I'd like to open up this marketing dialogue with the community.
What, in your opinion is required via marketing to ensure adoption in the long run (not as a pump and dump)?
Bitcoin is highly criticized for not having good marketing to promote itself and many people have millions of dollars worth of bitcoin and yet no one really markets it, no investor has reached out of their pocket to really push adoption. The marketing that IS done for bitcoin is the one that comes from adoption from end-users and merchants.
We, like bitcoin, want even more adoption than what bitcoin already has, we want to go worldwide and compete with ebay, amazon, aliexpress, etc! in a sense, our main target is merchants but attracting merchants right now would not be wise while we are still in Beta; we want a finished product to be able to gain adoption; something that is plug-and-play, easy to use. Once that is done, we can certainly target merchants. IMO if you target merchants right now they will come with interest and leave with thinking it's too complex or buggy and never come back, wouldn't that be an investment in time and money wasted?
There seems to be a lot of talk/comparison about SDC; I'll say it right now, IMO it's all hype but DYOR. Dark Markets are really a big thing specifically in crypto right now; we are here for justice and we want to attract the whole world but certainly not Dark Markets-- we want to be able to continue to develop Syscoin and not end up in jail because we facilitated that type of cause; jail=no development..
Don't get me wrong, I believe we do need some extra marketing and lately our social accounts have been much more active, trying to gain more interest via various communities IE: tech, bitcoin/altcoins, opensource, merchants, etc; but I would love your input on what specific actions you believe should be taken.
So please, if yourself or anyone else can give clear suggestions on what should be done, our ears are certainly open!
And don't forget, to vote for Syscoin to get on CEX.IO .. Please upvote that post and post a comment! It only takes a couple of minutes to sign up for an account if you haven't already --- it's owned by GHASH.IO so if you have mined there before, you already have an account!

Maybe if you guys manage to win the court or maybe you can spend some from the premine. I think having ad spaces with websites are gonna be helpful. Not only crypto websites but others as well. I also think having a better visuals with the wallet can help
