Crown has been sponsoring “Mind games” in Ukraine for the past couple months. It is a great event where about 250 young bright Ukrainians gather for intellectual battles. Mind games are spread across the country and are held in the 5 cities of Ukraine. First place winners get Crown and Crown USB flash drives
These natural community projects are exactly what we need to spread the word about Crown, thanks for sharing riseandshine

The new update looks good! 1 questions from a newbie, once MN or SN is matured, is the payout daily? Or what? 0.9 for SN and 4.5 for MN am I right? Please tell me if I'm wrong. 😉😉
The formula is: node count / 1440 = # days for reward (approx)

Update on the Crown Branding campaign
Why Facebook marketing: Video 2000
The goal of this campaign is to spread the word about Crown. Crown has a great product, with many applications and very promising tech. Just like "Video 2000". Video 2000? Yeah, the technical superior solution to the good old VHS videos.
For Crown it is important not to become Video 2000 - and thus let as many people as possible know we exist! A great product without users has no value, thus find the users!.
Crown Identity
The second piece of the puzzle in attracting more people to Crown is to have a clear message of just why Crown exists, what it is, and how it works. My team (a marketing & communication specialist and a ) and I have been working on formulating this difficult to fully catch identity story of Crown. This is what we came up with:
A good Crown animation video
However, most people will not take the time to read this - hence an animated video that tells this, with a compelling story that showcases the use of Crown would be ideal to spread this message. We have contacted a bureau (www.fxmedia.nl) that does commercials for Heineken, Deloitte, PostNL and other big companies. They charge between 8k (if you have the script and story ready) and 12k (if you don't have a script and story) euros for a video of professional quality. About 1500CRW is available from the previous content creation proposal to fund this, in total around 4000 CRW to 4500 CRW is needed.
Which means 2500CRW to 3000CRW is still required for the funding of this video.
If you think this is a good idea, and want to support it, please consider to donate some Crown for this professional animation, contact me or send it here: 1BHvjJJVp7JMRioiMNYUckFe3ErvXRGCs9 - thank you!
Depending on how things go, we might write a proposal for it (although the current superblock is quite packed already).
Example videos - style wise would be:
Omnitude:
https://i.imgur.com/WKs7MTH.png
Morpheus:
https://i.imgur.com/5ZEcldB.png
Ads
So reaching people where they hang out is important. The internet is a good place, easy to reach - you just have to throw money at it, and it will find the people that could be interested for you. The Crown Marketing proposal by snoops creates a lot of content, however, not a lot of people see it. On average for the non-paid posts the view count is around 500 views (see figures below).
Which is why with the branding campaign, we create and select posts and pay Facebook to show them to people (see the difference here between posts, the posts with more than 1k views are all paid):
https://i.imgur.com/1oZFNDv.png
https://i.imgur.com/Uybdjny.png
Currently this ad which we created is running, informing people about the upcoming release:

Before that, the systemnode giveaway post we created to amplify the result of the 500CRW giveaway:
https://i.imgur.com/xB4uKMX.png
We have also created a facebook event for the Miami community meeting, to inform our USA community members that it will take place:
https://i.imgur.com/hJV8sVd.png
Another small ad created to thank our community for their efforts of Crown getting it's crownfunding funded in just 24hours!
https://i.imgur.com/9OXPeDM.png
Looking forward: if we get funded another round, we will continue to boost Crowns presence on Facebook. With the upcoming miami meeting, the australian conference, (possible) dubai conference, updates and much more. And next to that continue working on the animation video and get it made.

Quote
WHY
Crown believes in a world where everyone is included to the same social, legal and financial structures. Everyone should be able to have free access to his own information and financial assets within a system that provides security, safety and decentralization. A world where people can create, build and work together. Where no one is left behind and everyone has an equal chance to participate.
HOW
Crown is creating this reality for everyone. By building a platform powered by blockchain technology which is accessible for everyone. It provides high speed transactions in a safe and secure environment. Crown utilizes the security of thousands of Masternodes and Systemnodes. These nodes are the foundation on which the infrastructure of Crown thrives. Crown developed a blockchain technology which is efficient, transparent and secure. Its fundament allows Crown to operate within existing legal and regulatory constructs.
WHAT
Crown is building an application platform that anyone can use. Individuals are in control over their own data and funds. For businesses Crown provides a tool to maximize efficiency and security.
We all work together to build a community driven decentralized structure. Crown tokens offer the possibility for secure payments and by owning Crown tokens you can have an active vote in the development of the platform. This means that Crown is governed by its growing community of partners and friends who work together as a global team…for a tomorrow we all deserve to live in.

Mattermost is now available.
Turns out that my disaster recovery scripts work a lot better than I expected them to.
I'm 90% certain that the original fault has been fixed but need to let it run for a while to make sure.

Mattermost Outage
Our Mattermost database has been corrupted, possibly due to a known problem with Gitlab integration and our older version of Mattermost. I need to do some more diagnosis before knowing for sure.
In any event, Mattermost will be unavailable for several hours. I expect that it will be available from 1600 GMT at the earliest.
I am going to take advantage of this opportunity to upgrade the distro and prepare for video conferencing integration while I wait for backups to restore.
I shall post updates here as and when I have them.
I'm very sorry for the inconvenience.

Do you have to do anything for the fork as a masternode owner?
It looks like there won't be an actual hard fork, but a wallet update is recommended. We'll be providing full guides on how to do so - should be just one or two commands on the VPS side
CORRECTION: a wallet update will be mandatory due to (amongst other things) changes in the queueing mechanic for nodes.
Thanks for the info. I welcome quick instructions on the masternode update.
February 22, 2018, 07:03:02 AM
Our main Mattermost channel is down, working on the fix!

Crown Weekly Update February 21st, 2018
Fork Report
The fork report will be available early next week. It outlines in detail the reasons for the fork as well as everything that we can do to mitigate it from happening again. We look forward to sharing it with you all.
Release Date Set!
The date for our next release has been set! We chose to move the date to March 12th so that it can continue to be rigourously tested and to give time for our team to get situated back home after our meetup in Miami. This release will overhaul the wallet update and node creation process as well as various bug fixes to the governance system.
Stke.io Listing
If you don’t have enough CRW to buy a Systemnode or Masternode, you can now buy shares of a node through Stke.io! The Crown community can now start Crown Hosted Masternodes or purchase shares in Crown Community Masternodes directly or through the Stke.io Marketplace. This is a great opportunity to get more people involved in the community while securing the network.
New Crown Website
Our new website is looking great. At this point it is only a few weeks away and should play a huge role in taking us to the next level. It is a more streamlined and professional looking site that better communicates our values, who we are and what we are building. We look forward to sharing it with you all.
New Proposals
There are some great new proposals this month. These include a research paper, various conferences, sponsorships and events. Read through them and vote for the best ones before the superblock next week on February 28th.
Last week to enter our Systemnode Contest
It is the final week to get entries in for the contest. There is 500 CRW and 1 year of free hosting courtesy of Node-VPS.com up for grabs. Enter as many times as you can here!
Miami Community Meet-up
We have a major announcement to share at the community meetup March 3rd for everyone that attends. It is not exchange related (we will have news to share on that front soon), but it should play a major role in helping us reach our goals as a community. We will of course post about it after the announcement.
Thanks for reading and don’t forget to tune in next week!

CRW already has fast transaction times and low fees with instant TX through #masternodes, but later this year we will unveil a new consensus mechanism that will take us to a new level.
