Current summary about multisig.
1) BTC max 15-of-15.
Pros:
- BTC is the world's number one.
Cons:
- Group of 3-5 smart cheaters can play 15 honest people.
- In order to participate in multisig you need to publish your public key. Due to BTC design, public key becomes really public only after first sending transaction. Or you can explicitly publish it in plain text.
Right now it is safe, but in the next 10 years it will be unsafe because quantum computers will be able to restore private key from public key. Untouched BTC addresses will remain safe, but public keys - no.
(however, developers have enough time to invent protection)
2) NEM max 64-of-64.
Pros:
- It is practically impossible to write so many fake lists, someone will certainly identify cheating.
- Built-in messaging support, and public and private.
Cons:
- NEM is little-known and is slowly getting down -
https://coinmarketcap.com/ - number 72
3) ETH potentially unlimited M-of-N wallet

Multi-signature address is like a safe box with several locks. Key holders can open it only together.
For example "5-of-7 multisig bitcoin address" means that there are 7 keys, and any 5 of them are needed for sending bitcoins.
BTC allows only up to 15-of-15, but other cryptocurrencies allows much more keys (for example
https://nem.io has unlimited M-of-N)
The idea is simple - groups of people with similar targets can top up multisig addresses in order to prove their intention to pay.
Your list may be very smart and honest but it is just a declaration. But sending real money to separate address looks much stronger. Potential agents will see not just words, but real money already prepared for them.
And by the way, it can rise motivation for donors significantly. There are a lot of cheaters here, but cheating with multisig address is practically impossible (or at least is much harder).

In short:
1000 perfect lists with 100 BTC total amount = 1 "unit of trust"...

Prediction markets can be considered as some sort of alternatives. This is absolutely different technology, but with similar results - motivating anonymous people to do something special.
Here are 3 projects which in theory may permit betting on delicate subjects:
1)
https://github.com/AugurProject/augur-app - installable application
2)
https://fairlay.com/ - web site
3)
https://omen.eth.link/#/liquidity - web site (but you need to disable ad-blocker)
(for future exploration)
For big texts maybe better to make threads of updates:
Topic
-Bob's full text
--update
--update
-Alice's full text
--update
--update
But every update should contain "
#hmwyda wishlist update" and a link to the first full post (for easy reference)

Objectively - BSV was(is) under attack
Objectively - Memo is not open source
Subjectively - I had problems with Memo in Tor Browser
And BTW, if CryptoFights allows publishing long text then it can be one more alternative

I will monitor hashtag
#hmwyda but on member.cash -
https://member.cash/#topic?topicname=hmwydaIt is actually the same thing as memo.cash, but truly open source, and allows to post long text (but formatting is horrible)
...
Ok, finally, how to post to memo.sv without using memo.sv
I use Tor Browser and all my posts become unconfirmed - this is suspicious.
Here is a method for Tor Browser without using memo.sv
1) Open simple text editor (e.g. Notepad) and copy-paste the following text (without lines ---):
(this is just slightly modified example from
https://github.com/mattercloud/filepay )
------------------------------
<script src='https://unpkg.com/
[email protected]/dist/filepay.min.js'></script>
<script>
const privateKey = "your_private_key_goes_here";
function make_post() {
if (! confirm("Send?")) {
return(false)
}
filepay.send({
feeb: 2,
data: ["0x6d0c", topic.value, text.value],
pay: { key: privateKey }
});
alert("just alert after send");
}
</script>
<input id=topic><br>
<textarea id=text></textarea><br>
<button onclick=make_post()>Send</button>

I found two possible alternatives:
https://member.cash is BCH-based, but it allows to post long text, it splits text into several transactions.
https://www.myetherwallet.com is well known ETH wallet. It works in browser and allows to set arbitrary "data" field while sending transactions.
You can try them out and share your experience here.
I can’t post the list, if it’s not hard donate satoshi plz.
I cant send my post, I dont have satoshi. How much time does the faucet takes to send me some?
yes - honest and non-stupid text in any form
satoshies please, i want to make a post
