If that is the case on how easy it is to make money, they I'm just wondering how does that app developer going to make money out of people sharing url? I suppose it must survive through ads or other means. Plus I would also keep watch on privacy concerns as well.

I think through transactions fees. It's not through ads because ad payments don't go to the company but directly to the users wallet, thats whats interesting.

You just share your unique url through the GetGems app (supports bitcoin) which is automatically attached to your username. You can share this url with your social network like WhatsApp, Facebook, Twitter, Viber, Telegram, Instagram, Snapchat etc. You can also put your unique url in your signature or any other site. 3 referrals gave me 75 Gems which is 4000 bits and i didn't have to do much really.

Once you click on referrals you can see which of your friends downloaded the app, the world first messenger app doing it in such easy way ladies and gentlemen, there is quack messenger with fiat but it's a fail you have to wait 30 to 90 days before you can cash out. Power of Crypto Grin

I would never do that. This is just elaborate version of faucet really, and nothing more, it will grant you some minor bitcoin dust only if you sell your privacy and install all these shitty applications. If you want to suffer consequences of being robbed of your privacy go ahead.

I'm sure it's a nice way to earn money for people who don't give a shit about privacy and so on, but as others have said if you download that app you're asking for trouble, there was a guy on Poloniex boasting about how he was making money off the people who he was referring to, won't go into details obviously because I respect peoples' privacy most of the time no matter how they act but I thought he was quite the douchebag.

Also, yes, if it's requesting permissions etc. on your various accounts then you can bet your arse that's going to get you hacked one day.

How about I put cams in your home and watch you 24/7, after all you don't have to worry since you're not a criminal? Cheesy

Haha come on man stop being paranoid, i would say before you jump on conclusions there are logical reasons for an app such as Messenger to connect with your camera. The most obvious is if the app you're using is a photo-based app like Instagram. Without access to the camera, the app can't do anything with your pictures, in the case of WhatsApp, this to allow you to take pictures from inside the app and send photos to your friends. And without access to your photo folder or camera roll, these apps can't save those photos for you either.

How about scanning apps (for barcodes) like the Bitcoin app wallets, so according to you nobody should download Smartphone Bitcoin wallet apps because the cam could watch your home 24/7 lol.

Let say microphone permission, you probably would think its the greenlight to eavesdrop on all of your conversations. Think about the basic features of the app you're using. Is there an option to record audio? Send voice memos? Shazam, which identifies songs playing around you, would necessarily have to access your microphone to work.

Not true. The app uses end to end encryption.

Either you did not read everything, or you have no idea what you're talking about. The app relies on social networks, which compromise privacy to a great extend.

I think you are a little too paranoid. This one has end to end encryption and data won't be stored on their servers tho, i would say if you are not a criminal you don't have to worry

http://imgsrv.worldstart.net/images/ct-images/2012/01/kevin_android_app_permissions_12.jpg ; although it is probably worse for Facebook right now (too lazy to get SS). I never said that the app itself compromises privacy.
That 'if you're not a criminal..' is the worst argument. How about I put cams in your home and watch you 24/7, after all you don't have to worry since you're not a criminal? Cheesy

This might be a bit off-topic (we need to stop).
Anyhow, I've already stated that the app is useful for people who have a lot of followers on various social networks. Those that don't can find better ways to earn money around here (even by just learning simple languages like HTML, CSS..).

Even though this seems like a decent idea, I'd rather not. You do realize that once you install all of those apps on your phone you pretty much lose all of your privacy?
Did you ever read the permissions that Facebooks requests before installation? It's pretty much requesting to watch over you.
This however could be very useful for people who have millions of followers on Twitter and are into such a thing.

privacy is already fucked up nowadays buy facebook and company, the proble could be getting some virus if you download many app, especially those not signed

nonetheless i find it a great way to introduce new people to the bitcoin scene, they can't refuse free money after all

If there ever was a killer Bitcoin app its this one. Bitcoiners should support it as its a win win for them. Imagine a few millipn new bition users what it would do to the price.

Nice way to get the common person and youth familiar with Crypto, i think wallets like Armory, Electrum are too hard to use for the average person, this is a fun/simple way to suck them in to use it Grin

Regular people really don't care about the privacy stuff and i think Crypto n particularly Bitcoin needs to reach out to these peeps and such apps are beneficial for that, billions use apps i use them and nothing has ever happened. I think you are a little too paranoid. This one has end to end encryption and data won't be stored on their servers tho, i would say if you are not a criminal you don't have to worry about apps even then you can use apps lol, plenty of them have apps on their mobiles even bitcoin is not anonymous where criminals get caught through it and that's imo a good thing or else i would doubt governments would allow it to thrive like we see now.
