We are all so excited in the POLONIEX Trollbox so I can't wait for it to launch and am glad to have invested in the IPO. I hope to do a blog post tomorrow for the coin and also we will be collaborating soon to create Google Hangouts for Coin so will be great to see you There to promote the coin when we start them. Smiley

That is where I heard about this coin -- the Poloniex Trollbox! I put in an investment (a small one) too. I really think this coin has potential (obviously, I guess!). With so much skepticism for altcoins right now, I think that people are a bit gun shy. I think they should have had investors share an equal amount of the pot of coins available. In other words, if there were a million coins set aside for this purpose, each investor would be entitled to a pro rata share of those coins upon completion of the offering. I really think that would have attracted more investors. Especially since that seems to be what they are going to essentially do with the airdrop.  

Still, the idea of the coin is solid, and once more word gets out, I think that it will really catch on.



Hi.....thanks for taking interest in the coin!

Unfortunately the model of IPO you have suggested would result in mass dumping from the few investors and kill the coin's profitability for the miners.

I really don't think that is true for a number of reasons, one of them being that there would, in my opinion, been more investors. There are other reasons as well, but I guess it is moot anyway.

On your other point about miners, they are like locusts. Investors are much more interested in a coin's success than miners. The world is littered with dead coins in which miners pretended to be enthusiastic members of the "community" until such time as they could unload them onto that very same "community". One of the reasons I like this coin is the combination of investors and the airdrop to the Bitcoin Talk forum members. Miners will work (and I'm using the word "work" loosely) for far less than they are now. This has been demonstrated these last couple of months as well as with BTC which is chugging along fine despite being supposedly non-profitable to mine.
