The best community is a community that consists of actual owners of the coin. For XCP this group of stakeholders is really small, they keep the price manually too high, which makes it unattractive for new people to join in. People that do not own coins, will not promote it either. Cheaper price, means bigger community, means better potential for long term. To all stakeholders: please sell some of your stakes for profit now, so the coin gets decentralized and the community gets bigger.
It's really (really) early days yet. The burn period finished just over a couple of weeks ago.

I agree XCP needs to get into the hands of others to gain adoption. It will happen as the technical difficulty in obtaining XCP is lowered. The first step was being listed on a centralized exchange. The second step that will lower the hurdle to end user adoption is a web based wallet. I hope to hear more from the developers on this front soon.
