What would happen if a active site with 200k registered users added blackcoin? Smiley

*thumbs*



what is the dev plan?

There is a new Blackcoin client to be released in June with faster transaction times, better syncing to the network and the basics for smart contracts on the blockchain.
There is also Nighttrader in development by the Black Halo guy, which supposed to be a decentralized exchange using blockchain technology.

On a sidenote.. I am happy Rat got involved.

I read a notice in january of blackcoin, so there is a developer joshua bouw we wanted to get back involved.
Good.

Not! The only thing he does is talk about memories talking about the good old days. And showing pictures.

BLK don't need an ICO, but I would invest if
1) Rat does his thing. He is the boss!
2) Janko handles the POS
3) Joshua is out. He probably will make a scene about it on slack. Killing his project but let's face it. 6 months. There is no project. And if there is a project it's probably about him again showing pictures about the good old days


BLK won't do an ICO. I'm not sure what project you are talking about. I just always communicate and try to get things going.

Edit: FURTHER. Nobody is paying me to do anything. I'm free to do what I like. Yes, I have a personal project in the works. There was no project, there was a plan to get Blackcoin back on track. Tt has been reworked over and over again and what you see today with Janko and everything else is a product of it. If you haven't forgotten that this is an open source project, not a company.
Don't waste your time. Look at last posts of all those accounts. Shill accounts which woke up after years.

I wanna see the coin going forward if anything.

I'm working on something as well.

I love and believe blackcoin(blk) and it's cool name.
I think rat4 is one of the best dev and his work is continued and effective and Forward-looking.
I think there needn't some invalid and stupid change of this great coin. 
+1
Name is good.
All of a sudden this became main thing to re-brand a well established coin? If you can send donation for this project then this certainly can help, everything else is speculative and will consume time and resources, but no insurance that this is it. DASH - DARK has good PR team and they invests lot in it.

blk price:

to make things clear the price you see right now is not reflected by any progress made with blackcoin project, it's just that hype that carried all markets around, but just so you know the real big players still didn't invest in blk yet, that's why its not 100m market.

You have to understand that the only danger for it right now is the delisting from polo, and if it's coming for blk, it will kill it, definitely.

If you plan to do anything with the project just do it asap cause a delisting is coming, and I guess you have about a month to make things happen here.

I am voting for rebranding as well. the new name will create a different approach to blk atmosphere, (something more friendly will be needed here).

An example (not dash, blk won't be dash), $NAV, started as summercoin and changed its name to navajo than only nav. It's not a big market but this one managed to attract some big players, this one I could easy believe 100m market end of this year.

blk community is bigger and the tech here is better, the potential is great, please make things right and do it asap.

Good luck to all

I do not see the problem with the current name so I would ask for a vote prior to any change.

BlackCoin has had the same name since it started in 2014. If it changed nobody would know it's the same coin. It would be a huge mistake to change its name.

How would that be?
Blackcoin has been a coin of stability and innovation. By far the most cloned coin. I wouldn't mind if they become closed source.
So many projects P&D on BLK infrastructure.

In concerns to branding: I agree. I have played with the name Onyx and Carbon and like both. They also go with the theme and have none of the -coin in it. We as a community could make design and branding concepts or pitch in to hire a professional branding company and we all vote on which designs we like the most.

Of course, that is if we go that route.

(In regards to if we don't hear from the devs, I guess I'm one of the strongest in the Blackcoin sphere in terms of branding since I have access to everything to make it possible.)

If the community wants it, it will be done. I will also ensure to be the one to enforce it.
Onyx is a good name, but, iirc there was a Onyx coin long time ago and it turned out to be a scam coin.
"Carbon" imo isn't a good choice. "Carbon emissions", "Carbon copy", etc.

Rebrand shouldn't have to do anything with the "black" ideology. Just my humble opinion, though.

Maybe we could raise a bounty for the best name? I'm willing to chip 136.84274725 BLK (so I round up my holdings ;p).

Let's make a public vote.


EDIT:
Here's a tool you could use to get some ideas:

The dev IS around ... he checked in today as a matter of fact, so lets dispel that misnomer. That what Profile pages are for. He does not HAVE to speak everyday. The are +1600 pages, he is not required to show on every one of them.

I do not see the problem with the current name so I would ask for a vote prior to any change. The members that visit Bitcointalk are only a small fraction of the coin holders and not practically representative of the whole. The community is spread across many mediums, IRC & Slack & Bitcointalk to name only a few.

I do not think that we should be holding Dash's change as a sole example of "proof it works". More was involved than JUST a name change, we have to keep that in mind.

No Bounty should be used! That brings greedy people and often only OneTimers. If you want suggestions it should be done by those that care about THE coin, not just by those that care about COINS (do you see my meaning?)

We have always been the Dark horse in the crypto-game, and would like to see some reasoning as to why someone would *not* this coin for any practical purpose (ie the statement "Realistically, no one is going to use a platform called Blackcoin for child support payments." )

A name that relates to it as a passive income source (5% interest, 1% inflation), and it's energy efficiency/environmental friendliness (can be mined on a Raspberry Pi), would be nice.

I think Carbon sounds cool though.
