Thegrumster - our thread village idiot is incapable of joining the dots together.

Stellar has nothing to do with SatoshiPay. SatoshiPay would be one of many companies invited to the Stellar platform and given an initial credit for the purpose of bringing new customers to the network. Similar to a casino rewarding you with chips if you bring in new gamblers.

Below is the link to some of Stellar's major global partners. A company the size of SatoshiPay would not feature on it yet until its client base expands significantly.

Lol - not bad for "nothing" as you point out.

[thegrumpster] 01/1/2018 15:46

So Stellar does have something to do with Satoshipay.








From Lse:

"Satoshipay - Giving away over $21 million worth of Lumens picking up over $2 million in revenue on the way"



A nice 10% Not bad for "nothing".

oakville - the marketing support grant from Stellar to SatoshiPay is now worth about £1.4million going by the current exchange rate!

oakville - "A steal at this low level"

Stellar is not low level it currently has a market capitalisation of $7.3BN and growing. Stellar has nothing to do with SatoshiPay just as Barclays has nothing to do with any of you who hold an account with them. Increase revenue and profit at Barclays does not mean you are getting richer.

Now we agreed on New Year's Eve we would restrict our comments to BLU and SatoshiPay.

The Stellar blockchain have already proven itself as a formidable payment platform. (Just ask KlickEx and the IBM guys!) We believe that as a global store of value it will show its real strength in the years ahead.
Here’s a few key reasons why we do believe so strongly in the future of Stellar.
Its an open source, non profit platform which ensure accountability and commitment to low cost transactions.
Its scalable with transaction times fast enough to do real-time transaction — less than 5 seconds, using the Stellar Consensus Protocol.
Its simple, robust and secure with a strong track record. It does exactly what it says on the tin!
Extremely low transaction cost, and a commitment from the Stellar Foundation to regularly review and adjust these costs when needed.
While there will an expected high growth path in the short to medium term in the value of XLM, the annual 1% inflation will smooth out huge fluctuations over time leading to much more stable and sustainable growth, which are based on real world use cases rather than perception and speculation.
An extremely important factor for us when we made our original decision to select Stellar, was the fact that its a “green” environmental friendly blockchain that use no mining. We believe the issue of crypto mining, which is currently consuming huge energy in BTC, ETH and other mining operations, is something that does not receive enough attention and is simply not sustainable in the long run. Here’s an interesting example of an ETH mining rig used as a heater in Russia!!! hxxps://thenextweb.com/hardfork/2017/12/25/cryptocurrency-miner-ethereum-heater/ Consuming 1kW per hour, that’s 8760 kWh per year for ONE MINING RIG! Compare that to the average energy consumption in Uganda of 70 kWh PER PERSON per year!
After working with the Stellar team for the past 18 months and having tested the platform as part of the clic.world social banking eco-system for SACCOS’s and MFI’s for the last 6 months in Uganda, we are convinced that Stellar’s vision of becoming the future global “internet of value” where “money can be sent like email” is not only achievable, it will become a key driver shaping the future global financial landscape over the next few decades.
Oh, and its also a good coin to invest in, more than 6300% growth this year ;-)!

The cliix.co exchange also allow the ClicPay platform (expect a formal announcement on the public release of ClicPay early in the new year) to do QR based mobile payments directly between any Stellar asset and local fiat currency. In addition to accepting payments, the ClicPay merchant POSX app will also allow merchants to buy and sell XLM for cash, thereby extending the reach of the cliix exchange to even the smallest corner shop in Africa.
So, really, why would you NOT keep your money in XLM as you head off to holiday abroad?
Using XLM as a store of value have benefits for both consumers and governments. For consumers the cost and complexity of transacting locally and cross-border will be largely eliminated, and financial authorities will have better visibility over the flows of money across the economy, with much improved control over regulatory compliance.
In regions like the East African Community this will have a huge impact on cross border trade and also on inward remittances from the diaspora community.

In November 2017 Clic.World demonstrated the world’s first Stellar ATM at the Singapore Fintech Festival, seamlessly transferring cash between Stellar Lumens (XLM), Singapore Dollars (SGD) and Uganda Shillings (UGX).
Although interesting and certainly a novelty at the time, the main purpose behind building the ATM was to practically demonstrate the concept of using XLM as a global store of value for any local fiat currency. (Shipping of the first of these Stellar ATMX units are scheduled for February 2018)
Now that we can convert cash easily into and from XLM, the question is what next? Why not use XLM as the primary store of value in the first place? If I can pay a merchant in local currency directly from XLM, why do I still need to use local fiat currency (cash in the bank) as a store of value?
This concept emerged over the last year as we were building the clic.world social banking platform on the Stellar blockchain, and was first implemented in October as part of the eSACCO Plus app for the first social banking pilot in Uganda, the eSACCO
As we have demonstrated with the eSACCO Plus app, a user can now move value seamlessly between the build-in Stellar wallet and the fiat currency e-value wallet in the app, giving a member a choice which store of value they want to use, XLM or e-value backed by cash in the bank.
To do this we developed the cliix.co exchange that we have been testing successfully in Uganda for the last 4 months to allow people to buy XLM directly using MTN and Airtel mobile money using local currency (UGX).

2017 has been a good year for BLU particularly since June when the share price rise started its rise. We had a low of 0.13 in May and have been as high as 0.69 before ending the year at0.535 and a Market Cap of £10.07 Million.
We are well placed for 2018 to be transformational and for shareholders to make some serious money.
I would also like to thank FFWD for alerting me to BLU when they sold their Satoshipay stake to BLU and then sold the BLU shares they had received as payment. FFWD clearly made an error selling so quickly as they missed out on the significant rise and as a holder of FFWD that is annoying. However I know there are others who came across BLU in the same way as me and would just like to say to them that FFWD now looks poised to come into its own with an IPO of its largest investment Nuuvera taking place on January 8th.
Best wishes to all for a prosperous 2018.

In October, IBM in collaboration with Stellar.org and KlickEx Group announced a blockchain solution to enable cross-border paymentson the blockchain at reduced settlement time and cost; it is already processing live transactions in 12 currency corridors across the Pacific Islands and Australia, New Zealand and the United Kingdom.

Same to you Doodle and a Happy New Year to all BLU holders lets have a good 2018.

[doodlebug4] 01/1/2018 10:00

Happy New Year to BLU shareholders. Looking forward to the next stage of this interesting journey in 2018.:-)

I personally don't believe a listing will take place but there is still no reason why BLU can't realise monetary value from Satoshipay. It is after all a 31% shareholder therefore would be entitled to 31% of the dividends when STP becomes profitable.

The important thing now is for STP to gain traction among consumers and for us to keep our discussions down to earth and real.

[zebbo] 31/12/2017 18:20

Bottom line, for BLU it about realising value.

Satoshipay association with 2 of the hottest ICOs can only be a good thing, lets not kid ourselves. This makes a listing all the more probable due to the high profile and success of the ICOs. IMHO & DYOR

Thegrumpster

The two directors of STP Meinhard Benn and Alexander Wilke are both German and live in Germany. This is a statement from the company made on 10/12/2017



TEMPO Money Transfer as Euro gateway

"Most of our future publishers won’t know or fully understand cryptocurrencies, and they shouldn’t have to. This is why we partnered with TEMPO, a French money transfer company with a banking license, to allow publishers to be paid out via bank transfer.

TEMPO also issues a Euro token called EURT on the Stellar network. It allows to transfer asset tokens that will always be pegged to the Euro, and not fluctuate due to cryptocurrency exchange rates. We are currently exploring how we can use EURT within SatoshiPay."

In my opinion with Britain's intention to pull out of the European Union next year it is highly unlikely STP will seek a London listing with all the transaction, tariff and legal issues being out of the Eurozone would bring. Just my views.
