We should come up with a way to start distributing Wyvern to gamers & other interested parties who haven't heard about it yet; get the name and brand out there some more.

Maybe miners could agree to sponsor some kind of airdrop event with proof of interest - require a Steam account, and distribute Wyvern according to hours played, for example.

Thoughts?

I agree that we need a marketing strategy; most gamers don't know Wyvern exists. The airdrop idea is interesting - would that be appealing to gamers?

Another option could be sponsorship of a tournament / player / team in eSports - maybe DOTA / CSGO / League of Legends? Any team / tournament ideas? We'd need to crowdfund the sponsorship and appoint a representative, maybe one of the coin devs.

Those are both interesting sounding ideas. I'm not familiar with airdrops, how do they work?

Basically random rewards to anyone signed up for a service. You would airdrop (Or give) X amount of coins to a random wallet address that is signed up for a service. I beleive this is counter productive to you guys as your holdings are very limited. Value on the coin needs a significant increase before something like this would be viable.

I agree that it might be a bit early - just brainstorming ideas. I think value matters less than utility, though - probably best to wait until the online store is usable, wallets are well-tested and available for a wide selection of platforms, etc. That way new users can see what they can do with Wyvern.
