yes I am buying up some, more in fck we trust!
We are working on some great things here. I like to discuss again what our main objective as a coin is. Is it bringing awareness of how failed our current system is, by protesting? Funding projects to create a new fairer system?
Creating a wave of resistance? Do we want to be associated with occupy movement?
not specifically protesting, but for sure educating and helping support those types of protests/rallies as well as other 'friction points' in the world, not just banks, but everything that is wrong with our current 'system' that is governed by greed and mired in corruption
Do we want to entirely get rid of banks, or focus on how we can change the current financial system with crypto currencies in combination with banks and/ or with/without government ruling.
Like I am open for whatever we choose, but I am not entirely sure at the moment what the focus is. they all have a good cause.
I think there is room for discussion here so that new joiners can focus on which direction we are heading.
in my opinion banks are only just a start of it, but they are a very large part of what is wrong with the world (banks being 'the financial system' and fractional reserve banking etc), but i would like to set this up to be a movement that is about helping as much as we can, the message fck the banks is just really a start and it resonates with people so thats a good way to start
We could start up a project that creates awareness of how the current system is build to fail. A system that George Washington knew that it moves the debts to later generations and will eventually collapse.
In many ways our coin could very much add onto the message of hiddensecrets:
http://hiddensecretsofmoney.comHis youtube video explains step by step how failed the system is and he is dedicating his life to changing the system and bringing awareness that the current system is a massive con that is being kept alive by those who benefit most.
We could help startup a project that adds to spreading his message, by bringing awareness to those who have no clue how the current system works. which is probably 90% of humanity.
It is build to be complicated so nobody understands exactly what is going on.
exactly, people keep talking about 'fckbankscoin' when in reality we want to start 'fckbanks' which *HAS* a crypto currency, but isnt just a crypto currency,
thats exactly some of the people and groups of people we would like to target, its those types of people who are also the ones who want to help make the world better... not just from a financial standpoint (tho sadly money does play an important part in the world still), but from a standpoint of why are we not standing up to all of these problems as a group. funding things to help spread awareness and helping educate people is exactly what we want to do. the new site that we will be launching will hopefully show that, it won't just be another crypto currency site where it talks about how many blocks we have, but we want to explain why we are saying 'fck banks' what is going on in the world, why a crypto currency is a good fit for this message, and hopefully get people pointed in the right direction
To the devs, yes I agree you should be primarily focussed in getting the technical issues sorted, however I assume you are also behind the message of the coin itself so I hope you could share some insight to what you think about the above issues/ questions just to form a clear picture and open discussion.
Some of the questions were answered before, but it doesn't harm to repeat what we are about and what message we want to spread
.
Also the video we have (we discussed we might want to change it) it suggest that fckthebankscoin is a replacement for the banks, I personally think that we are better of being a protestcoin and not think we will be a serious replacement of the world banking system. Although anything is possible in cryptoworld.
As a coin right now we are probably better of as a protestcoin and a means of paying for projects/ bands / peaceful demonstrations, and merchandise for bringing awareness.
yes, that video is from the old dev, and while catchy/fun it really isn't (i believe) quite what our current attitude is, we want to be more serious and try to do something 'good' for the world. i agree, the current direction we are going for is more of a way to facilitate protest/change, at least that is the hope
hope that clears a bit of it up, we really want to be the 'currency of the 99%'
