Re: [ANN] Official Unobtanium Thread Open Again! : Current Release 0.9.4
LMFAO, seriously, that video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q3rLof2cnzg Oh my god it is so tacky and 80's health class feeling. Really guys, thanks, the time and effort of actually doing something is appreciated. "Real store of wealth"; Not enough of a store of wealth to actually hire someone to produce something a little better. NEVER FORKED! ZOMG! I don't even think people care so much about forking any more. There have been quite a few coins that fork and still have people dabbling in them. What ever other pointless points the video makes.
Here is a video for Continuum coin, the coin is blech, but i think the video is a little nicer to look at. https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=WoE87l7B2MI
Uno deserves something of epic proportions, after all it is FUCKING UNOBTANIUM, you can't just get this shit anywhere, i would venture to say it is rather hard to obtain. I am no scientist though!
It is the same selling points as on the website, buy uno and other people are going to want them just because they can't have them. That is true. Some will want it simply because they cannot have it. Is that enough?
I mined this coin when it was first released and bought up my fair share of them. I have been sitting on it, because with the rarity of it, it should be worth more. But if no one wants it, it doesn't matter how rare it is. The recent news on the other thread about uno, would be nice if they some how merged both threads, might give it some attention but i just don't know.
If ya go back and read Blazr2's comments about the coin when it first came out. The guy certainly seems to have quite the personality.
What i envisioned was some guy flipping off everyone with both hands being all "bah, i made the coin for you, have no stake in it, if you wanna do something with it, here it is."
I had a flash back when i read:
Which is the same from the start, here is this thing i made, what can you guys do with it? Nothing wrong with that, just nothing much has really been done either.
I am really wondering what can be done to garner more interest in this coin? I am pretty clueless, with the amount of coins out there, what type of things can uno do to set it's self up for becoming the platinum standard of the crypto world?

Current plans for Un: none earth shattering. Updates/maintenance of the clients will continue. Shilling to increase value is not up to the software maintainers--there is plenty of community support for that. We have returned to assist now that the community has been unable to find a new maintainer of the code--not so that you can count on making more money, that's up to you.

you are right: it is about raising awareness for uno
i think one big plus is the healthy network and i don't see a problem with having that maintained. Everybody expects everything spoon-fed. FK once said: 'the biggest asset of a coin is its community' and he is right with that.
Uno has a beautiful distribution (look at the top 100 list). Nobody owns a too large piece of it as far as i can see (largest wallet around 6tons, second largest around 4 tons). That is also the reason i am willing to put some of my work into it.
So it is up to the people holding the coin to raise awareness for it and to help building services and improovements. Uno is not spoon-fed. That is not a negative point.
Also: uno evaded being totally controlled by wolong. Wolong is out. The community dumped on his fake pump. That is also a good point.
The community has prooven to be less sheep than many others. The coin is intelligent and was able to fight off abusers and maintain a good distribution.
Uno is not instamined and not premined, it is fast, it never forked, it is a safe place to put your money. It is bitcoin on steroids. What elese do you want? Uno is going to be around for a long time. Maybe longer than the USD and the EUR.
I prefer a stable coin, that is working like a clockwork with a healthy network that is going to be around for years maybe decades any time over a one-pump-wonder with a short hype and with a lot of new gimmicks that do not work when you want to use them and a wallet that does fall out of snyc.
So i would define uno as a store of wealth. It doesn't get any better than that. Let's raise awareness. If everybody just does what he/she can do best to improove the coin it'll be a big success.
Uno is fair and honest - that sets it apart form maybe 80%-90% of the other coins. Look at the litecoin-story. Why is it there? Because it was fast, fair and honest. What i am saying: the fundamentals for Uno are good.
If you want things spoon-fed you need to turn to the government or the authorities. It is up to the community to give the coin more value. Build some services, raise some awareness. Don't be a lazy cunt.
Sitting on your hands and criticising the work of others is not an accomplishement.
You don't like the vid? Do a better one.
How about a video contest? Let's everybody donate 1 or 2 uno to a fund and have a contest for the creation of the best promo-video.
