And the only similar comparison between USD etc. and crypto/NFT is that they're all "fiat" currencies.

I think you will find that crypto currencies are, or were intended to be, much the opposite of fiat currencies - though there are exceptions.

A fiat currency is one that is not backed by some commodity. A unit of crypto currency is supposed to represent the work required in creating it in the first place.

A fiat currency is also one for which its value is suppoosed to assigned by a central organisation (by fiat). The classic crypto currency (Bitcoin) was supposed to have no such central authority (though some others do have such an authority).

A web search for "fiat currency vs cryptocurrency" should enlighten you as to the difference.

It is possible for a crypto currency to be a fiat currency - e.g. the proposals for government backed crypto-currencies - but for the most part they are not.

If there was'nt this NFT system we would have had them on "classic" sale...

This is wishful thinking.

Without the SECs and NFT cards there would still be just seven cards released per week by the "classic" route. The NFTs and SECs represent the production of extra cards over and above those that would otherwise have been produced. The only difference would be which cards were released. - so while we may have seen the current SECs and NFT cards released as normal cards there are other cards that we would not have seen because they were never produced.

If Totem were now to change their minds and decide release the SEC and NFT cards as normal cards then almost certainly these cards would simply join the queue of cards destined for release some time in the future. Until they had all been released this would result in Totem being able to temporalily reduce the rate at which they needed to produce cards. It would not increase the number of "normal" cards available to us at all.

I get this is an attempt to keep up with the times and not get left behind like Blackberry and Blockbuster.... but this is doomed to fail because of 2 reasons: the timing could not be worse (new lows incoming with impending FTX contagion and the war ***** for regulation of these "securities") and NFT hype is over and will never be at the same levels again. Porn has been trying to get into the NFT game but missed the boat and likely these NFT projects will die with the rest of the 98-99% when the bear market is complete and final capitulation. Worse still is those who buy these NFT cards and have no idea current state of affairs will be in for a real shock if and when crypto is declared a security and regulation is enforced. All assests (which NFTs are considered a part of) purchased with crypto (including ETH and USDT) will be subject to capital gains tax (already we are suppose to declare but no way to enforce currently) and the government and anyone able to read blockchain will know your viewing habits. LOL!!! Still it will be a fun thing to reminiscence about like some of the other features that have come and gone. NFA!

@ComteDracula made many good points. And the only similar comparison between USD etc. and crypto/NFT is that they're all "fiat" currencies. The bottom line is that NFT's are way too volatile to consider (unless you're wealthy). So this will be a hard pass, for a lot of people here. Even though those cards do look amazing!!
But, you do you @Totem ! Your main product is more than enough for me! ✌💜😎

As noted above, today many crypto currencies crashed, and one big exchange is in meltdown. I'm not sure why these NFTs are being offered this way...but for me it's a pass.

Does anyone know how to set up a company to collect the "Gas Fees" as that is the only part of crypto-currencies that I will ever get involved in?

Gas fees are paid to to run the computations required on the network. When the network was Proof of Work ("PoW"), the fees were paid to ETH miners with large computer arrays that secured the blockchain. They switched from Proof of Work to Proof of Stake ("PoS"), so any ETH holder can "stake" their ETH and validate the blockchain. It requires >32 ETH and a lot of technical know-how.

https://www.coindesk.com/markets/2019/10/25/3-ways-staking-will-upend-the-economics-of-ethereum/

Most people wishing to participate in the success of the network simply stake the ETH they have in a "pool" of other people to earn yield as the network grows. None of the above is financial advice. The markets are extremely competitive and the shift from PoW to PoS has locked up a lot of coins yet to be released, which could create price pressure, and the pools themselves are potentially vulnerable to hacking and theft. Though several reputable institutions offer it as a service.

Be mindful that anyone interacting with your Metamask can see your NFTs and your transaction history, so even if you use it pseudonymously, people will see your dancing naked lady cards. That's not appropriate for my wallet, but yours may be different. Also keep in mind the tax consequences, with the exchange of ETH for DOLZ tokens and DOLZ tokens for NFTs being taxable capital gains transactions, as well as any subsequent sale. Record your cost basis, or you may regret it later.

Separately, the third largest crypto exchange (FTX) collapsed just yesterday and price action has been *****. The space is probably going to remain volatile, so I'd seek to limit the amount of time I held ETH and DOLZ, and buy the NFT as quickly as possible to avoid unwanted exposure to price fluctuations.

Caveat emptor. Stay safe in these crazy financial times.

I spoke to a cashier in my bank in the past couple of weeks and got the impression that they are likely to block crypto -currency transactions.

Anyway
Just watched the tutorial
Does anyone know how to set up a company to collect the "Gas Fees" as that is the only part of crypto-currencies that I will ever get involved in?

@Z2

Think that will do for today, will do the usual and add glass into the mix. Maybe ... it might look shite.

Thanks, I think it'll take me several weeks to grasp this. Only just starting out with shaders.

Will they have tags of what the shows include?

What will be the shows at the start of the sale?

I see virtually no difference between exchanging cash for credits
vs
Exchanging cash for Dolz coins.
with one middle step. Cash to a tradable crypto, then trade for Dolz.
And, yes you need a crypto wallet to manage and track your trades / exchanges.

The real difference is that the NFT has value to it.
It can be traded or sold.
where the iStripper cards do not.

Dolz and NFT changes nothing for iStripper.
A member can freely choose to participate or not.

High risk/high reward for totem like special event, but a little riskier. They are teasing the collectors and hoping that the addiction of collecting and having all cards overrides the reality that cards are overpriced dramatically. Eventually though, locking cards behind walls and making it harder to be a collector will drive people away from collecting, until there are fewer collectors, less income for totem. Special event was safer than this venture because totem just needed to pay a coder for the games and ui, in the case of dolz they are themselves investing into a collaboration with a volatile product. Hopefully it goes well because I love the base product and if collectors want to spend frivolously it can only help the base product.

There will be the regular iStripper, and the iStripper of the rich customers, who will be at risk of losing money, because Totem will not lose money. Let's just hope that this expansion will not be to the detriment of the regular iStripper customers.


Il va y avoir le iStripper régulier, et le iStripper des riches clients, qui risque de prendre de l'empleur, car Totem lui ne sera pas perdant. Espérons juste que cette expension ne sera pas au détriment des clients du iStripper régulier.

this will be the case since there will be cards available only for NFTs. If there was'nt this NFT system we would have had them on "classic" sale...

ca sera le cas vu qu'il y aura des cartes dispo que pour les NFT. Si il n'y avait pas ce systeme de NFT on les aurait eu en vente "classic"...

So many amazing cards ***** as NFT's...
I hope this DOLZ crap fails and they end up releasing them as regular cards (undiscounted to recoup their losses)

its sad... i want these cards so badly, but forking out the cash for it is dangerous sice i really cant afford to buy it... its above my pay grade, in the back of my mind im telling myself im going to miss out on something awesome, but my logic is thinking its just another cash grab "pay wall" leave it be you cant have everything in life

What I notice is that Totem often uses legitimate customer requests, such as exchanging cards with others from their respective collections, or allowing customers to have old SEC cards, which should no longer be available, to set up structures that serve more to enrich them, than to really meet the needs of those same customers.

Obviously there are some who like these new trends.

This leads to the two categories of customers that some people here anticipated when the Dolz and NFT project was announced.

The customers who have money and don't care what it costs, and the others, who don't have money to ***** or for whom it doesn't fit their values, and who just want to buy the cards for fun at a fair price. Not artificially inflated.

The problem is that, if they are not different products, the former are harming the latter by agreeing to participate in this; and this, no matter how negative the consequences may be on the customers in general, who may ***** heavy losses of money by engaging in this adventure.

There will be the regular iStripper, and the iStripper of the rich customers, who will be at risk of losing money, because Totem will not lose money. Let's just hope that this expansion will not be to the detriment of the regular iStripper customers.


Ce que je remarque est que Totem se sert souvent de demandes légitimes des clients, comme l'échange de cartes avec d'autres à partir de leurs collections respectives, ou permettre à des clients d'avoir d'anciennes cartes SEC, qui ne devaient plus être disponibles, pour mettre en place des structures qui sert plus à les enrichir, qu'à répondre vraiment aux besoins de ces mêmes clients.

Évidemment il y en a qui aiment ces nouvelles tendances.

Cela ammène les deux catégories de clients que certaines personnes ici avaient anticipé, à l'annonce du projet Dolz et NFT.

Les clients qui ont de l'argent et qui n'ont que faire de ce que cela va coûter, et les autres, qui n'ont pas d'argent à tirer par les fenêtres ou pour qui cela ne correspond pas à leurs valeurs, et qui veulent juste acheter les cartes pour le plaisir à un juste prix. Non gonflé artificiellement.

Le problème est que, si ce ne sont pas des produits différents, les premiers nuisent aux seconds, en acceptant de participer à cela; et ce, peut importe les conséquences négatives que cela peut avoir sur les clients en général, qui eux risque de subir de fortes pertes d'argent en s'engageant dans cette aventure.

Il va y avoir le iStripper régulier, et le iStripper des riches clients, qui risque de prendre de l'empleur, car Totem lui ne sera pas perdant. Espérons juste que cette expension ne sera pas au détriment des clients du iStripper régulier.

@Northstar17 - you ask

Why touch this runing system?

The answer is that it has not "been touched", it has not been changed in anyway by the existance of the NFT cards.

Now, the answer to the question "why introduce a new product?" is almost certainly that it is expected to be profitable.

Je trouve aussi que tout cela fait très marché //

Je pense qu'il va falloir laisser du temps au temps pour que les gens acceptent l'idée de devoir renchérir (trading card collection) pour la possession du carte issues de ce marché quelque peu underground.

Et là vous en remettez une couche avec de cryptos à valeur de change non régulée.😆

Ça sent l'ufologie à plein nez vous venez d'une autre planète.😆

je viens de regarder la fameuse video linké de "lisaparadis", donc faut faire 2 comptes pour acheter des dolz on peut pas en acheter directement sans passer par une crypto monaie ben oui pourquoi faire simple quand on peut faire compliquer... si je ne veux pas de metamask...

Soi just watched the linked video of "lisaparadis", so you have to make 2 accounts to buy dolz you can't buy them directly without going through a crypto currency well yes why make it simple when you can make it complicated...if i don't want metamask...

I dont post much, but since the crypto and NFTs are comming also here, I have two cents.

1) I found the idea of marketplace for trading collection cards as good. Since sooner or later all of us end with cards, which we do not necessary like to keep. Either from promotion actions, as a by product to get the one special card or simply our taste change. And be able to trade tham even in 10:1 for the one missing model card, which we missed to get or model that we discover late would be nice.

2) the NFTs has to much hype for me. I can imagine, that to push people to buy crypto, some cards will end NFTs only anyway, as we already have Special card for same reason to drop credits in different spend spreas to get tham. Which in my eyes is good product for Totem 💰, but it does not interest me at all 😕.

@pickle1 perhaps we're going to need a Hall of Fame (a-f series), a separate one for the g-series, and maybe a combined all inclusive version.

Honestly, I will not do it. Sorry, its just another way to get money and in a difficult way which has nothing to do with the app itself... and sounds realy strange.. especially with crypto currency. It looks like, we make money with glittering model cards.

Why touch this runing system? It works as it is. You bring out a show and we pay for it, so easy :)

@Z22

Freaky. 😎 Her predator camo keeps going down, eh. 😄

donc c'est des cartes/shows que via Dolz qui ne seront jamais ici en sortie "classique"?

hmm

https://i.imgur.com/KALOWUt.jpg

wipes between solid and glass.

I understand it! thanks! I'm in👍

Following up on @ComteDracula 's view on this being a separate product (which I can fully understand), will any purchased NFT cards show up in the members collection on the App, be counted in their totals and impact on people's appearance or position in the monthly Hall Of Fame?

Or will they be treated as a separate product like we treat the VirtuaGuy cards?

@ComteDracula
Merci, la scène FG736 est maintenant incluse dans le zip

@ComteDracula
Thank you , FG736 scene is now included in the zip

Even if they are read in the program, it is another product because the cards can only be purchased with your Dolz cryptocurrency.

This excludes all those people for whom this kind of currency does not suit their values for various reasons, among others ecological.

And we know that crypto-currencies have a high risk of loss. There is no protection for a person who invests in it, unlike regular currency. It's a speculative tool.

You don't want to ***** people to invest in cryptocurrency, you say, but you are promoting a product that can only be acquired through it.

It's like the SEC that can only be acquired through games. We are excluded from it, if the only way to get them does not suit us.


Même si elles sont lu dans le programme, c'est un autre produit car les cartes ne peuvent être achetées qu'à partir de votre cryptomonnaie Dolz.

Cela exclu toutes les personnes à qui ce genre de monnaie ne convient pas à leurs valeurs pour diverses raisons, entre autres écologiques.

Et nous savons que les cryptomonnaies sont à haut risque de perte. Il n'y a aucune protection pour une personne qui investie dans cela, contrairement à la monnaie régulière. C'est un outil spéculatif.

Vous ne voulez pas obliger les gens à investir dans la cryptomonnaie, dites-vous, mais vous faite la promotion d'un produit qui ne s'acquiert que par celle-ci.

C'est comme les SEC qui ne s'acquiert que par les jeux. Nous en sommes exclu, si le seul moyen pour les avoir ne nous convient pas.

Will some models end up being NFT exclusive?

Nothing planned in this direction for the moment, no.

je considère que c'est un tout autre produit

Hm, ce n'est pas exact.
Les cartes NFT seront lisibles dans iStripper...

Une carte NFT"common" est l'équivalent d'une carte iStripper "normale", avec sa liste de clips, ses 4 ou 5 niveaux d'érotisme, même durée de show, même présentation du modèle, etc...

Les cartes NFT Rares, Epic et Légendaires auront simplement des clips bonus supplémentaires.

La principale différence avec les cartes iStripper "non-NFT" est que les NFTs seront échangeables et que vous pourrez les vendre...

Will some models end up being NFT exclusive?

Ahhh Gloria... eclipsed hearts... 😍 if only she was here...

Yes, Clemence Audiard & Alissa Foxy have a NFT🔥❤️😍 Look at that :)

Out of curiosity, which one would you have chosen ?

Hmm good question - I've not kept up to date with all the NFT releases.
But if new lady Clemence Audiard has one, or Alissa Foxy perhaps.
Of course if dear Gloria ever returns, wow my choice would be easy. 😍

Je ne comprend pas pourquoi on nous fait de la publicité ici sur ce projet.Je comprend que c'est un produit de Totem, mais je considère que c'est un tout autre produit.S.V.P. Faite votre publicité sur la partie Dolz de discord et laissez nous tranquille avec cela.Cessez d'ammenez les gens à vouloir investir dans la cryptomonnaie.

Cher ComteDracula,

Il est important de tenir au courant les personnes qui pourraient être intéressées par cette nouvelle collection iStripper, dont les cartes auront l'avantage -tant réclamé depuis des *****ées- d'être échangeables.

Et les nouveaux arrivants sont tellement nombreux chaque jour sur iStripper qu'il est bien légitime de communiquer sur le forum de temps en temps. On ne peut pas dire qu'on vous harcèle tous les jours :)
Et en aucun cas nous ne cherchons à vous inciter à investir dans la crypto.

tedious steps

To be totally honest with you, I was afraid of that too at the very beginning, but frankly, these tools are super well done and it was finally super easy to set it all :)

Sometimes, it's more difficult to remember where I've hidden my seed phrase 😂

@EverthangForever,

FG736 scene, not included.

Thank you.


@EverthangForever,

La scène FG736, n'est pas incluse.

Merci.

Thanks for you feedback, @wrightsayswow !

Would have been nice to choose the NFT we could get.

Hm, unfortunately not this time :-P Out of curiosity, which one would you have chosen ? :-P

@Wyldanimal,

How do you manage to have 1291 cards in 4K?

Yes, as mentioned above, some of my 1291 4K cards are from QA that have not yet been released.
Sorry I didn't filter out my cards for testing from my Total.

I just clicked on the Quality filter and Picked Crystal Clear +, and gave out that total..
Then I also clicked on Resolution and picked 4K to make sure their weren't any non-4K cards included.

Actually, with the Crystal Clear + filter,
the Only resolution that wasn't 0 was 4K, so
none of my Crystal Clear + cards are less than 4K


The Corrected total is 1278 cards. or 1279 after today's release.

All participants in the presales will receive an exclusive NFT of Paola Hard in Epic & Legendary editions

Would have been nice to choose the NFT we could get. 😕
But I guess we can then trade it for one we do want. 👍
I'm still mulling over this whole project. 😐

I think it's a shame so many great shows are locked behind being NFTs.

I would gladly buy them for more than a normal show costs but NFTs ain't worth it.

I was considering giving it a try but after watching the tutorial video seeing how many tedious steps there is to even participate there's no way I'm gonna bother. I don't even understand half of it, its so complicated.

I hope they become available in a different way in the future, I really wanted the chef Eve Sweet show.

Dear Members,


Here is a quick update about our Dolz's project 😊


➡ The DOLZ token presale is coming your way on DOLZ.io.
The DOLZ crypto-currency will allow you to purchase all new iStripper trading cards from the NFT collection.
More than 60 iStripper trading cards have already been produced and ready to get released.


➡ On November 23, you will be able to buy your DOLZ tokens for less than the original price, during the presales.
All participants in the presales will receive an exclusive NFT of Paola Hard in Epic & Legendary editions


➡ LisaParadis was kind enough to prepare a super comprehensive tutorial to assist you in purchasing DOLZ tokens, thanks a lot Lisa 🤗

3 simple steps to make sure you’re all set for Nov. 23:

• How to create your wallet (Metamask)
• How to buy your first crypto, ETH, and USDT by credit card or wire transfer.
• How to buy DOLZ tokens on DOLZ.io

And do not hesitate to ask your questions, we're all ears!
(You can also contact Manue & myself by email on [email protected])

We would be delighted to have you on board for this major change in Totem's developments 😘🤗

Visit www.dolz.io if needed :)

Duplicated topic, continue here https://www.istripper.com/fr/forum/thread/51869/1?post=751190

On general release and available to purchase, as of today (9th November) there are 1278 cards in 4k (though that may be 1279 if we are looking at this after adding the latest release 😊).

@Philours is correct in his observation that the higher figure quoted by @WA includes cards in QA which are not as yet released.

Using only one filter in my collection (crystal clear + for quality), I find that I have 987 cards (including one SEC).
In the store, using the same filter and allowing all cards of this quality, I see there are 291 cards, including all SECs except one. That is a total of 1278 cards.

Maybe Priscilia Jones and ***** O Fee (both removed from the store) were available in 4K (crystal clear +).

Good food for thought @Z22 tks a lot .

@ComteDracula wrote .. Thanks @EverthangForever.
I see an improvement in the last scenes. Even the ones that use 100% of the CPU, and also with the 4K cards.

It is worth re-stating that the @WA re-coded style of the converted shaders since FG700 does
help a lot, however it is not a cure-all solution to 4K model stuttering. I have included shaders in this zip that will likely show some lag running them with 4K clips. I'll continue sharing converted scenes like FG734
and FG735 however, because the lag there on my =<3K models is not yet sufficient for me to reject them while they retain ' good for entertainment ' value on my system.
---
Il convient de réaffirmer que le style @WA recodé des shaders convertis depuis > FG700
aide beaucoup, mais ce n'est pas une solution miracle au bégaiement des modèles 4K. J'ai inclus des shaders dans ce zip qui montreront probablement un certain décalage en les exécutant avec des clips 4K. Je continuerai cependant à partager des scènes converties comme FG734-5, car le décalage sur mes modèles =<3K n'est pas encore suffisant pour que je les rejette, et ils conservent une valeur de divertissement sur mon système.
