What a coin, but one question. What happens when I own 10k of fire?
HYPster,
Then you would own 10k FIRE (>10%), the rest would be up to you. Could help the coin, just depends on what you would do with the 10k FIRE. Everyone has ideas, what would yours be if you had 10k FIRE? If you ask me, I would say that FIRE COIN could be turned into anything. My vote would be some type of fire safety equipment as an item that FIRE could be known from (like the actual BTC/LTC coins made), but many might want FIRE to stand for something else. No one really talks about it, now could be a great time? What does the fire community think, other things FIRE could grow into?
I said the same thing 2 months ago; maybe if a company accepts BTC for their products and services can also take Firecoin as payment; Tom, you should do a poll ....
It wouldn't be that tough to get in contact with a few sites like these, ask them if they have heard about cryptocurrencies & see if they would be willing to test it out. You never know, they might add BTC/FIRE & help cryptocurrency grow. I'm not one for the gambling or many other apps that people are trying to add to every coin, that will not help promote a coin like a real merchant would. There might even be a few places like this that already accept BTC, just need someone to ask them what they would think about adding FIRE as well. The way I see it, if there's that one family/couple who is planning on adding a fireplace (just an example, could be anything fire related) & just can't quite afford it. Maybe if they were to see BTC/FIRE as a payment (BTC as the major payment & FIRE as the extra coupon/etc). Just another way of gambling maybe, but if they bought FIRE & held it for say a few month-1yr? The price they would have ended up paying to buy said Fireplace (example), think of the people who use credit or layaway for items.
There's 100's of places to start, they're not going to come to FIRE & FIRE has to go to them

FIRE might be able to make it's way, the Crypto-Auctions that Tom14Cat14 added to FIRE was a start. I would find one that is well built & has years of service though, no one wants to buy from a site with very few items & the service hasn't been around for years. Sorry if that creates some hate toward me from the merchants just trying to build, but as someone who has been down that road many times. It takes time & money to build, but if FIRE only adds the sites building & not ones that have a well built business in place already? Ones that make several sales everyday, would be what every coin needs & it's not going to find the coin, the coin has to find it
