Topic: [ANN] [MINT] Mintcoin (POS / 5%) [NO ICO] [Fair distro, community maintained] - page 773. (Read 1369788 times)

To answer this question publicly, they are exactly of the kind of service we can rally to get on board with us and accept MINT.

Any more suggestions are welcome.

Can I ask about status of my proposal from 2 weeks ago about cooperation with Linux Mint devs to receive donations ? Now they are receiving in BTC but it could be nice to have mints.

@Bulldog_Duke, good news for the .com (pm sent).

Main Development Updates:

Merchant Social Lobby

Building is well underway for a website that is largely based on kickstarter. We will select a number of merchants and you'll be able to vote with your MINT to purchase products from the merchants website. Once we have a certain number of MINT voters, we will present the information to the merchant and say something along the lines of; right now there are x amount of people willing to spend x amount of Mintcoin on your products / services - this presents x value in $, do you want this business?


Mintcoin Website

SEO optimisations and search engine submissions are being made to increase organic traffic. Banners for advertising are also being designed.
Cloudfare was introduced yesterday with the aim to improve loading times and it seems to be doing the job.

Protocol

Testnet has been built (new genesis block for this purpose) and we are putting the PoS through it's paces. We are trying to stay one step ahead and diagnose / fix bugs before they happen!

Wallets

Newly designed wallet is on it's way. There are extra features being included in the wallet itself such as hyperlinks to the main website or forums. We will add as much cools stuff to the wallet as we can, one step at a time.

Automint

This is also in development. The idea is a kind of wrapper for minting with the wallet. Its purpose is to let you mint occasionally without the hassle of -under Windows- open a dos prompt, going to exe folder, type in the unlock command+passphrase to unlock wallet. I know you can just open the console in the wallet, but you still have to type in the command and passphrase. The goal is: AutoMint=no hassle. You launch it, indicate path to wallet and type in your passphrase only once at the first launch, then it is stored encrypted and no longer have to type it in. Option to set an unlock time, then autoclose.


All these things and many more are being worked on right now.

You assume too much and speak of what you do not know.
Trying to justify your decision by making example like of utube? Really?
Yes, Google made a huge mistake by not getting utube.com. Thats why they are worth "only" over 400B USD.
There are thousands of companies who ride on the glory of Google. Comparing MINT to Google is like comparing Sun Tzu to You.

Having said that. I agree that having .com domain is better than not having .com domain. Cant argue with that.
 

Bulldog_Duke

You're completely right about controlling the .com domain. Just wanted to add another thanks to the pile.

BTW, for anyone remotely interested, I moved most of my rigs to mine blackcoin about 12 hours ago.  The coin will be 100% mined in less than a week so I figured I may as well grab some rather than wish I had.  Not promoting the coin at all here.....just letting you know.  Also. mining at greekpool.   All smooth with good payouts.  After 24 hours, back to 100% mint if difficulty is not prohibitive.  https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-blacknet-ibo-for-blackcoin-new-code-pos-no-ico-469640

LOL - My Bad --  that part was meant for Kergekoin, not you/

I'm not such a reader

I have only good things to say about Bulldog Duke!

Well, I do not design sites at all.  I own 4 business that all have ecomerce sites.  I have a team in India do them for me.  However, I have no plans to build this domain.  It was bought for a few reasons:

1.  To control it.
2.  Use it for benificial reasons.

I know the trolls are out and have zero clue.  But contolling the flow of information that could be posted to the .com and preventing negative media is more valuable than owning it.  To the clueless troll, here is a little history lesson.  When YouTube came on the seen, people who only heard the name were going to www.utube.com and it was a pipe manufacturing company.    http://www.utube.com  They immediatle started getting 100's of thousand accidental hits a day and quicly started selling ads and moved the real business to another site.  Look at the site now!  The pipe company has their banner at top but they are printing money becasue YouTube was stupid in the name choice and did not do their homework upfront.  So, to the troll, I tell you again, go read "Think and Grow Rich" by Napolean Hill.  Also, you are playing checkers while I am playing chess.   When you are done with the Napolean Hill book, then read The Art of War ------- then come back and let's talk!

Great move   , i hope you know a bit of web design because we don't want to scare people away with ugly website's

Yes I agree. I first sold my Mintcoins at 40, but the price didn't really drop, so I bought them back at 39. I'm out of daytrading for now and in for holding.

Btw did anybody mint some coins already with POS?

 If you think that .com is worth even half a price, then you are dillusional. And if you think that .com is needed to gain more popularity -then you are the one who is narrow minded and cant think out of the box. Not me.
 

But hey, that was your money. GL.

Can someone just clarify for me something.

Can I actually encrypt my wallet? or does it completely rule me out of any interest payments in the future?

Or does it just mean that i have to unlock my wallet for the interest calculations to start rolling?

The FAQ is a little vague..

Cheers

Good job buying the domain.We all appreciate it and it's a good addition.We are here as a community to go up.

Price was no where near 6500.  I have bought many domains for sale over the years and 50% is what they HOPE to get.  I was 100% certain that someone would have something negative to say.   I did not ask for your opinion.   Also, it is not the modern young people that it was bought to cater too.  You are living in your own microcosm and probably have zero busienss accumen.   You think small.  You should read the book by Napolean Hill titled "Think and Grow Rich."   Stay off the boards and read that then come back and have a discussion.

Besides, I probably bought it with day trade profits from people like you panic selling into my buy and sell orders.  

Agree ^^^

You can't buy all domains, .com, .net, .org, etc etc, get anyone of the domain is good enough, no need to waste time and money there.

Just look at this forum (with .org). The .com is some other site, does this direct you to that site?

.com domain was extremely bad investment in my opinion. For 6500 USD you could have done a whole lot more than this for MINT.
.. if that was indeed the price you paid.

Anyway, modern young people dont give a rats ass if domain is .com or .cc or whatever. Its extremely overrated to have .com.
