i have add the site to my website

I like the design and the message. Good to have such visitcards!

Looks good man! I personally would not type everything cursive that's all. 

Ok, here is a preliminary design for business cards I plan to print for distribution among dutch supporters.

The plan is to get enthousiasts to go to local shops they regularly visit anyway and let them ask the store owners if it's possible to pay in Gulden. Then they can explain in their own terms and comfort why they want this and leave the card behind for the store owner to look at once he is not busy running the store anymore.

This takes away the sale pressure and gives room for a friendly approach.

Please shoot at the design and context

thanks for the site!  very handy!

Another mining calculator for your list:

I believe the site owner visits here from time to time.

Of course with the way clevermining is jumping in and out and the difficulty bouncing around, not sure how valuable these  mining calculators are..

Looking at the block explorer and difficulty graph I get the impression things are becoming more stable. Or is that just me?

No problem, for a test network it would be a fine thing. Just not in a production environment, where mistakes can cost a lot of money.

The year is 2015...

... we all think back to the days clevermining was dumping out all the NLG into bitcoin...

...I wish they were still doing that.

Yes, I see your point here...  Just a thought.

Centrality is the least of your problems then, the security hole (with potential huge losses) would be a bigger problem. And lets say.. you're standing in the store planning to start paying and some update comes in, messes up your wallet (or the device of the shop owner)... people would not be happy with that.

Check the antivirus sector... enough examples where they messed up big with their daily auto-updates of virus definitions.

I've been following with great interest the discussion on how to fix the current issue and something related came to mind concerning updates in general. One of the problems I see with crypto wallets is that it requires a total replacement of the compiled wallet file and, action by the user, to perform any sort of an upgrade short of changing the conf file. This limits the Dev's ability to push out new code and evaluate it's effect on the network while leaving some wallets not upgraded until the user gets around to it.

So, I was thinking, would it be possible to make sections of the wallet code, such as diff algo, graphics, communications, etc, modules that could be upgraded on the fly by pushing the changes through a communications channel (like the network alert function) causing the wallet to auto upgrade without user intervention?

For example, you are trying to determine the final "fix" for the current problem without actually being able to run different scenarios to test the changes in real time, in the wild. If you could simply "broadcast" an update, it would allow an immediate upgrade. If something was not to your liking, you could put the old code (module) back almost immediately.

And for those who might say "too centralized", I say it's really no different that having everyone update to a new version of the wallet, just quicker and more efficient.

Something to consider...

What about this one?


Serious now, I've been in the business for quite a while now and know many larger merchants, including the above. Therefore I also know we are not going te get them in that easy. What we can do is build up a network of smaller, more accessible stores and draw their attention.

There are so many ways to get this done, most of them easier than you might think. Maybe we can combine efforts to build up a marketingteam around NLG?

Nice touch LTEX, had me spiking for a minute and then realized what you did haha. You are correct. We can contact a mixture of companies big and small. I'm also working on a payment tool that would make NLG incredibly useful in daily life. Hopefully the technical side of things can be made, I asked BioMike to pitch in on that. So we'll see where we land

Also, I've written a "what can I do" page for the Guldencoin website. I'm not sure when that'll be live on there, it's going to be a Dutch only page for now. Will translate it soon, so more people can get in on the action .

@LTEX do you know anyone at a chain or some owners of franchises of MCD or BK in NL for example? We can approach them first and spread out from there.

Lets see what happens next month. Something big might come... but like you say it's up to everyone involved in Guldencoin to make it more usable. Don't be afraid to hear no. For every 10 no's you get you might get 1 yes and those previous no's will also become a yes as they have now heard about it and thought it through.

This is the future no doubt. Currency has changed from the beginning of mankind and it will continue to change. It's evolution.

I've put this up to demonstrate what impact this could have. Everyone immediately sees what a great achievement this would be for both NLG and Cryptocurrency.

I want to show you, it is not that unreachable as many might think. We just need to start doing the right things, maybe not McDonald's to begin with, but small local shops.

We already got several SubWay's accepting NLG. How hard can it be for us to get the others in as well? It just takes some persistence from enthusiastic NLG supporters. Go to your local SubWay's, Order a sandwich and ask if you can pay with Guldens. They might be reluctant at first, but hey, you can show them that there actually are colleagues who already accept! That turns your conversation into warm selling instantly! I will provide each willing member with business cards and basic tutorials on how to approach prospects, starting next week to ease up the process!

Let's not forget, we've got a "golden" opportunity to make this the best coin in the crypto landscape, it's up to us, the community, to make it happen!

It actually took some coding 

It's an advancement on the truth  

Hope it is. Looks much better anyway atm. We have to wait and see.
