Bulletin #130
Special invitation from Sean Worthington
Hello All CloudCoiners:

Would you like to help me and others build an absolutely fair and ethical monetary system?

I invite all CloudCoin fans to directly support the work of programmers and developers by becoming a GitHub CloudCoin sponsor .

This sponsorship could very well revolutionize our operations by financing what has, up until now, relied on volunteers remunerated only in CloudCoin.

We will be able to complete formation of our Swiss Verein (non-profit association) and be an official, legal entity.

That will allow us to be listed on escrowed exchanges like Coinbase, Kraken, Bitstamp and others.

Then we can do more marketing with partners like CoinTelegraph to further raise awareness.

I personally became the first sponsor by pledging $100 per month at GitHub and have been humbled and gratified to see many others join as well.

GitHub is the world's largest suite of tools for open source developers and we're thrilled to be part of their sponsorship program .

I am kindly asking everyone who can, to become a sponsor. A little money from each of us will really add up. If you want to support our cause, help us spread the word to find additional sponsors.

Please visit and share this link with anyone who wants to promote financial freedom and monetary independence.

Your ongoing donation of $100, $30 or even just $5 a month will go a long way.

Digitally Yours,
Sean H. Worthington
President/Lead Scientist
CloudCoin Consortium

Are you interested in how CloudCoin and the underlying RAIDA technology meshes with new trends in financial technology (FinTech)?

Check out the first two installments of the " RAIDA Technology: From Global FinTech to Everyone " series by our resident FinTech expert, Adrian Niculescu .


CLOUDCOIN trading on more decentralized exchanges
CLOUDCOIN tokens are now trading on two more exchanges within the Bitshares ecosystem with focus on localized users.

GDEX is primarily a Chinese-language exchange, while RuDex caters to Russian speakers.

Like the existing Bitshares and XBTS exchanges, the CLOUDCOIN token traded on XBTS is not actual CloudCoin. The token can be obtained by exchanging actual CloudCoin and redeemed for actual CloudCoin.
Do you have what it takes to be a RAIDA Guardian?
RAIDA Guardians operate proxy servers to make RAIDA more reliable and robust, and they can receive 100,000 CloudCoins for participating.

Guardians are a vital part of CloudCoin's global effort to create a perfect monetary system that will increase the freedom and prosperity of everyone, while helping combat authoritarian governments who rely on currency manipulation for their existence.

If you are interested in becoming a Guardian, please sign up here for more information and an invitation to a members-only Telegram group.
Guest Column: Wouldn't it be nice if BTC could do this?
by Bryan Cooper
CloudCoin Consortium Member

Here is a list of things that I wish bitcoin could do:

  1. Be 100-percent anonymous, not just pseudo-anonymous due to a public ledger. I want REAL financial privacy!
  2. Handle at least five million transactions per second, not just seven per second, because then it could handle the world's transactions all at one time.
  3. Be quantum computer safe so I wouldn’t have to worry that my bitcoin was possibly going to be hacked!
  4. Have NO FEES to send my bitcoin out, but that’s just not the case with any DLT as far as I know. 
  5. Be imported into video games and other apps.
  6. Have speed of confirmation in milliseconds, so I could buy my Starbucks or any other purchase fast. But bitcoin has to get three confirmations from the miners on the blockchain and retail can’t wait.
  7. I would like that if I lost my bitcoin, I could get my bitcoin back!
 
Guess what? Bitcoin doesn’t (and never will) do any of those things, but there is a digital currency that does! It’s the first “Cloud Currency” and does not run on a DLT/blockchain.

Yes, bitcoin is valuable, yet it cannot do any of those things. But CloudCoin can! Here is a great comparison between CloudCoin and bitcoin

CloudCoin covers all the bases! Don’t get left in the dust on this one. BTC is good but it’s antiquated technology already 10-plus years old. We welcome you to come in, the water is warm, and to get up to date.  Download your Cloudcoin SkyWallet today!
Earn CloudCoins & $$$ as a RAIDA Detection Agent
There are still slots remaining for people interested in becoming founding RAIDA Detection Agents .

Operators of these units help make the RAIDA network stronger, faster, and more secure. Operators earn a portion of network traffic revenues, as well as a bonus paid in CloudCoins. Be advised, however, there are a limited number of special "Founders" opportunities available and there are now several clients ready to create traffic on the DA network.

There is also a referral program where you can become a Detection Agent, with zero licensing fees, simply by referring potential operators.

Email for more information about becoming a Detection Agent operator or joining the referral program.

Happy Star Wars Day
"May The Fourth Be With You" on Monday, May 4, which is international Star Wars Day .

The date is an intentional pun on the saga's mantra "May the Force be with you."

Disney, which has owned the film and television franchise since 2012, is celebrating May 4 with discounts, offers and an early digital release of the Star Wars Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker on the Disney+ streaming service.

Since 1977, the franchise has inspired fans with the stories of committed rebels fighting against evil, tyrannical overlords, much like CloudCoin supporters are battling the dominant global monetary system.
