Thanks, Brandon. I think all your statements are very true. This is our turn, as a community, let's see how we can fine tune our message and get words out.We can use a few objective and unbiased articles addressing relevant issues.

"We can use a few objective and unbiased articles addressing relevant issues."

Could you please elaborate on this a bit so everyone is clear? There may be someone in the community that could help out by contributing an article. Smiley

Are the articles for the promotion of DNotes? Or, does the "objective and unbiased" mean the article is 'coinless'? In "addressing relevant issues", are you looking for material on issues that DNotes 2.0 will address? Any specific issues or ideas?

Thanks, Chase. I left it open-ended on purpose. I had a conversation with Joe on this subject earlier. He will be coordinating to encourage our community to start working on a list of subject matters to cover - using multiple print media and social media platforms. This should include articles for DCEBrief, DNotesEDU, LiknedIn, Blog Posts, Facebook and other social media. Additionally, we will be issuing press releases 2 to 4 times a month beginning in January. I envision that we will have a press release update on each of our ecosystem, as well as our family of CRISPs. They are all just as relevant today; in fact even more so. This is the time we need our community to pitch in the most. Free free to share any ideas you may have. Thanks.

I have a few ideas for the list of articles and other material that the community could help with:

For DNotesEDU:

1. We all know how time consuming it is when the same questions get asked over and over on the forum. We can have a Frequently Asked Questions about DNotes, on the DNotesEDU page, and steer people there for answers. It would be really appreciated if someone could help round up all the important DNotes questions (and the best answers that have been given) from the forum. We can also add any other potential questions that we think will arise with DNotes.

2. Educational material on the following subjects: cryptocurrency in general (unbiased and with no specific coin mentioned), bitcoin, DNotes, or blockchain
    - Since this is for educational purposes, it needs to be easily understood by beginners.
    - Educational posts, articles, steps, infographics, short videos (?), easy to follow how-to guides, etc
    - Social media sized images for DNotes or DNotes properties that can be shared - info, facts, charts (ie. comparing POW and POS, benefits of_____(something DNotes related), etc.
    - The easiest ways to buy bitcoin in _________(your city, state, province, or country). Make it simple enough that a beginner can follow it without help. Later on, we can do this for DNotes.

Article Ideas anyone??  Smiley




1. That is a fantastic idea!

We can come up with a list from support emails as well.

2. ICO research is a good topic I think. What exactly are you investing in? Did you read the details of the sale? How to find out more? Where to find information?

Proposed EU Rules Include New Requirements for Crypto Exchanges

https://dcebrief.com/proposed-eu-rules-include-new-requirements-for-crypto-exchanges/


https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2017/dec/04/bitcoin-uk-eu-plan-cryptocurrency-price-traders-anonymity

The rules are expected to come into effect in the next few months. The Treasury said digital currencies could be used to enable and facilitate cybercrime. It added: “There is little current evidence of them being used to launder money, though this risk is expected to grow.”



As the value of Bitcoin and digital currencies continued to increase at break-neck pace, governments around the world will want to regulate them like money, regardless of how they labeled them. Perhaps any single transaction valued $10,000 or more will trigger some reporting. I hope that they will leave the lower threshold alone. 


I agree that $10,000 dollar single transactions are a good baseline for comprehensive reporting (perhaps adjusted for inflation/deflation going forward). Going after the lower threshold will place additional strain on government resources, dumping extra burden on taxpayers who are funding these watchdog agencies. Although the majority of this process can be automated by using the blockchain API with the agencies software, human analysts will still be required to make sense of the data in a lot of cases.

Wow, you guys are really stepping up for me. Great discussions. Thank you.

The commitments have been made. We are now actively working on our funding using Reg. A+ mini IPO Title IV Tire 2 to raise up to $50 million from accredited and non-accredited investors worldwide next year. This is a big project that need a lot of professional involvement, making it quite expensive. Accordingly, we are considering offering a Reg. D 506 (c), available only to accredited investors to fund the mini IPO. This is a common strategy and encouraged by the SEC.  

I am extremely busy focusing on the most critical issues and getting the most important things going as quickly as possible. We have already retained the services of Laura Anthony of Legal & Compliance, LCC and I will be selecting an accounting and PCAOB auditing compliance firm next week.

Joe and I have been combing the entire Chicagoland area in search of the best software development team to work with us. We will be interviewing several companies that have expressed a strong interest. We are also planning to hire one or more qualified software engineers as part of our expansion project.

Yes, we are totally committed to making DNotes a technology leader. This is a multiyear project aimed at creating a fully integrated ecosystem most favorable for mainstream acceptance of DNotes. Our priority is to launch DNotes 2.0, migrating from Proof of Work to Proof of Stake. Following that multiple projects will be initiated to work in parallel with strong emphasis to support NextGenVC and our clients.  

NextGenVC’s core mission is to assist early growth stage, and established companies with great growth potential but constrained by other issues. NextGenVC has multiple missions: raise adequate funding to solve multiple deficiencies; introduce clients to digital currency and blockchain technologies; revitalize corporate culture and more by the book “Improve Your Odds – The Four Pillars of Business Success.”

DNotes is uniquely different. It is more than a digital currency but a complete system with many critical parts. I can not solve any of the Bitcoin problems as they are, but I am confident that, having been built from the ground up over the last four years, DNotes will solve most of the problems inherent to Bitcoin and other digital currencies. DNotes will prevail because of our clearly articulated vision and relentless commitments. It has not been easy to understand the DNotes' business model, but it wouldn't be long. Many other parts are coming together to form a clear picture by early next year.  


That's great news to hear that things are moving forward. I'm not an accredited investor, but definitely would like to participate in the mini IPO, so please keep me in the loop as that gets closer to launching.

Certainly. We will be keeping everyone in the loop. Our philosophy has always been to make DNotes accessible to anyone worldwide to participate. Our mini IPO will make it possible for us to legally reach-out to accredited and non-accredited investors worldwide. We will be filling a registration statement with the SEC early next year. It typically takes 4 to 5 months to be "qualified" under SEC rules. We can start our promotions earlier but can only accept any investment after we are qualified.

There is virtually no barrier for anyone to participate in the DNotes project. We are making it possible for investors to have the best of both worlds; at liberty to participate in one or both - DNotes or DNotes Global shares, or both. Today one can invest $20 to purchase 1,000 DNotes on one the exchanges that lists DNotes. Once qualified by the SEC the same investor can purchase $200 of DNotes Global, Inc. shares at the same fixed price for everyone irrespective of the size of the investment. And every DNotes investor owns some amount of DNotes Global, Inc. This could be the best model for retail investors who are normally left out.

Alan this was truly amazing foresight. You have positioned DNotes to be a currency on the straight and narrow, in an industry full of scoundrels who are soon in for an unanticipated uphill battle vs the long arm of the law; and this was accomplished while still retaining DNotes' ability to adopt the most useful and innovative technology. I think a big part of the reason why some people in and out of our industry may not be realizing how starkly different DNotes is from the everyday cryptocurrency, is because there are so many moving parts that are still highly imperceptible to the untrained eye.

Thank you Alan, the team at DNotesEDU is working very hard on new content to be released around the time of DNotes 2.0 launch. Help from our supporters is greatly appreciated! There will be some highly fulfilling positions available at DNotesEDU for suitable candidates in the not too distant future, and preference will be given to those who have already begun to develop a working relationship with DNotesEDU.

Thank you, DNotesEDU. We are very fortunate to have your support and deeply appreciate your valuable contributions in many ways. Feel free to let me know if there is anything that I can be of help.

In 2018 we will certainly take you up on that offer, as our program expands your guidance will be crucial.

Apologies in advance, and, I hate to bring it up again but, any idea what is going on with DNotespool? Been days now without a payout, lots of errors, etc. I have a LOT of DNotes trapped there at the moment, just a bit concerned. I moved my hash elsewhere until it gets sorted but would like to know where this is going... Thx

No need to apologize. I know he's been struggling with it. I'll get an update.

RJF, would you give it a whirl now and let us know if it's working for you?

This is a big project that need a lot of professional involvement, making it quite expensive. Accordingly, we are considering offering a Reg. D 506 (c), available only to accredited investors to fund the mini IPO. This is a common strategy and encouraged by the SEC.  

I am extremely busy focusing on the most critical issues and getting the most important things going as quickly as possible. We have already retained the services of Laura Anthony of Legal & Compliance, LCC and I will be selecting an accounting and PCAOB auditing compliance firm next week.

Joe and I have been combing the entire Chicagoland area in search of the best software development team to work with us. We will be interviewing several companies that have expressed a strong interest. We are also planning to hire one or more qualified software engineers as part of our expansion project.

Yes, we are totally committed to making DNotes a technology leader. This is a multiyear project aimed at creating a fully integrated ecosystem most favorable for mainstream acceptance of DNotes. Our priority is to launch DNotes 2.0, migrating from Proof of Work to Proof of Stake. Following that multiple projects will be initiated to work in parallel with strong emphasis to support NextGenVC and our clients.  

NextGenVC’s core mission is to assist early growth stage, and established companies with great growth potential but constrained by other issues. NextGenVC has multiple missions: raise adequate funding to solve multiple deficiencies; introduce clients to digital currency and blockchain technologies; revitalize corporate culture and more by the book “Improve Your Odds – The Four Pillars of Business Success.”

DNotes is uniquely different. It is more than a digital currency but a complete system with many critical parts. I can not solve any of the Bitcoin problems as they are, but I am confident that, having been built from the ground up over the last four years, DNotes will solve most of the problems inherent to Bitcoin and other digital currencies. DNotes will prevail because of our clearly articulated vision and relentless commitments. It has not been easy to understand the DNotes' business model, but it wouldn't be long. Many other parts are coming together to form a clear picture by early next year.  


That's great news to hear that things are moving forward. I'm not an accredited investor, but definitely would like to participate in the mini IPO, so please keep me in the loop as that gets closer to launching.

Certainly. We will be keeping everyone in the loop. Our philosophy has always been to make DNotes accessible to anyone worldwide to participate. Our mini IPO will make it possible for us to legally reach-out to accredited and non-accredited investors worldwide. We will be filling a registration statement with the SEC early next year. It typically takes 4 to 5 months to be "qualified" under SEC rules. We can start our promotions earlier but can only accept any investment after we are qualified.

There is virtually no barrier for anyone to participate in the DNotes project. We are making it possible for investors to have the best of both worlds; at liberty to participate in one or both - DNotes or DNotes Global shares, or both. Today one can invest $20 to purchase 1,000 DNotes on one the exchanges that lists DNotes. Once qualified by the SEC the same investor can purchase $200 of DNotes Global, Inc. shares at the same fixed price for everyone irrespective of the size of the investment. And every DNotes investor owns some amount of DNotes Global, Inc. This could be the best model for retail investors who are normally left out.

Alan this was truly amazing foresight. You have positioned DNotes to be a currency on the straight and narrow, in an industry full of scoundrels who are soon in for an unanticipated uphill battle vs the long arm of the law; and this was accomplished while still retaining DNotes' ability to adopt the most useful and innovative technology. I think a big part of the reason why some people in and out of our industry may not be realizing how starkly different DNotes is from the everyday cryptocurrency, is because there are so many moving parts that are still highly imperceptible to the untrained eye.

Thanks, Brandon. I think all your statements are very true. This is our turn, as a community, let's see how we can fine tune our message and get words out.We can use a few objective and unbiased articles addressing relevant issues.


"We can use a few objective and unbiased articles addressing relevant issues."

Could you please elaborate on this a bit so everyone is clear? There may be someone in the community that could help out by contributing an article. Smiley

Are the articles for the promotion of DNotes? Or, does the "objective and unbiased" mean the article is 'coinless'? In "addressing relevant issues", are you looking for material on issues that DNotes 2.0 will address? Any specific issues or ideas?

"You raise an excellent point here. I'd never actually connected the emerging Bitcoin derivative market with its high transaction fees." That is a really good point. The current futures market itself doesn't have bitcoin transactions, but this is just the beginning of long stream of cryptocurrency related financial products coming to market. There may also be bitcoin futures contracts taken out by those that are perhaps hedging their bitcoin holdings, or want some exposure to it and for one reason or another can't hold it themselves... yet. When these derivatives and other financial products start holding these currencies, the volume of transactions will go through the roof.

The futures market is an expensive place for speculation, with the price of one contract (Cboe) equal to the current value of bitcoin (CME Group's contract is equal to 5 bitcoin). With a 44% margin, and margin calls if the price goes down, it is out of the affordability picture for most people. Things will settle down with more competition and the possible addition of mini-contracts. When products resembling mutual funds arrive on the scene, I think we will finally see true mainstream adoption. Smiley

More futures trading is arriving:

"TD Ameritrade, the largest futures operation of any online brokerage, is going to allow bitcoin futures trading on its platform starting Monday."

I always laugh when I learn about all those Bitcoin related financial products that I can't afford to get into if I wanted to, especially when I realize those products are built on the activities of people just like me over the past eight years. After all the ways that cryptos have made me richer, I'm still priced out of so many crypto-related financial products coming on the scene. It's just weird.

Just be patience. You may get what you are asking for. Then you can write a book, "How I made my first $1 million in the crypto world to become an Accredited Investor." Need a Co-author??? LOL.

I don't know if anyone has noticed this, but a few particular corporate news outlets have been spamming the same Bitcoin news articles, re-releasing them several times an hour, for days on end. It appears as though Google has picked up on this activity and is now penalizing these news outlets by downgrading their search ranking on all Bitcoin content, as the content in question is nowhere to be seen anymore. In terms of spam detection/mitigation it appears competitor search engine algorithm's lag behind Google's.
