who contributed but a new coin is pointless IMO

1 - not at all correlated to being smart
2 - it is quite centralised the top 0.02% merit holders internally trade over 50% of their merits
3 - not a strong correlation to quality. Who you align yourself with and where you post is much more influential

Merit is useful to the board but it don't think i would like to see a coin distributed in this way.

Pretty sure that was a joke from ias.

However, I think there's also an infinite supply issue too as theymos can make as many as he want Grin. You're also not allowed to sell the coin and a lot of those types of coins are scams.

What's wrong with the merit (coin)?

- It's free (if you are smart enough)
- It's decentralized ( except that it's controlled by theymos but and he can reverse transactions )
- It's PoW, you have to post quality stuff to get be rewarded and you are constantly monitored by the others in the pool if you try to cheat.
- You can sent to everyone (following the specific protocol )
- There was an Airdrop in the begging but some people have missed it.
- You can actually trade it (it's not recommend as you may got tagged, but it's possible) for real money Cheesy

Why you need another coin??
 

1 - not at all correlated to being smart
2 - it is quite centralised the top 0.02% merit holders internally trade over 50% of their merits

Never clicked any of the links, as I thought that his account was compromised.

I have seen that announcement pretty late. The ICO should have ended, but the timer was (is!) still running.
It writes "invest until June 15 for 25% discount", it's almost December and the button is active.
Just click the Buy now button. No virus, nothing compromised. It's actually a great initiative to promote "read before you buy" and "if it's too good to be true, probably is a scam".
For the lazy ones, it goes to this website at the end, website that I think it's owned by SEC.

I saw it in the very begging. I knew theymos wont support any ICOs, he already had the restriction for them to advertise on the forum, suddenly he posts a shitcoin ICO and pinned it on the top in the Ann section. There was something really fishy, and no matter how much I trust theymos I did't have the courage to click any of those links.
Later when I got his message from theymos_away, then I went trough the site.
No doubt it is a really good example for the newbies, how to stay on the safe side and not being scammed.

Bitcointalk launching it's own coin would be stupid.  This site is here to promote Bitcoin!  You wouldn't even be able to discuss the "bitcointalkcoin" on a majority of the forum if it were it's own coin.
Yeah many know about this but OP seeing something for the forum. This is a lot of money if it will be realized so which means that the coin to be launched is not all about the utilization but for the crowd's fund to be used and invested. Just like bitcoin now that started to low value up to now that has high value.

I think that any new coins now need to have a unique function, and I'm not sure what that could be for a BT coin.
I think all the coins on the market, including bitcoin, can satisfy a lot of unique functions and needs at this point.  The way I see it is that there are way, way too many altcoins in existence and most of them are never going to be used for what they were originally promoted for.  I see this happening in the ICO market constantly--if the new coin isn't an outright scam, it's not going to ever get adopted by, and certainly won't revolutionize [insert industry here].

So no, I don't think bitcointalk needs its own special coin like Reddit supporters thought they needed a special coin like RDD.  That one turned out to be one hell of a smelly skunk and lost a lot of people a lot of money, I'm sure.  The gambling industry doesn't need coins like RBIES (or whatever the hell that coin was named) to function any better than it can with bitcoin, and bitcointalk won't be made any better with its own shitcoin.  This is bitcointalk, and we don't need it to turn into bitcoincointalk.

I think Bitcointalk forum has already owned coin, and that is Bitcoin. Because when Satoshi founded Bitcoin this forum also was made by Satoshi that talks related Bitcoin and other cryptos. (IMO)
Probably that is very interesting if ever happen but make it sure that coin is must supported with Bitcoin, not on ERC20, most likely ICO now base on ERC20.
You say my thought. The coin of Bitcointalk is Bitcoin, Satoshi created this forum for Bitcoin discussion, i was not here in the first days but i think at that days they only talked about Bitcoin here, altcoins added later. Because at first there was only one cryptocurrency, it's Bitcoin.

Bitcoin talk forum is just a forum that discus about bitcoin and cryptocurrency related topics although there also another discussion on the forum.

Like the name bitcointalk implies it have a strong affinity with bitcoin and bitcoin on the other hand is a coin(the most valuable coin) even satoshi the creator of bitcoin is also the founder of the forum

The bad news is that Bitcointalkcoin(.)org is taken and the com was also registered for a brief period.
Was there some ICO with that domain involved?  Angry

I guess I don't see much of a problem with adding just 1more shitcoin to pile.

So....you think that all the bright minds here on this forum wouldn't be capable of creating anything else than a shitcoin?  Cheesy


No, not at all. Some of the bright minds here are busy building up a legit project...
Though it seems a vast amount of the bright minds tend to occupy themselves making shit-coins.

I've heard rumors that people who have recently been banned for plagiarism are planning to fork Bitcoin and get their own chain called:

Carry a Signature SV (SV stands for 'shitposting violator')

users should
spam.

Satoshi's Vision!
I think the first person to use this argument to have their ban lifted should automatically get unbanned.



I think this actually would be a good idea, perhaps for things like captcha bypasses, and the ability to rank up and/or the ability to wear (better) signatures. The purpose of using it instead of using Bitcoin would be so that micropayments can be used without bloating the blockchain.

I agree that bitcointalk launching a coin Would be stupid.

However, it's possible to launch a coin that supports BTC.

For example, Omni allow coins to be created over  the Bitcoin blockchain. That's a way to support Bitcoin. You don't need to create erc20 or any other blockchain

I shall continue hodling my eth and ltc. tbf, ltc might as well be any of the other altcoins.

At least eth added something to the blockchain with smart contracts.

LTC has an infinite amount that can be credited to users who mine doesn't it? I mean it'll still halve but it can go down to 1 litoshi as far as I am aware. It also uses the scrypt algorithm like dogecoin (just makes it harder to mine with an asic for bitcoin)...

And ltc and eth follow the same sort of pattern so I don't think there's much point in hodling it unless it's part of a bigger strategy.

Bitcointalk already have an existing coin which is the bitcoin it self, if you have not taken the time to read the brain behind bitcointalk forum well according to the information the forum was created by Santoshi Nakamoto him self and about the same time or period with the creation of bitcoin. Asking bitcointalk to created another coin of it own has no relevance instead we as a community will keep developing on the existing foundation which is bitcoin.

But, in all seriousness, the name of bitcointalkcoin is a bit rediculous. And since bitcointak was made by satoshi, we do have our own coin, it's called bitcoin and it's the best coin out there.

unbelievable that people can write but they can't read (or they just don't like to read Cheesy )

I was surprised too but for Good project some users got merit in the very beginning i don't think you gonna get in trouble for hype-ing it.I actually thought that theymos' account was hacked and I open a thread in meta, but I got confirmation from themos_away that it was a "real deal" only for to give a lesson to the newbies.

Spammers could buy merit coins so they could rank up while shitposting. Lol

Bitcointalk doesn't need a coin. It's a forum to discuss a technology

But they are already buying it. Well it's another thing that we catch them and they get banned or get painted in red but they still do it. So merit has most of the characteristics of the other tokens/coins and it's much more successful than 99% of the shitcoins listed in the Ann section every day.

There is two Bitcointalk coin  Grin  BTALK and BTT But its only for fun.
Disclaim: Bitcointalk Token was created for fun and not affiliated with Bitcointalk Forum.

However I think topic has discussed previously. I don't think Bitcointalk should create new coin. Its is already base on bitcoin so there is no question about new coin. If create in case, it will be shitcoin because this is Bitcoin community. This forum was build for spread the word about bitcoin. But in future I don't know if someone make fork from bitcoin by using Bitcointalk ticker. But for fork there should be miner community and should be allow by admin.

IMO, no. Unless a blockchain would solve a problem. I think a lot of business created their own crypto for no reason other than to make one. The database will handle merit better. Also, we wouldn't want to create a secondary market for it. Also, these coins are the "sh%t coins" we should shun as a community. This pretty much sums up my views:

https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/7kaoqb/i_am_having_a_hard_time_understanding_why_nearly/

Oddly enough, when researching useless coins I found very little info. Most of the info is on ICO evaluations and ICO related topics. Most likely, this is due to the fact that that is where the money is in 2017. People generating large funding for ideas with lots of keywords and promises.

Well it could be possible for bitcontalk.org to have coin. The utility of the coin could be integrated to escrowing services for the better service to be arranged in the market place. This is just my opininion because I do not like some of the escrow service of some users who provided it because some of them are scam so we have to secure the transactions using bitcointalk.org coin as an escrow service provider.

Though, it should probably be over-the-top with cool features -  like a mining, staking, masternode extravaganza

I've heard rumors that people who have recently been banned for plagiarism are planning to fork Bitcoin and get their own chain called:

Carry a Signature SV (SV stands for 'shitposting violator')

What's wrong with the merit (coin)?

- It's free (if you are smart enough)
- It's decentralized ( except that it's controlled by theymos but and he can reverse transactions )
- It's PoW, you have to post quality stuff to get be rewarded and you are constantly monitored by the others in the pool if you try to cheat.
- You can sent to everyone (following the specific protocol )
- There was an Airdrop in the begging but some people have missed it.
- You can actually trade it (it's not recommend as you may got tagged, but it's possible) for real money Cheesy

Why you need another coin??

Well the @theymos has experience endorsing “ICOs” (see [ANN][ICO]HoweyCoins: the only BitcoinTalk-endorsed ICO - GUARANTEED PROFIT), and by reading the thread it looks like there would be no shortage of demand by a Bitcointalk endorsed and also developed coin … it wouldn’t even need a purpose (although on a serious note, there would be none that I can think of) …

Hi Bad do you know which one? never seen a project like bitcointalkcoin, it would be nice to have one project made by all bitcointalk moderators!

I've been playing with the concept for some time, but have never really been serious about any coins. Jet Cash (JetCash.com) has been a private payment service of mine since 2002, but it has never had a coin associated with it. I'm just putting together Assured Coin , but that is not intended to be a general use coin, but will be used to trade shares in my Crypto Coin Tree investment club project. This is still in it's formative stages.

As I stated earlier, I believe that a new coin has to have a defined purpose, and registering shareholdings is certainly a suitable purpose.

What do you think guys ? should  bitcointalk make their own bitcointalk coin? would it be possibile? and give it for all member ? thanks for all your answer!

What would be the reason for it's existence? Is it to improve upon the merit system?

Because people always want something for free.

I think that if bitcointalk draws its own currency, it would be a mega project, with great success, it has a large number of users who will surely be part of the project. Without hesitation if he would buy the coins.

Ok. I got curious. I thought somebody would actually mention the name if there was one.

Even if they probably did I talk about an official coin sponsored by all the moderators of bitcointalk, I think it would be a great success anyway.

Some of the bitcointalk.org people have probably done it already. But quietly, so that it doesn't interfere with Bitcointalk operations.

Cool

Sure don't. But plenty of people in here, especially theymos, have the ability.

I think that any new coins now need to have a unique function, and I'm not sure what that could be for a BT coin.

One function could be the recording of shares in an investment club for example. This would allow members to sell part of their investment, without the club having to sell anything.


well scamming person A and B is different from scaming just B or Just A or B, or if you create a coin to scam person C and A, so under that pretext every new coin is in its way unique. it doesnt has to be "special" uniques comes with the audience.

Thanks jet for your intervening, could the new bitcointalk coin be used to associate its blockchain account? would it be useless? I do not say that it must necessarily have a price or be put on exchange.
