It means they didn't take the money and run as skeptics expected to happen after the pre-sale. That jumping squirrel is getting around though. they're using that animation to advertise on various crypto sites.

why would they run when they can just give you a low effort fork of peercoin?  so much less stress don't you think?  plus if they produce a coin, they can sell even more of them.  I predict pumping and people on newcon forum chomping at the bit to buy more.

A Dart quote I see, interesting.

They have taken your money I suspect? No need to run then.
I've seen that tippy the squirrel ad, so irritating dont you think. So amateur.

No 2 week update forthcoming on nokoin forum?
No one has noticed, no one has asked, no one cares?

The NeuCoin cryptocurrency, MyNeuCoin and GetNeuCoin will launch between August 6th and August 13th.

And they don't have a set release date yet for a mobile wallet

Launch date is "estimation", so sometime after 13 Aug

nokoin not even working on mobile wallet.

GL with survey coin, if you ever get them, you clearly like a freebie.



didn't seem like an estimation. the update said August 6-13.

won't be surprised if there's a delay though as software
projects rarely finish on time.  but still, not launching by the
date promised won't help the nokoiners.

Shoreditch Sandrine,

"Our current estimation is that the NeuCoin cryptocurrency, MyNeuCoin and GetNeuCoin will launch between August 6th and August 13th."

Note, "Our current estimation"

So, who wll be such a cool memeber of BTT to present constructive overview of current situation of Neucoin, for visitors of thread to see?  Smiley


Better chip in

Jonalds answer was objective enough, but imo, was to restricted and did not catch the true flavour of this thread.
I cannot present an overview myself as it would also have to miss out all the finesse of the last 6 months.

Dart post is objective also, but probably should be read in context of him being #1 fan.
When he talks of nokoin being tight lipped, it means nokoin really wont tell ya nothing.
Dart decided day 1 (Feb?) nokoin was for him, because of the impressive angel/investor list, and the promise of "utility" and mass adoption.
Getting in at day 1 must be quite exciting, imo.
I agree you should read nokoin forum. I find it hard to believe what I read there, but (some) others clearly do.

My opinion should be read in context of me being #1 sceptic.
The only way you'll get that overview, imo, is to read back here, nokoin forum, ect. It will require some hours.

BTC > etc
For the record, darteous is a moderator at nokoin forum and has according to himself invested $3k in it

They are a bit more tight lipped about the launch than expected. It is a high risk investment/high reward investment.
here is what primevalsoup, nocoin forum member and one of the biggest presale investors (40 btc) has to say
What makes me so interested in this coin is it's distribution model and deals in place for usage before launch.
Deals in place?! You mean the 3 websites that will take nokoin, 2 of which are owned by dank spyware-pig???
or you mean distributing to other crypto communities?? That didn't work out well https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.11732035

I'd suggest reading through the forum to make your own opinion about two of the coins team members Sandrine and Mark..
Read through it and realize what a sorry ass joke Mark is and why he is widely ridiculed.
he runs survey after survey, hoping it will teach him how to do his job, then refuses to pay out the promised coins to some of them by claiming their answers are garbage.
he bans (or threatens with ban) several nokoin forum users for reasons such as "harshing on my buzz, dude", alienating many potential adopters. Their forum is a ghost town and posts come mostly from mods and a few bagholders.
Tell me one real accomplishment of his thus far?? Only senior position ever held, in a small company, barely lasted 4 months

Sandrine apparently moved to London few months after presale and has an expensive property there. At her young age and never having held a well-paid position, it must mean she comes from a wealthy family right  Roll Eyes

Dank was part of a company that used a questionable loophole in the past.
I see you also started to employ the same misleading mumbo jumbo used by nokoin.
Anyone following this thread knows that Dank and 3 others were the founders and owners of the spyware company Direct Revenue. Besides dank spyware-pig, 3 other members of that company are part of nokoin as angel investors. There was no legal loophole, only security loopholes on users' web browsers which direct revenue exploited to illegally install their malware.

But according to the courts the company wasn't doing anything illegal
Wrong. The case was settled for $1.5M before it reached verdict. This is completely different from a not guilty verdict and by no means imply the court didn't think they were doing anything illegal. Settling a case is simply a way for the accused to pay for his mistake, yet avoiding to admit wrongdoing. No company pays $1.5M and accept crippling restrictions, which caused it to shut down few months later, if they can prove their innocence.

Look at the beginnings of many currencies, there's often some questionable happenings.
Questionable happenings along the lines of infecting millions of computers with spyware that the average user cannot uninstall, some of them wrapped in kiddie porn???
those currencies designed to scam people, any of them still thriving??

I do want someone business minded and smart enough to see opportunities, know when someone might be cheating them, and be successful, etc.
Are your parameters for success as low as the nokoin shill lorrav's?? https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.11667520
Spyware-pig might know when someone is cheating him, but do you know when spyware-pig is cheating you??

To summarize, less than a month left for launch and here is where it stands
Quote from: primevalsoup
You are joking right? Have you even looked at these sites? You are trying to tell me that creating a silly animation of a squirrel jumping around and posting it on a web site demonstrates real progress/effort?

I'd suggest reading through the forum to make your own opinion about two of the coins team members Sandrine and Mark. Because it's really a matter of whether or not you trust the creators. If they are honest then this will likely become quite a valuable coin.

can't really say I agree.  honesty, while important in many areas of life and business, is no indication of a good strategy or market forces.  I could invest in my brother's restaurant, and even though he is honest, he could easily fail.

They are a bit more tight lipped about the launch than expected. It is a high risk investment/high reward investment. And honestly, given the option I'd still buy a bit more.

Jonald's overview is fairly objective, though he forgot to mention the founders, angel investors, and early investors coins which won't be going to the foundation. And he didn't explain the coins plans at all. You should read the wiki for idea of how they will develop it.  http://www.neucoin.org/en/wiki/

What makes me so interested in this coin is it's distribution model and deals in place for usage before launch. I'd argue other than BTC, coins that have been released so far have been failures in that they haven't secured any market outside of the crypto community. This coin is doing things differently.

Dank was part of a company that used a questionable loophole in the past. But according to the courts the company wasn't doing anything illegal. I don't necessarily see that as a bad thing.

Yes I do prefer everything be honest and fair but I do want someone business minded and smart enough to see opportunities, know when someone might be cheating them, and be successful, etc.

I'll try to be objective:

Neucoin had a presale, claiming to have raised $1M USD
and says they will launch between Aug 6-Aug 13th.
According to their strategy roadmap, .1 Billion coins are presold out of
a total 3 billion premine, with the remaining coins going to foundations
to develop and market the coin.

Those that participated in the premine are excited about Neucoin's
strategy to aggressively market Neucoin with their corporate
connections, marketing experience, and integration with video
games and music platforms.

Others who didn't participate are very skeptical for a variety
of reasons including lack of technical innovation,
lack of transparency, premine/presale, high coin inflation, and shady history
of principals.





Very well put, i guess we will wait another month.

^ probably not yet.

They will try everything possible to sell some of the 2.6 to 2.9 billion in their holdings first.

Let's see if they'll manage to produce a genesis block and which exchanges will assist the dump.


Just for shits and giggles:

[...] Put it this way: there are plenty NeuCoin blockchains that are not open to the public because they are just tests. When we are ready to go public, we'll generate the "real" one. Why not now? Because testing something with the actual keys to 3 billion coins would be reckless.

Plenty of test-blockchains, yeah sure, dozens but no one can have a look at them  Roll Eyes... It makes sense to generate the "real" genesis block some day, right, given that you're really capable of producing one. But wait, what's that with the actual keys, I assume you speak of the public keys?! But then again why would it be reckless...

Interesting quote from primevalsoup just posted on neucoin forum:
http://forum.neucoin.org/t/how-about-a-weekly-update-by-dev-as-far-as-the-progress-being-made/1245/47

Quote
Hi Chris,

Sure. I can tell you couple of the things that I would EXPECT to see for a (serious) alt coin that is scheduled to launch in several weeks:

Announcement that a "test net" is ready and available for beta-testers to pound on. BTC, Ripple, NXT coin, Peercoin, etc all have testnets and AFAIK most, if not all, made these available to the general public to test well in advance of release(s).
Neucoin already has a bad track record with QA from the pre-sale. If you remember, faulty logic for a simple click-through page, made it through their internal QA and delayed the launch by hours. Releasing a new fork of an existing coin implementation (Peercoin) has to be several orders of magnitude more complex than implementing the pre-sale logic so I'm not sure how they expect to QA this with internal QA resources alone. Now if there already exists such an environment/beta-program, that's fantastic and exactly the type of meaningful pre-release info I would love to hear about.

Announcements that they have beta version of the wallet software ready that can be/are being tested (again not just with internal QA resources) against above mentioned tesnet.

Announcements that exchanges X Y and Z are in testing with Neucoin so we can be sure there will be a market and, more importantly, market price for Neucoin from the day of launch.

There are many other things (test/development metrics) they COULD be releasing that would give us come confidence that progress is being made but sadly they aren't. Is it arrogance, laziness, genuine lack of progress? I really have no idea but it is frustrating....
