Attention Devs

Earlier I sent a PM to Rat4 to no avail, so I will post here as well. Thank you for making the changes to the BlackCoin.co homepage so quickly. Moving the "Buy Blackcoin" section up to the top of the page will help first time visitors just learning about BlackCoin.

I have one more request I hope you can implement before next Wednesday. Our press release will target North America and select European countries. Our release will go to some of the top financial websites, and their readers are interested in investment opportunities. Unfortunately these readers have short attention spans and if the information isn't right in front of them they can get distracted very easy. Can we have a real time ticker on the front page that gives the value of BC in USD, EUR, GBP, CAD, and AUD?

AAaaaand it's fixed

(huge thanks to maarx for fixing this)

Once again great job!!! I think it is fine the way it is. Anyone who has ever traded stocks/forex should clearly understand. I think you should consider removing SAT for either CAD or AUD. I purposely left out BTC when I suggested adding the prices for a reason. BlackCoin was developed to be the better coin, and whether we say it publicly or not we think BlackCoin is better than Bitcoin. I think we as a community want BlackCoin to become independent from Bitcoin. Just because something was developed first, or because more people use it doesn't mean it is better. So why if most of us here think BlackCoin is better, why do we need to display how much BlackCoin is worth in BTC/SAT?

I read the first draft of our press release and it focuses on the differences between BlackCoin and Bitcoin, and why BlackCoin is better. As Bitcoin prices keep dropping people are going to want to invest in another coin, and why can't it be BlackCoin?

Also, we keep having these debates between BlackCoin and Mintcoin, and I honestly do not know why. Every time one of us respond to a "Mint is better" post, we are giving Mint undeserved attention. When you are a boxer and you are hungry for the title, you do not keep fighting the boxer that you have already beaten, you go after the champion. We have already "beaten" Mint and we as a community need to focus on the Champion (Bitcoin). As a community can we pledge to ignore Mintcoin posts in this thread?

I think BlackCoin still has a long ways to go before we can really loose the price in BTC and go fiat only. We actually choose for SAT since it's a way bigger nummer to show (6000 looks alot better then 0.00006 Wink

) and it is clear for the current community what it is.

Great job, can't wait to see the draft

You will be surprised how quickly something can catch on. It took Bitcoin years because not many people were paying attention. However, more people are paying attention to crypto-currencies and people are looking for the next Bitcoin.

That was the first draft I received. I should receive the second/final draft today. I will send to you and Rat4 to review. This weekend I will allow the contributors to read.
