I'm confused as to why you are responding to me or rdnkjdi. I have the same opinion as you; I said I would wait until something was released.


Will you be releasing a white paper/code/anything before the 9th? It would be odd if you didn't give the people that have been waiting for that a chance to donate.

Despite what anyone says, for the sake of transparency and honesty i would like to know if you got a refund.

Also, there's almost an exact replica of this project ongoing, https://bt.irlbtc.com/view/2696095.0 appears to be same donation setup and all. Leaves some of us to wonder, because this is a self moderated topic, who knows what has been deleted from this thread from information people have dug up.

Felix, can you give us any updates in development and etc, like people are giving you quite a bit of a sum of money, and despite it being a donation, it's still an investment for many, and they'd and future donators would like to know the progress of this coin.

As it stands there is no Github , no src and mo proof of coin existing. There's only some nice graphics, images and a lot of puppets promoting this thread. This all can be created by anyone with some basic knowledge of photoshop, and scripts running to create BTT accounts en mass.

Thank you for this felixando! I see a cutoff date for donations, but do you have at least a tentative date on your first release/announcement? Your project looks very exciting and I'm glad you have gained a bunch of support.

derp derp, except for the testnet and thr screenshots of functional wallet with private transactions.

I’m sticking with felix on this one.

Im confused with the donations are the donation is it split equally among all the donators or is it calculated for each person's donations

for example If i donated $1 would I get the same amount of stone as someone who donated $10,000

This has all the makings of a scam. In development for a month and a half, self-moderated thread, over $330k in "donations," and zero code. Greed is the perfect recipe for delusion. Where's the repo, "felixando?"

Felixando -

Is it OK if I send you a second donation from the same XRB wallet or would that make it difficult for you to keep track of records?  I wanted to send you about 500 USD initially but the market has crashed and I'd like to make up the balance.  Should I make another bitcointalk account and send a second donation with a second wallet address or is it ok to send a second donation from my first wallet/this user name?

This may have been discussed, but this would be implemented in a wallet by everyone having two addresses, one for zStone and one for Stone. Bob can pay Alice 100 zStone and Alice can choose to keep them as zStones for her private transactions. You mention that Stone would be on an exchange but zStone would not, would there be a way to make the transaction go through a node to appear as a swap or just allow exchanges to send zStone?

e.g. Bob buys 100 Stone from XYZ exchange, Bob withdraws from XYZ instructing to to pass through a node, so XYZ exchange sends Stone to a node that relays it to Bob as zStone. Bob swaps to Stone, so the ledger would read "Bob balance = Bob balance + 100 Stone"

Alternatively, I think it would be cleaner to allow exchanges to send zStone. Bob buys 100 Stone form XYZ, XYZ sends zStone, Bob swaps, "Bob balance = Bob balance + 100 Stone"

Moreover, what if one party is okay with with the transaction being public but the other is not? e.g. In Canada, there are professions in which it is legal to be the provider but illegal to be the serviced. So, Alice received 100 Stone as income and needs to report it to the CRA. Bob doesn't want a paper-trail. Bob sends zStones which appear as Stones in Alice's account from an anonymous source.

Am I missing something? I'm trying to think in terms of fiat cash. If you deposit $100 the bank wont ask where it came from, but if you deposit a check for $100 there is a record of where that money came from.

Thoughts?

Although that's never been confirmed.  Not a lot of details have been released yet on how he is handling donations, whether or not your stake will be proportional to the donation amount, or if it decreases over a certain amount.  Either way, it's pretty scary how all donations are collected and done even before a single line of code is presented.

Yeah, I haven't donated anything and don't mean to spread FUD or anything like that.... but there are a lot of red flags here for investors to consider.  For one, felix mentioned in a previous post that he is able to spend time on this project thanks to his early contributions in BTC years ago.  Sounds to me that if he made a huge profit from that and didn't need to work anymore, he wouldn't be so concerned about needing these donations to work on development for this one.  Yet here we are, most of his posts are about new methods of donations, end of donation date, non-technical things like distribution structure, rather than the technology or code (where he can be called out on more easily), and if you look at his post history before this thread there are no clear indications that he is even a technical person.

My 2 cents.
