did anyone speak to the dev?
any news?

What do people want to talk to the dev about? News regarding what?

The dev's already made and launched the coin, the coin has a faucet, video, give away, website, pools, is listed on exchanges, has a block explorer, the source code is available, there are pre-compiled wallets, unclaimed bounties, links to stand alone mining applications, links to some social network sites, the dev has outlined a plan and provided direct contact details.

What more??

@derrend First of all,thanks for your understanding.

We strongly believe QuarkBar will be the next big thing, but we can't do it alone. As known,we have already done most of things which a cryptocurrency needed. What QuarkBar needs now is the whole community work together. Every little thing counts and small actions will add up to make this coin a huge success.
In addition, we will also buy some QB as the bounty for your help. So send pm to us about what exactly you would be able to do and let us work together to make QB a real huge success!

I would like to take on the challenge to help this coin.

I have a pretty good idea why this coin isn't catching on: There is no story or reason behind it. It needs a short description to promote it.

I would say it is the following things:
- Secure: 9 rounds of hashing
- Rare: Only 15 million available
- Fair: No premine and Kimoto Gravity Well
- Quick: 30 seconds per block

From this I made a banner that hopefully better explains the coin ( you can find it at http://i.imgur.com/B87XMoN.jpg):

The downsides:
- Hard to mine for noobs. They are more used to renting rigs and mine scrypt, Scrypt-N or SHA-3 coins
Solution: Get a clear explanation on the website to explain how it works like: http://www.quarkcoins.com/mining-quarkcoin.html
- No Premine, so no marketing
Solution: Get the community involved and reward them in a Hall of Fame on your website. This is free and considerate to the amount of time they invested.
- Nothing wrong with it. I know, a perfect coin is nice, but does not create a lot of discussion on [Suspicious link removed]Olution: Get the community involved and let them discuss the future of the coin. Implementing proof of stake could be a good next step for example.

Great job
We have added your banner on the OP
Many Thanks!

Thanks.:-) my background is in communications, but not in design, so if somebody can create something spiffier, be my guest:-)
