Onboarding coop members

[jimscarver]

This epic is to meet the onboarding challenge from attracting members, educating them, accepting payment, identity proofing, facilitating cooperative involvement in the community and RHOC marketplace. Doug Rushkoff advised us that onboarding is our greatest challenge. When, if we experience exponential growth this process will need to be scalable.

Processes that are components of the onboarding process may be aggregated under this epic.

Yes, let's offer a path of least resistance. I adjusted the diagram and linked the Welcome email directly to the SoW process.

Feedback is welcome on initiation and annual member incentives outlined in sheet attached here!

Clearly, this is a thought experiment. The only way I see membership working to scale (1B members +) is if even 1/100,000,000th of a Rev (what I'm calling "Dust") becomes a useful value (in my model I have $10 bucks). That's the only way there'll be enough Rev value (given the assumptions) to go around as incentive and annual dues for the foreseeable future - say ~1000 years.

This is only possible because crypto is so divisible, from what I understand, to the 100,000,000th digit.

[This is a thought experiment because] I'm not sure it's realistic to have each single Rev be worth $1B and the Rev valuation to be at $870 Quadrillion by some far out future date (in my model 2050).

By the same token, however, someone from the Middle Ages would be spooked that $200T+ of fiat currencies, stocks, and bonds rule all transactions in the world. They'd be like "what's fiat, stocks, and bonds" and how do I put "200T of anything" into perspective... I think blockchain will get us to "quadrillions of value" -- even though its hard to comprehend today.

I suggest with the legitimacy behind Greg's vision of Rchain and this community - Rev could be what takes humanity to the world of tomorrow, a better world for all.

I still believe in dApps and other tokens, but I think money is still a fundamental "dApp" so to speak and one coin will end up being the most convenient [read: stable] store of value -- no matter how good exchanges become they won't be able to exchange legitimacy, stability, governance, concurrency :1st_place_medal:

The analogy I've used before is: any group of people can say they're starting a new country with a document called the Declaration of Independence and a Constitution. But there's still only 1 USA. What's happening today with Rchain, I think, is truly on that level of special.

What an extrapolation! :) But who knows, it could happen. Nice that you made a sliding scale that keeps the Incentive/Income totals constant thru the years.

I noticed that the Incentive and income results are keyed to the REV value. Some might say that $1,000,000,000 in the future is optimistic ;) so I added formulas in the result cells. Now if you input a different value for the "Future Price of Rev (USD)", the results alter accordingly. So pessimists can also do calculation and input, say, $50000. Anybody who wants to try it can do it in this Google sheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/121h9k2xxv4l7wEgQz_3OcGiG9iGRd-e6b1cti_gXcQc/edit?usp=sharing

onboarding krishna to myetherwallet and metamask https://youtu.be/S1b8x4NxwtA it turned our he knew nothing about rchain or blockchain but wants to learn and earn.

What are recommended videos or other resources for these task?

Ooh! a recording of onboarding. Nice, @jimscarver !

The work I did on README.md CONTRIBUTING.md was my answer to "What are recommended videos or other resources for someone who wants to learn and earn?" But it didn't occur to me that somebody might be interested in rchain without being somewhat familiar with Ethereum and bitcoin.

[patrick727]

I second that!

I tend to connect rchain to those to as an entry.

good work @jimscarver

https://github.com/rchain/Members/blob/master/membership/assets/Onboarding_Workflow.png starts with "new user joins slack" which is clearly out of date. Should I delete that diagram?

It's not straightforward for me to updated it because the editable source version isn't checked in.

Continues with #253

[Keaycee]

Onboarding can be a challenge as some people or coop members don't like to be KYCED. This thread is related to #222

[lapin7]

They don't have to in order to collaborate.
