Regarding listing VERI at the exchanges, I wonder why are we the one begging the exchanges to list the token?
The exchanges being business entities are supposed to be the ones chasing us for information and assistance to list VERI.
Why the fuck are we the ones needing to beg and bribe the exchanges for it?
If the exchanges do not want/wish to list VERI, then so be it, it is NONE of our problem.
If VERI is going to the moon, it can do so at EtherDelta; there is absolutely NOTHING to stop any genuine participants from buying VERI at EtherDelta.
In fact, looking at the arrogance of the exchanges, if I were in charge of getting VERI listed, I would limit/permit the listing down to just 2 exchanges subject to my strict review; any exchanges that don't get to list the token is their problem and their business loss, and it's their stupid mistake that they deserve so.
It is unwise to beg the exchanges.
They should be the one to come to us.
Fuck the exchanges.
Yes fuck the exchanges. That is precisely what Veritaseum does.

Speaking of Jamaica, what are some real life theoretical examples of ways that Jamaica would use VERI? Jamaica has a local currecncy I believe but they also use a lot of USD. Clearly Jamaica could adopt a crypto-currency and abandon the USD and Jamaican dollar, but VERI doesn't appear to be the ideal vehicle for that. What other applications would or could Jamaica use VERI for if Reggie is successful? All speculation of course.

Yes, I read that but it's too theoretical and top-level for me to understand what it really means. In low-level terms, what are we talking about?

Our token technology, Veritas, serves as the basis for a pan-Caribbean “smart" currency designed to operate in conjunction with traditional fiat currencies (to enable immediate adoption) that allows the entire participating set of caribbean nations of the African and latin diaspora and beyond to share common liquidity pools and markets, yet retain their sovereignty and economic independence.

Are we talking about everyone in Jamaica running around using VERI instead of fiat to make every day purchases?
Why exactly would the currency be "smart" or why does it need to be "smart" and why not a non-smart crypto like Bitcoin? What would be some specific advantages to having a "smart" digital currency (specific examples please)?

Note: I'm not compiling about anything. Just want to know the reason of disqualification?
Ok then. Drop it.
I'm quite bored with this Bounty topic. The bounty period is over.
Those who qualified were more than generously compensated. Since the bounty is closed this is no longer on topic.
As a VERI token holder I am not interested in any further Bounty programs being offered. Veritaseum should buy ads on social media for sure.
We did not expect to pay out so much for the bounty program but the new program will be much more productive. We are also putting recources into more traditional advertising.

We are on out way back from Jamacia now and I can say, Jamacia went very well. Stay tuned to twitter.

A hedging strategy could be crafted using the Veritaseum P2P trading platform demonstrated previously.

Oil and Aluminum would be one such pair: http://atlas.media.mit.edu/en/profile/country/jam/#Exports and if they were found to be correlated, the hedge could be vs the Jamaican dollar (correlated assets also could be hedged for black swan type events).

This hedge could be offered to exporters, importers or both. The P2P platform had zero - counterparty risk. Such a strategy would be advised by veritaseum and a fee would be paid for the service.

For what it's worth, there was more to the twitter bounty program than just following Veritaseum.  There was a list of things, and minimums required.

By the way, I received two deposits of VERI to my ETH account awhile back, which I assume was the payout for the bounty program.  I really appreciate that -- thanks very much.

And for non-bounty talk:

The exchanges can't ignore VERI forever -- one of them is bound to add it soon.  Once a major exchange is trading VERI, I suspect there will be many more buyers than there are sellers, though.


Imagine the price if Reggie knocks it out of the park in Jamaica

Hey
Of course I can. But not
for you. That would happen only by my willingness.
You are a investor and I wish you good luck. But please don't come into bounty talk! If possible
read fast few page of the project Announment thread about all those talk regarding on bounty between founder and partiticipants.
You will find the appeal was came from both ends.
But after the ICO everything
become yours only! OK, no problem. I'm out. Will wait an explanation from the founder. Cheers

Thanks!

It looks to me like he has a fair concern. If there was supposed to be payment for being a Twitter follower and he never received compensation he deserves an answer if he did not get the payment.

Hi
Masiah,
Hope you are doing
great. I'm waiting for hearing
back from you. Almost week ago I was send you an
up-dated twitter audit report via e-mail, later by pm here as well.
But seems like you forget about my participation in Veritaseum crowdfund
bounty campaign.
Actually I'm not in hurry. But a
feedback from you was expected and would
highly appreciated.

Thanks





You did not earn any points for the twitter bounty

Hi
Thanks for feedback!
But if I wasn't eligible for getting points why you asked to providing an up-dated Twitter audit? That seems strange to me.
And Can you please explain little a bit more! I'm still following the twitter handle.
https://mobile.twitter.com/Veritaseuminc   |  And there was allocation of point for following regardless of weekly stake! Moreover as far as I can remember I was also completed the 1st weekly points task!

Note: I'm not compiling about anything. Just want to know the reason of disqualification?

The exchanges are awash with money and struggling to keep up with support so they're not desperate to list anymore coins.
That's probably true. But I'm sure they also realize that to grow revenue they need to add new coins & tokens and recognize that there is a significant 'first to have' advantage.
While I think bribes could help (and why not kick some VERI to some of these exchanges if you're the dev?), at some point you lose more than the amount of the bribe by not being the first major exchange to handle a coin. For the devs, getting VERI on a major exchange is or should be a major milestone that will help bolster the token/technology and make it easier to sell to institutional buyers.

Veri is a long term play, just like Polo not listing Waves and evntually Bittrex picking it many months later - if the product is good enough, some exchange will pick it up an eventually it will rise. It's only been a month guys, just be patient. Exchanges are all going decentralized anyway, with Waves, Etherdelta, Komodo BarterDEX, HEAT etc. Polo and Bittrex will be legacy centralised exchanges.

I am waiting on the alpha client which is I believe due out in the next month or so. It would be nice to see something concrete so to speak.

More like avoiding like a plague. As to answer your question. Some of them are not listed but vast majority is listed within a month or so. Some are listed even before the ICO (e.g. GNOSIS) or during the ICO (like SNT). There were already discussions why it wasn't listed so far. From disruptive business model for exchanges to major exchanges not participating in the ICO. So they don't have any tokens and can't turn huge sums of money. Another which I suspect might be the case is that you need to "bribe" major exchanges to be listed there. At least first one or two. The rest are following soon. Take your pick why is not listed yet.

It seems the exchanges are kind of ignoring VERI..
