Evildave's idea is genious marketing.

If it is, I'd say let's go for it. But put GW away. Because lots of people hate hearing about it.

Its *NOT* the GW debate...read the post, carefully avoided Global Warming completely.
Pollution yes, GW, no, so lets not start in on it.

Right. If one time gw is confirmed and accepted by 95% of people we'll play this card. For now it's 50/50.

I can't let this go: http://climate.nasa.gov/scientific-consensus
97% consensus that climate change is man made.

The problem Uniqueorn, is that real science is NOT done by consensus. If that were the case, then we'd still think that the earth was at the center of the universe... I could go on and on with examples of why consensus has no place in the scientific method. Furthermore, I need to point out the MASSIVE incentive governments have in paying scientists to come up with the statistics they want people to see. Don't you see just what kind of money is involved in 'carbon taxing' every single person on earth?... Right now we're seeing record low temperatures all over the world. They changed 'global warming' to 'climate change', and I'm sorry... but the earth's climate has been changing for something like 4.5 billion years.

I could go on and on. The main thing is: real science isn't done by consensus.
and second: If people want to agree that the earth's climate is changing in a negative way, that's fine. Just DON'T steal peoples money through taxation in an attempt to fix the problem. It won't work. Yeah, plant some trees or something. But FORCE is NEVER the answer.

WHY THE MOTHERFUCKING CUNTBUGGLE DO YOU BRING UP TAXES AND FORCE? This has NOTHING to do with NXT.

Climate change has ALL the emperical evidence on it's side. He asked for consensus and I gave it to him. If he wants EVIDENCE and studies I will also hand that to him. NO PROBLEM.

Your conspiracy theories are just fucking boring, as someone who has studied and still keep physics as a main interest: please stop talking about science as if it is possible to manipulate 97% of climate scientists to lie or "publish or perish" the same conslusion. That's not how the sciences are done. Sorry to burst your bubble.

We are seeing LOCAL temperature lows around the globe, yes, but the GLOBE is warming up. See the difference? Local = climate change. Global WARMING. ITS STILL FUCKING WARMING GLOBALLY HENCE THE NAME GLOBAL WARMING. PLease can you please understand this?
People like you are the reason they had to change the name to "climate change" because people like you are too scientifically illiterate to understand that GLOBAL means GLOBAL and not your backyard.

I can't fucking continue this discussion. You are not worthy

Man, c'mon, be reasonable. Even if it is warming, so what? It may start cooling today or tomorrow and will continue cooling for the next 500 years. There were times when the whole globe was covered with ice and times when it was so hot that almost every living thing died. And by the way lots of such things will happen in the future. And Nxt can't prevent warming or cooling. There are reasons for thing like that happen and human is not one of them.

Did you know that all people with all what we created: cars, roads, trains, buildings and other stuff can fit in a cube box with 7 km (4.35 miles) side? Basically we're not even exist. We're just a small piece of dust under nail.

It's better to burn the money or spend it directly on the Nxt economy (marketing or development bounties).

Yep. Every spending must benefit Nxt economy in a maximum possible way. With this money we can have stands and speakers on all conferences within at least the next couple of years and develop lots of new features. Probably we won't even be able to spend all 10M ever beacuse it would be too big money to spend.

FFS, Guys !!

This might not be the last time I have to say this, but read the proposal before you start waffling on about Global bloody Warming.
The carbon-offset concept is about a whole load of good things:
reforestation, clean stoves, air pollution and a whole load of marketing brownie points.

NXT is already being seen as "green" because of it's low energy consumption, a carbon-offset project will take this to the next level, do some good in the world (forests, happy poor people) and make NXT cleaner than a Prius.

This is not my pet project*, I just think that it could bring NXT a lot of good publicity, and a unique position in the crypto market.

Look at the amount of hassle Bitcoin is getting right now over it's power consumption.

Again, read all of my proposal, then shoot it down point by point if u can.

BTW: fuck politricks.



*(My pet project would have a lot more Japanese schoolgirls in it...and maybe a 3.5l Mazda diesel)

THIS! It's disturbing to see people all cropping up with their grand plan to spend money that isn't theirs on causes that are important to them. If you want a carbon offset program, that's fine...just build it yourself with your own money and money from willing donors.

My comment earlier on spending the money to sponsor Mormon missionaries was tongue in cheek to make the point that we can all come up with great ideas on how to spend it, but we will alienate people in the process.

Don't start on GW or we will just get completely de-railed

Pollution, air quality, forests, oxygen, poor people and marketing. Thats what I want to concentrate on....

Don't forget the commies that love to hitch their wagon to environmental concerns as an excuse for controlling other people's money and business. You see a giant pile of money (Nxt) sitting there and want to appropriate it for your pet cause.

Let's keep Nxt apolitical. Burn the money, or use it explicitly to promote the Nxt economy without relying on politics.

Otherwise, your intention sounds nice and all, but I think the money would be better spent to send Mormon missionaries to Africa. Want to have a debate about that?

It's 97% of a small group. I mean 95% of all people in the world. For now gw theme makes half people angree. We don't want to make them angree, right? It would be our weak spot to be associated with such thing.

@dzarmush.....really don't want to get into the GW debate, but my carbon offset idea is *not*, repeat *not* purely about GW. With a good carbon-offset project we can cut all forms of air pollution, help some poor people and get good publicity for NXT. We are already using the low energy consumption of NXT as a marketing point, my idea is just an extension of that.

Do not underestimate the power of doing good things (and getting free publicity for them!)

Read my post, come back to me on all of my ideas, please.

I've got no problem with energy consumption. It's a really popular theme as well as organic food and stuff in the first world countries and people like it. So they'll like Nxt.

I just said we need to avoid gw topic completely since lots of people think it's a bullshit. I don't want these people think that Nxt is bullshiting them.

There was a decision made that 10M won't be sent to genesys, so this stupid suggestion is finally out of discussion.

Nope, CfB still is planning on it.

But it won't happen. There were a poll and we voted for the committee to supervise the money. Now it's just one more poll to choose these people. A week from now they'll got coins.

A good measurement for marketing and sales is the # of client download and the # of Nxt exchanged at the exchanges for a period time.

Clean stoves. Much of the developing world (2-3 billion people) still cook using crude, inefficient wood/coal/cow dung/whatever burning stoves. This gives rise to huge emissions and local air pollution which brings health and quality of life issues with it. Recently several groups have begun to develop much cleaner and more efficient cooking stoves, which not only cut emissions and need less fuel, but make a serious improvement in the quality of life for a lot of very poor people. Again, this can’t be a bad thing.

I like this very much. To elaborate: smoke inhalation from indoor cooking stoves is a major cause of lung disease and premature death in undeveloped areas. If I had some real $$$, even without considering carbon offset or other benefits to the Nxt network, I would give to help develop and distribute cleaner cooking stoves.

If you should destroy nxt, at least you can fucking donate them to needing people around the world (homeless children of manilla). Would be many that would cry their eyes out if they got that kind of money.

I like the idea of at least something good coming out of the coins if we can't decide.

Also, I like the Carbon Offset plan.

I am also tired and don't think clearly anymore, so I'm off to bed.

It's been a pleasure as usual Smiley

(good luck with voting, funds and whatever else crops up!  Grin Gives me something to do for the summaries Wink )

Yes. Thanks for reminding. We should also exclude from money keepers list everyone who mentioned charity. If you're so generous than let others increase Nxt price with these 10M and then spend your own coins for poor children or kittens or whatever.

Sorry, if you get worked up by one person stating he likes an idea on a personal basis and you judge that person in totality by that, then: wow, just wow.

Night night.

I'm just saying that in Nxt committee we need people who wants Nxt to succeed. People like Bill Gates to Microsoft. If we spend 9M for Nxt development and marketing then the last 1M will cost ten times more than 10M now. Starting that point we can start do nice things for whatever we want.

What part of "IF" in my sentence didn't you understand?

"IF" we don't get consensus then CfB will send them to Genesis.
I just said that *in that case* I'd rather see them put to a use that is constructive.

If you are going to disqualifying remarks, please do so based on what I say, not what you think I said, please.

Dude, youre just talking, and it makes no sense. About your ideas, what you will vote for and so forth. Do something that matters instead of just TALK. So, by sending 10M to the genesis block is better than charity? Dear sir, you are an asshole and probably havent seen real life.

Enough of this discussion.
