I find myself wanting this every morning. How long ago did you start the app? It seems like the perfect time to launch it being that everyone is home. I just bought it and will be using it tomorrow AM. Works great.

Interesting point. Can you imagine how the attitude around facebook would change instantly if they started profit sharing with their users?

The comment you are replying to mentions more than a diversity goal. It mentions a financial incentive for hiring minorities. Can you give an example of how that would not create discrimination?

You hit the nail on the head. These types of discussions are sensitive because remote work is sometimes considered to be an opportunity to improve working conditions worldwide and people don't take kindly to push-back on that. Our star

Final update on this thread: We are back on Google Play with no explanation or retraction of threats to related accounts if we get suspended again. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=app.getloaded....

The game is a mix of skill and luck. The reward is not affected by your game performance —- win or lose you receive the same loyalty points. Thats what makes it neither a game of skill or gambling.

Update on this thread: Google just removed our suspension and asked us to resubmit the app. We have done so and are waiting to hear back. I've learned a lot from this post on Hacker News about the general feeling people have about Bitc

Right now the other source is Coinbase referrals -- they have a referral program for new users that we onboard. You can google it to see how it works.

We did both. I was being asked about specific reviews and where I think they came from.

Edit: one other point on this. A lot of people are curious about Bitcoin and have never owned any. This is why they are happy. Imagine if there was this futuristic currency you heard about on the news and then someone said to you "You

Right, my red flag is just why does a suspended app cause them to threaten us in regards to shutting off our G-Suite email and cloud servers unrelated to the app. No sane business can use their platform with those kinds of threats.

You're correct we did not buy reviews, what I meant is that we paid for very targeted marketing on day 1. We did not buy reviews EVER.

True for any app company really but true it's a weak point of our offering at the moment. Startups tend to rely on another product early on, then de-risk as they grow which is our plan.

We don't mine Bitcoin on users resources this is a witch hunt. I have nowhere mentioned mining and our app does not mine. Mining only works with huge ASIC farms mostly in China with cheap power. We are not involved in this at all. Our

We did not buy any users that is a misinterpretation of my point that we have reviews on day 1 because we paid for advertising. Our app doesn't mine on their phone -- phone mining is not profitable at all.

Real users made those reviews. You're twisting my words. Marketing is how you get users in the app on the first day. We did launch day advertising. It's normal.

sebastien_b got my point -- we paid for advertisement and that resulted in reviews. Why is that hard to believe?

You haven't even tried to understand what we do and you've made a ton of false accusations in the process. We're 100% compliant with Google policies I think you just aren't familiar with the rules in this regard there ar

"meaningful amount" -- the app rewards users in a very small amount we're very clear about that. There's no contradiction there. You can withdraw even a fraction of a penny on the first day we're not hiding anything

Google allows games that reward in real world value. They don't allow gambling. We were not suspended for violating the gambling terms because our app includes no gambling at all and no games of skill. We give away money to all users a

It's not a "game of skill" or gambling look into Skillz or World Winner you're not familiar with the terminology being used here those are very specific things. The term from Apple you're mentioning came about becau

They are similar although the assumptions about what the game entails written by joecool1029 are absolutely false. joecool1029 has not even read the description clearly let alone seen the game in action. Lots of false accusations from this

What terms does it violate? We have read them all in detail. I'll wait.

Right this is a nightmare example. You get too far into Google and it feels OK, until it's not and then you realize it.

You can cash out on the first day -- you're making assumptions without trying the app. What you're saying is false. Edit: Also regarding the reviews on a new app it's called marketing you should look into it. What you do is,

There is no gambling in the app you're assuming a lot without trying the app. You earn the exact same amount of points on every level -- those points are convertible to Bitcoin -- did you even read the description? Edit 1: Regarding th
