Interesting conversation. This endeavor sounds like it's gonna cost at least $1 million by the time it's said and done.
So how much are you looking at putting yourself, Mark? And how many partners are you looking to take on. I imagine the fewer the better, to keep things simple. I'm a newbie with little money but you never know who's lurking.

Think Open Transactions.
Websites are notoriously insecure.
Next best thing to Open Transactions would be what MPOE uses: every order is a PGP-signed message plus the way he uses amounts and addresses makes sure there is a totally undeniable audit trail throughout.
The website bases exchanges wtc do not even give you undeniable irrefutable signed receipts fergoshsakes. Except, despite them, whatever the blockchains involved can provide. (But the blockchains provide no proof of what you ordered/offered etc...)
They say the first million is the hardest, after that it should all start flowing much easier...

EDIT: Oh and as to the payoff for the service of storing gold, well, ask e-gold about that, oops...

I am an "ex-pat" Brit who is a "permanent resident" (aka Landed Immigrant) of Canada.
Things like gold could probably be insured. The R.C.M.P. always gets their man and they are armed...
We could maybe do without armed guards and just have good witnesses - Commisionaires maybe - and recordings and rely on insurance and the eventual effectiveness of the R.C.M.P. in recovering any stolen goodies.
It is all very civilised up here.

Let's make a few quick million and the details will iron themselves out.
It's shocking how many people have millions yet no one has been Able to set up an online wallet which is literally bomb proof and hack proof. People in general lack an imagination and balls.
I would personally invite hackers, thieves and trolls. It's yah kind of commitment that brings in massive business, cause right now there is no safe, reputable place where people can store their coins.
And if you've got the infrastructure and security then why not set up an equally safe and robust mining center and a safe-house for colored coins assets.
It's funny cause I've been thinking about setting up the exact thing since I was back home in Transylvania and I was actually planing to hire you with the tech set-up.
Very interesting. Now I just need to come up with lunch money and a couple million bucks. Ha!
Mark,
I agree. The time to dump worthless cryptos for real assets has not quite come. The big crypto profits haven't even come yet. Later this year, and especially if Bitcoin gets that ETF, it's gonna get very crazy and millions can be made by those who don't sell way too early.
The right move at that point is to diversify from no value digital to real value hard assets. Ironically, the masses will do exactly the opposite which will result in a massive wealth transfer from the stupids to....to, well, me...and you since you were smart enough to not to sell like many in this first wave already did.

Of course it is in Canada.
What commies?
Coloured coins can represent things like grams of gold. Things like that can be stored in vaults.
Well okay, they could represent huge bars of gold. Things like that can definitely be stored in vaults.

Maybe I still don't get colored coins.
I thought the benefit was that the contract was streamlined and packaged [digitally] inside the blockchain.
So why would we ever need to store someone else's gold in our vaults? That's a lot of risk. And what would the payoff be for such a high risk service?
From what I've read about Canada you can hardly own a gun and taxes are enormous. Not really the best place to start a new business which involves high profits and the need for guns. Ideally I was gonna build an ultra secure data and mining center either in Transylvania (which is protected by EU laws) or a place which is very neutral and gun friendly, like Switzerland.
For some reason I thought you were a Brit not a Canadian.
Of course it is in Canada.

Well okay, they could represent huge bars of gold. Things like that can definitely be stored in vaults.
(That is a concession to the idea that a mere few grams would hardly call for a several acre secured compound as they could fit in some tiny safe.)
And yes of course I am serious. Its just that half a million bucks is a little larger percent of my crypto holdings than I want to move into land/infrastructure investments just yet, since I still expect my crypto holdings will increase in value faster than such infrastructure investments. I could swing it alone but would prefer not to as I expect I'd end up kicking myself for not holding coins instead. So I want to gradually diversify into infrastructure rather than blow half a million CAD at a time on infrastructure this early in this particular year.

I am interested in all eight merged mined coins.
But I have physical infrastructure expenses hitting hard right now.
Also I am looking at a secured compound with massive UPS and generators and satellite dish (huge, in a big geodesic sphere type thing) and security systems and such, looks to be a steal but likely to cost a half million CAD or so plus will need work. (Plus I will want to add solar arrays and windmills.) It is a fully fenced ex military installation with gatehouse and all that. Anyone interested in investing in a massive secure merged mining and Open Transactions servers datacentre?
Maybe we could also add vaults so it could also serve as a secure place to keep precious things represented by coloured coins...
(Since it already has all the infrastructure for having armed guards and so on.)

Are you joking?
No, MarkM doesn't joke...not about high tech, anyway.
Man, I already planned my own data center slash mining center inside a cave in Transylvania.
I'm not joking.
But your idea sounds brilliant and it's already set up where my bomb-proof dream cave would take time and much more money.
Unfortunately I'm broke but if iXcoin does go up to $10, as I expect, then you've got a business partner.
BTW: I don't get what the vaults are for given the colored coins contracts and such are all digital, are they not? But I do have a plan for those vaults...and the armed guards. But I hope this isn't in Canada as those commies would make running a new business [with armed guards] very painful.

So who is actually developing or actively working on iX?
Why do you ask?
Seeing if it's actually a high priority or side project for someone.
It seems like it's high priority for Friction but I'm not a programmer.

I made a nice looking signature line but for some reason it works nicely here but not when you put it in the profile. Can anybody fix it so it looks like this?
iXcoin, The next Bitcoin - Time Tested 3 YRS Old - Ultra Secure 9 Peta Hash - Native C o l o r e d Coins!
Edit:
Nevermind, it works.
If anyone likes it please feel free to use it. Took me he hour to "code" this bad-boy. I'm still the original WEV. Lol.

Friction,
How did you add the large red letters to your signature line, I'm trying but that options is not available. I think it's a great way to advertise iXcoin.

It worked for me, just follow Friction's directions. Pretty simple.
We should all add ixCoin on our sig line.

Signatures use same formatting options as posts.
This is a test

Folks... before you start patting yourselves on the back.... can you work of finalizing the press release?
When I looked a few days ago it looked finalized. One guy in particular made some great suggestions.
I'm not sure what else needs to be added or changed.
I wanna realease a PR as well but i first need to raise from the dead an old LLC of mine and add an additional Subsidiary. That's gonna cost me about $1,000 and right now I don't have it.
I suppose I could do it without these legal entities but it would be very Mickey Mouse without them. And besides, it's looking like I'm gonna need them anyway, if any of these investments work out, come tax time.

And here we all thought Vlad was just some regular run of the mill insane guy.
Lol, he may turn out to be insanely rich if this really takes off the way he's been preaching. We now have our very own iXcoin Jesus. Lol.
