It looks like Mintpal re-adjusted their voting. EduCoin is still at ~60th position and moving up. Voting with BTC dust is a very good idea!

EduCoin has been added to another marketcap index: http://worldcoinindex.com/
Currently in last position. First to the library, then to the moon!
Great to see the coin is still moving forward.
However, we need to find a way to give the coin more value.. Looks like the coin is really dumped and therefore it's hard to let it gain value again. Does someone has an idea?
The future of this coin will unfortunately not be very bright if we stay at this value, I think

Maybe we should start to think about Poloniex?

EduCoin crowdfunds students at eight events across the US!
In just three weeks, our community has crowdfunded and given 177 million EDU to some of the brightest middle, high school, and college students we could find! EDU has traveled from coast to coast in the US, from New York to Texas to California. This has had two major consequences. Student hackers are trying out new ideas to disrupt education with EDU. Second, these future Googlers and startup CEOs are holding onto their EDU with the aim of spending them one day soon --at school!
Here is a summary of the student events where EDU has made an impact. The students at these events not only want EDU, they plan to do something with it!
1. HackUVA at the University of Virginia [1 million given]
2. HackRU at Rutgers University [1 million given]
3. HackNYU at New York University [35 million given]
4. HackUCI at the University of California Irvine [10 million+][donate now]
5. HackExeter at Phillips Exeter Academy [10 million+][donate now]
6. WonderWomenHacks in Long Beach, California [69 million reaching for 100 million][donate now]
7. HSCTF High School Capture The Flag [10 million+][donate now]
8. SoHacks School's Out Hacks [10 million+][donate now]
Developer Update Re: Wallet Updated to v1.0.1

Any news?
Developer Update
1. Getting ready for a release today (5/3) of version 1.0.1. This is a security update addressing the OpenSSL (Heartbleed) vulnerability widely reported a few weeks earlier.
2. Later next week there will be a mandatory upgrade with release version 1.1.0. We have examined the KGW issue, tested the fix, and now, we have decided to go forward with the better option of DigiShield.
3. Further updates on EDU adoption coming soon! But don't forget to contribute! Let's meet our promised target goal for WonderWomenHacks (39-million EDU left to reach it!)

Thank you for the reply, I am farther north. I would also like to add that I have a Pingry connection, not myself - someone close. Thank you EDU. I do not think I am should be the one to focus on, as I am modest. I know that I am more well off than others in the world. I am just upset at our education system and believe there should be change, I thank you for the innovation and the real world concept of a crypto. I am willing to support the coin, thus out. I will at my best spread the word.
Best of luck EDU, congrats on progress, Miner since day one, small but I get some. ISM degree, no jobs however. Let me know if work is needed on the back-end. This may be out of your realm, a flyer in a Sunday paper. The NY times, USA Today. I would suggest any one involved to keep it local, due to cost. A template to keep it uniform.
Thanks for the message and really glad to have you here! Are you a graduate of CMU? An ISM degree and your skills are valuable to the marketplace and to the EDU community! We have a dev chat at https://gitter.im/edumoto/educoin and a Slack room. We'd love to see you join us there sometime in the future.
Also, why don't we run an experiment with EDU for you? An idea you may want to consider is education crowdfunding for: you, your school debt, or your future education (if unemployed maybe more training would help you pivot your career). Think about going public, PM Satoshi Edumoto for details at [email protected] with your contact info.

We are on a roll here with HackNYU!
Patent Pending@NYU, has accepted our offer to sponsor its second hackathon at the NYU Polytechnic School of Engineering this weekend! Once again, EDU will be awarded to some of the brightest computer science talent in the nation!
How to contribute
I am posting Hack NYU's public receive address here: 6WVLbpFZb8jHBZgzE9BG3HXW84LC1boJ8L
Here it is in the block explorer, where you can see an initial contribution of 10-million EDU:

Background
NYU Student Senators Council and Patent Pending have collaborated to celebrate the new merger by hosting our second hackathons together at the NYU Polytechnic School of Engineering. A hackathon is a competition that involves solving an engineering challenge in a set period of time. Hackathons test individuals’ skills in programming, design, creativity, time management, and problem solving.
Hack NYU is all about turning your cool ideas into reality. Whether you want to build the next Twitter or you have an idea to make finding books in Bobst more fun, we want you to build it. So come join us for 48 hours of building and competition.
Date
May 2, 2014, 5:30pm - May 4, 2014, 5:00pm
(Main link: http://patentpendingnyu.org/)
The EDU will be used as giveaways, as hacker team resources, or as prize money to winning teams. Either way, they are most likely going to students and people who can clearly see value in them. This is part of our continuing adoption strategy and I hope you can join us! Stay tuned, there are more hackathons coming!

Hi 500Crypto. Good news. We are in the conversation and they are aware of EDU.
Edumoto has reached out to Dan at MIT and others across the country. College bitcoin clubs are sprouting up all at once across the US, thanks to sharp early adopters and the College Crypto Currency Network whom we also reached out to. EduCoin is in the thick of things in the college space, as you can see in both devs twitter feeds (@educoin_crypto // @satoshiedumoto). But it doesn't just stop at college, EDU is aiming to shape the entire education space.
EDU is moving forward in some areas where the college Bitcoin clubs are not, and they are in some areas where we're not. We'll continue to look for areas where we can support each other. For instance we already know that school presidents and provosts are wary of Bitcoin's Silk Road image (as unfair as that is). Not everyone out there is as enlightened as an MIT department chair or administrator! We agree that Bitcoin will be adopted on campuses across the country, but we see it equally beneficial if both are adopted simultaneously.
TLDR. If Gmail and campus webmail (.edu) can co-exist, then BTC and EDU can co-exist.
MIT may be considering educoin?
