Must admit I'm tempted to add a few more as well apf.

[apfindley] 02/6/2017 08:06

Just topped up.Showing as a sell but never mind.

[errollc] 01/6/2017 13:13

Not sure when people will sit up and listen. Maybe only once Satoshipay is actually listed...seems the sensible thing to do. Blue Star has hinted at it before so let's see.

[doodlebug4] 01/6/2017 12:22

Noticed that errollc - a nice L buy and cheap as chips at that price.:-) Once the message gets out to a wider audience here then I think there will be a few more buys like that - SatoshiPay are usually very good at keeping their company news flowing.

[errollc] 01/6/2017 12:10

Decent buy just now...seller cleared (for once?)

[errollc] 31/5/2017 16:25

A good raise...at the offer price as of this morning!
Excellent news.

[hazl] 31/5/2017 16:23

YES ENJOYED apfindley's post s agreed.

[apfindley] 31/5/2017 16:12

200k raised at 0.14Not bad, Only what the price was a couple days ago. Keeps the finances healthy whilst the price creeps upwards.

[doodlebug4] 31/5/2017 15:53

I think it's like a lot of new ideas hazl, some people are a bit sceptical to begin with and then there's a point where all the pieces of the jigsaw fall into place.

Here's the live link to apfindley's article - also worth reading;

[hazl] 31/5/2017 15:42

Worth looking at above. post 173 incorporating bitcoin... the author says at the end it's awesome!
Assuming it's independent that's good .
Anyway I still found it useful the described journey and how it works.

I haven't tried it myself however.

Just bringing forward my post from the other day, for newcomers who may have missed it....... 05/may/2017"As the IoT connects things like light bulbs in a home and integrates them into the network, the bulbs themselves may be able to negotiate the most favorable price for electricity from competitive power grids. Visa envisions a lightbulbs paying for electricity only when they consume it. And rather than a single payment, the bulb pays continually and incrementally. This will require a new type of currency for ultra-tiny transactions. The digital currencies Bitcoin or Ethereum's Ether may work for this, as well as paying for tiny chunks of bandwidth, storage, or CPU time in a computer, or energy and sensor data. Visa Europe is running a trial of such micropayment systems with Berlin-based SatoshiPay."hTtp://www.publicgaming.com/PGRI/index.php/news-categories/innovation/991-the-fin-ternet-of-things-how-connectivity-is-changing-the-face-of-financeThe article is very much worth reading. .

I SEE SATOSHI gets a mention.

New Functionality Combines PayPal Payments with Android Pay Authentication
Posted on May 30, 2017 by Alex Perala

Google and PayPal are further deepening their partnership with new functionality that will essentially combine Android Pay authentication with PayPal payments.

New Functionality Combines PayPal Payments with Android Pay AuthenticationFor end users, it means that when they’re shopping through Google’s Chrome mobile browser, they can pay with a quick fingerprint scan whenever merchants accept PayPal as a payment option. There is no need to log in or enter financial information, because all of the relevant data is loaded through Google’s Android Pay mobile payments platform. The payment itself, meanwhile, goes through the user’s PayPal account.

While the customer enjoys increased convenience, PayPal and its merchant partners may get to see better sales performance by skipping over the hurdle usually presented by the entry of payment information, passwords, and the like. It’s less clear what Google gets out of the deal. The company may be hoping that it will encourage PayPal users to set up Android Pay accounts for the smoother transaction process; or it’s possible that PayPal is giving it a certain cut of any transaction fees, though this was not outlined in a blog post from PayPal announcing the functionality.

The move comes soon after the companies announced last month that PayPal would appear as a payment option in the Android Pay app.

Thank you for your views on Satoshipay and I agree the potential is HUGE - as apfindley describes.:-) I also like the potential in Sthaler, although perhaps not quite as huge.

RTO into BLU is better than Consilium; BLU seems a perfect fit.
The existing portfolio can be sold over time and help fund Satoshipay...not forgetting the portfolio is not valued by the market currently (in terms of market cap).
Taking a step back and looking at the way the world/internet is headed Satoshipay makes all kind of sense.
If Satoshipay is even 5% as good as it seems, a bigger company will come and buy it.

[apfindley] 30/5/2017 22:41

And no comments on the article I posted the other day about satoshi collaborating with Visa. It's a perfect fit as visa can't viably process little payments, but they can process payments Into a satoshi wallet, which can then deal with the micro payments. Anyway, what caught my eye in the article was not so much visa, but rather the talk of IoT (Internet of things)... All devices, no matter how small, but connected to the Internet. The vision of oneday, satoshi being used by 'smart' light bulbs (and of course many other things in your house) making that communication over your WiFi, to pay in real-time, your electricity In micro payments as and when the device uses leccy. It's going to be HUGE.

[apfindley] 30/5/2017 22:33

They wouldn't dispose, or need to. The best option for listing would be BLU not coin.It would be an rto. It could even stay unlisted. But remember what I mentioned the other day about Google. Satoshis technology is a direct threat to the viability of Google ads. as websites would be able to monetise their content on a micro level, Instead of relying on the revenues of Google ads. And we all know what Google do with both Competitiors and threats......They BUY them, to either remove and close down the threat, or to profit from them.

[cyberbub] 30/5/2017 22:12

Well an RTO would be even more interesting!Would they go with Blu rather than Coinsilium? AIM is certainly a more liquid market than NEX. And Blu owns more of Satoshi than Coinsilium.I guess we will have our answer if Blu start to dispose of all other investments?

[errollc] 30/5/2017 19:18

I know institutions are starting to look at the sector...and banks are busy funding block chain already. This is the start of an exciting time for Satoshipay. I'd get on with a reverse/IPO asap.

[cyberbub] 30/5/2017 18:14

Would be nice if you're right apfindley. I suspect Satoshi may need quite a few millions more to finally make the breakthrough. But, as you say, future funding rounds should hopefully be at higher valuations, so less dilution. I'm just aware that most strategic investors do take a large initial stake because they expect to be diluted down to a certain extent.I bought a few today and will be happy enough if we get to my 2.5p, never mind your implied 5-10p range!GLA NAI

[doodlebug4] 30/5/2017 17:21

Some nice buying today. I think quite a few FFWD shareholders have bought in here recently. I've bought two small tranches so far and will be adding on the journey back up to 0.3p.

[hazl] 30/5/2017 15:44

Am pleased to see some fresh interest here.

[roofer2] 30/5/2017 07:36

Problems that satoshipay solve.

[errollc] 29/5/2017 22:18

I agree, the easiest route to market is for Blue Star to buy the remaining 80%...that would be very exciting. Then the market would sit up and listen more.
