Topic: [DATACOIN] Brainstorming - Giveaway! (Read 9606 times)

how close is datacoin to getting on somewhere like cryptsy, seems well overdue.

im glad your in a good mood today maxsolnc, thank you.

Implement a BlockChain explorer into the DTC Client, and also come up with an integrated shortening service with will register as fileservice in windows. So if you klick  "dtc://WAu1pye" in IE or FF, it will be shown in the Datacoin Wallet Application or at least it can be downloaded there! That would be so awesome!

I just asked mumus if he can make a faucet. Let see if he answers positive...

@maxsolnc - Not comment about publishing CC/GPL book to a blockchain? I'm still trying to think of where such beast could be found... But if found it could be used to promote DTC too.

And:
Be carefull with dots, commas and language versions, this can differ from country to country. For example 100,000 = 100 (not mistake, "," is a decimal mark).

I am not very technical but...

1) do encrypted emails through Datacoin wallet
2) do a flashing video for Datacoin selling to the masses (offer it in a competition)
3) have you seen curecoin and Gridcoin and how their mining is used for research?
4) offer an encrypting tool on the datacoin wallet - so that a person can send a file to a receiver who can only open it with a datacoin wallet (wallet to wallet encryption)

Hope that's useful

Now to see any value of the coins you should go to the exchanges, would add great value in the wallet of Datacoin in dollars

Base faucet should be quite easy technically (just send some money to the wallet and then put up a form to disperse them).
But you should at least some anti-abuse measures (compination of sending only limited amount of times per ip per time interval, captcha, ...), otherwise bots may suck the faucet dry in mere minutes.

Perhaps logging to show how much was sent from the faucet may come in handy, to keep ledger with the funds. Once the amounts are low, you may also need to group the transactions o save on txfees.

I'm quite busy currently due to project deadline, but perhaps I'll whip up something useful next week.

Do you have any devs (or maybe yourself) who can start faucet? Of course it will be rewarded.

haha, cool

Ensure that mining is well understood and easy to set up even for the most newbie in the crypto business and the coin will sky rocket

Starting a faucet might be good. That is always attractive for beginners.

Considering the relatively high cost of storing data in the chain and the fact that there are several cloud service offering few gigabytes of free space (but they can close your account, someone can hack the account ... so may not be so secure, though "good enough" for most people), the storage needs to be specialized.

One idea could be sort of connecting/interacting with tor, providing sort of DNS for TOR hidden services (mapping from some nice names to hidden service names abcdefghijkl.onion), or even normal services (IPv4/IPv6's) for countries with less favorable censorship laws.

It would work by storing special packet with DNS record, signed by private wallet key (it may be implicitly signed by the coin sender, but this may not be always what is wanted, for example if transaction is paid from some web wallet service or someone else).
Updates to DNS would mean republishing a new DNS record to replace the old one. It has to be signed by the same private key.

Optionally, the DNS record could also list wallet addresses (thereby defining private keys that can sign it), that can also update the records (i.e. create replacement records) for that domain - if such records are present, then management of the domain can be delegated to other people. Possibly it could be possible to delegate only part of a subdomain, like only "mail" subdomain to someone else.

So for example, if my address is DJEM5aC9TpuNf1SShV5ESdExKu2nGQH7sP and I want to register domain "singula.data" pointing to some hidden service in TOR, the record could look like:
... and the whole will be signed by my private key (private key for my address DJEM5aC9TpuNf1SShV5ESdExKu2nGQH7sP)

Simple records would likely would fit into 1 Kb with the signature, so the cost would be 0.1 DTC

When resolving, you must unfortunately go from first block, find first record, then move up to see if there are replacement records and if they are correctly signed. Though you have to do the same for ordinary transactions

Domain records are short, so it would not cost a fortune to put these records in the blockchain (though unlike traditional DNS, you have to pay for updates) and may be a nice alternative to traditional DNS.

hmmm, Well i am not too good at ideas. And honestly i am still pretty new to this crypto coin shit..
but something i would like to see out of a coin like this. Would be to team up with a cloud site.

Trade DTC for time on a cloud site = mine DTC with their cpu. ( you could mine anything but just staying DTC). There are alot of cpu coins lately.

More and more people are wanting Cloud service. So if they can use DTC for cloud time. Would bring up the price. And would
make DTC wanted outside the average crypto groups.

Honestly remember, I don't know what you are looking for in ideas. Just my thought. I can't mine this with my laptop. And if i remember this coin is about data storage. And using cloud hold your cpu miners is kinda like that right?

How about a website that gives away small amount of DTC for clicking on adds. The giveaway would be financed by the adds revenues, and that would distribute the stakes of datacoin on more people.

Add a new tab to the client named "file browser" where you can see all the files uploaded and you can upload files. And for the name support add an other db file and an online blockchain will be used so the client not have to download the chain (for saving space). And add "Private messages" option to send message to a selected people.

You should make bounties for people to make youtube videos on how to get data coin, sell data coin, the facts behind data coin, and just some good info and support videos for those who are just getting started I think it would grow interest and increase the knowledge of current data coin users.

This is a simple idea, but I think necessary.

missing "," no currency in their wallets that implements

example: 25000000.325, is easy to make mistakes with many zeros
