For most people, the process of change is always uncomfortable and challenging. It is hard to commit or bet our hard-earned dollars in investment we don’t understand. Many have missed opportunities investing in Amazon, Google, and Facebook of the likes at the initial stages because of this tendency.

For over three years, since we founded DNotes, we have been positioning DNotes differently in recognition that education and trust building are crucial to have more people understand and participate in the new investment phenomena going on today. Bitcoin, blockchain, smart contract, FinTech, ITO, and the future of money are beginning to dominate the new world of fast and furious high-risk investment today.

Thousands of man-hours have been invested in DNotes – the digital currency and its ecosystem with strong emphasis in educating investors and influencers of our industry. This is one among many videos being created. Help us to promote our cause. Please share and like at your pleasure.

Thank you very much for editing this and posting it Joe (DNotes). And Brandon_Cheliak for the slides.

Glad to help. We will have more releases soon.

I wanted to expand on your well-made point MiningHabit.

Crypto & Greater world financial inclusion:
 
The inclusion for all people worldwide to participate in the financial system is now feasible with the advent of digital money. There remain today 2 billion adults without a bank account (as you pointed out); the vast majority living in developing countries. Respondents cited a lack of money as the most common reason for not acquiring banking services — a signal that the economic cost to obtain and service a bank account hinder financial network participation. Proximity to financial institutions for rural dwellings act as a further barrier to entry, with banks preferring to operate only in locations where it is economically viable to do so.
 
Peer-to-peer cash networks render null and void the economic barriers that prevent financial participation of low-income and remote citizens worldwide. Trade is crucial for economic development, and p2p systems require but two compatible internet-capable electronic devices to facilitate this need — and the capability for digital signed ‘offline’ payments are already possible for very remote locations.

How can the DNotes mission to fulfill this need better than the competition can not be a winner!?

Yes, we're working through some cool intro graphics atm. Looking forward to the first video release!

We should have the first video in the series available today. May need some community feedback on what the video branding should look like. Leaning towards something along the lines of this:

You're very correct MiningHabit. The system is paid for by the wealthy, and catered for them in return. If anybody could invest, it would jack up the prices of stocks far too much, and the wealthy wouldn't be able to get the early buy in. If they're so shrewd with investing, surely they'd know how to beat the rest of us?

Getting these barriers down must be a priority to improving the opportunities of everybody, everywhere. You stated that very eloquently.

Huobi Adding Ethereum Trading to Exchange May 31st

It will take a while for enough people to gain a good understanding that DNotes is much more than just another digital currency. We are building a tightly integrated financial and business enterprise system designed to take full advantage of the future of money as well as the under-pining blockchain technology. A lot of efforts are being made to produce a series of videos that will make it easier to gain a better understand of DNotes and the team behind it. Hopefully, the first one will be posted later this week.

Gosh, I love this. One of the things that I really despise about the regulatory environment around VC is that the government wildly favors the rich. In order to invest in a company like Snapchat back in the day before it was public, you have to be an accredited investor. And the SEC has 8 different definitions of how one might qualify to be one. 7 of the 8 are related to being an institutionally accredited investor (you run a hedge fund with a certain amount of assets under management, for example). The one related to people is absurd. You have to make $250,000 a year the last few years, and a reasonable expectation of the same income in the current year AND you need at least a million dollars in net worth (not including illiquid assets like your house).

Doesn't matter what I think I might know about investing, about money, about risk, about statistics....I am NOT to be trusted like the rich trust fund kid. I'm not wealthy, therefore I'm too dumb to understand investments with higher volatility and risk of ruin.

I found a loophole (if you are an executive at the company in which you are investing, you can be accredited for that single investment). But still, I'm not allowed to put money into Snapchat. There have been relaxed rules around this and crowdfunding, but they still make it impossible to investment at meaningful levels.

And this is a reason why I am, and have been for years, an acolyte in the dark proselytizing about the benefits of crypto.

I'm tired of rich gatekeepers telling me what I am and can't do. I'm tired of the government using banking as a bludgeoning tool of foreign policy. There are 2 billion unbanked people in the world. Now they can benefit without needing all the expensive infrastructure of the western economic system.

Decentralization of money is just about the biggest idea going right now (second, imo to augmented reality as controlled by networks of AI). And the idea I quoted above is just one of the myriad reasons that it's so powerful with so much potential for growth.

This thing is about to become a VC-backed rocket ship. Fascinating. And awesome.

What is DNotes Global?

• DNotes Global is an incorporated company that was created by the DNotes founders to provide services, and hence increased value for the DNotes currency
• The company's aims are to increase the value of the DNotes currency, and guide it towards mainstream consumer adoption. This will take a lot of investment, which is difficult to find without a profit making venture to support the goal. There needs to exist a business entity that supports this goal, and is loyal to the DNotes framework to take maximum advantage of the benefits the DNotes platform will offer, while the currency can take advantage of the network that the company will create
• The company is privately owned, but 25% of this equity allocation has been gifted to the currency itself - think of this like Coinbase giving away 25% of its equity, and profits, to Bitcoin users, and all the while pumping all of its profits into further developing Bitcoin to foster rapid growth.
• The currency will then have an intrinsic value tied to that of the DNotes Global company, being backed by an asset (the profits of a company), in the same way that a share in Google is backed by the profit and future growth that Google could achieve.
• The stock of a company is tied to the value of its future profits.
  
  So, let's say a Google share is worth $100, and it makes 10% yearly profit (ignoring it's potential for capital appreciation).
  
  *Dividend and growth would likely be up to 10% (or higher with the right announcements, deals, partnerships etc)*
  *When there is less than 10% ROI able to be earned elsewhere in the market, people will invest in Google stock, this gives a floor buy support for Google stocks. Without this attachment to future profit share, investors take their money elsewhere.*
  

• DNotes Global has awarded 25% of its equity to its currency holders as a gift. The currency both has a speculative / appreciative value from its value as a better value medium of exchange, and contract, asset and other transfers, then further value provided from its share of DNotes Global's equity.*
• This means anybody can take part in DNotes Global's success, without needing to come up with minimum capital requirements that are common in the VC world.

Thank you both for the answers. This is what I call a professional answer. I respect that. Looking forward to invest a part of my monthly investment fund in this project. I guess I'll see you around.

Thank you, Chase. Very well answered. At this time DNotes Global, Inc. is an early stage privately held company positioning to embark on some major projects mentioned in the DNotes road-map "2018 and beyond."  Like most start-ups, it is launched with a small amount of initial capital, which I (Google DNotes Alan Yong) personally provided, along with a few key DNotes supporters. It is unique that 25% of the ownership is allocated to DNotes's stakeholders because we want all of our long-term stakeholders to benefit from the success of DNotes Global.

At some point in the future, DNotes may seek additional seed/expansion funding which will result in more shareholders. Subsequently, we plan to utilize Crowdfunding under the Jobs Act to raise up to $20 in additional funding. Ultimately, we intent to take DNotes Global public with a substantial IPO. That will give DNotes that best changes of being a power player in our industry.

DNotes is unique in many ways. Beyond DNotes the digital currency, we have an entrepreneurial group committed to help manage DNotes as a business without controlling it as one. We have provided an abundance of materials through many links (OP) for those who like to do due diligence on DNotes before investing. It is our belief that as more professional investors participate in our industry easy access to accurate materials for purposes of due diligence is crucial.  

Hi alfaalfa, it is great to have you here and interested in DNotes!
Great questions - I will try to give you a quick answer until someone else can fill in the blanks.

This is the verifiable public information available:
DNotes Global, Inc. was incorporated in the State of Delaware on April 1, 2016, #6005128. It is a 01025 Stock Corporation ("C" Corporation). It is currently being built and great care is being taken to ensure it is done right, so there is a lot of legal work going on (the Law firm of Huck Bouma has been retained).

The 75% ownership will be held by the large investors who put up the big $$$$ to help fund this massive project. Depending on how it is structured, we may never know the identities of who has invested in it, if that information is not required to be made public (think of the 'silent partner' or ICO).

The 25% ownership held by DNotes currency will be subject to dilution. Future plans may require the company to go public with a stock offering in order to fund global growth. These investors will be expecting their money to increase the value of DNotes Global, not the currency (at least not directly). If the value of the company increases, the value of the currency also increases, and even though the % ownership may have decreased through dilution, the actual value of your stake shouldn't. It is a win/win situation and the first of its kind in cryptocurrency.

I hope this helps.  

Hi. I want to invest in this coin, now that I know about it. But I have a few questions before. Who owns 75% of DNotes Global Inc? And where can I find this, I searched for it and all I can find is an address.  And which one is subject to dilution the currency or the other 75%?

BITPoint Japan Plans to Facilitate Bitcoin Payments for Retailers

https://dcebrief.com/bitpoint-japan-plans-to-facilitate-bitcoin-payments-for-retailers/

Welcome diamondblend23, and thank you for the questions.

POS is a different means of distributing the reward, all you need is your coins and computer to participate in the reward system and support the network. In POW miners have to spend money on advanced mining equipment and electricity to support the network and participate meaningfully in the reward structure, therefore often have a higher need to liquidate their holdings. On top of staking, we are also offering a blockchain based CRISP reward, which will earn a target of 2% annually, distributed monthly, for accounts that have coins for more than 30 days. This will further enhance the benefit of saving your DNotes for long term. However, the price is still based on the market forces of supply and demand, we recommend that everyone only invest what they can afford to lose.

Our vision is to build fundamental value for DNotes through the for profit company, DNotes Global Inc. and its infrastructure and services that we are building and working on. DNotes the currency owns up to 25% of DNotes Global Inc. (subject to dilution) which can be used in a number of ways to grow and support DNotes.

"I think POS coin is easy to staking and getting?"

Absolutely, our focus is to make it as easy as possible for everyone to participate staking as well as our CRISP program.

Very interesting how about price? Price will not fall if Dnotes2.0 become a POS coin? I think POS coin is easy to staking and getting?

Chase, I definitely recommend DNotes as a good coin to get into
