Through decentralized cryptography, Bitcoin eliminates the need for banking intermediaries, significantly lowering transaction costs and could liberate poverty stricken economies around the globe by providing access to capital to the one-third of humanity that is excluded from the financial world.  However, some of the most transformational innovations of Bitcoin have been exploited by bad actors.  These nefarious players give Bitcoin a negative reputation.  This reputation leads to perception and perception becomes reality, especially in the nation’s capital and among regulators.

TVs, computers, mobile phones, etc, are in what’s called a market economy. A market economy is, strictly speaking, an economy in which prices of goods and services are based on the laws of supply and demand, without interference from governments or other outside bodies.

If you consider national currencies (like the Pound, Dollar, Euro, etc), there is no market economy driving these currencies forward or seriously allowing other currencies to compete against them. These currencies have remained static and have not evolved since they were created. Yes, the coins and the paper have changed, but very little else.

Our first workshop is next week, but obviously we can only accommodate a small number of people per workshop. Also, the workshops will only be in Britain – the expense of running workshops in different countries would be astronomical!

Unfortunately, most people don’t understand how crypto-currencies work, including the technology behind them. But, we believe crypto currencies are so important – a crucial financial-freedom step for mankind – that we need to get the message out and educate as many people as possible about this amazing technology.

In 2002, 60 Minutes was ranked #6 on TV Guide’s 50 Greatest TV Shows of All Time. The New York Times has called it “one of the most esteemed news-magazines on American television.

60 Minutes’ latest investigation is into the US Stock Market.

During this coming week, the Team will be launching GB Coin. Through the considerable efforts of Sara, Dave and Adrian, we have built up a sizeable following via the blog, Twitter and Facebook. We think we have enough interest to fill the first workshop which will be announced tomorrow, with the venue, date and time.

Each person that attends the first workshop will receive a paper wallet which entitles them to 100 GB Coins – see below.

In the case of Hull City Council, Dave Shepherdson the Financial Inclusion Support Officer, explained to me that previous local currencies were treated as loss leaders. In the case of HullCoin, mining a cryptocurrency actually works as a way to add value to the local economy.

The idea to use cryptocurrency came about when Shepherdson was asked by the Hull City Council Welfare Rights Manager, Lisa Bovill, to investigate the possibility of using an alternative currency (in the sense of the Brixton Pound-type of local currencies) as a means to provide an anti-poverty framework in Hull.

No PoS GB COINS but it is something we can consider in the future if there is enough interest and logic is fully understand.
At present, Britain may be less than 1% of the population has crypto - real knowledge of currencies. Our main goal was to education people about cryptos and let them to participate. How to? Through the free workshop and free GB of COINS for the students.

There was a great article in the DailyMail yesterday about how Goldman Sachs is sucking the financial life out of British people via the Bank of England.

Amid the recent management shake-up at the top  of the Bank of England, as  it was dragged into the investigation of the alleged fixing of the £3 trillion-a-day foreign-exchange markets, one crucial appointment went almost unnoticed.

While public attention was understandably focused on an Egyptian-born mother of twins becoming only the second female deputy governor of the bank, the far more influential appointment was that of economist Ben Broadbent.

We think it’s fair to say successive British governments and the Bank of England have done an extremely bad job financially running the United Kingdom. The UK is nearly $2.5 trillion in debt which will never be paid back and the interest on this debt is increasing almost every year. As a result of this massive debt and interest repayments, the Government is implementing extensive austerity measures.

The recent Bank of England’s document (mentioned above), inadvertently exposes the sham behind central banks borrowing money to governments with interest which is repaid by tax payers. Just over a week ago, Sonia Poulton confronted Nick Clegg about this issue.

Hi Jasmein,

Once we have tested everything, we will announce the date and time of the launch and do the countdown. Every miner wants to see the best possible ROI (Return On Investment), and we promise it will be a very profitable for those that invest the time and effort to mine it.

Today, we will share some of the things we are doing to promote the coin to the masses and the bigger marketplace.

this is looking really good, is there a launch date yet?

Hi Chris,

We understand your concerns about scamcoins, and to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt we are genuine, please come to our first workshop in Worcester UK, details here: http://blog.gbcoinfoundation.org/free-gb-coin-workshops/

We hope to hold the first workshop within a week of launching the coin, possibly at the Avoncroft Museum in Stoke Prior, Worcestershire.

Also, if you become active on our forum Chris, we will share our business mobile with you and Skype. As you can tell from our blog, we are not hiding behind usernames, pseudonyms, or proxies. We are a real team that any one can meet. And there is so much more to what we are doing, but we haven't shared all the details yet.



As a British person I have to mine this Cheesy. Looking forward to the release and will be mining it for a while. I like how you will be organising trade fairs. I really hope you are genuine. Many people pre-mine and say they will do this and that, only to sell their pre-mine as soon as it hits an exchange. I hope this is not one of them, but I guess time will tell.

Us Brits like to have an idependant currency. My guess is that the future of cryptocurrencies will see country specific currencies, and a world/universal currency such as Bitcoin, time will tell though.
