NEW YCOMBINATOR BACKED ICO, GET THE FUCK IN

don't see any mention of it anywhere

seems scammy as fuck

What do you think of Jordan Peterson's self authoring program and the plans he's mentioned about creating a vast online resource of courses and instructors for the humanities?

From a business perspective of course. You can say what you think of it ethically as well, if you want.

If it makes you a lot of money please send 1%:

Basically a blockchain for storing university grades anonymously. Start a foundation and shill it to unis all over the world, at least a dozen will agree to participate just to score points.

Market is as an anti-discrimination measure by saying grades can be audited and used to publicly determine if universities are intentionally giving women/minorities bad grades. Universal credit system can be used on the blockchain with some basic AI to allow for people to switch universities easily by having the AI look at all the grades across different subjects instead of just a simple GPA. E.g. I did well in Chem and physics but failed bio but I should be able to get into materials engineering.

It would be a secure, fraud/tamper resistant way to prove your grades to businesses using your private key. (Many people commit grade fraud.)

I’ll post an email tmrw using this trip code if anyone wants to work on this with me. I have 10k of seed capital and a lot of ideas so it’d be better to have me on your team. I just want a small cut of the millions you’ll make.

What I haven’t revealed, and is the truly genius part btw is what gives the tokens value. And it’s a brilliant system, honestly.

Great idea. Go for it user. Do it! Just start with a name. I'll start for you: Gradecap. Score store. Gradechain. Secugrade. Unicoin.

I actually hadn't even heard of this before you mentioned it, desu. Looks a bit scammy on a brief pass, the marketing alone is not normal for tried and true educators who typically don't know their foot from their ass when it comes to marketing/building websites. When you do see companies that have the marketing side together (General Assembly is a good example), they aren't as fucking cryptic as this guy. I can't even tell what he's selling...

Oh also, it's funny to me that these dudes (the ICO) compare themselves to Lynda, who got bought by LinkedIn for an absurd $1B a year or two ago and have since been a fucking BAG that LinkedIn is holding. Their whole plan was to move into credentialing which would be relevant to recruiters, then they realized that they were in WAY over their heads and have all but abandoned Lynda support. These fuckers don't even know the industry they just raised $4MM to get into. Amazing. I'm actually angry about this, I don't like people dicking around in the ed space.

durr is it that employers pay in token to validate applicants grades

No, but that is pretty clever, no my system is far better.

seems scammy as fuck and the devs want to pump it. definitely in

That's the spirit.

My man!

Fuck it I'm in too!

Upcoin gives you 500$ (in trading fees) and Legitcoin will give you 10$ in tokens. Legitcoin is a very controlled distributed coin(a manipulated coin). Can't say anything good about the other two.

affiliate.cryptodealer.io/affiliate

Cryptodealer is a typical: sell my products and you get 50% of it because you did the hard job of actually selling it.

...

That's a pretty fucking good idea user

Pending Balance
EDU
24,000

Pending for like 5 hours now, after 1000+ confirmed TX on etherscan WHAT DO

Make it 10M hard cap, easy 100x.

I can see it actually surviving as a product, it's better than any other token I know of.

Hmmm some people in the telegram are having the same issue and have been advised to wait.

Maybe you could try asking there as well?

t.me/liveeduico

this could be like aigang. they were only on bancor for a while before going on kucoin. 20x from ico when added to ku.

Bought 1 ETH, gonna shill it on biz in a few months and sell for 10 ETH.

They are using the token for governance which imo is a valid use case for a token.

They want to allow people to vote for the content that creators make, kinda meh desu, but whatever.

The good stuff is that they already have a product up and running which is way more than the coins that we see now which are just billion dollar whitepapers. Also they look to be running a strong marketing campaign.

They mixed up the cryptocurrency and AI pictures

They have a real product that you could spend the coins on so it's not a scam. You'd probably be getting it on a discount. I just have no desire to pay for something that I can't test out without giving my credit card.

They don't seem to have anything for free. If they're touting themselves as an advanced learning platform - with apparently 15% of their funds paying for people to create premium lessons - I don't get why I can't see beginner projects for free.

I feel like if Paul Graham were looking at this, he'd tell them to make the first half of at least some of their projects free.

Not him, but it sounds great. He has a pretty massive reach right now, team of 4 PhD's , and seems sincere.

It's just that there are only 4 programs right now (with at least some divided) and they're all behind a pay wall.

Successful self help projects seems to do a lot of content marketing to promote their paid stuff

Even the personality test at understandmyself.com/ is paid.
Maybe I'm a biased jew, but this just seems to be how the ecosystem works. I'm sure it appeals to his fans regardless.

It seems like a terrible idea to me but, again to reference YC proverbs - all of the best ideas seem like shit initially (or else they'd already be done)

Maybe give this a watch
startupschool.org/videos/13

I don't think that would even require AI btw. Just a regular algorithm that pegs classes to eachother.

I'm be up to bounce ideas regardless

You can't even spend the coins on buying lessons?

That's pretty weak

Na, they allow that too but I just left it out cause it seems pointless when you could just accept ETH for payment instead.

How much gwei and gas limit?
Always send a ton of gwei and gas limit on executing contracts you don't know nothing about.

Just sent mine and already see tokens in my dashboard.

Oh wait, I think they planned on using Bancor for seamless token conversions. I havn't really looked into bancor so idk.

I dont want my grades in a public blockchain wtf lol

how to get the tokens in the metamask?

look at their fucking twitter.
8,842 followers, just a few likes on what they've posted.
its a scam, will never hit a decent exchange, creates instant bagholders.

means it will appear here bancor.network/discover and you can buy/sell for any listed (and eth) with metamask

Do I look like a telegram cuck?
You have to wait them distribute the tokens first ofc.
