Hi Dogedarkdev,

I`ve bought some coins with the intention to hold them a while.

here are my thoughts and questions regarding the future of verge coin. Regarding the suggestions i will state below, you worked on this project so at the end you are entitled to shift/do what you think it`s best for your baby.

1) I see that there is the intention to add RootStock to Verge once it`s working for Bitcoin. This is awesome, the fact that verge will have privacy + smart contracts combined.

I think newcomers should have clear understanding what sets apart Verge from other coins: Monero, Dash, Zcash.
If privacy/smart contracts combo, i read that others will implement also this in the future, if not already.
This topic is not clear to me and need to read more, but a quick explanation here will help me and others searching for more info.
Once this is settled, Verge can gain more trust in the long run.

If Verge is 1st coin to add those, the fact that Zcash/Monero etc got a way bigger traction than Verge can be bummer for many future investors. would want to see your opinion on this one ( i m not talking about speculators).

2) Once the tech side stands on its own, marketing is crucial as you know. (actually this needs to be done aggresively IHMO , in parallel with rootstock implementation.
I see that you got verge ad , nice but i think it needs more than this:

suggestions regarding marketing:

1) twitter account to be more professional oriented, it still has one man show feel: check syscoin/ stratis way of doing things on twitter.
Posting about partnerships, trends and where fits or will fit in the blockchain echosystem).

2) verge blog?

3) brief presentation of the team + whenever future member comes aboard.

4) do you have a plan regarding deals for Verge? this will get more trust on future investors and it`s also addressing the very basic question: why verge and not other coin.

Curious of your thoughts here, nevertheless the fact that you and your guys built this from 0 up to this level is huge. But to bring it to the next level i think it will require a lot.

cheers!

I agree fully to everything you said. At the moment to be honest it is really hard for potential investors to understand the edges of this coin.
All the tech innovation etc are nice, but it does not help for people who have no clue.

Dev would be nice to consider these points mentioned

I think you're absolutely right.
