https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47685678 I don't even mind redirecting to the site if it helps - that would prove that I actually owned it. Another idea would be to have pledging.. people send crypto to an address and if a certain amount is reached, it is released to the owner. Well, maybe that is too complex/risky.. and too similar to crowdfunding, so just have people enter an amount, but don't make it binding. That would be good for people who want to jam, but have little to offer except for $. I think a lot of altcoin owners would contribute to an ecosystem if they thought it'd help their position. So put a large disclaimer that any funds sent are ultimately entirely at the sender's risk - they may get/see nothing in return. Reputation-building and transparency is important here - but a crypto address could be monitored. One problem is people sending funds to themselves. see: https://www.mysociety.org/2015/02/24/the-story-of-pledgebank... "Jam pledges and donations" could begin well but end up enshi##ified with scams eventually - even by users who build themselves up to be legit... until their very last project when they bail early with funds. At least with crypto, funds can be returned efficiently. That's important too. Best of luck with it all regardless. |
