For the sake of transparency, I would like to give the community a run down of the marketing plans for Ultracoin. There are some good things in the works, and instead of keeping it a secret I would like to share with you the current plans today. Remember, they are always shaping and evolving, but here they are:

Short Term
___________________________________
- Useultracoin.com Will be implemented as a directory for all businesses that accept Ultracoin, as well as Ultracoins services and infrastructure (Lead Time: ~2-4 Weeks)
- Ultracoin cards, PVC-PET credit card style cards that can hold wallet information, public and private keys, and can be passed out as a marketing tool for friends and family of the Ultracoin community (Lead Time: Graphic Design Phase) Examples can be found on UltracoinTalk.org/
- Vendor acceptance campaigns will continue and we will keep reaching out to businesses asking them to accept Ultracoin as payment
- Twitter and Facebook updates will continue with several posts per day advertising Ultracoin and shaping its brand image
- Improving Ultracoin talk to make it attractive enough for migration, just added a shoutbox for registered members to use. Other features are being planned.

Long Term
__________________________________
- Getting accepted as an in game currency, we will start with potential indie game developers and larger projects such as void space. The Minecraft project is still in the works, marketing efforts for the Minecraft plugin will be extensive and direct, I like to call it bunker buster marketing. (Lead Time: TBD)
- YouTube channel with instructional videos on how to mine and spend Ultracoin as well as promotional videos (Lead Time: 1-2 months)
- Use in a future gaming community me and a close friend are currently working on building. Gaming communities are actually profitable, passionate, and large communities of PC gamers where they go to find serious and passionate players. We plan to make a tongue in cheek gaming community, but gaming will be serious, and our management + programming of the community is highly professional and experienced. We are going to attempt to integrate Ultracoin into the games we use. I talk to the programmer in a couple of days, stay tuned. (Lead Time: TBD)
- Ultracoin t-shirts and other clothing, female models included (Lead Time: 1-2 months)

Sincerely,

I know you are all doing all you can to make this a success but it does not work like this, you are not doing anything different than any other vulgar coins is doing now, I wrote a few times the same, you need to do something nobody else is doing, make your coin unique!

If you are called Marketing & PR Director you should have better ideas than these, everytime I write and saying the same, UTC will go down in price if you do not do anything major, and here I am again 15 days later, I can see where this is going but I said this already 4 times but its done about it, all they talk is games and mining and coin continue to drop is you don't change your mentality and marketing strategic only talking about using UTC as game payments where EVERY coin is doing the same. I know to be in this business you need to be creative and do things has not already been done, but its very frustrating to see the plans are nothing new....This coins is going down hill everyday and its time to put this coin where it deserve to the MOON but with GREAT IDEAS and GOOD Projects. REAL MARKETING AND PROJECTS! Talk to big companies, talk to Merchandise, example ,no Macdonnald but something similar, Do something , because if doing above will not stop the downhill of this coin. I am honest and I hope this coin start to be where it belong , top 10 in the coinmarketcap!

Has anybody the same problem with Cryptsy ?

If I sent UTC from my wallet to crypsty there is no deposit at cryptsy ?

If I want the withdraw from Cryptsy there is an automatic message "Our wallet is currently offline while we perform system maintenance".

Only the UTC wallet is off line at Cryptsy "for system maintenance" , no other wallets !!!???

I have send a message/ticket to Cryptsy support but they still don't answer for more then 24 hours.

Does anybody know what is the problem Huh

no crypto is a a dead end pyramid scheme pipe-dream full of scammers and runners which is why in the end .. it will likely fade away .. kind like pog's did when i was a kid.


Don't think so, if that's what you think, you should seriously ask yourself, "what am I doing in crypto?"

Your "Insert national currency here" is the biggest Ponzi in human history.........

If you can't see there is a future in a system that is pretty much fraudless (bar the human component, exchanges and fools believing any old crap just like they do in reality) then WHY are you here? Sure, there are idiots, on both ends, (sheep farming at weekends on BTCE anyone? hahaha, lots never learn) giving away and those taking.  Instead of calling it a "dead end pyramid" shouldn't you maybe take time out and reassess your own actions?  No one has twisted anyone's arm to do anything, therefore, whatever has brought you to that conclusion, is your own poor judgement?  Greed attracts greed.  It's hilarious to watch.  try thinking for yourselves? Do your own research!! Stupid me, what a crazy notion pffff! You are the sheep, to be farmed, "shorn" you never kill your sheep, only fleece them, again and again...........If you blindly chase after anything that moves, like most of you do, hell yeah, you can expect everyone to be standing there arms open wide to take the shirt off your back, but only if you're stupid enough to allow people!

Crypto is a baby, flipping hell, to see how much it's grown since I first started mining is insane, moves SO fast.........but the principal is the same now as it's always been is it not? that is what you're looking for, you're looking for blockchains with conviction, belief, the whole f***ing reason Satoshi gave us the "greatest social experiment" in history to date.  We were handed an implement, a tool, what we choose to do with that is only limited by your imagination, or your negativity.

As long as the way the world is run as we are told it is now, there will be discontent.  Toe the corporate line or do something yourself if you don't like the way others do things.......logic? anyone?

UTC has made some mistakes, though I do believe, that Michael (Bumface) has learnt a LOT from his experience and for that alone, UTC has been a worthwhile experiment, Bumface? shit it's what it's about aint it? none of us are perfect, none of us have the answers to 42, we are makinbg this up as we go along, don't you get it?  If you people want this coin to succeed, get the pools sorted ASAP, more the merrier, decentralisation ideology brings in more than a centralised system ever will.  Unless like most, all you give a shit about is how fast you can make that profit? (chase those untouchable squirrels, go....run faster....) and complain cause you did fuck all to actually support the system except buy a few "coins" How much interest do you make if you left your money in a bank? not much, is it?  So, even say you made 5% a year on crypto, it's more than the banks will give you.  Though my thirst for gold/silver is picking up, especially IF it breaks that $700 mark (which I always buy using crypto)  Nor does my crypto ever touch that dirty FIAT stuff, conviction, belief.  I buy food using it too, can't pay gas/electric to quit using FIAT altogether yet though  Angry

a dreamer created this world and it attracts more everyday.  Mining, ability to actually spend your "money" Nah, it'll never catch on, I mean something called cryptoCURRENCY /facepalm

It's hilarious how people see this only as "investment" you all miss the whole point.  A very fortunate few, have made "money" but for the people who want to make this work, it's not about the money, only fools think in those terms, it's very limiting, honestly.  I will take full advantage of what I have to work with and if you believe that UTC has a firm grasp of what they are doing and what they are achieving, power to you, support it by doing something, i.e. spending it.....  Have you tried asking your local shops if they accept UTC? You have? Good, keep asking, ask more shops, question everything, there is no logical reason why they shouldn't other than exchange rates, which they can fix per day, 1/2day, whatever the exchange allows them.

Despite this wall of drunken blether, I'm still waiting to see the new managements cards.  One thing this world has taught me, patience!

Stop looking for someone to blame, and instead, ask yourselves, how can I help?

Good news guys,  cryptohosted.com has started accepting Ultracoin! They really do seem like a rock solid service. Only 99¢ a month for hosting or $20.00 for life. Honestly deals like this are amazing. Great deals, great service, and the best part is, you can pay in Ultracoin! What could be better than that? Give them a click and if you need webhosting consider patronizing them!

I did have 14.4 on there in the past before I downgraded my drivers to 3.12. Perhaps that has something to do with it? I used Graphic Uninstaller Utility to remove the old drivers but perhaps it left something behind like the file you are talking about?

I remember one trick but not sure if it will pertain to you or to yacminer but give it a try. This works with cgminer also. Uninstall the yacminer and re-install it. If you tried to run yacminer at any time while using the 14.4 drivers you will have problems. I think the first time the miner runs it creates some internal reference file based on the driver and uses that as a reference every time you start it again so if you ran it with 14.4 and then downgraded  to 13.xx it is still using some reference file based on 14.4. Also if you mine x11 occasionaly you do not need to upgrade drivers for the x11mod if you use the LTCRabbit version. It works fine on 13.xx drivers and still gives increase hashrate but for me I have to reboot miners completely if I switch from x11 to yacminer or some gpu just go dead or wont start. reboot and everything awesome again.

@Thirty Bird, According to DXDiag I am running version 13.251.0.0. I did indeed install the AMD driver package 13-12_win7_win8_64_dd_ccc_whql. Perhaps what I downloaded was a later version by the same name?

Then I've got nothing for you.  Try deleting your .bin files, try lowering -R to see if you get any accepted.... At that BS and LG, your -R is spot on and you shouldn't have HW errors, so it's likely external to the miner.  If you ever had 14.X on there, yaybe you've got a newer OCL compiler from there left behind.

I certainly don't think so, I think it depends on who you ask, just look at Bitcoin for example. It just got accepted at Newegg.com, that's huge. You can do a lot with Bitcoin nowadays, and its a great example of private currency, decentralized and not in control of by government or the central bankers. Every other alternative currency is just an experiment of Bitcoin. I think their will be a few currencies that will be accepted like Bitcoin. Litecoin is one of them. Doge coin will have a large niche, but it will never be accepter in the mainstream business world due to the name. Other coins will have other uses, some will be for certain cities, states, industries, communities and perhaps even organizations. To say that crypto is a pyramid scheme doesn't even make any sense. It is a beautiful, evolving, beast. And I chose Ultracoin to be the coin I wanted to support. Heck, as far as money goes I have friends that make hundreds of dollars a day just day trading. Its not a fad just because you don't see it on every headline. But, for those in the know with their ears to the ground, crypto is waking headways. Making money more realistically? You mean like stocks and bonds? Or other guarantees? Let me spell it out simply, we live on a flying rock hurtling through space trying to kill us. There are no guarantees of safety, 20 years ago stocks were the ultimate guarantee, so were houses, then the market crashed. College used to be a realistic guarantee, now most college graduates live at home with their parents. Keeping your cash in a bank used to be a safe guarantee, until the banks stole the cash and gave it to the politicians. There are no guarantees, crypto is the Wild Wild West, ultimate freedom, no guarantees. Crypto is honest with itself, and that's why I like it.

Crypto really is the Wild Wild West. Unfortunately, its hard to trust everybody, and regardless of what the situation is at the multi-pool that is a week of mining taken away. Still better than Central banking IMHO but with liberty comes danger. If we are to have our own crypto-currency we are more likely to have struggles with trust, and there is no FDIC or Federal Reserve to come and save us. Luckily enough, it was "only" a week, and it wasn't a massive loss. For some I understand the amount of electricity, hash-power and profit lost is significant. But like I said, with freedom comes danger, and that's what makes crypto so exciting for me. Perhaps the management team can host a new multi-pool... With that said there is no excuse for ehat happened. In the meantime I'm going to tweet out to the remaining miners and warn them to take their miners off of the multi-pool and to start mining directly.

no crypto is a a dead end pyramid scheme pipe-dream full of scammers and runners which is why in the end .. it will likely fade away .. kind like pog's did when i was a kid.

I put like many time and effort into crypto's for months and months until finally just realizing i was wasting alot of time - effort and power/money on a truly unfruitious endeavor.

people cant seem to realize that if 90+% of the supporters of these crypto coins gets totally bent over/ screwed that they arent going to continue to reinvest into it only to loose even more money/savings or time when they could be focusing that money/time effort on making money in a more realistic way.

I see intrest in cryptos just dwindling more and more since December.

its not even a buz topic anymore really.

To all about the Multipool.

We just get today an message of the administrator of the multipool, Hayden,
from his message we can read he is not able to manage the multipool for longtime.

Please read the message below from Hayden ;

"....Hi All, Sorry about the delayed contact. The Army has just called me and I am now on an Aeroplane and will not be returning home for a few months. Sorry about this, it was unplanned. I will not be able to administer the multipool at all anymore. If you leave a message here I will try to get back to it when I get time but time in the army just doesnt exist...."


This means that i advice everybody to stop directly mining at the multipool and start mining at our UTC POOLS or even at NITRO2.

Remember in this how important it is to spread the hash among the pools !!!!

If we have more info we let you now a.s.a.p. !




This is probably the lamest excuse I have seen ever.
The guy is just laughing at people here.


One week of mining. Gone. Well done chaps... I am very patient and understanding but this is very bad. How could I ever recommend mining this coin to anyone? Stability is key, consistency is key and openness is key. Do we have any of those right now? I hope we can all together turn this around.

Is this the new all time low? I cant believe ppl are dumping at this price..

Why, exactly, is it so hard to believe? The multipool just abruptly goes offline, with a week's worth of payouts delayed months, or more likely, stolen by the admin. I'd be dumping right now too, if I had anymore UTC left to liquidate; divested all my holdings yesterday because of my disgust over the multipool.

Miners are the coin, no pools, no miners, no coin.  This is the biggest priority atm, restoring mining confidence.  Pools are screwing UTC, people have been screwed by a pool, not by the management.  This'll be the 3rd time of asking, anyone able to setup or have any script ready to roll to setup a p2p node?
