I have to agree. Also some of its supporters (bag holders?) are almost cult-like. It's amusing when it is a scifi coin like Offerings, but for megacoin it seems all too real, which is probably turning off a lot of people. Then you have all these animated gifs, which are not only tiresome but  reek of teenage tumblrshits. If you want your coin taken seriously, the community needs to clean up its image.

Three weeks ago you were self-proclaimed new to cryptos and now you're telling us how to act..

i checked twitter and facebook,  /megacoin  is gone in both cases
neither are pretending to be mec which is a plus
i don't personally think much of facebook, actually hate it
also facebook.com/bitcoin only has 37 likes llol, although not official site I don't think, looks to joe public like it is
so fb has no relevance to btc success and doubt it would to mec too tbh

twitter would have been nice though to be run by one of the main guys here


anyone got any viral marketing ideas? mec is that good , a diamond in the rough of coins
ideas?

I love MEC, I think it may be the BitCoin 2.0 we have been waiting for and would love to see it grow in use because has anyone checked how large the BTC blockchain is lately..... 12.6 GIGABYTES  TOO LARGE to be carried on a PHONE AS opposed to MEgaCoin's only 125Kb, Yes MEC is much younger blockchain but still I think that some sort of thought went into this coin to avoid a huge blockchain (some how - don't know how yet)  making this Coin fit Aristotle's money requirement for Portability BETTER than BTC. 

My suggestion, get our friends EVERYWHERE in South America, Africa, China, India and Asia interested in BTC first as a concept, then introduce alternate coins that follow the same ideas with alternative technical solutions as ways to spend (or transport) BTC in alternate ways.  I am trying to get my family and friend to put JUST 10% of their long term savings into BTC as a risk hedge against fiat currency devaluation but it is still a HARD sell to people who have not read the book "Rethinking Money" by bernard Leitier Rethinking Money

PS. If you find my info/contrib useful, do me a fav and give me a trust rating, as some asshole Neg'd me for commenting on his shitty acoustic engineering in trying to come up with a "Sound of Bitcoin" ... I DARED mention the ROCKING deposit sound of MEGACOIN... Oops...

Never compromise your standards!

Some of us have given hints about what's coming, but there is no point in spilling the beans before it's time!


Why is it that "some of us" somehow know more than the rest of the community?  I've read every post on both forums and the "hints" do not reveal anything. It seems like there is some inner circle of people but they only post hype and innuendo. If people know something and want to hype the coin, just says what it is, only providing hype and no substance hurts the coin, makes it look like GLD forum.

Telling people that services are actively being worked on is not hype - it is news / information.

Services take time to develop.

If those services that were announced never get released, then possibly, it was hype. But I am pretty confident most of the recent announcements surrounding up and coming services for Megacoin will prove to be true. So please be patient and you will see.  Wink




I nominate ethought as a prime example of the Megacoin community delivering more than the hype could possibly give him credit!

well at no point did i hate on Megacoin at all, i simply said i have a decent size investment in it and would like to contribute to the development effort, but I am discouraged by the little communication and team involvement by Kimoto.

There is no public GitHub for the source, but the source is available from the SourceForge page: http://sourceforge.net/projects/megacoin/files/megacoin-0.8.996-source.zip/download

If you would like to contribute to Megacoin in anyway, please do so Smiley Post your code snippets here or in a PM to Kimoto himself.  The Doctor has been known to respond.  Is this as easy as a simple pull request on GitHub? No, but it is a start.  Kimoto is not always the most timely, but he has delivered in every way up until this point Smiley

To those that talked about a secret club of Megacoin insiders: no.  There are several members within the community actively working on projects that have yet to be announced.  For example, darkproton drops in every once in awhile to tease a project he is working on and ethought is working on a payment processor.  Alienwalkerx is placing ads all over the internet, including Hazard's blog (I'm sure he appreciates the support Wink ), MobGod was working out the specifications to a physical coin, and vtr99 is trying to get jackets ordered.  The Megacoin community welcomes all.  So take a seat, chat a little, and post a few gifs Smiley

Speaking of jackets, I wouldn't be opposed to the higher quality version, but I am a go for either one.



I haven't been very vocal about it since we are at the mercy of our busy developer, but there is also a store in the works. It was actually in development before Megacoin came along, but now we plan to make MΣC the preferred currency (fiat currency will not be accepted). With luck, we hope to have a concrete announcement in 5 or 6 weeks.

I believe we are ready to order the jackets, we just need to make sure everyone is good with the higher quality (more expensive) version. We also need to work out the logistics of getting them ordered, and shipped to everyone.

When you're on the winning side, sore losers are pretty entertaining. This is easily the most hate I've ever seen for a successful currency. People can't stand the fact that we're having a good time while things just keep getting better for Megacoin and worse for almost everything else.

4th highest average hash rate among Scrypt coins (and has remained there pretty consistently since the latest update) behind only LTC, FTC, and NVC. Sure, there was a recent price correction...but beyond a few spikes and one dip a while back (which I took full advantage of) it's about as stable as it gets in that department. During the altcoin war zone yesterday, which saw even high market cap currencies drop 25% or more in USD value (and even further vs BTC), Megacoin actually gained about 7% in USD value and even held pretty steady vs BTC, despite massive altcoin dumps and BTC buys throughout the day. I'll admit I even dumped about 20k MΣC...only because I wanted to make a small LTC play when it was at 0.012 and MΣC was holding steady. I'll be buying them all back and more, soon.

If envious people gave credit where credit is due, what excuse would they have for not having accomplished more in their life? They see every success of someone else as an indictment of their own inadequacy and are usually so busy beating themselves up that they don’t care to congratulate anyone else. In this case, they aren't even too late -- right now is still a great time to get involved in Megacoin; it's their own stubbornness that will result in the missed opportunity. The negative people in this thread no longer have anything left to go on...but they lack the ability to recognize the opportunity and would prefer to dedicate their energy to a negative purpose. It is easier to tear down than to build up...and the fact that we're having fun simply enrages them.

Is Megacoin a risk? Of course it is -- all altcoins are. At this stage, however, it represents the best risk/reward ratio out there, in my opinion. I was skeptical at one point too (I'm sure there are posts right here in this thread demonstrating that) but I did my due diligence and realized what a smart play it is. This is a fun group in here -- obviously it's easier to be positive and enjoy life when we're all in such a rosy situation, but I completely fail to understand the benefit of being an asshole for absolutely no reason.

Jealousy is a Stinky Cologne.
Didn't read this reply before posting.
 
+1 excellent post.
