3) Email/Tweet to Mintpal Support/@MintPalExchange asking for BC to be paired with other top altcoins, like DOGE. In light of Cryptsy's recent issues, and seeing as Mintpal has always been Blackpal to us, providing more trading pairs with BC/Altcoin would allow more BlackCoin-focused traders and miners to process more of their activity through Mintpal, which has shown to have better support, uptime, and service to the BlackCoin community - not to mention lower fees. It's a win for all sides if this happens. Let's make it so![/size]
And here's a fantastic reason for ALL exchanges to add BC pairs from user

Dear Support,
THIS COIN IS AN ARBITRAGE TRADERS DREAM!!! I frequently trade on Mintpal, Cryptsty, BTC-E, BTER, Poloniex, and Bittrex day trading by taking advantage of the disparity in alt coin pricing on each exchange. I can tell you first hand that this is currently a nightmare with both Bitcoin and Litecoin and generally the most stressful 20-40 minutes ever trying to get BTC from a wallet onto an exchange or from one exchange to the another to attempt to capitalize on the opportunity. Often times due to the confirmation times delaying the availability of my BTC I miss out on a lot of trade opportunities that I otherwise would have taken and find myself only making 1 big trade for fear of missing out on the price and losing my current buying power.
Recently I have been getting into Blackcoin instead of BTC and have realized how advantageous it is as a trader in utilizing arbitrage opportunities between markets thanks to the super fast 10 second confirm times. in the trading world speed = $, and a lot of it. Read Michael Lewis' newest book Flash Boys if you don't believe me.
By offering alt trading pairs with Blackcoin you allow for much more trade volume due to the nature of its confirmation speed and how quickly it is being adopted by traders. faster confirmation times equates to more possible trading opportunities for traders which results in more trades and commission for your site.
Please I strongly urge you to start offering alt/Blackcoin parings on your exchange beginning immediately.

Writing your own email is best and this is a big hook to put into it.
