+ vote #18 on CCEX

Everyone who held on to their SC is going to be happy.  Everyone who is negative is either (1) a daytrader who doesnt care about the brand and deserves their own bitter, meaningless lives, or (2) someone who sold all their coins and doesnt want to see anyone else prosper if they cant also and therefore deserves their own bitter, meaningless lives.  SC has endured.  Sorry if you didnt.  

Heres a crappy meme.  Im glad other people have done better, but I felt the occasion needed some additional fluffers.

The only problem with that is the coin wont come up in Google search results.  The tag "silkcoin" or "silk coin" needs to be established as the main reference to the coin, otherwise the webcrawlers wont place it at the top of search results.  That will discourage new crypto adopters from adopting it. We want it to be distinguished from the metatag "Silk" which already referes to a million other things online.

Definitely SILK for the ticker!

SILK should be the ticker.  But the tradename (i.e., as in trademark, and for use in metatags, or the name of the coin in colloquial jargon) should be silkcoin or silk coin, otherwise a Google search for "SILK" would not turn up the coin in the top page of the results.

SING: a supermeme meets a superbly developed coin.  Sell all of your household appliances on Craigslist and buy Singularity coin, now.

This is one of the most promising coins I've seen in a while.

Here's why I like Bitblock, because unlike the other X15 algos, it isnt being overhyped.  Slow and steady builds a healthier network, while pump and dumps attract volatility.  Ive been poor-man-mining BBL (hitting the fountain) since it launched, and I expect it to gain value for at least the next few months assuming the devs keep up with its evolution.  So, overall, a great X15 buy and hold coin right now.

No other coin has survived so long with such little investment and effort from devs.  Thats about all there is good to say about this coin now.  Im not selling mine, but if anyone wants to take over this coin, there is a core group of believers who would support the effort. (hint: cryptocoin revival foundation).

8 billion coins and a 30sec block time... now thats a system that could FUEL a global economy.  Everyone should hold at least 5000k of these babies.  If the devs keep producing, hold 10x to 100x more.

I had the same problem and used the same fix on my XP system

NYC has survived because of the community that believes in it.  Whoever the devs are - step up or step down.

We have won our place on SwissCex.  Now there is another chance to get accepted on coinpayments.net.  If anyone has the resources and know how to get NYC in the running for this latest drive, this could be the clincher that saves this coin.  see https://www.coinpayments.net/coinreq

Im ready to vote NYC there as I did every hour on swissex, and I know the rest of you will too.  Any takers??

No offense, and Im glad youre thinking about how to improve this coin, but what you have proposed is not innovation, its jumping on the bandwagon.  Every other coin has forked to PoS and I see no real marginal value in that. 

We all bought NYC knowing it had a huge coin volume.  I expected that to lead to higher liquidity and broader adoption.  But the problem is, we have no marketplace, no pipes, no merchant adoption, drawing on that liquidity.  So the coin has stagnated.  But the power of the name keeps the network alive very successfully.

At the very least, NYC occupies a piece of valuable real estate.  If we abandon the network, someone else will scoop up the coins at bargain bin prices (present prices) and then bide their time until a major new crypto tool emerges that adds real marginal value to whatever coin adopts it.  Then there will be a relaunch.  Then shoot me...

The dev is right that merchant adoption and community enthusiasm are our rate limiting variables now.  Changing the coin specs will just split up the network and decrease the number of full nodes on the other side of the fork, because not everyone will participate in the changeover.

What is this coin's strongest attribute?  The name.  Period.  All that name needs to grow huge is a reliable reputation and coin velocity, that is, a strong pulse in its merchant-related activity.

Our day will come.  We will rebuild stronger when the right opportunity arrives.  PoS isnt that.  PoS/poW switching will only spark volatility and encourage PnD cycles.

People need a way to use NYC.  Anything is valuable at this point.  Find any merchant anywhere to at least show support for the concept of NewYorkcoin and the pulse of the network will gain a little more velocity.  The network effect would take care of scaling up to see real growth.  Everyone should be focusing on how to encourage people to acquire and use NYC.  PoS just takes care of the acquiring.  We need use.  NYC needs to flow in order to have life and grow.

I just voted #400 which puts you in 10th place.  You guys do have some strong support out there somewhere.  That was a fast rise.   But can you do the next 4000?  If you can, dont make it look natural, just blast the #1 contender out of the way.  Make a statement.

Stocking up on COOL

I agree.  FAIL coin has a delightful tipping aspect.  The future android human hybrid will be able to receive good KARMA coin, maybe win a bonus coin, maybe sexy females will inspire tips in pinkcoin, but most likely the average person will deserve a handful of FAIL coins, day after day. 

And think of the publicity potential: for example, someone ought to offer politicians and celebrities FAIL bounties.  1 billion FAIL to Barack Obama for his foreign policy.  Don't worry, he wont claim it...

I would never expect to replace bitcoin, unless of course something happens that causes people to lose faith in that network.  This risk will preserve the need to have altcoins.  Altcoins and parallel blockchains will always exist to hedge against exposure to risk in bitcoin.  Then the only question is how usable are the next best bitcoin alternatives.  Not everyone cares about anonymity.  And bitcoin is expensive.  There is the simple psychological factor that people will want to conduct daily transactions in small integers, like four coins for a burger, not .0099000.

But bitcoin will catch on fast in NYC.  Demand for some altcoins will be strong.

There is huge potential interest in cryptocurrencies in central and south america.  It is illegal to import mining equipment into some of those countries (like argentina).  The economy of venezuela is worse than bunnycoin... etc.  A coin directed towards this demographic can do well, if it can break through.  Give it a shot.  Devs should make contacts in each latin american country to see if they cant get strong nodes up and running in each.  Adoption would follow en masse.  And, people in north america like to buy various "products" from latin america so I imagine it would eventually trade well in the US and canada.

What the hell, its only one more wallet on the desktop lol.  Heres mine (and a backup):

thank you

Someday there will be a NewYorkCoin.  We have the chance now to be that coin.  We need more from the devs and more from the community.  When I say we, I am speaking as an early investor and not as a dev.

We finished near the top of the voting on coinpayments during their last competition, in the company of some other very successful coins, and there is still voting going on at Swisscex where NYC is almost at the top.  We are very close to breathing life into the coin.

The network / blockchain is still operational and Im getting 11 node connections which is more than most altcoins have.  The coin is not dead, it just has no real world utility yet.  It has a meme that must eventually bear fruit.  The only question is whether it can gain acceptance in the marketplace and whether its users are mere speculators or actual productive supporters.

If you were looking for a free ride or a quick buck, NYC isnt that.  If you believe that New York is a major hub for cryptocurrencies and that an established NYC coin has a manifest destiny to succeed there eventually, then roll your sleeves up and contribute focused effort to the cause.  It doesnt matter so much how many exchanges carry the coin now, look at Karma, they have a massive market cap and almost no footprint on the exchanges.


Im voting on Swisscex and I have btc loaded into coinpayments in case they open another round of voting.  The devs could at least release a wallet upgrade or give the network a revamp to show that they are committed and professional.  If the NYC twitter account had anything big to say, I would be retweeting, but we're still talking about this airdrop.  Thats not news anymore.

Just my 2 NYC's...

admittedly... point me to the right threads
