Since the name of the coin is Grumpycoin, I think maybe a good application would be to start using it to tip people with bad attitudes or negative comments on forums.

It would be an interesting dynamic because although people would technically be rewarded financially for being rude or pessimistic, the reward would come with a little bit of shame. It's like an oxymoron.

I don't know exactly how it would play out, but a whole bunch of interesting behavior and hopefully lighthearted joking negitivism and tipping could develop. It would be a lot of fun. Bizarro Doge.

I don't know how to start that or make a tipbot or whatever on Reddit, but if someone likes the idea and knows more about how to set it up, I will definitely use some of my grumpycoins to tip haters. Much more fun than downvoting, don't you think?

Great idea. I was just thinking about forking the twittercoin source code and making a Twitter tip bot for Grumpy.

Oh awesome! That is basically exactly the response I was hoping to get! I really hope you do it...we could really get some momentum for this coin I think. Plus, I honestly want to be the first one to tip some a-hole a grumpycoin. lol.

Edit: Just thought of how it could be used. Unlike with btc and doge, where people actually tip a buck or two sometimes, with grump you would tip them insignificant amount of grumpycoin so that the monetary value is not even worth taking the time to transfer to your wallet. Maybe even so low that the transaction cost is more than the tip. Hahaha. This would also work better with more coins, so another reason to keep it 50 billion

Yeah it could be funny! I will start looking into it and give updates as I make progress. Thanks for contributing.
