Nice to see you again good sir! Let me know when you are ready to jump back on the team. We have some really great things coming up and could use your help.
Regarding changing the coin -
We need to have this conversation and address investor issues - whether it be through education such as posting a crypto currency - economics learning center, social campaigns or maybe even re-evaluating the logic of the coin to maintain the current PoS rates but reflect adaptation to market changes.
I am not a financial expert nor a language programmer. The survey numbers represented mindsets - not actual numbers - I am calculating the communities overall feelings towards the current coin.
https://www.surveymonkey.com/results/SM-PPQNVHF8/Here are the survey results - thank you everyone for participating.
Everything seems to support the coin except for two areas - the 70,000,000,000 and maintaining the coin after that number has been reached.
The community is saying I love this! but I am afraid that there will be too many of them and I will lose my investment.
Now it is our job to figure out how we are going to improve on this area of perception and if needed modifications.
Hello all. I'm stepping out of my stealth mode to give my 2Mintcoin opinion on this.
The 70 billion cap will not be reached for at least
40 years I'll most likely be dead by then, so it has never been a problem with me.
The current interest scheme is very reasonable and is the main reason I got into Mintcoin in the first place.
Leave it the way it is.The
BIGGEST problem Mintcoin has always had, was the
700 MILLION Mintcoin Premine. This is the main reason the coin never took off. I truly believe that the Dev was always to tired and never wanted to improve the coin, because he was so busy trading 700 MILLION coins at 50 some exchanges. I can just imagine how much time and effort it took to accomplish that feat.
The most important thing to do with Mintcoin, is to start DEVELOPING features for the coin. Upgrade the wallet would be the first thing. I've said it before, and I'm going to say it again....
HAVE A LOOK AT SILKCOINS WALLET.....Get the Android Wallet into use. This has gone on long enough. If Paspi can't complete it, find someone who can....simple as that...
I've also said it before, and again I'm going to say it again... Check into having Mintcoin included into
http://keepod.org/ and have each one of their USB devices have 10,000 Mintcoins to start them off with. (This does need the Android Wallet)
All the other things you guys are talking about will require a
HARD FORK and that is a VERY VERY VERY bad thing to do. Look at Saturncoin...they hard forked and reduced the total supply of coins, then exchanged 1000 old Saturncoins for 1 new Sat2 coin....that didn't work out to well for them did it?
Put together some sort of "Media Release" send it to ALL the big crypto news sites, explaining EXACTLY what happened with the original dev, and what is taking place now. Explain that the community is coming together (and has actually grown) since the dev left, and that you are developing all these new features for the coin.
I personally put a lot of time into Mintcoin from the beginning, and after reading a PM from the original dev (cryptomommy knows of this) I pretty much didn't want to be involved with him any longer, so I went into stealth mode. There was discussions months ago about having the community take over the coin (sort of a coup d etat) at that time I asked the people involved to hold off until I talked to the dev about things...at that time he was open to making changes, but he never really did anything, so the coup d etat was somewhat called off. Looking back (hindsight of course) I should have kept my mouth shut.
I still have reservations about a few things, but I do believe cryptomommy is doing a standup job. Everyone should really put some serious thought into the idea of changing the coin, and everyone should have a look at the Silkcoin wallet as well as the Keepod site.
Thanks for your time...back to stealth mode...
