First CF has been launched, mostly as a test to see how that type of funding will go.
New algo for switch of QORA 1.0 is in development.
I've been a little busy lately, but I'm getting setup in my new position, and once I do I will have more time to be active here again.
Shouldn't take longer than another week or so. But development is being done in the mean.
Where can we find the full details regarding this Qrowdfund? I see the description in the wallet, but is there a page showing the full list of objectives and milestones?
good question mate i hope dev will answer this one by one or point us to the proper place to learn about those question moving good again for qora. good luck
It would be good to see some details on the crowdfund page. I've quoted Crowetec's most relevant post (imo) with some snips:
[ANNouncement] - QORA PR and Marketing CrowdFund started!
Hello everyone! We have launched the first CrowdFund for QORA, for Marketing and PR!
This is the first CF of multiple that we will be launching for QORA. We will launch them in groups of 1-2 at a time, I think I will also launch one for Development at the same time as this one. To see which direction people would like to see more focus on at the beginning of this big transition.
Also... We are going to be redesigning the way QORA hosting works in 2.0 version, making it encrypted so that illegal content is solely on the hands of the person who uploaded it and broke the terms of service.
So, this lead us to thinking about what could be done to make more use cases for QORA 1.0, and we are thinking we will likely turn it into a decentralized news hosting location. Make it limited on the number of accounts who can actually upload content (until we get to QORA 2.0) and give big news agencies upload accounts, allowing them to decentralize their news content. This is one idea.
Also, we have many ideas for the improvement of the QrowdFund platform, I'll give details on this a bit later! I believe it will be a completely new way of looking at CrowdFunds and management of them, and keep from having the issues of people starting them and not completing the jobs they started them for (thus scamming the people who donated to it.) I think it is a great plan, and it should work out great!
QORA 1.0 will be an exclusive gateway to 2.0, with the holders of 1.0 being able to donate coins and obtain one of the first 'mining accounts' on QORA 2.0. QORA 1 will also function as a gateway to poloniex through the power of ACCT, and will be focused on the QrowdFund platform and making QORA 1 into a service for decentralizing news content. With 2.0 being the one that anyone can use for decentralized hosting, as the data will be entirely encrypted, and able to be put responsibility solely on the person who uploaded the content. In the current system that isn't the case, so the worry of illegal content being on other user's computers if someone breaks the terms and uploads illegal content, is an issue.
Anyway, feel free to continue giving your opinions on what we should be doing with everything.
As far as the person who suggested that the switch to a mined algo is good, but to make sure that we don't over saturate the market with new coins.... I completely agree. We will make sure that we don't introduce new coins in super quick fashion, and make sure that the introduction of them is done in a way that the current price will not be negatively affected, while at the same time giving the network the boost in power that it needs.
We will also make sure to provide as many use cases for QORA 1 as possible, while at the same time providing others in QORA 2.
We're still open to suggestions and ideas, so keep them coming!
