Obv just my opinion but My thoughts on where its at:
Airdrop is shooting for the stars by calling out celebs instead of just coin holders like you typically see, and if im a gambling man, which i am, they already had at least 1 of those locked up and not announcing it until the 4th. being a marketer also, that would be my way of doing it to attract the most attention all at once. with alts, thats the best way to take off and sustain it with big exposure, like doge did. so unless the airdrop is nothing more than a tweet on twitter somehow, july 4th, this coin will sore to new heights.
the coin the last 3 days has more volume than i believe its entire existence prior to that. bleutrade.com has blown up with nyc bids raising every day, asks being slapped every day at higher and higher levels. it is going from a few slaps above .002 doge to now being hit for .003999, and in the bunches, this isnt a small amount of coin. from 3 litoshi to 10 litoshi. someone boasted on there that they have 6 billion nyc through all of the trades he did early on and is waiting for the storm that he proposes is coming.
you have the typical penny stock style pumpers on this board but you also have a growing community which is needed for any successful altcoin.
mining hasnt really slowed down for the most part to an extreme now. sustained at about 100mh on 1 available pool for nyc mining.
the main part is we are so close to cryptsy i can taste it and being on a massive exchange like that is essentially an immediate boost to viewers of the coin, buyers of the coin, spreaders of the coin, exactly as any successful alt does.
i have a strong feeling that an update is coming on or around the 4th as well, POS as well as all wallets they have been developing.
my one true concern is the lack of updates on the status of progress. if that changes, this could be a monster fast. great idea behind it, newyorkers hate banks, tons of east coast hippies there, the breeding ground for trying new things and social acceptance of anything, did i mention hippies.
im a holder of only 100 mil but i am holding long on this one. i wont be selling in the coming pump that will happen over the next 3 weeks.
GL to all
