Barter My Funds

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


BarterMyFunds was upgraded from PHP 5 to PHP 7 and from Ubuntu 14.04 to Ubuntu 16.04.
We also replaced the "standard ELB" for an "application ELB", this is a new feature from AWS.
Application ELB's allow much greater control of the application at the ELB layer, rather than at the server level.
This takes away the use of a few servers and will therefore decrease our server bill even further.

These changes and others were made to:

-Reduce cost
-Improve reliability
-Make up for faster critical failure recovery
-Improve security
-Better future protection for unknown needs
-Better performance overall and specifically in the code

We will bring Okpay back to BarterMyFunds as soon as possible (Today/Tomorrow) and Carlos is meanwhile working on setting up another company to get us approved by Payza.
To use Payza you need to have a "Sole Proprietorship"-license, one we can't get with the company we originally registered with.
It took them 8 months to approve the documents we sent and give us this news oh oh.

Furthermore we're giving the following tasks to Kamil and they will be build asap:
-BarterMyFunds profit tool
-BarterMyFunds widgets

They were originally meant to be build by Alex, but Alex has been very busy elsewhere.
We also had to discuss the specifics of these 2 "add-ons" as it wasn't as straight forward as we initially expected.

--

We will start brainstorming our 2 way method of logging into Paidverts during the following week.
2 of our Polish programmers are running out of work very soon and will be able to pick up this project.

This 2 way method of logging in is meant to result in a number of things:

-A much cleaner overview/make it more accessible for advertisers
-An easier to understand path for the PTC-crowd which will allow them to understand the potential of offer walls and other earning opportunities within Paidverts far better.

While making these changes we also want to make Paidverts more rewarding for long term users instead of rewarding new users from the get go.

Meaning we will change the distribution of BAP on the BAP ads and come up with milestones and achievements for long term users.
The feeling of "achieving something" gets people "hooked" on your website or game.

So if you would get 18 BAP per BAP ad from the get go but you can get a (For example) 300 BAP reward when you click 100 ads and unlock an upgrade to get 19 BAP per ad from that point on, that will work far better to keep people connected to your website compared to the system we have now.

Right now people get 16 ads in the first few days and then it suddenly drops and they have nothing left to look forward to but reaching the next group.
Giving our users achievements to strive for and unlock makes it far more likely that they stick to the website.

This increases our traffic and decreases the amount of BAP that we give away to people that do NOT stick to the website.
This means that it both works in our favor and in the favor of those who stay loyal to the website.
I think that's very important as building a relationship with your users makes them far more likely to refer their friends as well.

--

During 2017 we will work far more with video material.

-We will use Youtube a lot more
-We will make all sorts of video guides for various parts of the website
-We will make video's that explain the benefits of a certain advertising product
-I will shoot video's to talk about the more important updates
-I will do live Q&A's on Facebook Live that will allow you to ask pretty much anything and will therefore make up for a more direct method to talk to the management

--

We've contacted Softgames regarding the CoinFlip Evolved video ads and they gave us an ETA of 1 week-1 month to fix their fill rate problems.
They couldn't tell for sure.
We then contacted Playwire and Ad4game, which are other advertisers that we might be able to cooperate with.
Those are the only possible solutions for now due to our limited amount of traffic.

We will have to proof ourselves first, build a few games, get consistent traffic and then we can actually cooperate with the bigger advertisers which pay far better rates.
There are no perfect solutions for now, let's hope we get positive news from either Playwire or Ad4game as soon as possible.

Is that profit tool going to work like a trading platform? I think a trading platform with charts and things would integrate well with the BMF setup.

And how many exchangers would have that. Sure they have it for bitcoin but what about the alternate currencies?

I am sorry but I didn't understand what you meant.

The profit tool is simply to track the profits made in BMF.
We never implemented such a thing as we had plenty of other things to work on and the volume of transactions was so low that we knew it couldn't be a lot.
Especially because people are/were mainly exchanging their BTC for PM and we pay them a small bonus there.

will it then be so that the profits are going to be added to the result cards automaticly and instantly or will it just be a tool for you to see the profits so you can add those manually weekly/monthly ?

I see a lot of people still looking to invest on FT which isn't no longer available but you have two projects still available to invest on the project funding page. Marketing campaign paying 130% and the new faucet paying a minimum of 120% with no maximum.

Only 4 days until the funding closes.

I was thinking something along the lines of bitstamp

https://www.bitstamp.net/

If you would put charts of prices up of the different cyber currencies I bet it would encourage people to exchange more. I suppose the risk would be you needing to be the counterparty somehow. But maybe you could make some sort of trading exchange where people could offer the bid and ask on the currencies

Tradingview is the charts most use on exchangers. Just a matter APIing it. No need to build it.

Maybe we can offer something like pax? We have a lot of users who can help with exchanging... or maybe BMF can play that role in different currencies. They often take huge fees, but as long as people pay them... why not charge 15%, right?

@ MarcdeKoning

What do you think about the possibility to reactivate investments for the FTQ? Then we might get the chance to get paid.

What you`re suggesting is to turn FTQ into a ponzi? Opening it won`t make you get paid faster, quite the opposite. It will just add more money to the debt it already has and increase the repayment time. That`s not how FTQ works.

FTQ is to be paid with the profits generated by MTV portfolio, after deducting all expenses. Investments made into FTQ are to be used on building new products, and for that we have now a much better option (Funding Page) which allows you to invest directly in those products.

The Funding Page is more fair, as every product will have a specific return time/rate and people can choose which one suits them best, or just spread their investment throughtout all projects.

FTQ will be repaid as soon as our results allow it and removed. You may consider Funding Page our FTQ  2.0 tongue

If you wish to get your FTQ paid faster, the best is to invest on Funding Page. That will allow us to build more products (and faster) so results can pick up and then, pay FTQ.

I have itchy fingers wanting to deposit more money in this. I have to slap myself into reality that I put in enough. My initial thought is to hit 3 k for sumo roll project and 6 mil for rp shares. but I will never be satisfied in long term. So it is a job for me to contain myself ! I decided I am safer by putting the rest of my money in Gold & Silver coins (pure only). Who believe Gold/Silver is the next hottest investment ? I have started a new collection with about 16 ounces of silver (silver eagles, maple leaf, and international rounds) and 1/5 ounce of  ( two 1/10 gold maple leaf coins)... I will start a new thread if gold/silver is worth discussing it .. .  I wonder if any country out there is cheaper to buy silver/gold. Any comment ?

I also suggest Marc and post any kind of post regularly in his personal Facebook profile.


Honestly, your Facebook profile quite empty lol. People actually love to see your post when you post something on Facebook. Keep posting any kind of post regarding MTV related products, increase your exposure in social media and people will know who you are, what MTV is.

I hope in near future our ceo can more actively in social network, or fully utilize the power of social media and move our business forward. Together, Let's make MTV GREAT AGAIN!!!!

I used to use my profile daily, get over 80 likes on all of my posts, but since a few months I'm not getting any exposure.

I notice people don't go to my profile for their updates anymore, so I stopped posting so often.

Hey Gizmo i hope you decide to invest on the faucet and RPs. MTV is taking great steps into a most waited future and the opportunity won't be here soon.

Nevertheless i found a seller from Europe and just sent it via PV forum pm.

Hi guys,

I don't know if this would appeal to you or maybe you would want to send one of your programmers. It might be a bit pricey also but you always say send the idea and you will decide
