PR-X Coin - Promotion Experiment


Guest

Recommended Posts

Several days ago, Jon Holmquist asked the open question about how to 'promote' his new token 'PRX'. While I have several ideas, I think we should first define the problem / opportunity space. I see the opportunity as the following:

  1. Adoption - everyone in crypto land is seeking adoption
  2. Demonstration of technological features - features such as multi-sig exist but are rarely used
  3. Global coverage - by definition the applications are not language or nation state centric
  4. ...

Groups of interested parties:

  1. Network / ICO operators such as Ripple
  2. Wallet developers
  3. Fintech's who want to move prices
  4. Advertizers
  5. ...

There appears to be an intersection of interests:

  1. Crypto 'companies' advertise for conferences, wallets, papers, and ICOs - they are seeking engagement
  2. Network operators are seeking new transaction types, volume and demo of unique features
  3. Wallets, exchanges and gateways are seeking user base
  4. ...

What is common to all is that 'Advertizing' and 'promotion' is necessary using conventional methods:

  1. email
  2. web spots
  3. Twitter
  4. ...

It may be the case that PR-X (promotion for X purpose) could be used to:

  1. Incentivize traditional ad recipients / eyeballs... to click through... in order to gain a reward... maybe PRX or maybe an alt-coin tied together via contract of sorts. From an Advertizing perspective (subject to controlling abuse) the ad has been received and read when clicked through. Further it may be the case, that simply clicking through does not actually yield a 'payment' but rather simply opens/creates a contract that if properly completed in the future, then yields the payout. 
  2. 21.co sort of has this model wherein they want to implement transactional URLs that when used payout. My initial idea not this but a contract that initiate a payment mechanism... requiring further engagement with the advertisers product. The further engagement would constitute more awareness than what is currently possible with ads today. Example, I get conference notifications that I delete in email. If I was incentivized to click through my eye-balls would see more of the content. It could be a sequence of five slides and or a video... that when complete would payout, subject to I am not a robot techniques. Further, the conference item could be added to my calendar and then later remind me of the event. It may be that, at that point a payout could be made.

Computing for Humanity or whatever the Jed project was called wherein CPU cycles for VM execution were donated... was successful.

rPRX holders could donate some of their holdings to a project that would fund it... for limited time or amount.

it would appear to compete with Golem, FileCoin and GridCoin.

Unfortunately Boinc does not run in iOS but does on Android.

As an experiment it might be interesting to limit IP Addresses to 'non 1st world' countries.

This approach would differentiate the experiment. Further, it might be worthwhile to limit Boinc clients to mobile devices thereby thwarting potential abuse.

One client - One IP Address

I think the biggest thing we can do right now is make a faucet for people to get free access to some PRX.

I think one use case could be for using rPRX for testing products that use Ripple IOUs.

agree 100%

i bought some and happy to redistribute in whatever way works -- no tech skills tho so no idea how to make a faucet

It may be that the Gateway people would volunteer to run Faucet and/or other re-Distribution strategies, the gateways should benefit from the growth in wallets and transactions.

In fact, gateways could play a role in launching Ripple ICOs.

Hi @JonHolmquist,

I have some rPRX and I am web developer.

I like the idea of rPRX and I would like to participate to distribute more PRX coins.

As I am creating a crypto website just for fun, at the moment is in testing stage and I would like to share with you all, http://torpedrodesigns.com/picacoin/.

Basically is a dashboard to calculate how much Worth your wallet in case you have crypto in different webs, platform exchanges, etc. etc.

I thought that we can send for free some PRX to the people are using the web. In this case, I am making known my project and your one and more people could do the same with their projects and work together. On the other hand, we can add something more focus to rPRX in the web and add more containers, graphs, info. etc..

Regards

Hi @RADDlSH,

as a raddish you are you should know the answer.....

As I said  it is in "TESTING STAGE" and  it is working at the moment with coinmarketcap API.

In my opinion, we need more promotion and create a system to avoid the  trust line manually in places as Gatehub. Must to be something more simple.

Anyone know how to set up a faucet?

What about avoiding the manual trust line process?

I will try to investigate about as soon as possible.

Keep in touch.
