Sure, it can even with the same Smart Contract as Ethereum using Counterparty.
It's just not done like that, or show me Bitcoin's Crowdfunding calendar, let me show you the hundreds there are for Ethereum...
Not to mention, both are doomed with very high fees.
I own both, but there are many improvements to go :)
Litecoin actually did last night, more volume than Bitcoin, the fees were almost nothing! I actually did send an LTC transaction last night, so much fun not to be stupid and take advantage of this revolution instead of just sitting around like a troll calling it a bubble :D

Decentraland probably had 2 investors, Tezos god knows... So yeah it's not that unheard off in the ICO market.
It's almost predictable how people will respond here to a comment like this...
You're 100% right.
I cannot believe is only 3 pages do you really need 3 authors to do that?
At least this kind of academia wont be replaced because their work is worthless, thus we have no interest into automating it.
Ugh... I find it disgusting...
You're not a programmer, right?
Cloud solves everything guys!!! Yes buy more Cloud now that's 10% down in the exchanges lol...
How about 0 fees?
Try Steem (almost Steam lol), it's meant to do that https://steemit.com their site is a social network where people get pay on Steem that isn't trying to phish for your personal data.
Ugh I cannot find the demo, I think it might be a different project :/ I can only see the nodejs node.
I can’t answer that question, it does implement server and client and the demo does try to download the whole blockchain on your browser (I’m not sure who has the bandwith to play with that demo)
It’s tho in production use and many people like the project cause it’s a full node implementation.
Awesome project!
Your cat looks like mine :)
Also, for the JavaScript fans: http://bcoin.io/ it's actually a full node implementation that can run in the browser (can if you have time and space for the blockchain).
Ethereum hashing algorithm is optimized to be ASIC resistant, in other words you can mine it with GPU and CPU, a more accessible kind of hardware (in fact home hardware).
That's not an inefficiency, it's if anything more efficient with GPU.
The transaction problem applies to both, regardless of the mining algorithm.
The fact that I don't remember my mom ever buying us toys (dad was absent) I can say that it does make you creative.
I remember getting a few broken GI Joe from my cousin, with those, I used a screwdriver to pick up the good parts of them, and make good toys with weird arms and legs. These were supposed to be garbage but as usually having less stuff makes you more creative and I ended up with a few toys that nobody else had!
Everything, if you could, you would outsource everything, and just jump around one and it'd be so much fun.
Or a startup could be paying for customers more than the customers pay them? And still IPO right? E.g.: Groupon?
Who was born first the chicken or the egg?
And Ethereum did a crowdsale. On Counterparty and Ommi.
It’s literally in the first paragraph of their Wikipedia article:
>> Ethereum was proposed in late 2013 by Vitalik Buterin, a cryptocurrency researcher and programmer. Development was funded by an online crowdsale between July and August 2014.[5] The system went live on 30 July 2015, with 11.9 million coins "premined" for the crowdsale.[6] This accounts for approximately 13 percent of the total circulating supply
Ummm doesn’t a regular VC founded startup that IPOs does the exact same thing?
Some of them without even making money... actually loosing money!
That's why Altcoins moved out of SHA-256 since Doge and Namecoin days.
Find a coin in the top 100 that's not a Bitcoin fork and uses SHA256.
For Christmas, I'm giving books and I'll write a paper wallet seed in a page with some BTC in it already.
Hah probably some VC :D, really think about it.
Just tumble your coins, you'd need a super computer to find where they go. That's what things like Monero automatically do.
>> "Yes, I know they are bigger but I can assure you that if you ask random people in my country most would know NASDAQ while very few would know CME"
Just go out to a target and ask 5 people... Unless you live on mars already.
Or get a Shift Card (partner of Coinbase) and buy some nice coffee or gas or plane tickets... Everything is useless if you're a moron ;-).

Facebook is a phishing website.
Or fracking that makes us drink contaminated water.
But the HN community wants something like "Proof of planting a tree" or something like that...
Take a look at "Proof of Space" and "Proof of Time" by https://chia.network/
That's the definition of a logo.
Hah, setting the example himself I remember him yelling / and cursing at an Uber driver in NYC, very ethical.
Good luck and I hope you're doing it for the money, cause nobody should buy the "Uber is an ethical company" bs.
