What services or offerings you guys currently miss in the Monero ecosystem?
What needs to be build to improve Monero today (a bit)?
Name everything:
- doesn't matter if for profit or non-profit typ of organization
- doesn't matter if only a small fraction of Moneros users would benefit from it (maybe only you?) or bigger party up to the whole community
- doesn't matter if such type of service exist or not exist in other cryptocurrency ecosystems (bitcoin)
[obvious what has shown to be useful in other cryptocurrencys and is still missing in XMR, could be benefitial (as it has a shown proof-of-concept), but even what not exists elsewhere should be named, so it can be developed/discussed]
The people who want to help develop Monero ecosystem need to know, what is asked for by the community.
The ecosystem must be activally developed by the whole community. Users must express their wishes, feedback, needs and suggestions.
This is important and should be addressed accordingly.
Its a difficult task/struggle as showm by all other old altcoins (ounce big & popular) altcoins. They all failed building an ecosystem. (besides Doge and Bitcoin, but both their cases cant be generalized)
From my perspective the main problems were e.g. the "endlessness waitings" for the next XYZ:
- "lets wait with development the ecosystem, until the price moves up"
- "lets wait with development the ecosystem, until the next release with blahblablah superfeature x123"
- "lets wait with development the ecosystem, until we have more users"
- "lets wait with development the ecosystem, until we get added at random_payment_processor or random_big_merchant"
- "lets wait with development the ecosystem, until we have trezor support"
- "lets wait with development the ecosystem, until we have multisig/deterministic wallets/2FA/big boobs ......"
- "you dont need to develop/offer this service, there will be no users ..." (from random idiots ...)
- "you dont need to develop/offer this service, this is already in development by TZR since 40 months, but will be ready soon"
- "your service/idea is useful, but it sucks because it doesn't have random_paranoia_request"
- "we are in the hoarding/acquirement-stage of the coin, we just hodl and buy more coins, spending and ecommerce-usage will be done in 5 years, so no need for services/merchanttools/acceptance today"
- "your products are to expensive" (from random idiots to every small merchant who started accepting the own coin)
this coin will only succeed, if we start using it today
if we dont start, it will never take off
every bootstraped operation/networks needs a start and activityness
if we dont build useful services with monero price at 0,5$ today, there will NEVER be a golden future
if people (esp. smart people) who support Monero and want to contribute cant find opportunities (no ideas, no users, no feedback, no appreciation), they will move on and find other projects, were there contribution is rewarded, welcomed and leading to something
momentum can be lost, if community gets to inactive (shown by many coins and other projects), today alot of people want to support Monero (don't disappoint them or drive them away, great negative examples: Litecoin, others: Darkcoin and DarkWallet)
bonus: services and usage today in this early stage, will also help to develop, gain expierence and hardening Monero
That's what i call a post!!!
I want to use Monero daily, shop, trade and by with it what i want. Give me a shop and i'll use it
