Invitation Only
This first release will not include the BP cryptocurrency so Initially there will be no fees for posting, and voting on posts. Since it is a very simple process to generate a new passphrase/account, and only basic moderation functionality will be available during the initial release, alias registration will be available on an invitation only bases. only accounts that have an alias registered will be able to post, comment, and vote. The Invitation process is necessary to limit vote manipulation and SPAM until more advanced moderation tools are developed, and implemented into the site.
