Identity verification.
-
I love the idea of buying/selling to verified community members.
Well, I'm not selling yet, but I would like to participate for future.
-
@Focus said in Identity verification.:
Haitch, may we make this a requirement to start a new asset?
I agree as well
-
@Focus I'd like to, but I can't make it a requirement. But I would strongly recommend that people who want to launch assets identify themselves this way, and utilize the IPO escrow insurance I talk about here: https://forums.burst-team.us/topic/2353/insurance-asset
Verified identity and IPO funds locked in an escrow will give people a lot more confidence in new asset issuers.
-
@haitch Great Idea. How do we direct message you, is that using chat or something else?

Perhaps make a post in the https://forums.burst-team.us/category/6/asset-exchange about this service and pin it to the top. This way others will know up front that this is what we will look for before investing into an asset.
-
@socalguy The Insurance Asset post is pinned, and I'll look at making another one with recommended asset issuer quidelines.
-
@RichBC yes - the chat feature from the dropdown when you go to my account
-
Even if it can't be a requirement, it will soon be mandatory for any serious asset issuer to dox themselves by this process. Excellent initiative if you ask me :)
-
@RichBC thanks for becoming the first member to verify themselves.
-
I hope all the best asset issuers like @jervis, @nameless, @Focus, @Zeus, @rapidfireman and the other ones do this part 1. Will be great to the new guys at Burst.
-
I guess i could do it again.... the thing is that a bunch of people already know who i am and some even hold my identity and all that. But hell, i'll do it here as well soon enough. I just hate mailing shit, and especially all the way from Europe to NZ... oh well, it shall be done.
-
Until I get a label printer, addresses will be handwritten - please excuse my horrible scrawl ........ ;-)
-
@nameless I'm a Kiwi, but I'm not in NZ - you'll be mailing to the US :)
-
@haitch worry not about your scribbles :) . i think i last wrote by hand in highscool... some time passed since, so expect the same from me when the time comes
-
@nameless I was 13 before I found out I need glasses, I blame my horrible scribble on the fact I couldn't see .............. :)
-
@haitch amazing service :D I want to have that in my assets :D
-
@Zeus Thanks - don't know why I didn't think of it years ago - Identity Verification adds so much additional trust.
-
@haitch I talked about the idea of an escrow site for documents one or two months ago... I think it was after the DDOS SCAM! Of course i didn't had the reputation to make it, and i think i still don't have it xD
Glad you had this idea too and made this possible?!
EDIT: here is the link: https://forums.burst-team.us/topic/1308/major-scams-on-asset-exchange/10 xP

@gpedro credit is given where it is due :) . Spot on idea.
Actually, @haitch 's insurance asset idea was inspired by that scam as well.
As messed up as it was, that scammer gave all of us some great ideas that we acted upon, so i guess i have to give him credit there.. he made us better
-
@gpedro That discussion got the idea started, but how to make it work is something that was bouncing around in my head for the last couple of months. No single way gave the assurance and quarantee - hence the multi pronged approach - the insurance asset, the asset escrow, and the identity verification. Combining those makes an asset as trustworthy as I can figure out to make it. If anyone has additional ideas/enhancements - I'll look at incorporating it.
