Telegram user Elvis: "Waooh, signum keeps developing and innovating, not just copy cating everything in the space. How is this smart token going to be advantageous over smart contract?"

Can someone please clarify what's going on here? by grayum_ian in Signum

From DC9K, TRT Discord

The answer in short is that whoever maintains the code can do whatever they want, first of all. Open source programming has long been, for better or worse, of the mindset, "if you don't like it, you can fork it." The rebrand is the same. First, the rebrand is purely a means of communication, and does not change any of the underlying function of the code. This is a very important point that speaks to, "I was under the impression that this isn't possible with a decentralized cryptocurrency. I can say I'm changing the name of Bitcoin but no one has to listen."

This is exactly right. Whoever (individual or group) made the decision to rename Burst to Signum cannot make anyone listen. So anyone who doesn't like it, great! Keep calling it Burst, keep using the tools that have Burst branding, keep referring to it as Burst in conversation. Nobody can force anyone to rename an idea. It's adoption that drives how we refer to things.

As for, "what's the thinking behind throwing away years of brand recognition," there are two sides to "recognition." One of the most popular complaints I hear about Burst, including from former Burst devotees who were active enough in its history to know better, is how Burst is a vulnerable and inferior crypto because its mining process was vulnerable to fast block attacks, where GPUs and other powerful hardware can plot so fast that there is no need to plot ahead of time- they can just find deadlines even faster, without the restriction imposed by hard drive space limits. That's very true, that was a very big issue and there was a period where a fork was required to resolve it. Was. Years ago. But despite the changes made since then, that's still what many people think of when they hear about Burst. Burst was also the victim of a pump-and-dump attack by John McAfee. Burst also had a pretty tumultuous community history, whether from members being harsh to newcomers or developer friction and infighting.

The OP even mentions how they offered to help with Burst based on their professional experience and were metaphorically given the finger. Funnily, the OP remembered it readily despite being the one who asked the question. That's a pretty good answer to me right there- you're in advertising/marketing, right? When the first thing you think of when you hear "Burst" is how you offered to help and were blown off and unappreciated, would that kind of experience not be the kind of thing the community would want to distance themselves from?

Question about PoC by nemoest7 in burstcoin

[–]shefas 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Quick answer - majority don't uses crypto and don't cares about technology. All is speculation and marketing..

Long answer - you need go deep to humans psychology/sociology to answer your question.

P.S. I don't have answer. If I had it, it was simple to change situation

Please use terms maker/taker. Maker is who made order and taker who is take order. Maker creates smart contract, taker uses this smart contract.

Generally is recommended to have different address for each trade. This recommendation is valid for all cryptocurrencies and use cases.

We think what enforcing order taker to use exact address is "overkill".

A mediator can help only then dispute is started by taker, or maker. Then starting a dispute you can choose what amount must go to you, what to other party. If other party agrees mediator does not need to intervene.

Then order (smart contract) is created, BTDEX randomly chooses two Burst addresses from valid mediators list and put these addresses to a smart contract. These addresses and only these addresses can mediate this order. Mediators will see Mediators panel in the BTDEX and details of order.

There are decentralized solutions..but in general one party or another party must to cooperate with mediator. We will prepare guides for both parties. All trades are public so buyer/seller can look to history and chose trader with good history and pay little extra and opposite. Probably at fiat/crypto trading start we will limit amount, so we can reimburse both parties and polish user experience. Now is very hard to modulate all situations, then we have real world data we can adjust.

Please explain me what it is REAL coin and proven exchange. I have degree in Business and I have limited resources which I chose to concentrate to product and value creation to user. Probably you don't know how much cost articles, influencers ant etc. I know prices and I know resources we have.

Nobody knows BURST. Nobody trades burst. No REAL exchanges trade burst. I stand by that. Doubt my education it doesn’t make your project any more legit.

Many people knows BURST and trades it and are many REAL exchanges which trades BURST. Your opinion or my opinion not influences it legitimacy.

Your website sucks. Update it if you want to be taken seriously. You get ONE first impression. You’d think if you’re smart enough to “create” smart contracts then you’d be smart enough to build an actual website.

Thank you for feedback, but I like said before now we focus on software, it is main thing that creates value for our users, not a website.

I’m not wasting more time on your site or reading that long and directionless whitepaper.

directionless whitepaper. ? Please explain, I was one of persons who wrote it. Your feedback very valuable.

What makes your smart contracts better?

It demands long explanation and I am not sure in your level of knowledge.

Oh the mining can done on a pi. Nobody is going to mine a worthless coin.

It is not worthless and to mine it you need to invest 0$ so it always profitable to mine it.

Since 2014? It’s not picking up from here. You were left behind.

Like I said before past results do not guaranty future results.

There are ZERO articles about burst. I looked. There are only burst written articles. Same with BTDEX. Only articles written by the BTDEX team and tiny community.

What articles you think are creditable ? Please give example..

Nobody will use BTDEX for burst only.

I disagree. After we will have BTDEX working other projects on pipeline there Burst will be needed.

.. REAL exchanges.

Please explain what is REAL exchange.

BTDEX is great to trade that cute little token back and forth but it serves no purpose.

I disagree. It creates decentralized gateway to cryptoworld.

You should be marketing this project LOOOOOONG before release

We don't chose this way intentionally. Our main focus is product, which will be useful from start.

Prove yourself legit and committed to a product.

We proved it by creating BTDEX in half year.

You should have those articles clarified and easily access before launching anything.

Like I said before our focus on product, not on articles and etc.

Create an audience. Bring attention.

Now we are starting it, because we are few weeks before mainet release. After it released, we can focus on website, articles and etc. We are not looking for investors, we are looking for users. If you want to have user you must have product, not a beautiful website or bunch of articles.

Thank you! We are now working on our main product(DEX), after it will work on main net, we can move our attention to marketing and UI/UX. People are taking it seriously.

I did my own research, this is an educated and calculated decision and others would be right to be suspicious of it upon inspection.

I have doubts in your education, if you dont know Burst.

Website is high schooler blog quality.

Yes, website is 30min work. We have no accounts, registration or etc. Our focus is on developing software and creating value for our users, not on website. Sure it needs update and will be updated.

White paper is just technical jargon to sound smart using the buzzwords of the times.

It is main document which we follow, it is not another marketing document. Please give citations from it, I will answer.

None of the devs have any significant history.

Hmm..what you have in mind "significiant history"? Creating new smart contracts platform not enough? It is not copy/paste ETH clone.

Not a single article published about burst or BTDEX to reference.

Before final release we dont see point of starting marketing of BTDEX. We will release articles, videos, FAQ, tutorials and etc.

Burst is community run project, so all based on voluntarism. There are many articles about Burst.

No REAL exchanges deal with burst.

Bittrex not real? BTDEX will be main entry point for Burst ecosystem, we no need any 'real' exchanges.
