As I, and others, have said before, we need to find and accumulate uses for this coin.  Specifically we need to find merchants willing to accept it.  Whether this is someone selling online guitar lessons or alpaca wool socks or trained ferrets  or whatever we need to get commerce going.  We need to do this before we start chasing more exchanges.  Adding more exchanges (if it's even possible) is only going to encourage more mining and dumping activity that I see people complain about because it will be more convenient for the dumpers to list their coins.  People do not need more ways to get this coin, they need a reason to get it and something to do with it.  Otherwise we're all just standing in a circle holding our nuts....I mean, uh, ACORNS!  There's a logo for you, a bunch of squirrels standing in a circle holding their acorns, cause that's where we are right now.

So, if your favorite online or brick and mortar store accepts crypto, contact them and see if they would be willing to accept HODL, even on a trial basis.  If we get a good base of merchants going, THEN you can take that list to exchanges and show them that the coin is desirable.  Chasing exchanges now is simply hoping for a false frenzy on a new exchange to temporarily boost the price.  We don't need a pump and dump, we need this coin project to grow for real.

perhaps its time to start a bounty program for a payment gateway or a way to integrate with existing ones and add our coin to it.
