The guy deserves 7.5 btc for the effort he is putting into this Con although I wouldn't hand him the NLG to distribute because you don't want him to have 1.5 million coins waiting to be dumped at some time in the future. It's one of those Cons you don't mind losing on because your getting guldencoin and reducing the premine at the same time.

Well... let's make him have 7.5BTC to set up this mining session.
The 1.5M Guldencoin will be distributed over the participants, so don't worry about those.

I think this opportunity deserves a change.
I have seen how George made his entry in the Guldencoin community and how things evolved from there.

There is trust and all the info we need about George for now...



Maybe I'm just to stupid to comprehend the plan, but is there any post I have overseen where there can be found an explanation how 100Mh can be guaranteed for a lifetime? I don't care what equipment is being bought for this (and how low the power and maintenance cost are), but it will cost at least 5BTC to get a good (used) 100 Mh rig. That will last no longer than 2 years (if lucky). Then a replacement needs to be bought. Let's say this will only cost 2.5 BTC then, again for 2 more years. After 4 years the initial well has dried up. Where is the (relatively high) interest coming from that takes care of 10 to 30 more purchases?

The only thing I can come up with is a ponzi scheme where new investors pay the tab. Once new hash rounds fail, so will the "lifetime" contract. Again, it's probably me being dumb here...

Can you please make an effort to educate me George? Again, I'm not accusing you of anything, I just want to be able to grasp the plan. Hell I'll pay the 7.5BTC myself if you can make me understand!

Sure.

I believe most people get stuck on the assumption that it is only about purchasing hardware. Which is not the sole case.

It's a mix of hardware and software, and connecting the dots between them.

Reason why I haven't disclosed the system in every single detail, is simply to prevent other coins from copying it. I stated that I would like this to be an "NLG exclusive" (https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.12102686, bottom), which, I would like to uphold...



It's in my beliefs that individuals should take responsibility for their own hardware. It would be better for 10 people to have 1 10MH rig each all over the world then a 100 MH in one location.
What happens if there is a fire and the entire rig goes down in flames? Rather use the premine to buy rigs for people if they promise to keep them online for at least 2 years with their own electrical costs. This is way too risky and too centralized.

Say someone has a disagreement with George and he says fuck you and fuck guldencoin I am going to point these mining rigs somewhere else.

Buy your own fucking rigs people, don't give control to one person. Retards anonymous!

I have withdrawn most of my funds at Bittrex some time ago. I don't intend to trade short term anyway. Maybe more people who are here for the long run can do the same?

I did the same also. No funds at bittrex anymore. I also don't intend to trade short term. In for the longterm.  Cool


Good thing will also withdraw my funds from Bittrex.

Only 20 blocks to go.... http://www.guldencointrader.nl/



Put some buy orders just above 300 , strong dump signal from traders that made a small profit on the recent rally. After that the price will go much higher.

How much can I pay you to give me your price trends. You never wrong!

knowledge  Cool

I never thought I would see low 300s again, will be buying more coins.  Grin  What do you think the price will be next year for a long term holder like myself?


For new users to trading and investing just follow this graph, if the supply on bittrex remains above 45 million then lower 300s is a good buy in price. I wouldn't buy above 350 until that graph moves below 40 million (short term). Within the next year the price will be above 600 and whether you buy at 250 or 450 won't matter if you not a day trader.

Best thing I can suggest to buyers of NLG is leave your orders at low 300s and frustrate those traders that wanted to make a quick btc profit. They will eventually dump out for a loss or minimal profit.

It was based on my IPO for the mining session that is currently running. Funding a project through funding.guldencoin.com is mostly for projects like the NLG supermarket or recently the 4 Nocks payment terminals.

This falls into a different category I guess, but, when people take packages and all packages are taken and there aren't any concerns or concerns are taken care of. The instigator of the IPO can arrange the funds from Rijk with the pre-mine and request all payments from people buying the packages etc. etc.

It's quite an open process this way, because everyone can question the IPO and ask for clarification. As is happening now.

Ok, thanks for clarifying this Roel, I just thought all IPO's were supposed to go through the funding site first...

I have to agree with Barry as well. I have been reading all posts regarding the plans of George on the sidelines and have had the exact same "gut feelings". I am not going to participate anyway, since I have my own "lifetime" mining operations running  Smiley

Now don't get me wrong, I'm not saying I do not trust George (neither does Barry btw) but I'm also not saying I do. One of the main reasons is that lifetime mining contracts are as good as impossible to do. I also have not seen full disclosure of how he thinks to make it possible and the main red flag that I see is that he evades every effort from guy's like WaterLooDown to get involved (it's always not possible and all automated).

Again, use common sense people. If someone proposes to deliver something that seems nearly impossible, it's not so much to ask for his credentials.

I'm more that willing to step in and oversee the thing, but that does involve at least a meeting IRL. I'll pay for lunch George  Wink

Fair.

If a meeting IRL would help, then a meeting IRL should be arranged  Wink

Great George! What would be a convenient time and place for you? I personally live in The Hague, but I can meet you anywhere else as well, maybe some place in the middle? Just let me know...

Whatever happens, everybody please remember that our common goal of making NLG a success is most important. ...... We share the same goal!

Ofcourse. This discussion is a good one and logic also.

About investing in this IPO mining of George, you get 15k NLG per package out of the premine and will be distirbuted by a trusted 3rd party of the community when it goes on next month, as i understand now.
So in case the mining does not work out as mentioned by George, even then investment is not lost. So that is why I say lets give George the benifit of the doubt. But discussion and question can go on. Best is to ask questions on the forum, i think. What I have seen in postings of George he is really willing to contribute to the succes of Guldencoin. I think everybody can make his own discision in this, wanting to participate or not. More trust can be gained coming weeks, this should not divide the community at all.

I think I need to ask about this one as well, I haven't seen any IPO request on the https://funding.guldencoin.com site. Where and how was it decided that 1.5mm coins would become available for this project? Again, I'm not deliberately trying to frustrate things, I just want to keep things clear and pure!

I'm all for funding this initiative myself, once a certain clarity has been established first! I think if George can actually make this work it of course would be great for Guldencoin. But I still see to many uncertainties...

At https://community.guldencoin.com/t/community-mining-ipo-follow-up-permanent-mining-initial-setup-session/1215 you find all the info about this project. if you are a member/have an account at the official Guldencoin forum you can ask additional questions about the permanent mining session there  also...


Obviously I've read that one. It only states what can be expected, not how it's done. Maybe we should start out by defining the term "lifetime". Is this  the average age of a normal european citizen, like 85 years, or is it the expected lifetime of Georges aunt in China? I have seriously read all the posts made about this, but I have not seen any details on how the operation will work.

Again, if someone tells me he can arrange a contract that lasts 24 months I can oversee that. Lifetime mining is just a bit to vague for me...

All vague at the moment. I'm out george, 2 packages available for someone else. Should not be hard te sum the conditions and facts. All we get is lifetime, family and 100mh.

Fair.

Per your request, I have opted you out.

Perhaps GeorgeAurea can answer the questions if he wants to.

He did already on the other forums.

No he did not and you know it.  Grin
He only gave vague answers and those are not to be double checked in any way.

A thank you should be in order I guess...  Grin

I already stated on the community.guldencoin forum that I am fully aware of my status, and that I would be more than happy if anyone else would handle the distribution of the 1.5m Guldencoins  Wink

George, my brother asked if your using 2nd hand hurricane 10mh miners to build up the farm and he said the price your doing this for sounds impossible.

Nobody knows who GeorgeAurea is, most members are known to other members or have had contact with other members in some sort of way.
There is no member who can back up GeorgeAurea that he says who he is.
This is one of the reasons to make me doubt to support the project.

No extra information is available where in China the mining will take place, what company or people are involved.
None of the information that is given so far can be double checked in any way.

Lifetime mining and everything is all-in; maintenance, electricity, miners etc etc even if the electricity prices would double it would be no problem.
The lifetime mining project, let's be real it sounds to good to be true and if something is to good to be true you should be extra cautious.

If this would be a CFP project I would have voted for a big NO but since this is a one man project the people who are supporting and donating money should use their common sense and keep in their mind that the chances are big they might loose their money.

I really really hope GeorgeAurea is the real deal and he can back up his words but I have big doubts.

Valid point.

The only 1 thing I would like to correct, is the alledgedly stated regarding electricity prices doubling would be no problem:
"In the highly unlikely case electricity prices would double, mining revenues would possibly become less but would not cease the mining itself to continue from happening."  Wink
