What worries me is all the copy clones coming to MintPal... Even if they are just shit coins, people still 'invest' a lot of BTC in them and there just isn't an unlimited supply of $/BTC going into alts. When this supply is diversified too much no one will come out on top. I find it sad to see that the exchange that helped BC to become huge and made a shitload of money of BC keeps adding all these BC-clones/competitors. Last week was insane: AC, WC, NOBL, COMM, and CINNI.... The more of these clone-alts 'steal' volume away the harder it gets for BC (or any other alt) to grow.... these clones become dead weight. With too many people in the shower, no one gets wet.
Although I do agree with some that some of the things IconicExpert has posted here lately may be a little bit aggressive.. but he is right in the fact that we are not running a lemonade stand here. BC needs to become the Blackhole again and suck in all those clone-coins as well. Not by extortion, extreme market manipulation, or other criminal-type of actions but by clever innovation or by setting up more alliances with other coins that either have strong community or clever innovation that we could adapt like e.g. DRK. On top of that we really depend on all the great things the devs have done for us so far and hope they keep doing that.
We need to focus on that again. What will happen in May? Something big is coming? What is it? Coinkite is great! Ok, so you can pay to get on Coinkite, but so far BC is the only one that actually has been accepted.
Let's be positive and positive-aggressive again.
YEA! That's a great way of looking at it. BlackCoin is the only coin added to CoinKite. A sketchy as hell startup that allows coin Devs to buy they're way onto their exchange and boost their coins value only to dump later after the price shoots up.
"Put your money where your mouth is". I DARE you to deposit money into Coinkite. No wonder the other big alt coins avoided it and didn't even try to get on.
I could personally get Whitecoin Listed just by myself. I've got the coins. But why would I. I wouldn't want WC associated with a company like that.
