https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/guild-wars-2-guild-looking-for-coin-endorsement-698666As you may or may now know, I have been in touch with a few developers and communities surrounding crypto coins, and how to get sponsored for this.
Due to overwhelming support on the
poll to pick "Minerals" over "Coin2" I have decided that we will be going with Minerals.
Why you may ask? Well, it is simple. The development team around Minerals is absolutely phenomenal. But, the main reason that I decided on this (besides the polls) is because of the community. The community surrounding Minerals is a great one, and I feel fortunate to have them as my In-Game reward system.
I do not have the hashing power to get many minerals, now that the PoW stage had ended, to besides my 1GH/S ASIC on the multipool, there is not much else I can do. I know that I have seen many people willing to donate to this. If this is so, then it would be appreciated by not only me, but my guild members.
This will introduce cryptocoins to a new audience that has never heard anything besides the word "Bitcoin" on the news, and hopefully, draw them in. As Minerals will be their first, it will be their all-time coin of choice, and even down the road, have a very special place within them.
How will this work?It is simple really. I will set up a separate wallet for Minerals, just for this purpose. ALL of the donations I get, will be used as stated, and under no circumstance will they be used in any other way. I am determined to make this work at whatever cost. But, what ever the guild mates do with the coin after I send it to them is up to them.
So,
While in-game, I record all of the "Achievements" my guild members make. Things like Representing the guild, advertising for the guild, participating in guild events, partying up and adventuring when someone wants to do something, dungeons, buying guild influence, etc, etc. So pretty much anything one can do for the guild, they will be rewarded. They will also be able to save their rewards and trade them back, in to real in-game gold, at a dynamic rate (The prices are changing all the time), but should roughly stay the same.
As stated before, I do not have much mining power to get MINerals, so donations are absolutely accepted to get this going. We do not need much at all, as the amounts will be low (or it would be UBER expensive
)
The Minerals wallet, will be a public one. Starting from the first donation, I will be keeping a public ledger of all donations (if possible, could you please give your username so I know who donated what, but if you want to remain anonymous, I will respect that of course)
I will also be keeping a public record of where the money you have donated is going. Our guild will be having lotteries either bi-weekly or monthly, not decided yet. So everything that the money is used for will be recorded.
This approach to crypto and gaming gives people who may have not even ever owned a coin of any type, a chance to own something, exchange it for game items, lottery tickets, items, etc. It will give them incentive to recruit new members, party up and do events, represent the guild, and be active in general.
If you are wondering how will I get them to understand and download the software to set everything up. Well, I will be writing an in-depth, picture guided tutorial on our forum for them to follow.
So, the journey begins. I have been recording their activities on paper for now, but once I get enough minerals together to actually start rewarding them, I will have their addresses and will not need to jot down their achievements.
I have been told by some of the Minerals community that you will help fund raise this endeavour, so I hope we can still count on your support!
And lastly, if you play guild wars, you are more than welcome to join our guild. Keepers Ov The Apocalypse [KILL].
