our main goal first is to be on top 3 no1 BTC no2 LTC and no3 BC... but how?

Agree that's an important goal... however I believe a more fundamental metric that we should drive is not the price, but the coin/wallet distribution.  That is something more controllable than the price.

This coin has the advantage of not having a mining inflation dump.. in fact it has the opposite via reverse multi-pool.

So really.. the *only* thing we really need to do at this point is to promote and let more people know about this coin.  If each of us just told 10 persons about this coin (and maybe even give them 1 BC to encourage them to download a wallet)... and hopefully they will tell their friends.  Use facebook, twitter, reddit, youtube videos.. other forums to spread the info on the internet.. Then the value of the coin will rise by itself.  People will see the value.

Other thing is we should leverage the advantage that Blackcoin has in terms of service compatibility.. get it on all exchanges, all wallets: android/ios/web.. get it everywhere so everyone can get access to it.

if we even cant beat AUR which i believe was left by many...

Well.. depends on how you calculate AUR, coinmarketcap recently adjusted AUR, and it's now at #28 based on current float coins instead of total available coins.  (I'm a holder of AUR as well).  



I still think a good goal would be to introduce new miners to the multipool at this point. Maybe we could make a cleaner looking blackcoin-themed GUI miner (we could take out the stratum/host/port stuff to help simplify it a bit too). Maybe set up the clients for "known hardware configs"?

If we could make the pool, literally, the simplest and easiest way to make money on the internet... well, I think that would be a good start.

edit: Are there plans to add cpu coins to the pool? I realize they're not really profitable. But it's much easier to set up a cpu mining program (basically just needs threads) and would be better for introducing noobies.
