Show HN: TopOfTheCoins.com – the “MillionDollarHomepage” of the crypto-era
For those that haven't heard of it before, in 2005 a website was launched called http://www.milliondollarhomepage.com/. The site took the internet by storm, became pretty iconic, and genuinely did raise > $1,000,000.
As part of my goal for 2018 to learn more about crypto, this Jan I launched a side project: https://www.topofthecoins.com/
You can post a message simply with an Ether transfer. The message that has the most Ether is the one that remains featured at the top of the site. It's amazing exposure for anyone posting a message, as we currently have thousands of tech and crypto enthusiasts visiting the site.
As of writing, the top message was posted for 0.00126ETH (<$2), which means if you post a message with any more than that, then your message will be featured at the top of the site (until someone else posts a message with more Ether)...
It's a bit of fun to learn about crypto stuff, but it's actually starting to take off, which is quite exciting. I don't expect it to match the success of Million Dollar Homepage, but I'll sure try...
Be good to hear everyone's thoughts.
Thanks, Joe

I tried to put a different spin on it...
Ultimately I always had an upside with this as I built it primarily to learn more about the crypto space, the Coinbase API, etc.
Either way it's all a bit of fun. If it did take off like MDH did, then count me surprised!
As of writing, to be the featured message it'll only cost you 0.00127 Eth (<$1.50).
