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.
