what is the Shareholders opinion in respect of having a Nu Foundation registered somewhere? We have seen this happening already with Ethereum (Switzerland) and now NeoCoin (Isle of Man). Their project is grounded to one or more foundations/legal entities in some country. They can have proper employees and make invoices with a legal validity. Without that, life of contractors will be forever confined in grey/dark areas and wonāt encourage long-term commitment.
This pretty much sums up my view : for long term commitments we need a registered entity.
If switzeland allow private company issue currenciesā¦
But that still costs money, as a shareholder we should always worry about the cost/profit. I dream we can make enough profit to pay Jordan/Sigmike and other dev till they retired. And still confident about B&C becomes a profitable company.
On other side, this foundation is the weakness central node of decentralized organization?
I totally agree with you that the loose pegging ie spread is needed, but Jordan, cybnate disagree.
I invite you to do an experiment after B&C launched, we provide liquidity to BKC with our own fund, and 0.9$ buy 1.0$ sell. If we can survive that proves we are right.
In Tomj opinion, we are just speculators outside mail office buying/selling stamps. He said stamp is always stamp not money in US, he is right on the fact but wrong on the reason. US government never allow stamps as money, so the result. However, nobody forbid BKC used as money, thatās the point. Furthermore, if B&C shareholders pass a motion that selling BKC in an anti-infaltion way, my Hayek dream nearly come true, I do dream people buy good crypto money as pension.
Interesting question: if stamp allowed in US to buy anything like dollar, and each stamp price increases with inflation rate, who will laugh to the end? FED or mail office? LOL
I donāt have much funds to provide for this experiment, but I like the idea. I might join you as I think one can survive in that business.
BKC will be consumed by fees, so sooner or later youāll be able to sell your BKC.
Btw. Iām going to buy at $0.91 and sell at $0.99
I only differ in the interpretation of the result.
In my opinion it shows that people buying BKC at <$1 and selling BKC at <$1 causes the price of BKC to float close to, but below the price at which they get sold by BCE.
US-NBT needs a relatively stable price.
But Iām on your side thinking that itās not required to have lots of thousands of USD value at a very tight spread to call it pegged.
With NuLagoon (one of the official LP) providing funds at a tight spread, Iād dare supporting liquidity at exchanges only up to a few thousand USD at a very tight spread.
B&C sells BKC at the ceiling price. ie 1$ (although can be added anti-inflation in future)
As an small experiment with several thousands BKC, we sell@0.99$ and buy @0.9$, the less spread you choose, the high probability to fullfilled but BTC volatility risk is also high, you may lose money, and the broader spread, the safer, but less probability making a deal. So in the end, the free market may reach equilibrium with multiple sell/buy walls , thatās a healthy market depth.
B&C donāt need to pay a single penny to such liquidity. Of course B&C can provide some revenue to tighter pegging if shareholders believe it nessesary.
The anti-inflation feature makes the spread less harmful to the so called pegging quality because buy@1.2$+sell@1.3$ is better than the toxic inflated USD. Would you hold an acurate 1$ for 10 years or a blurry BKC around 1.8-1.9$ in the end?
I guess some people get financially abused for so long that they feel unease when the kindly treatment comes to them: when you hold money doing nothing for years, nothing ought to happen to the buying power. They donāt belive āanti-inflation bondā and āliquid currencyā can become one----the good money. Letās make this dream true!
5) If BKC succeed in the ācoaseā pegging, then Nu may use BKC/NBT pair to achieve āfineā pegging for much lower risk/expenditure. ie B&C provide both safer platform and relative stable backing asset!
Nu does not wait till it runs out of money before leveraging NSR. Do you mean wait until weāve diluted the same amount that we bought back and weāre at break even? Or do you mean wait until 5 years later when weāre still going strong? We can easily coast for a few years off supply growth. By the time itās really an issue, weāll have volume-dependent fees and be generating ārealā revenue. The only reason it looks like weāre in trouble now is because nbt supply has been on the decline for several months. Give it a few months of remaining steady or growing and youāll see how temporary the depressed Nu economy is.
I would not vote for any attempt to peg BKC. It is not in the business model and would be throwing money down the drain.
I as a BKC liquid provider, donāt need to acquire any permisson/motion for BKC pegging, this is freemarket and I am self funded. Just do what I like to do! I believe only government can stop me by canceling my internet access or sealing the software port.
Free market will make the business model come into being, free market will tell you people favorite the accurate 1$ NBT or loose pegging BKC from a much profitable company. The invisible hand is the ultimate judge, not us.
Itās interesting to note that Nu profits when they lower the price of the peg and B&C profits when they increase the price theyāre selling at. Just a funny thing to think about.
Youāre right, weāll see what people do. However, I think that BitUSD has shown that people donāt like the free market model very much.
Because in cryptoworld, lots and lots of central bank haters, they hate bitUSD, NBT, Tether and any other FIAT pegging money(inflated).
However, they like gold standard(BTC) or Hayekās good money(anti inflation).
Thatās my belief, time will tell.
As far as I know, B&C will charge fee based on blockchain data size, itās stupid to maintain 1$ for ever, that means B&C shareholders income decreases every year given the same trade volume. Or they have to slowly lift the BKC price per KB on blockchain, Iāll vote for an anti-inflation sell price for BKC, guess which side the majority shareholders will choose?
USNBT sucks because USD sucks and is going down the drain. Thatās why no one wants NBT. Hell, I donāt even want it because I see the economic collapse of the US. And I know BTC fanboys donāt want it for the same reason. USNBT would have made sense if we were able to establish NBT/BTC trading pairs in all major exchanges. It didnāt happen so there is no other reason to support that peg.
Iād propose starting a yuan peg ASAP and start marketing the shit out of it. This is why ETH and their DAO is so successful ā they play dirty and it works. Iād rather grant NBT to someone willing to market our product than to someone developing another obscure technical piece of software around Nu (by devs for devs style).
If we peg to yuan we can advertise it as the first cryptocurrency ever that is essentially backed by gold since it follows yuan. USD sucks and erryone in the bitcoinworld knows it.
We need Nu 3.0 to get multiple currencies? We should make a timeline for the multiple currencies thing. I think many people would be willing to push that to the front of the Nu dev line.
Hyena, as a man living in Yuanās world for many years, yuan also sucks, all FIAT are the same.
This government never, never think for the next government 4 years later, they always overstimulate the economics, and the bitter result tasted by next 8 or 10 years goverment, who care? They already retired! The rule was already demonstrated by Hayek, and apply for both capitalism and so called socailsm governments.
FIAT sucks! Capitalism has problem because itās not 100% capitalism so far, there are monetary monopolists, not free markets.
Chinaās yuan has more inflation rate than USD, there are more shit here. This world is disturbed by government intervention on economics because they want achievement or vote.
The group of guys who think themselves are clever than the invisible hand.
Just do what I like to do! I believe only government can stop me by canceling my internet access or sealing the software port.
