I hope you and MightyX would still work together to help this coin because I agree with stance on merge mining. You can't expect kitteh to have the same success as doge just by being a fun meme coin like the many other copycats. I'm all for some major changes that will help increase value because until then we're not really gonna have a community. Like someone else said it goes both ways.. no one is going to want to donate or be involved when their coins literally lost over 95% of their. Kitteh had the most growth and attention when the price was steadily increasing so hopefully we can go back to those days.

My view is that its the people and community that makes the coin successful. Doge has done excellent to get people to spread the message about dogecoin and its charitable focus and its those people that will benefit kittehcoin immensely.

I don't have time at the moment to reply to tmx comments but basically the POS system isn't new and other coins have and will develop it and wipe out any advantage it holds technologically.  In a nutshell its people that matter more than technology eg bitcoin. If we can do both as I think vermit suggested than great.

It's time we decide that we will do whatever it takes to make that happen. And some wishy-washy memes and donations to non-profits is not going to bring kitteh back. Tough choices need to be made.

I think dogecoin has already proven you incorrect on your opinion on "the wishy washy memes and donations to non-profits". To be blunt I find your posts offensive and immature to say the least. I have doubts about if you are the right person to lead the project.

The POS idea is inferior to mergemining with dogecoin for the reason that mergemining will gain community members from doge (both coins are similar which also needs to be taken into account) will be highly beneficial. The community and usage of the coin is what drives value/price.

I'm one of the top holders of kittehcoin and I'm not in favour of POS or POW over merge-mining.

I don't know how you can decide on a new focus without having discussed it with the community or myself (I work on the marketing), personally I've just pulled 5.5 btc buy order for kittehcoin as your approach is not very involving - do you have any credibility/experience to take this coin forward?

From what I saw the folks writing in chat, it looks like he is trying to come in and take over the new foundation that the group has been working on building and setting up for the last month or so.

Yeah just went onto IRC and it sounds like he has annoyed a lot of the community already with his my way or the highway attitude. TBH I haven't seen him on irc before which is concerning as I have been in there most the day for the last few months. Also he pm'ed me offering me rewards for marketing the coin when I market it for free. This raises the question of how he can find rewards for such a task. This isn't my main concern, my two concerns are his love of multipools (which I hate as they go against my ehtos and what I thought kittehcoin was against) and he wants to go Proof-of-Stake instead of Proof-of-Work which will rule out merge mining with dogecoin and others. Overall if these changes go ahead I'll be dumping my coins on the market which will surely crash it.

I can do spanish translation Wink good luck

Spanish is already online (https://kittehcoin.info/espanol/ was put on about hmm 3 weeks ago) and we also have a twitter account, myself and cryptoargentina worked on it. cryptoargentina looks after the Spanish twitter account.

I personally offer a bounty of 1.5 Millioin MEOW to anyone willing to do a translation into all the following languages

-japanese
-mandarin
-italian

ANYONE feel free to add to the bounty MEOW:K8UwcYyCngKLaQT95UrhMkKCBDj6jT6qQu

The mandarin (simplified) is about to be put online and is close to completion so no need for a bounty for that - but its a great idea for a bounty.  I've already had a offer for a free translation of Japanese, Russian, Portuguese Brazilian and dutch translation from members of the community and fans of kittehcoin which I have sent the document off for to translate which I will code up when they come back.



The new focus of Kittehcoin will be Sustainability, Marketability and Charitability.
Ok I made that last word up. But it sounded nice, right?

No Kitteh is not dead, its only used up 1 of its 9 lives (2 if you count previous dev takeover).
Our Kitteh still has a long life to live and will have learned many lessons along the way.

I don't know how you can decide on a new focus without having discussed it with the community or myself (I work on the marketing), personally I've just pulled 5.5 btc buy order for kittehcoin as your approach is not very involving - do you have any credibility/experience to take this coin forward?

I've added the new exchange to the homepage and removed some of the mining pools that are no longer supporting kittehcoin.

To support kittehcoin the best things you can do is to mine it and join in with the community promoting it.

Please join our community on the irc channel found on the www.kittehcoin.info homepage if you wish to help/mine or just fancy a chat about kittehcoin.

Please join us on twitter, facebook and reddit.

Our facebook page is kittehcoin https://www.facebook.com/kittehcoin

Our twitter accounts are @kittehcoin (english) @kittehcoinES (spanish) @kittehcoinChina (chinese)

Our reddit page is http://www.reddit.com/r/KittehCoin

I'll see if I can get a chance to discuss the digishield stuff with the others in the team and setup a bounty.

i dont think there is manipulator
there are sellers, demand, network difficulty/security

When buy and sell walls magically change at the same time, it's not just many sellers/buyers, there's a huge whale moving the walls..

It's very hard to market a coin and get enough buyers to increase the price when it gets raped mined and dumped on the market to the extent that it easily knocks down the price. Yesterday there was a few btc going on 5, I was buying it up so were others and more would keep coming onto the market, today there is 15 btc worth of meow for sale on 5 at cryptsy. This is the extent of the rape mining. This week alone 120 million kittehcoin have been mined and most of it - IMO - dumped onto the market.

Unless this problem is addressed quickly I fear that kittehcoin will be going the way of the dodo.

Is there not something that can be done to stop multipools from doing this? I was thinking setting up a miners against multipools where we alert miners to coins that are getting rape mined and they can join in mining that coin to neglate the rape mining. Would that help or is that stupid? I don't know a lot about mining.

Hi kittehcoin fans,

This is my first post on here. I am a big kittehcoin fans so would like to thank the devs and community of the coin.
There are a few positives (mining etc) in the announcement and a major negative.

I've asked a few times to do the marketing for kittehcoin on twitter and facebook as this is where my background is. I was asked to be on irc to talk with dano about 2 weeks ago, so I've been on for around 2 weeks but haven't managed to get any contact with dano yet.

My one big regret is that I have still not had a proper conversation with any of the devs despite being on irc a lot of the day for 2 weeks. It makes it hard to know how to market a coin/procede if none of the leaders are around to discuss.

In the meantime I have started working with rodux (or rodox sorry not great with names) on a marketing plan and I have worked with chinatuakong (again not great with names) on doing a Chinese language twitter account https://twitter.com/kittehcoinchina (webibo coming soon)  I've also discussed doing a Spanish one with a community member who will translate the main kittehcoin twitter tweets to Spanish which will increase our reach.

In response to the fund raising question for kittehcoin. The only fundraising requests I have seen are:

•   Twitter tipbot which a community member is going to do for free (think its cryptoargentina)
•   Bitcoin request for entrance to mintpal (https://www.mintpal.com/voting) - which has had good donations this is despite the non ethical element of paying to be listed - we are now 5th or 6th (maybe a kittehcoin address which we transfer into bitcoin for this purpose might also be worth getting more donations)
•   A request to save a dog on reddit which was met.

I can't agree with comment saying that there has been little funds if the marketing of receiving funds has been non existent- you have got to let the community know what the coins are for and how it will benefit the community - no one will give you coins without a cause or reason.

From a marketing point of view I can't see what the benefit was of announcing you want to mergemine with another coin but basically saying you are stepping down was? Surely the other coin will want a stable development team that doesn't look like they are off to work on another coin.

In terms of getting a developer on board to take the reigns what is the process that this usually takes?

Now I am seeing people tweeting about the end of kittehcoin! It is up to people to step up to the plate and get involved -most of you guys have a twitter/fb account that you can  easily tweet and market the coin with the kittehcoin community.  We all have a unique skill that can be utilised with other kittehcoin fans to promote and develop the coin and community. Come onto the irc on kittehcoin.info if you are unsure what you can add and have a chat.
