Bitmark will thrive by having businesses grow out of, and having value, because of
its value.
I think it's great! To sow the seeds and nuture a business, an idea, an organisation, that others perceive to be of sufficient 'worth' to consider (so soon) potential off-shoot businesses / services - is this not a great compliment?!
Forwards >>> !
To have people already planning new businesses and organizations on the back of GetMarked, which is just a single part of Project Bitmark, will surely enhance the value proposition to both users and existing businesses alike.
Things are moving fast on this little thread.
I am sorry to do this but I must bring this back up:
I started defining an unnamed project on this thread exactly 1 month ago today. What is achievable in a single month is clear to see.
To do the same thing for GetMarked and have it adopted and being actively used by non crypto web citizens can be achieved by this date next month.
To balance my families needs, paid work, and bitmark is nearly impossible. To balance all of that and getmarked is impossible.
If I can replace the paid work for clients with a funding/investment to create getmarked, then balance is restored and even more than the last month is achievable.
6 BTC would cover my families needs, all project resources, enable some tips to those helping.
2 BTC would provide a reasonable amount of BTM as investment to those who invested.
After a month we would have bitmark a month more mature, and getmarked beginning to be adopted and used.
The work on bitmark and getmarked will continue with or without this, I do not want to loose our momentum or burn out.
Any future adoption focused side projects would be proposed by me or others, and considered at that time. Some may take a few hours, or some a few weeks, many will fall out naturally and with no cost incurred, others may need some financial commitment in order to be completed.
Taking this transparent approach is fairer, less expensive, less risk, and more guaranteed than anything like IPO, as if getmarked is not of merit and does not earn value then any subsequent proposal would be rejected by any potential investors.
I look forward to our status in one years time, for then the bitmark foundation will cover funding for anything the community decides is worth doing.
There is an 8 BTC investment opportunity in GetMarked and Bitmark, which will enable me to keep up with our earned momentum for a month or more, pay for resources required, and provide a fair amount of Bitmarks to any investors, whilst reasonably securing their investment.
If any one has interest do speak up.
