Ravencoin marketing campaign
The Ravolution will be tokenized
Disclaimer: Ravencoin is an open-source project with no leader and no formal organization. There is a Ravencoin Foundation (which I support but have no official role or affiliation). Everything that I do regarding Ravencoin (and everything I am announcing in this article) is done in an unofficial capacity as an enthusiastic supporter of Ravencoin.
Introduction
I have been a serial entrepreneur, investor, and pro-liberty activist for the past 25 years. When I first discovered Ravencoin 3 years ago, I was immediately intrigued.
I started CPU mining from the very beginning, watched every video I could find from Bruce Fenton & Tron Black and started digging into the possibilities. As my enthusiasm grew, I found myself talking about this almost exclusively to friends and family (regardless of their interest in hearing about it or their background level in any of the subject matter).
As time went on, I have found myself speaking to probably hundreds of people about Ravencoin. Many of these people are new to crypto and find it difficult to grasp the technical details. But what I have found is that the biggest barrier to people understanding the vastness of the potential of Ravencoin is a lack of understanding of how the world currently works.
Getting Redpilled
For many, the default position is that the existing institutions and markets exist for a good reason and never bother to question how they work or even if they function fairly and efficiently. The truth is, almost every market is broken because they are inefficient, corrupt, or both. In all cases, there are middlemen who are the source of the friction.
Ravencoin removes the middlemen by allowing direct transactions on the blockchain without the need for a “trusted third party”, thus creating economic opportunity and expanding freedom. Ravencoin allows anyone to trade anything of any size anywhere in the world in a frictionless manner that is nearly instant and free. Ravencoin isn’t just for tech geeks, it is for anyone, anywhere who values freedom.
What happens when people learn the truth about existing markets
Bruce Fenton produced a 10-part series about security tokens which I found to be very illuminating (see below). I had no idea that we have T+2 settlement (it takes two business days after a stock trade is made to settle the trade) and that one company (DTCC) owns every stock certificate for US-based public equities. This system is not only inefficient but is rife with corruption leading to things like naked short selling (short selling shares that haven’t been proven to even exist). The world only recently became aware of this with the Wall Street Bets / Gamestop movement. Now, concepts like T+2 settlement and naked short selling are trending topics on Twitter and discussion points in Congressional hearings.
As a result of Gamestop, interest in Ravencoin has surged, and people all over the world now realize that the co-authors of the Ravencoin Whitepaper (Bruce Fenton and Tron Black) have been working on this problem for years. Before Ravencoin, Tron Black was already working at Overstock on the first every security token offering (while at tZERO). Initial funding for Ravencoin came from Overstock through Medici Ventures as a result of a conversation between Patrick Byrne (who has been talking about the naked short selling problem for years) and Bruce Fenton (who was previously the Chairman of the Bitcoin Foundation and is long times securities expert).
What if I told you that every market has a similar broken structure. What if we had a Wall Street Bets movement for real estate, bonds, collectibles, art, etc. (literally any market that you can name)?
Public equities are the tip of the iceberg. There isn’t a single market on Earth that isn’t obstructed by middlemen of various kinds. Putting on my entrepreneur/investor hat, I have tried to size the market opportunity for Ravencoin and have concluded that it is essentially infinite. No matter how small/large, expensive/inexpensive, physical/digital, it can be tokenized on Ravencoin in a way that disrupts the middleman while creating economic opportunity and freedom.
As you can see in the video below, I started to try to size the market and gave up counting after about $220 trillion. Even as you contemplate tokenizing all of things that currently exist, as we have already seen with things like #NFTs and the rise of virtual reality, the market for new digital assets may represent an even larger market in the future as people are spending more of their lives online and in virtual environments.
As an added benefit, through the use of IPFS and tokens, Ravencoin can also be used to distribute information in a manner that is censorship-resistant. I have registered the token names Snowden, Assange, Whistleblower, PanamaPapers, and Killswitch to hopefully get your imagination going as to what is possible. In addition, Ravencoin makes micropayments possible, which is something that could be used to transform ad-sponsored Silicon Valley big tech into businesses that use microtransactions (imagine paying a fraction of a cent for a Google search instead of having your data sold / be the target for advertisers).
The Ravolution will be tokenized
Imagine if there was a global wave of Wall Street Bets-like movements in every market. I am launching a social media contest to do just that. Let’s harness the power of Ravencoin’s global community to identify markets, expose middlemen, and explore the tokenization ravolution.
Simply post on social media (in your own authentic voice) and in whatever format you feel will be the most effective (text posts, articles, videos, memes) about one or more of the following:
1/ Identify markets for tokenization (stocks, NFTs, real estate, etc.)
2/ Expose the middlemen (politicians, bankers, big tech)
3/ Inspire people about how the application of Ravencoin will bring freedom and economic opportunity through direct trade.
Have fun with this - share what you are passionate about. I have provided a list of social media channels below. If there are any channels that I missed, let me know. The important thing is that you add a link to your post on the following Twitter post.

Three winners will receive an NFT (created by me) and 5 winners will split a reward pool of at least 1000 RVN (I have contributed 1000 RVN to a Ballet wallet below). If others contribute the wallet, the additional RVN will be split amongst the 5 winners.

Eligibility: Anyone except me (although I will be sharing posts on all of the channels mentioned).
Ravencoin has an incredible community and a very powerful social media presence. Despite having no funding for marketing, we have been the top coin on social media (according to Lunar Crush) at least 3 times in the past few months.
I have created a Slack channel http://rvnmarketing.slack.com that we can use in the future to further organize our social media outreach. This initial contest is just a trial. We will see what happens and will learn and make adjustments. We’ve had incredible results so far, imagine what we can do with a little bit of organization and incentives.
