Name: NewbieCoin
Symbol: NEWB
Launched time : 2014-06-01 06:45:46 (UTC)
Description
==============
Newbiecoin (NEWB) is a protocol, coin, and client used to run decentralized applications such as creating and backing decentralized crowdfunding projects , betting on dice rolls and other games in a decentralized casino, etc. The protocol is built on top of the Bitcoin blockchain. Coins were created by burning Bitcoins during a creative "Twin Proof of Burn" period.
Newbiecoin is modified from ChanceCoin's open source with new features such as TWIN-POB,POS,new bet rule and new decentralized applications such as decentralized crowdfunding . (Thanks Magician and Venetian . Here is more about ChanceCoin : https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/anncha-chancecoin-supernet-core-coin-for-betting-in-a-decentralized-casino-528023).
Newbiecoin upgrade(v2.7)! (NEW, Apr.15 )
======================================================================
New feature: ODII(Open Data Index Identifier based on blockchain)
ODII(Open Data Index Identifier) is an open ID system based on blockchain.
Now open for registing! More feature coming soon...
The ODII was defined by The PPk Public Group (http://ppkpub.org/).
Download the newest version: http://newbiecoin.org/downloads/
Before you upgrade ,you must backup your wallet file. The wallet file (wallet.dat and files such as "ck-*") can be found in the "resources/db" folder .
Then unzip the downloaded wallet zip file (Newbiecoin-2.x.zip) to override the older files.
Newbiecoin mandatory upgrade(v2.6)! (NOV.10 )
======================================================================
Newbiecoin mandatory upgrade(v2.6) -- upgrade the UI of decentralized exchange, more charts such as trade history , order volume etc.
Download the newest version: http://newbiecoin.org/downloads/
Before you upgrade ,you must backup your wallet file. The wallet file (wallet.dat and files such as "ck-*") can be found in the "resources/db" folder .
Then unzip the downloaded wallet zip file (Newbiecoin-2.x.zip) to override the older files.
Newbiecoin Decentralized Crowdfunding Platform (NDCP) opened! (Aug.8 )
======================================================================
As a important milestone, the newest Newbiecoin wallet(v2.3) with NDCP released now!
Download the newest version: http://newbiecoin.org/downloads/
Before you upgrade ,you must backup your wallet file. The wallet file (wallet.dat) can be found in the "resources/db" folder .
Then unzip the downloaded wallet zip file (Newbiecoin-2.x.zip) to override the older files.
There are two important features:
1.Newbiecoin Decentralized Crowdfunding Platform(NDCP)
Like other crowdfunding platforms such as Kickstarter, NDCP will serve as a means for users to create projects and pledge funds to others. However, websites like Kickstarter can charge as much as 10% of a project’s total funds, making it harder for projects to successfully raise enough money. In NDCP , there is ZERO charge fee!
In many cases, centralized platforms impose restrictions on project creators that add to the burden of their task. Decentralization, on the other hand, empowers them to raise funds in a more proactive manner.
From a security perspective, NDCP protects users by not hosting private keys on any centralized server. This makes the platform a poor target for hackers or other exploiters.
Decentralized crowdfunding allows for more comprehensive vetting processes. In turn, this helps projects prove themselves to possible donors and increase their chances of success.
NDCP will support newbiecoin transactions and could lead to a reshaping of the peer-to-peer finance visio.
Maybe it will help us find more advanced features and services within the Newbiecoin/Bitcoin hybrid-network.
Please make sure the BTC balance should be greater than 0.005BTC for using NDCP.
Now you can pay attention to the first crowdfunding project : Super value Newbie T-shirt!
NOTICE: As a decentralized application, please use it at your own risk!
2.Change the inner unit of Newbiecoin from 0.00000001 to 0.0001 , while the display decimal on pages is 0.01 and the 3rd&4th decimal would be hidden, which would be better for reading and making transactions.
The displayed total amount of Newbiecoin would be changed from 6,582.30800000 NEWB to 65,823,080.00 NEWB and the displayed balance number of each Newbiecoin wallet would multiply 10,000 too.
Like the BTC unit changed from "BTC" to "mBTC", this change only affect the dispaly number, not the total value and the history transactions.
Please note this change for buying/selling newbiecoin in future .
FAQ: How do I find and back interesting crowdfunding project?
You can view the interesting crowdfunding projects by the Newbiecoin software.Open Newbiecoin and click on "Crowdfunding" Choose the project you are interesting, view the details. Then click "Back it" on which you want it.

TWIN-POB is a fair choice!

Value Stabilization&Growth Fund
================================
The price volatility of Bitcoin has been a stumbling block for wider acceptance. Newbiecoin was designed with a self-stabilization mechanism - the Newbiecoin Value Stabilization&Growth Fund. Whether you choose to convert your Newbiecoin immediately or hold for the long run, our goal is to provide a deep, stable, and liquid market.
The last reference price = The BTC amount burned to Fund address / total Newbiecoin amount
Trading and Stabilization Operations
The BTCs burned to Fund address would be used to establish the Newbiecoin Value Stabilization&Growth Fund (NVSGF). These coins will be used to place buy orders for Newbiecoin while the open price of NEWB/BTC is lower then the last reference price. The NVSGF will actively make a market in Newbiecoin to ensure a stable growth pattern. The goal of the NVSGF is to reduce price volatility while providing steady price appreciation. By allowing for price appreciation, the NVSGF will combat the effects of inflation on purchasing power.
