Anyone tried the Android app. I cannot scroll the map on my Moto G. Looks like the app was designed for only one size of screen. I'm not impress at this time.

Get ready for PrimeDice Sig Campaign!
SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY.
I will be willing to donate many bitcoins (over 10) if you actually start this and give me maybe a small percentage or something. WE NEED THIS NOW

Interesting idea, E. Sorta like btc geocaching?

Sounds like you're still ironing some things out. To that end, you should probably see here.

Yes! it's geocaching + btc + games

I've been following your post in here for a long time and just wanna say thanks for all the info you post. As an entrepreneur that's been in the btc community for a short time (in btc terms that is) is always helpfull to get feedback from long term users in the community. I've been taking a look at that article for some time now, i'll try to follow every point Smiley
Thanks

A world wide treasure hunt? Wow, that's a BIG treasure map...
It would be interesting to know how you are going to put "treasure" in every corner of the world (at least for each city/town/village with a contestant). I imagine this would be like Google map that shows bitcoin shops around your area and will get some free bitcoins (hopefully enough to cover bus fare) by visiting them, right?

There's going to be bitcoins hidden on the streets of every city, and you collect them for free while walking with your cell phone.
"Every city"? Maybe say "most major cities in the US". For other countries, it is some of the biggest cities at most.

Hi, we're launching a new app called www.coinding.com It's a real world treasure hunt.

We help people get their first bitcoins with an interactive multiplayer game. There's going to be bitcoins hidden on the streets of every city, and you collect them for free while walking with your cell phone.
Also, we'll link places that accept bitcoins so you can see their location in the map. We just launched the sign up page with a contest to help us pick the first city for the launch! there will be a lot of cool prizes for the winning city!

Its basically Google Ingress meets BTC faucets. We've been working for some time on this, and is a great way to bring users that dont understand bitcoins yet (we'll implement game dinamics to explain mining and other concepts) and by linking shops that accept bitcoins we're helping them get exposure aswell!

Help us with your feedback, thoughts or just drop us an email to say hi.

Hopefully its whole world and not just to a specific country...

We're very cautious about security of people. For now we're setting up were the btc are located on our own based on different information and time schedules for each city we launch. If we add a crowsourced mechanism for setting up places, first thing on the list is the security, always.

Can anyone use it to attract people to a specific spot?

Well, there are loads of way we can monetize in the future. For example, lets say you normally go for a run, you could potentially pay 10 bucks for a service that puts coins in your running path, if you go for a run every day you get the money back, if you skip a day, you loose that money and that's the site commision.  This is just an example from the top of my head. Obv you also have the ol' advertising for new bitcoins shops that want to attract  new customers. If you pay x amount to get bitcoins spread in your city as a shop, those customers will be coming back to your shop, so it benefits everyone Smiley
