Guessing the bitcointalk thread isn't as big of a priority for these guys as it is to other coins since they're all software developers. They seem to tweak it every week at most. I know the P2Pool was working for me as recently as two days ago.
Also... hey Jay! I'm starving over here! ETA on the jerky?

what is your order number, the last 4 digit on your invoice?
I saw you are supposed to allow up to 7 business days on that jerky delivery. I doubt the delivery guy is munching on your jerky.

Ok, I'm currently at about 250k but as a student this is already far above my money risk threshold. Now I'm just not sure if I should bet my last shirt on this coin...
IF the market cap reaches a value of say 10m, which is a realistic number IMO, then I'll be sorry not to have bought some more octos, when I had the chance.
On the other hand, if I take the profit then, spot another octocoin-like promising coin in the future and reinvest, this would be much safer.
What do you guys think: all in and hope this will be a one shot, one hit? Or play it safe?
If something is a above your risk threshold you are in effect gambling, and the game could go every which way, because you have intense feelings about it, and are bound to make mistakes and panic moves. Sort of. Unless you are a brilliant chess player.
If you are not sure if you want to bet your last shirt, then you really don't want to do it ! You have plenty of Octo already, so you should be happy.
Never bet more than half of what you can afford in a single purchase. I recently was tempted to go "all in"... I almost put everything in on "sure thing" investment.. however, even though I was tempted to go all in, i didn't, because I had my rule " never bet more than half of what you can afford", and guess what.. the investment turned out to be dud, and I lost 1/3 of that investment... boy was I happy that I followed my own rule...
I think you should diversify your alt coin investments a bit more. It just makes sense, because in alt coin land strange things can/will happen between eye blinking. - so don't blink
Just try to find a coin that gives you the same vibes as Octo (hard), or you think that has some untold potential ? (many)
Good luck!
I agree. I have been advising people financially for a very long time and have always maintained a 20% rule. Having more than 20% of your portfolio in any one investment is very risky. If you have outside holdings to balance out your "all in Octo", that would help. I have been an Octocoin holder from day one (my son mined and I bought). I have a few coins that I think have a good chance of going the distance, but Octo is only the second one that gave me that 'chill up the spine, holy crap, this one is really different - it actually sounds professional' feeling. If you are looking to diversify in another coin that has a business plan mapped out for years down the road, extremely active developers, and a very well behaved community, then check out DNotes. That was the first coin that gave me that feeling.
p.s. At this point I would not sell your Octocoin to diversify - find the money elsewhere, like selling the neighbour's barking dog!
Hi, I guess I will stick with your 20% rule. sounds pretty reasonable!
Actually I wanted to buy some more, but there were almost no sell orders left. And with the current hashrate I would need to rent some very big farms on betarigs.
Anyway, I'm visiting the coin calendar everyday, in the hope that some promising new coin will appear before my eyes
I guess thats the best strategy: patiently waiting for real coins with a serious vision.Though I'm a bit hesitant about coins with a completely new architecture, as I know how hard it is to create a completely secure system, when there are so many smart people around searching for security breaches etc.

Looks like the voting has dropped off by a lot in the last 2-3 days on mintpal? Everyone must be enjoying the weekend, hopefully it picks up again during the week.

i'm closing in on 100k, i've been mining AND buying since the beginning. SlickCorp is headquartered in Canada =p sold pretty much everything else i had to get more octos. i was half-considering buying the rest all the way to 6000 satoshis when i saw it start to skyrocket yesterday ^_^
and btw, can whoever has sell orders for 0.00913000 can you PLEASE pull them!? it makes the bittrex chart impossible to read, and completely useless. i know we all want this coin to be worth $10, but ti's not, and right now you're ruining the party for alot of traders who would like to see the TRUE order volume graphs.
PLEASE TAKE IT DOWN, i asked about a month ago, and to no avail. come on, do the right thing.

There was someone who had a sell order for 250K Octos for somewhere around 26 BTC total. I had some blockers up there to keep it off the charts, but most were, unfortunately, bought up during last evenings run up to 3588 satoshi... Looks like there are plenty of sell orders now that they are a ways off the chart, but another big buying spree could cause them to show up again.
I really thought those blockers were high enough to be safe from sale... Now I need to buy some more Octo to replace those that sold... or rent some hash power... Maybe a little of both!

That's what I was thinking bholzer, I thought if the Dev's aren't necessarily checking the pool statuses them so it might help if someone told them (for next time they come and visit us with news goodies).
I'm a little interested in the geographical distribution of coins.
We (the bearded council) are based in the UK and have been mining Octo since launch and have a bit under 100k 888 How about you guys?

The OP Pools could do with an update.
Only Fusionhash (beware their password reset doesn't seem to work) and Fedaykins are still working the others are either down or 888 is disabled.

I second this, this is the most simple to fix problem the coin has (which says something!). Coinmine.pw has octo too, tho it is currently under maintenance.

well, that little experiment seems to have been conclusive, price went up and hash went up. pulling in a solid 1.2 GH now!
having fun talking to people in various trollboxes about octo, tonight's an easy night to drum up some intrigue. when everyone's waxing over the top 5 PnD coins, talking about "the future" gets them all a flutter. considering the mostly toxic atmosphere those trollboxes usually are, i've been surprised with how receptive alot of peopel have been, must have linked this thread and the website at least 10 times, usually to multiple "sounds cool! i'm def going to check this out!"
this is a "tentacles on the ground" campaign gentlemen, move out!
*ppppssssst, just cause a lot of coins had their vote numbers cut down, we just flew ahead 4 places to #12 today. don't rest, now's not the time to relax, we gotta keep the pressure up. to be a top 10 coin on MP will get us a lot of attention. it's already beginning, keep it up!

Very nice video! Short, sweet, entertaining, and very informative. Funny thing is at the end when it shows the thumbnails of other videos, there's a couple of em from CryptoMoneyExchange demonstrating mining on my pool!
There are only 5 or 6 videos in total with anything about OctoCoin on Youtube right now. The two with the most views, both happen to be mine. The one above, I put together rather quickly and I have been meaning to create something better, but haven't found the time. Now that we are getting more information from the OctoDevs, I may have to make some time to get something new out there...
My other OctoCoin video (Vote 888 at Mintpal) is better, I think. You should embed it on your main OctoPool page to remind people to vote!
Great idea! I'm gonna do that right now.
Check it out! http://888.fedaykin.us
SOON!
Try this video instead: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5RpXy7ZWbug. It's actually the "Vote 888 at Mintpal" video. Shorter... better. (Probably should have included the link in my original message)

One of my best investments so far. Really great work.
