RE: Utopian: Proposing @utopian-io as a Witness. What Do You Think?

in #utopian-io7 years ago

Have you considered doing an ICO using a BitShares or Ethereum token and then transferring that to a Utopian SMT once those are done? Similar to what EOS is doing? I agree that you need more funding short-term but as I said I'm not sure running a witness server is going to really provide the funding you need.

Sort:  

I did @yabapmatt but without being able to create accounts directly from Utopian really makes little sense to start an ICO. I am trying to convince @ned to help us on that but I am a solitary wolf and I will do whatever I can to grow the power of Utopian with or without the help of Steemit. My main mission now is to fund the creation of the accounts and I am doing that by:

  • Posting curated contents from @utopian-io in order for the account to gain more author rewards
  • Seeking funds from Steemit
  • Proposing the account as witness

We need to be able to create accounts ASAP or Utopian may not survive when the other ICOs that will probably make millions by selling the tokens.

@elear what ICO's do you mean?

This is one @therealwolf fundrequest.io

ah ok - well. The site is not something I'd call an artwork. In contrast - utopian looks amazing and when the new landingpage is designed .. will be even more amazing.

But I understand your worry - as you have invested so much energy and time already and you want your project to succeed.

I see - I guess I was saying open an ICO first to the Steem community and see how much you can raise there. Hopefully then you might have enough to open the ICO up a little bigger and make accounts for the new investors, and then it could potentially/hopefully snowball from there.

I would definitely invest some STEEM into a Utopian pre-ICO at least!
