Re: [ANN] [888] [SCRYPT] OctoCoin ◦ The Power of Eight ◦ Don't Blink
The coin has barely been out a week and everyone acts like everything is falling apart because it isn't on a big exchange yet. Almost all exchanges are driven by community voting now so we all have as much pull as anybody else. I've been voting on MintPal every hour for 2 days now but we're so far down the list that it almost seems better to wait until we're up for voting on Cryptsy before shelling out BTC for votes (I'll continue to get my hourly votes in though.) Everybody should contact Cryptsy and ask them to add us - they do claim that some coins will be added without even having to go through the voting process. Everyone can't just sit back twiddling their thumbs waiting for the devs to take care of everything to make them rich. Put in some effort! Every coin is the same thing - a bunch of miners that feel entitled and complain about progress. You will notice that the people complaining never actually do anything to help they just want to make their profit with as little effort as possible. I've exchanged a few messages with one of the devs of this coin and they are working on some awesome software releases exclusively for 888 and letting the community take the lead on getting listed on exchanges. I'm sure members of the dev team will chip in BTC if we can get things closer. It's funny because I'm dealing with this same situation with all 3 coins I'm invested in right now. Awesome coins with great devs and a lot of potential but communities that consist primarily of people that would rather complain about progress than help out. I know that doesn't apply to all of you and even I could have done more to help but now I'm all-in here. This coin had a pretty huge launch and a ton of people are holding OctoCoins - lets start moving this thing along!
The dev made a claim that he is a large shareholder on Cryptsy and as someone else already pointed out, throwing BTC at an exchange to get 888 listed shouldn't be a problem. Voting is cool and I am very impressed with the number of votes 888 has received. At this point, it may not even be helpful to blow 888's load and get listed on a major exchange because very little information has been released about this coin's future. People are holding 888 with faith that the dev is not full of it. I believe that when the time is right, some substantial information about what this coin may be released along with a listing on another exchange. If not, then the coin may die and a small number of people will be upset. It's really all up to the secretive, large share-holding dev at this point, but community votes do help!
Also, with only about 185,000 Octocoins produced each day after the reward dropped, the dev may be just banking on the coin's scarcity causing a price increase and not be in a hurry to inform the public about the coin's usefulness nor list the coin on a more prominent exchange.
I think you are confusing Cryptsy with Google - I am also a Cryptsy shareholder (and I even own a couple shares of Google) but because I have a couple BTC in Cryptsy shares doesn't mean I want to spend $2000 on 888 votes by myself just because I have a few dollars in investments. Maybe the dev is loaded and will just throw money at it but to me that seems like a BS excuse for the community being lazy (as I was mentioning earlier.) I don't care if the dev is a billionaire everybody should be doing their part. I'm sure many of us have more OctoCoins right now than the entire dev team. I believe he pointed out that he was a Cryptsy shareholder to show that even shareholders aren't given any advantages. I know I've contacted Cryptsy before about adding coins and, as a shareholder myself, they aren't even up to be voted on yet (let alone trading on the exchange.) So it's not all up to the dev - it's up to us as well. I've personally gotten over 400 votes in at MintPal - that's almost half. Imagine if there were 25-30 others out there doing the same?
+1 Stop complaining and start voting!!

Re: [ANN] [888] [SCRYPT] OctoCoin ◦ The Power of Eight ◦ Don't Blink
I would like to announce the release of OctoCoin on CryptoALTeX, LLC, www.cryptoaltex.com Many of you may have already used our services for other coins, we opened three weeks ago with BlackCoin and received over 130BTC volume within the first 48 hours along with 1200 user registrations. We have made even more system improvements since then and hope you place on your list of trusted exchanges.
We are registered as an LLC in the state of Colorado, USA and as we begin to raise capital will be moving towards requiring the necessary government paperwork to become registered money services business which at this time, according to lawyers is not required for virtual/virtual pairing but could be required any day here in the USA.
We will continue to add trading pairs and hope to have a nice update released today that will bring a chatbox to our site. There is also a much more detailed "About" page that details are security posture among other things.
If you have any questions please feel to contact me via irc.freenode.net #cryptoaltex or submit a ticet @ https://cryptoaltex.freshdesk.com
Happy Trading!!

Is there a coin called PRO that I'm not aware of? Otherwise why wouldn't you call it PRO instead of PCN?

The tipbot's help link (wiki/index) is broken/missing. Might be discouraging for a newb.
If you haven't already, make a post on the subreddit and bring that to their attention. There's some one click commands in the sidebar, though, so shouldn't be too bad.
Done.

USWEST (LAX*) P2Pool for Octocoin
Payout directly to your Octocoin Wallet, no TX fee No way to rip you off! DDOS resistant (Add second p2pool node as fallback) All Nodes work together as one pool
I'm pleased to report that the pool at http://[Suspicious link removed] is mining blocks. Please come and mine with us! For the first 8 days our fee is 0.5%, PPLNS, and we will be doing a weekly giveaway of 25% of our earnings. Please read the notice on the site, and use our stratum servers at [Suspicious link removed] (US) and [Suspicious link removed] (Singapore).
First time I've ever seen a pool use whole new subdomains for coins/endpoint rather than a subdomain like useast.[Suspicious link removed]. Any particular reason for that?
Also why didn't we find any blocks in the first 500 or so?
*EDIT 2014 and we can't link to .tk domains?! Really?!
