Re: ESL Coin Project Overview
Thanks for letting me know about your project, Dave. Very interesting!
Still, after watching both videos and reading through the comments, I think you might be limiting the potential benefits of having a new coin, and even its scope, by focusing only on ESL tuition.
Like Mike, I'm assuming your plan is to pay teachers, tutors, etc in ESL Coin that will eventually increase in value as students buy it. (Please correct me if I'm wrong there.) This is similar to the LTBcoin model, with service providers on one side and consumers on the other to a large extent. In your case, I think you could one up that and take advantage of the fact that a lot of adults who want to improve their English also have something to teach, be it their own language or any other area of expertise.
Allow me to take you on a slight tangent here and if it doesn't resonate with you, that's alright. One of my very first thoughts while watching your original video was what if this was Tuition Coin, instead of ESL Coin? For example, an engineer who wanted to improve his English could trade math or engineering tuition for English tuition, all online, with the coins being used as a unit of account. This would not just help attract more people to create the initial market and community, but it would also make it easier to have a wider initial distribution, which is a plus for any coin.
Interested parties teach their areas of specialization and initially get paid from the coin distribution. Soon enough, highly-demanded teachers will be able to command a 'bonus' that the student pays from their own Tuition Coin, with that playing out according to market forces. And eventually, as the initial distribution winds down, the student will be the one to pay the full cost of their classes, while still having the chance to teach something else if they have the time and skills.
Once you have a good user base mostly made up of people who are both students and teachers, it will be easier to attract third parties that are either, or (such as younger students and schools) and persuade them to buy the coin to pay for tuition or receive it as payment.

Re: 10k LTBcointest Giveaway! Post your counterwallet address and I'll send you coin!
I just sent some test coins to the latest request.
Mutatu said: Have received my LTB cointest thank you. What can I do with them now? Can we use them to tip? On LTB?You can only send them to testnet addresses and as test coins, these are like Monopoly money, so not really useful for tipping. The idea is to try out Counterwallet, learn about what's possible and join in as we discuss how LTBcoin will work and build the infrastructure to make it happen.

Re: The 24-hour auction selling seats on Saturday's hangout for LTBCOINTEST begins now!
Sent you a PM a little while ago. Sorry it's a bit late but there are free seats anyway at the moment. ;)
Edit: the plan is to build an automated system to handle this where you would send the token and get your invite.Posted on March 29, 2014 at 4:34 PM

You will get them back when the order expires, coinaldo. xnova is looking into the issue, so please leave the order up if possible.
Here is Mike's order too: http://i.imgur.com/P6A3DaE.jpg
The hangout is at the same time as the previous ones - 9am LA time.Posted on March 29, 2014 at 11:58 AM

How many of you had bids at closing? Only one bid for 51 LTBCOINTEST got serviced.
There were also some issues that I've reported to xnova.Posted on March 29, 2014 at 12:10 AM
