I like how you are thinking. Marketed correctly, we could make this a luxury crypto that is desirable to own. The stage is already set with the logo already having that touch of class about it with the black and gold finish and elegant font face.

We're stripped free of the stigma attached to Bitcoin, because people who think of Bitcoin automatically think:

- Silk road, drugs, crime (illegal activity)
- Mining bitcoins electronically on computers (difficult for the layperson to understand)
- Nerdy

So far we've got this coin off to a great start but it's only the beginning. IMO the biggest factor behind a coins success by far is marketing. Forget the technical specifications or the trading volume or anything else. Marketing is king. But it all ties together, with our strong technical specs it gives us a lot to shout about.

Well said and better explained than I did. By the end of the week people should start receiving their cards. By next week almost everyone who ordered the cards should have them. Once the word gets out about BlackCoin and the BlackCoin card people will want to own the "Luxury Coin". And you can't mine the luxury coin, you have to buy it. This makes BlackCoin exclusive in nature.

I like those lines.

If you ever want any kind of help, always feel free to pm me. I have many years experience as a web designer for an industry leading firm in the UK and I'm open to collaborating on anything that will further Blackcoin. Even if it's someone to bounce ideas off or help spread the word, just shoot me a pm.

I am here from the start. I hold BC and not trading it because it's not worth it. But we must understand few things:

1. Blackcoinpool profitability not straightforward thing. You must realise that pool is paying in BC not BTC so If I receive 60 BC and price of BC is dropping, because ppl are selling then profitability is low. And if it is followed by 3 - 4 days in a row then you have this result compared to other multipools. Dev's and pool can't predict the prices so there is no gold rule when to buy. It must be dispersed among time (24h of one cycle). Second thing that pool is about supporting coin not being profitable at current moment. Profitability will come with holding!! like yeah I receive 60 BC todays but in 2 weeks their value is 180 BC based on past prices.

2. I think that community pump is not efficient. Why? If you indicate bigger players when it will occur and trust me they will benefit from it more than you and there is very high probability that we will see dumps to lower levels that are today. If you want pump, buy BC but not gather together and reveal you plans. Do it anonymously.

3. You said, we have seen 50k, 40k, and 30k is scary low. Well take a look and see big picture of 3 weeks? are we lower? hmmm I guess not, we are higher!!! This whole period of price shifts I could say looks like normal market. Even better than financial markets with regards to time. Ppl here are not experienced investor at all. For you 1 week is perceived as long term, cause ppl start panicing when price will not go up for a week. This is nothing. Be patient. In real time world investor hold their positions for more than 3 years. This is long term. And 1 week period is super short.

4. We definitely need to focus on marketing. This is the biggest power to attract investors. We need to translate blackcoin.co into many langugages and spread this info among local crypto communities. China, UK, Germany, France, Russia, Poland, Canada, USA, Brazill, India, Japan, Spain, Portugal, Turkey, Cyprus and so on. We need to gather ppl which are native speakers and translate the site into these langugages and host them on additional domains, which could be paid from multipool profits.

BC is very strong, and I think that this recent low ride could be profitable for the coin and community. Why? beacause ppl with big bags have distributed (hopefully) their coins to more ppl than one. More distributed coins = more stable price. and no premine and POS is hammer for BTC and LTC. We must learn how to use our advantage.
