I think there are a few things that are awesome about the Gittip model and a few things that are flawed:
Awesome things (1) fills a huge need (2) we should be in the habit of giving back (3) promotes long-term thinking
Bad things (1) dependent on CC processing (2) weekly only (3) A bit too much Github lockin.
- jareau 13y agowhat payment method besides CC would you like to see? Bitcoin? ACH?
- Jd 13y agoSince you ask, I happen to run my own asset-backed digital currency w/ an open REST API. See profile.
- anonymoushn 13y agoI found the web site and block a little light on details. As in, there were none at all. It's not clear what benefit the Evergreen digital currency has over any other currency. Is it centralized? What does "secure" mean? What is it backed by?
- singlow 13y agoNice looking site - except for the text/background contrast. Very pretty and I enjoyed the video. Evergreen looks like a polished app experience. However, like the previous commenter, I too am curious about what the assets are and what kind of security measures it takes.
