EDIT: I see that there's a block of Indonesians posting on the GRS Facebook page. IndiaMikeZulu tried in 2013-14 to launch an Indonesian Project with the help of my contacts there. Failed outright.

But . . . the reason we tried is that Indonesia has both a weak currency and a monumentally corrupt banking system. So we figured they were likely adopters. And they now are -- at least with Bitcoin. But GRS would make a great 'de facto' national e-currency. So let's organise that!

So, I've posted a link for this site's long-defunct Indonesian thread over on Facebook. And if any Indo folk are interested, we could launch a little 'klub pedagang' -- traders' club.

Indonesia remains one of BlackBerry's biggest markets. BlackBerry in the past launched dedicated phones and apps for the Indonesian market, home to 250 million people.
More than six million people still use BlackBerry in Indonesia. Indonesia is a vital market for the Canadian based smartphone company. Indonesia is one of the largest smartphone markets in the world, and is a country in which BlackBerry devices are gaining increasing popularly.

So with this knowledge we thought: lets see what other coins have a blackberry wallet on Blackberry world? Answer: None. Only Bitcoin has 1.
Our reaction: We developed 9 Blackberry wallets and published them on Blackberry world. The Blackberry wallets are mostly used in Indonesia.

Our indonesian users:

Thinking-Out-Loud Day

To begin: Go, me! Guessed correctly that the GFC would become the primary driver of crypto prices.
So, how much money is 'out there'? That is, how much of $X could theoretically seek refuge in non-government currencies?

Answer: $US 75,000 Billion

How much could flow unto cryptos? I personally have no doubt: tens of Billions.

[http://asia.nikkei.com/Business/Trends/Soaring-demand-for-cryptocurrencies-prompts-launch-of-more-than-10-exchanges-in-Japan ]

Next: how much may not come into Bitcoin? (and therefore may flow into other cryptos? Like GRS?)

Check here: https://coinmarketcap.com/charts/#btc-percentage

Could Bitcoin's percentage of cap fall below 50% by January 1st, 2018? I guess so. Could it fall as low as 40% by this time next year? I guess so.

Over to you guys . . .

I believe 2017 will be a good year for cryptocurrency in general. More and more people will pour money into crypto. If bitcoin gets bigger then all crypto will grow with it. The game now is to ride with bitcoin and later help people to diversify their portfolio.

'Vranova also notes that the problem of most altcoins is that their developers do not maintain the infrastructure needed to actually use their coin.'

https://cointelegraph.com/news/more-questions-for-poloniex-as-reasons-for-delisting-altcoins-come-to-light

There is an historic shift underway as 'outside' capital flows into the crypto realm. Many cryptos I've devved with talk talk talk about development; but after a while it becomes apparent that pump-'n-dumps are the real goal. Those cryptos are now headed for The Great Big Crypto Recycling Bin in The Sky. And good riddance.

'Currency function' -- merchants/OTC/P2P -- is the real future (and there's more money to be made here, in the long run, than in pump and dump).

Vranova is right about that. Most coins do not maintain it. Let vranova have a look at groestlcoin. We maintained everything the last 3 years.

P.s. whats going on with bitfinex? Another mt gox coming? I hope not

'Not everyone is convinced, however, with Twitter commentators suspecting SegWit is merely the latest tool for developers to use in order to gain from a temporary price pump.'

https://cointelegraph.com/news/vertcoin-surge-on-segwit-talk-leads-to-pump-and-dump-suspicions

Opinions on this? I only recently heard the term 'technical debt.' Hmmm . . .

1 thing is 4 sure: Segwit is the new Azure :-P

I was amazed to learn that GRS was first with Seg Wit. Now let's see how it plays out in other cryptos!

We are the first with SegWit because we have no chinese pools. All our pools are run in Europe i believe and we got very good contacts with our pools. No BTC politics on GRS.

I have seen it in the past. Just seen it again today because it was featured as a top mover on bittrex.

Question: Where can I find simple information like?

Blocktime confirmation
How big is the blockchain at the moment?
Are there lite wallets?
Can you run a full wallet but with pruning?
Is merkle tree protocol in the pipleline or already in it?

I love the all platform support - staggering!

Many thanks,

A Newbie!

Welcome!

1. Blocktime confirmation is 1 min
2. How big is the blockchain at the moment? Approx 1 GB
3. Are there lite wallets? There are 10 android wallets, 9 blackberry wallets, 1 ios wallet, 10 desktop wallets. We have atleast 20 Lite wallets.
4. Can you run a full wallet but with pruning? Yes you can. Our core is based on Bitcoin 0.14.0 which has pruning support.
5. Is merkle tree protocol in the pipleline or already in it? What do you mean?

Do you have any other questions? Feel free to ask here.

Ahh! 'Assisted adoption'!

And: 'You can't just promise people value and wealth appreciation and expect them to come to your service. You have to pay people to join.'

Well, we haven't actually paid people to join; but 'mentoring' involves costs on our part.

that is bad practice.
Coins owned on an exchange are not your. You are teaching them bad practice.
Instead teach them how to use a spv wallet.
For example let them browse on their mobile to: http://jswallet.groestlcoin.org
Now THERE is a sexy and slick wallet!

As for adoption in family:
we play monopoly in our family with groestlcoins. We dont use the game chips anymore. Its more fun!

Hey,

Congrats on coin today doing well

How do i mine do you have some guides

thanks

LHDG is a mate of mine because . . . I live on the lonely highway. And . . . LHDG owns a pot of crypto. Yesterday, she turned up with a 10-oz bar of silver, looking to buy some GRS as a part of the 'occasional trader-merchant project.' My suggestion was to wait, to see how the price holds.

However, I may sell her some GRS from my 'vault' at a discounted price, just to get her in the game. Watch this space.

Haha good advice!

Morning, Jackie.

'Occasional Merchant-Trader'

If a business accepts crypto, and real-time converts it to fiat, then that's just crypto as payment method.

But if that same merchant accepts crypto, and holds it, and then uses it to buy stuff, that's crypto as currency.

But crypto-as-currency is more complicated to set up. So we are going to 'mentor' the merchant in question, providing complete assistance.

An essential part of the experiment will be that the merchant only accepts GRS when the price is low (and I will buy for silver bullion any GRS the merchant wants to sell).

This project will be tiny and clunky; but we've had real success with a related project in Perth, where a guy we know has mentored family members through the whole process of buying their initial cryptos, and setting up a Ledger Nano S, and storing the cryptos in it.

But how are you going to find such a merchant?

Note this graph: https://coin.dance/blocks

My outfit are taking this v. seriously. Apart from some Bitcoin on exchanges, to trade with, I am 'post-Btc.' So, if you're interested in P2P trades, tell me.

Do u expect a hard fork on BTC?
