Yes, and they kicked me from IRC cause they didn't like what i was saying. Gives me little hope when few people were all saying same things and get quited in IRC.
You were kicked out of the IRC by CrazyLoaf because you were saying the same thing over and over (still are) and the final straw came when you said the following:
< cryptodaknight>.....let me tell my investment group that holds about 200k cloak collectively,
we can all dump on you at once thenWell that is truth and it was cause crazyloaf and others were being very rude, go look and see, then started a fight. I was not saying same thing over and overwith, others also agreed with me, and your distorting the truth there. Many were saying same thing, where is the marketing. This half truth, even crazyloaf said he did not read all that happened before he came in. So he was biased from get go by a few fanboys which will say rararara nomatter what.
This is pointless, we all are on same team trying to get coin value up, but some are doing same thing i've seen in so many coins that just wait attitude, this coin is new, blah blah blah. Most those coins died or are much lower.
Point being dagger, if you would have explained to people, when prices were tanking that marketing is coming, I am willing to be your selloff would not have happened.
As for those saying we don't want a pump and dump, agreed, but it's naive thinking. PnD will happen to any coin that is successful. You won't be able to avoid it, to some degree it will happen. But most PnD of good coins remain higher than before the PnD.
If this coin has more to offer than PnD people will eventually hold and buy more after dust settles and everyone will know about cloak cause it got attention. Anyways, I guess bringing up obvious things to you is where i get attacked, so be it, but many have money on line and like it or not want to know what next moves are with marketing once new PoSA are out, not on 4th of July weekend when people are not paying attention.
Please stop telling us how to do our jobs when we can see that your logic is flawed.
We have an unfinished product, therefore marketing is not happening at this stage.
Other than dev videos on youtube, twitter posts and this forum no we are not marketing.
Think about the following and realise what you are saying.
CLOAK is barely 3 weeks old: in that time we built an anon system, the first of it's kind... using exchanges then deaddrop wallets and listening servers... it is not using CoinJoin which may be about to be exposed for complete ineffectiveness... our anon system is working right now in CloakSend 1.1 however due to the nature of it... it is centralized and not entirely trustless.
So, that being a concern we are constantly listening to the market and we release a preliminary whitepaper for CloakSend 2.0 featuring a truly p2p decentralized anon system working on an entirely trustless way.
We heard that people wanted TOR in their wallet... So we added it in the last update.
Now to say we need to up our marketing efforts whilst we are EXTREMLY busy with getting this coin into shape, when we are this young and have already done so much is at times quite insulting. Having to write posts like this is also counter productive.
Think about what you are saying and bare in mind the following.
Did darkcoin become successful in 3 weeks?
No, it took about 3 months.
Did Vericoin blow up in 3 weeks?
No, it took about 7 to get going, they were plagued with bugs when they went foll PoS.
Did monero take off in 3 weeks?
No, it took a couple of months at least.
Did Bytecoin take of straight away?
No.
Infact, name a coin that got massive success in 3 weeks.
You seem to claim that a successful coin is made from "marketing".
What happened when Doge pulled the biggest altcoin marketing feat to date: sponsoring a nascar (racecar)... Did that actually help and raise the value of that coin?
Does the fact that Wankcoin (yes that's what it's called) is on Pornhub, mean it instantly has acquired massive value? By your logic it would.
Please demonstrate some effective marketing campaigns, the budget and the result rather than just telling us to drop some dev work and concentrate on marketing.
