The DNS change for http://octocoinpool (dot) tk is about to take place in a few minutes! The main site will be located at http://888.fedaykin.us, the stratum servers will be 888US.fedaykin.us and 888SG.fedaykin.us. In case anything goes wrong during the switch, please use 192.241.241.127:3333 for mining (US stratum). I'll set up forwards from the old names to the new ones, not sure if it works with stratum though, so be on the lookout!
I thank everyone for their continued support of my pool!

Coin is not even on the vote list of Cryptsy.
Cryptorush.in it is number 5 on the Vote list, but the volume there is way too low to make this coin succesfull.
Dev hasnt updated the OP in a long while and hasnt posted there.
I have seen this before with other pump and dump coins, it means it is time to abandon ship and sell.
Unless the DEV does something visible to bring this coin back to the attention of people.
DEV, please tell us how we can help!

LOL that's pretty funny. even if everything you just said is correct there is nowhere for miners to sell. none of the exchanges have the volume to support sales. the coin has dropped down in price on all 3 exchanges and nobody is buying or selling really. In fact I bought some more yesterday just because the ones that are selling are still cheap.
Cryptorush may not have volume overall but some coins get volume. Mintpal would be better. Coinedup would be better. Cryptsy eventually is what is needed. Hardly any coin makes Cryptsy the first week.
It's obviously not a pump n dump scheme cuz the devs barely premined and what coins they did mine, where would they dump them? Where? None of the exchanges have seen the volume of a dump from the devs or any miner. So that's just crazy talk and not even speculation on your part. If they get on an exchange and dump the first 3 days and abandon the coin, then what you say has some merrit. But for now it doesn't even make sense.
The devs have been active on this board. They have said they are updating the website. They have messaged a few of the active members here, including me personally. They have said they are updating their website soon with what services are coming. They have hinted at projects with their contacts from SXSW. They have already said some info about a crowd sourcing project for Octo. They also claim they are revamping the website to educate new users about crypto in general. Almost every few days they have posted on here answering users questions. I'm sure they will quote you in the next round with a response.
Do I wish that we had some more info and updates? Is this a risk? Yes and yes. However, all of this stuff takes time. So you have two options. Either keep mining and voting for a better exchange. Or abandon ship and come back later. Or really, you have a third option, sell me all your Octo right now. I'll give you 1 cent for every 10 Octo.
I would suggest the first thing you do is go back to page one and read every post. You will see posts from the devs, so to come on here saying they devs don't post is ridiculous. Good luck and I hope you stick around.

The Dev posted 2 days ago and the coin has been released a whole 9 days!! I swear when it comes to the crypto game, people have zero patience.

The winners for our first weekly 25% giveaway have been chosen! And I forgot to post it here immediately after 
Congratulations to n0xblade, who takes the first prize of 693 888, and our runner-up, boobslayerxxx (haha cute name) winning 346.5 888! Payments were dispatched immediately.
Tune in next week for another giveaway!
The pool needs more hashes, guys! More miners equals bigger prizes for you guys!
Don't forget about our domain name change tomorrow. http://[Suspicious link removed] is changing to http://888.fedaykin.us
Main site: http://888.fedaykin.us - Stratums: 888US.fedaykin.us:3333 (USA) & 888SG.fedaykin.us:3333 (Singapore). In case it becomes unreachable for awhile, use 192.241.241.127:3333 for mining. I will set up the old domain names to forward but I don't know if that works for stratum TCP traffic or not. Anyone know?

March 16, 2014, 05:22:30 PM
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.
+1 Stop complaining and start voting!!

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?
