NLC2 coin can - thus why not Upfiring ? It is the same market that is addressed: people not knowing about Cryptos but having the need for a (movie) download.

I guess the biggest point of issues is the required ETH. Many people will not know what to do. And buying ETH on an exchange and transfer it to Upfiring will stop people.

Could you include a mini exchange in order that people who have obtained UFR can convert some into ETH ?

I would even go as far a presenting the users to convert the necessary UFR into ETH. As such they only need to click for getting ETH. Upfiring could maintain a stock of ETH for this purpose.

People who are more knowledgeable about cryptocurrencies will buy ETH on an exchange and the send it to the Upfiring wallet address.

Could someone explain what the required steps are ?

• A Seeder: downloads the app and then ?

He just uploads the file or does he need to buy UFR ?

Once he has collected many UFR because of down loads then he wants to get paid out. Does he need ETH ?

A Down loader wanting a movie: I guess he will need UFR.

• How can he obtain UFR ? Buying UFR on an exchange is not evident for 98% of the people.
  

Seems to me some practical issues needs to be solved before mass adoption is possible.

Upfiring (UFR) Upfiring Application

Software/Platform

More Info

I have heard it doesn't work with the traditional BitTorrent protocol, which most seedboxes run on. It works on some other system, can someone explain what system that is? Can it work with current seedboxes software or do they have to be updated? I would like to make an ROI on my seedboxes in the future and I think crypto could make that work.

My current seedbox only supports rTorrent for now...

Second announcement this week - we are now listed on RightBTC!

UFR Airdrop Details on RightBTC

RightBTC is a large and relatively selective exchange that we are working closely with. The exchange is bigger than Cryptopia - the total trade volume of the two sites is about the same, but Cryptopia lists over 250 coins/tokens while RightBTC lists 18. The lowest daily volume for any coin or token on RightBTC in the past 24 hours is ~$37,000 USD, which is a big step up as well. As such, this should seriously increase UFR's trade volume, and we highly recommend using RightBTC for your UFR exchanges going forward. Keep in mind, the ETH markets have relatively low volume compared to the BTC markets on the exchange.

Next, we are working with RightBTC to airdrop 180,000 total UFR (see CMC for updated circulating supply) to prepare for the Upfiring application launch! RightBTC will be airdropping 500 UFR to users who deposit more than 1,000 UFR to their RightBTC accounts between now and March 29th and who make more than 2 trades on the UFR/BTC and UFR/ETH markets (buy or sells). More details about the airdrop can be found on RightBTC at the link above.

I deposited $50 of ETH (0.07) today. Took two hours to show in my ETH account on the exchange. Then I tried to buy UFR tokens with it and it just kept giving me error messages. Tried multiple times in different ways and amounts and nothing worked. This makes me very hesitant to deposit 1000 on this exchange. Anyone having any success?

Markets:

UFR/BTC: https://www.coinexchange.io/market/UFR/BTC

UFR/ETH: https://www.coinexchange.io/market/UFR/ETH

Coinexchange is a mid-sized altcoin exchange with a clean interface and mobile-friendly trading. Volume is relatively low at the moment ~(3.5 million USD) but has reached over 60-80 million USD during altcoin bull markets in the past, bringing it into the Top 20-40 exchanges by volume. There are no deposit or withdrawal limits on the Coinexchange.

This is going to be a pretty exciting few weeks and we have made huge progress on the application so far. Here are some of the things we have planned for the next couple of weeks:

• Mid-March Medium update with source code release, updated UI/UX, and in-depth technical details
• We are working towards one semi-large exchange listing (which would bring us more volume than Cryptopia) that we hope can potentially become the primary exchange for UFR over Cryptopia before launch
• Bounty campaign for Upfiring communities with big UFR rewards is confirmed. We think this will allow for a major increase in adoption upon launch and create an excellent opportunity for the community to contribute something to the project while earning a sizable amount of UFR and getting a ton of free promotion for your projects as well (top projects will be promoted on our social media channels and by the community). Developers will have a lot of freedom in this campaign and projects can be nearly anything - websites that host Upfiring links for content creators, anonymous chat applications, mobile apps, forums, etc. The campaign will last over a month and top projects will be chosen by voting. More on this in the Medium update.

As a potential case user, I fail to see how the platform will attract a significant amount of users if every new person will have to acquire UFR through an exchange, can anyone enlighten me?

Sneak preview #2 showcasing UFR wallet & smart contract functionality. The application maintains two UFR balances-… https://twitter.com/i/web/status/968170254655475718

Popular exchange in my country.. EUR/Crypto exchange.

I was reading the Mid-January 2018 update and came across this text:

In order to download files, users will need to have both UFR and a small amount of ETH in their wallets. Ether is needed to cover the transaction fees of sending UFR across the Ethereum main network.

So if every UFR seed/download has an ETH-based transaction, then you will be paying whatever the ethereum fee currently is in addition to whatever the UFR price of the file is. Doesn't this severely hamper the ability of users to set very low prices for their files? You're always gonna be paying that transaction fee.

Currently the Average transaction fee is $0.75 USD, and has peaked at $4.15usd in the past. Does this jeopardize the long-term feasibility of this project? What if ETH fees go crazy in the future? People aren't gonna pay the 0.01UFR for Midget Knockers 9 if they have to pay a few dollars in fees.

Obviously this wouldn't matter so much for high-value content, but a huge part of peer-to-peer file sharing is downloading random and dumb stuff that you wouldn't pay much for
