I've never mentioned that coin specifically so I don't know what you are saying that in reference to.

My concern is how is MINT going to compete with BTC, not a mintclone.

In that regard I have to say that the ability to mine on a regular computer, and maybe an android device before too long, is the main selling point.

You can do it on a laptop or mini device and it doesn't waste a ton of energy. Perfect for the "Whole Foods" crowd.

That is a reasonable target demographic if you are going for mass adoption.

Thanks for this. I was thinking of another marketing campaign. This would be another one to work with. I can expect a strong response with this campaign. I just came up with a great slogan as well, really snaps into the mind and won't leave.

This is important because VOS is one of the only regulated exchanges out there.

Critical point, MINT is more of a marketable commodity than most other coins. It has a consumer friendly "green" image instead of that of a subcultural icon that the public views somewhat suspiciously. Inclusion onto regulated venues such as VoS will help in this regard.

MINT is not targeting a small subset of the population who mainly are motivated by ideological beliefs, hacking etc but is for everyone!

Easy to use, saves energy and you get to help mint new coins on a regular computer and maybe someday your android device. That's MINT.


That's all very nice and all, but why the badmouthing of BC?

It's not BC or Mint, there are many PoS coins, many that trade
above both coins. So a 20% PoS rate is not the highest and so
if people are looking for other PoS coins, there are many that
give a higher interest rate than Mint.

Which is why I asked about the constant posts badmouthing of BC
because it gives you 20% and has more merchants.

How many supporters of Mint have purchased from one of the
merchants yet?

If the 20% is the main selling point, why not also post about
the other PoS coins with higher % rates, when shit is posted
about BC?

"specific distribution in mind" but we're are talking about the
interest rate? are we not?

Yes, the marketing aspect is very tasty for MINT. It will be fun to advertise MINT.

I would like to see Mintcoin on VirtEx (http://www.cavirtex.com), it's the biggest and oldest fiat/BTC/LTC exchange in Canada. They only added LTC recently.

I didn't ask how it was funded, I said what's the difference in regard to
the buy pressure you posted about BC? Same as question 2, see answer.

I'm sure it was the same idea after seeing BC planned/setup one. To help
with buy pressure! Yep, I never said it was a bad idea, but an independent pool operator is going to buy at the best market price. So we don't have quite the same advantage.

And the other PoS coins I mentioned, many have a higher interest rate
than Mint! Uhh, which one?

So what's the reason people would jump from BC for Mint instead of
looking at other PoS coins? Answered many times, look up.

You were specific in stating BC to Mint, not other coins. So I'm curious
to know why you think it's either BC or Mint. BC is the only Mintclone still alive. It cannot be mined any longer, and there is no reason for it to have value. 74 million coins that are better than btc because....?? 


Aurora is on Vault of Satoshi , I think you were saying something about
that coin the other day too!  Roll Eyes Yep, I highly doubt Auracoin will be used by the population of Iceland. Still it was an original idea and time will tell. What's your point?

MINT has a minting schedule that is designed with a specific distribution in mind. Just spurting out coins is no more of a solution than severely restricting the supply rate is.

You need a distribution that is a little more planned out than that.

Actually, it is one coin against another. Sorry to break that to naive people. 3 clones dead, 1 to go. If I'm on the board and see blackcoin trolls, they shall not pass.

Fine. Even if I am naive, still you are not gaining something by lying to a trolling question. The real investors want to see clarity, honesty and potential. Not kids saying "mine is bigger than yours" ...


Right now, I could place a 1 BTC Buy at 5555 satoshi and move the price up by 100 satoshi. FACT.

I'm sorry, but I am not lying. Blackcoin has an official multipool whose sole existence is to put buy pressure on the coin. It say so on their website. I understand some people hold both coins and would like to see them both prosper. Unfortunately that isn't how any marketplace works. Every coin out there is competing against the other, just like facebook and myspace, or Apple vs Samsung, etc..

This is the way capitalism works.


So what's the multipool for Mint doing then?


Mint's multipool was funded by the community and is not official. It would take a 9 BTC buy just to move the price of Mint 1 satoshi. To answer your other question of why would people buy Mint instead of other coins?

Because it pay's 20% annual interest and a person can gain coins without mining equipment. Mint community members are very focused on building long term infrastructure. We also have many merchants, and will be added to Vault of Satoshi in April. This is important because VOS is one of the only regulated exchanges out there.

The Android wallet represents an open field run through a wide open hole in the other teams line. If we get it MINT will become top dog.

The thing holding BTC back from mass adoption is specialized equipment. Imagine if anyone can MINT on their android device. Mass adoption!!!!

What's it going to take to get this initiative going?

That's exactly why we need to keep working on those features that objectively increase fundamental value, such as new exchanges, merchants, the android wallet, marketing, and charity funds.

There is a window of opportunity currently open for one alt coin to become a legitimate competitor with BTC and be the first crypto to acheive mass adoption. I want to see that be MINT.

I think the energy saving PoS minting process that allows anyone with a regular computer to mint coins makes MINT a good candidate to take this spot. When we have the revolutionary PoS android wallet that will put us over the top. There is no other serious competition really. BTC is vastly over valued and technically irrelevant already because of the specialized equipment necessary and the energy waste.

Yes, It's true. You can artificial pump a price...
But that will get you killed in the long term!

We will reach the high satoshi by slowly building a strong platform. Think months, years...

I'd rather invest in a very undervalued coin, than a coin that keeps its price artificial high.

down 15%, is this ever going to break 20 again?

The multi pool blackcoin uses buys at a price way above market to artificially increase the price. This tricks people into putting money back into blackcoin. Once people realize blackcoin is a scam clonecoin, they'll put all that money into Mint, and we'll go far above 20.

I hope that answers your question.

You really need to stop with the bullshit, every day you badmouth BC.

And why would people jump from BC to Mint? there are many other PoS coins...
HoboNickels, TEK, PeerCoin, PhilosopherStone, CacheCoin, UltraCoin and more!

And what do you do, along with a few others in this thread. Constantly post
that Mint is going to 100-500 sat or more, it hasn't even got back to the height
when it was first released. But still you keep hyping it up, come back to earth
bud. You're living in cloud-cuckoo land!




Thing I hate about blackcoin is that they stole the source of the original multipool and ripped his name out of it according to original dev who told me... Not good.

Why hasn't the original dev posted in the BC thread? if someone stole my code
I'd be posting in there every day!

Well, they like to steal things. They also like to make up fairy tales to trick innocent investors.

One poster(i won't condem the entire community)has some gullible people believing they will have a Visa\Mastercard with blackcoin's name on it.

Bitcoin, a coin worth billions has tried and failed to do this, large credit cards would not allow. Why would a large credit card company do something to draw attention to a competing payment system?
