Dear VonSpass what are the chances of ico going forward with 90k of cbx
We still have 2 weeks of
ICO promoting, in hope to gather the missing 160k; everything can change!
As we stand, the 90 000 CBX is not enough to get Quintessence the initial push it needs.
Which kind of additional promotion do you plan for the remaining two weeks? If first two weeks with higher bonuses have collected only about 30% of the required funds, there is very small (negligible) chance the remaining two weeks will collect more than 10-20%. Unless you have some promotion plan you are going to implement very soon, this ICO would fail.
You should urgently start very active promotion, if you want this project to survive!Any articles, campaigns, publicity, anything?
Well, we are not a company with a huge budget. And if we were, we probably wouldn't need an ICO and we wouldn't let anyone in until it was complete; Quintessence is the essence of the opensource development: we are enthusiasts who want to push crypto ahead, using a state of the art infrastructure with a fair and ecological algorithm and in a way that is fair to everybody. We are here because we do not like what is done in other Crypto 2.0 tokens; if we liked the other crypto 2.0s then we would develop for them and Quintessence would not be needed.
It's also not about the money injected into promotion: we have tried PR Buzz articles submitted to big media crypto websites in the past, but the effect were lukewarm, at best. Look at what happened with Neucoin (NEU) - these guys invested thousands of dollars in promoting their upcoming coin last winter (with Google AdWords, among others) - and it still failed. What works is getting people onboard, plain and simple, enticing them with a strong, ambitious and exciting project. What we need is more people.
So far, our promoting effort is financed by regular folk's and families hard work outside the crypto arena; so we do whatever we have access to for free, or very cheap, to promote our ideas. If you search the internet with "Quintessence Token" you will find it in English, Spanish and Italian (Thanks Davide!) in many crypto forums.
Best and strongest promotion tools in my view are Bitcointalk, Reddit and CoinMarketCap. What we are hoping for is to create a strong and enthusiastic community which will go viral and bring in more and more ideas, along with more and more people. We need people to help us with Reddit, actually.
Please, by all means, if you have ideas and would like to participate in promoting Quintessence, contact me. Everyone with ideas who wants to participate and put in some effort is invited to step forward, and join a dynamic team.
