Nice. 

MasterCore is forked from Bitcoin Core.   It should be easier now for other exchanges to add MSC. 

The price on Polonex is already higher than on MasterXChange.  Boy this is a great arbitrage play.  The busier market (polonex) will have higher prices for a long time.  Buy on Master and sell on Polonix

This could be interesting.

MSC on poloniex:

That's pretty funny, today is the first day I learnt that 'xnova' is Robby.  So, not that big of a crush actually.  I just remember you fondly from the time when you came to MasterPeople and said: "You need to do...", "What's wrong with you is...",  "I've done many projects...", "You need me or you will die..".  

That's how you got the 'big swinging dick' moniker - not because anyone thinks you are the CEO.  Asshole.  

You guys keep working hard, MasterProtocol enjoys having you working on their testbed platform so they can incorporate any good ideas you might come up with - no matter how improbable that is.

Rawdawg, you seem to have this big crush on me,  because not more than a few posts of yours go by on this thread before you bring my name up,  again and again and again. Just so you know,  major decisions by the counterparty core team are made by consensus between Adam,  Evan, and I,  along with the community,  as appropriate. No one ever makes major decisions unilaterally. This is how it has been since the start,  by design. (and thus,  there is no "big dick CEO"... Sorry to bust your bubble there)

Past that,  I'd appreciate if you could keep your ad hominem remarks to yourself.

Well that is certainly one way to put it.  

I think you all will be pleased with the Donor and BizDev affiliate program that is launching.  At least as a starting point.

The short of it is that:

a) mastercoin has money to feed developers and an organization that has been developed over the past year to scale thanks to the hard work or Ron and Craig and all of the many people on the development team.

b) we assume that the best D'Apps will be dependent on bitcoin and bitcoin 2.0 protocols for their in-game "economy" (for lack of better phrase)

c) those D'Apps will continue to evolve (v1, v2, v3...) and will have lower level protocol needs which we have factor inputs for (see point A) to fulfill as a scalable open source development organization

d) D'Apps can choose to donate to the foundation to get master protocol development resources as well as access to bitcoin developers that we support (i.e., Peter Todd and more if we get donations) to help with evolutionary requirements (part of their donation goes directly to pay developers for protocol issues important to D'Apps)

e) YOU can now get compensated as a BizDev Affiliate if you help shepherd a D'App to use Master Protocol and they donate

This is not set in stone yet, but take a look and see how you would tweak this

people under estimate how much leg work is required to bring in mega cash

look at Swarm, Joel Dietz probably spent about the better part of this year going around talking to people

there is a reason why investment bankers and kicker starter take 5-10 points

The peculiar thing is, it happens to be one of the most interesting projects I've seen come to Mastercoin.  Storj is dumb as hell.  API Network could be huge.  WTF? 

Well I don't know where they're searching for potential investors if they don't have a thread here or somewhere else where speculator hang around......

API network used to have a percentage to first goal on their page. It was taken down after stuck at "7% to first goal" for a week.

Sadly they will probably raise less then $50k.

So far the API network has raised 37BTC and the genercoin 3BTC. I'm guessing it's less than they been hoping for however I wonder where they've been advertising their projects? Is there a thread here on bitcointalk about this crowed sales? Or is it reddit strictly only? If you're looking to raise BTC the best place to go should be bitcointalk.

Why is Storj listed on http://wiki.mastercoin.org/index.php/Upcoming_Crowdsales ?

It makes you question all of the listed crowdsales. Did you just haphazardly list projects hoping they would use mastercoin?

Don't go sucking Storj's dick; they need MSC not the other way around.  Counterparty is a cheap clone of MSC with a thin team who did nothing more than rip off the MSC concept and build a few cool add-ons.  If Storj goes that way, they'll suffer for it  -  but it will not diminish MSC at all.  

There is only one thing to do - make MSC better.  Get back to work and get the protocol stronger.  Don't waste time chasing those guys who bring nothing for the protocol.  If MSC didn't fuck up the MaidSafe deal, they'd be a million miles in the lead now.  Just have to figure a way to do the next deal better.  

Storj doesn't bring anything to MasterProtocol - MasterProtocol brings everything to them.  

Let Robby McPeobody keep developing his MSC clone with his hidden treasure of millions of shares.  A system owned and controlled by one guy.  In the long run, that one-man-show collapses like a wet paper bag.  

Keep your eye on the ball.

Hi folks,

I wanted to point out this interesting 'forum debate' between Mastercoin and Counterparty on the Storj forum.

Maybe because he lost a lot of money because of his own greed

+1 He is an asshole. 

What an asshole.  Mastercoin has an awesome future as long as the coders work hard and stop listening to this forum.

I just checked the website again- you guys are doing a much better job of communicating what is going on with Mastercoin. Thanks for stepping it up. :-)
