Agreed.

As i have said before, the community needs to be active for this coin to succeed.

The way to do this is TWITTER!!

@NewYorkCoinNYC @BtcRat This coin should be on @BittrexExchange

Just copy and paste, Its very simple really PR PR PR!



Again my simple suggestions:

Cap the amount of coins, 100Billion is a ridiculous amount of coins. Adjust the coin limit to end in about a month and change to POS.
Get the MAC/Android wallets out.
Update the QT or make a GUI Wallet.
Approach Bittrex (big day-trading exchange)
Hire someone to do your PR if you can’t do it yourselves, Promotions and giveaways ALLWAYS sell coins.
Get yourselves ready for the Airdrop on the 4 July, You’ve been hammering it on Twitter and you will look like fools if you don’t do it.

Innovation is key to success here and you are way behind the curve but that doesn’t mean you can’t still adapt and compete.

Right that is what I wanted to ask. What will happen if lets say 5 business will start to accept NYC, will the price go up? Because on bleutrade is price 0. Can I change NYC on other places?

You download a NYC wallet. Based on current exchange rate (which is 3 litoshi as of today) you calculate number of NewYorkCoin needed to purchase your product. And the customer sends you that amount of NYC. You can then hold the NYC anticipating future value increase. Or sell it on an exchange.

You will never be able to buy a cup of coffee with BTC. The transaction takes 40+ minutes to confirm. BTC will be used for money transfer, online payments, etc. NYC has a huge advantage over BTC because transaction confirmations take only 2 minutes. That is a huge advantage that BTC will never be able to overcome. BTC is 5+ years old and has tons more services, infrastructure, acceptance, support, etc. NYC is only 3 months old and has a built-in security and technical advantage. MUCH FASTER TRANSACTION CONFIRMATIONS.

Call every business in NYC that already accepts bitcoin or litecoin (already understands cryptocurrency and supports decentralized digital currency) and speak to the owner/decision maker about accepting NewYorkCoin as well. In return for accepting NewYorkCoin they will receive 10,000,000 NYC - as a lottery ticket in essence. They will support NewYorkCoin. Enable their customers to support NewYorkCoin. And receive 10,000,000 NYC which if valued at just 1 penny will be worth $100,000! They simply need to post a NewYorkCoin sticker in their window, take photo of business owner standing next to photo in window and allow us to issue a press release about their business accepting NewYorkCoin. That's it!

They can limit amount they accept in NewYorkCoin to $5, $10, $20, $50 - whatever they feel comfortable with. At least until exchange rate improves and/or liquidity improves. Just a few real-world brick and mortar businesses in New York City accepting NewYorkCoin would create a BIG BUZZ and kick start demand/buying/speculation frenzy and likely send NYC/BTC into the stratasphere!

GLAD TO SEE SOMEONE WANTS TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR GETTING NEW YORK COIN MOVING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION AND NOT JUST WAITING FOR "THE FOUNDATION" (which again is little old me!) TO MAKE EVERYTHING HAPPEN. Maybe more miners/supporters will take your lead!

Have you reached out to, or found anyone, in New York that would be willing to spend a few days going from mom and pop to mom and pop shop and pitch nyc coin?  i live in az.  i have posted some things on Nyc craigslist and am trying to put the word out to local blogs.  any suggestions on what a guy like me who lives cross country can do to help raise awareness?  im a believer in this coin and am willing to spend my time and effort any way i can

I did not heard about the Pizza story. My question is, how can anyone start accepting this coin? Lets say that a that I will start to sell goods for NYC. What can be expected? Lets just say I will be first who starts with that. Any predictions about future?

Nick,

Have you ever heard of the Bitcoin Pizza story? We're in the very early stages of NewYorkCoin. NewYorkCoin is ONLY 3 MONTHS OLD! Value will rise substantially from current levels when we achieve New York City business acceptance. And usage of NewYorkCoin. It's the future value of NYC - it's a lottery ticket!

Everyone is waiting for The Foundation to do the work. I AM THE FOUNDATION. I have created a great website. Updated wallets. Cleaned up source. Created a working block explorer. Gotten press coverage. Do YOUR part!

Get merchant acceptance. Or get lost.

10 MIL NYC=0.5 LTC=5 $  for MARKETPLACE ACCEPTANCE
1 MIL NYC =0.05 LTC=0.5 $  for Air Drop
WTF
Who needs this ridiculous amount of money? 0.5 $ LOL....

NewYorkCoin needs real world New York City business acceptance (and usage). Rather than posting on this board, contact NYC businesses to accept NewYorkCoin. The New York Coin Foundation will pay the 10M NYC bounties. Just no time to do the sales push at this point. Need community support and HELPFUL assistance. Mining a coin is not assistance. Getting MARKETPLACE ACCEPTANCE is the only real help. Do it!

My point is was why a bitcoin clone will fail but a nyc clone would have the same chances of success.
Because right now nyc has 0 strong points.

Also altcoins are not a hedge against bitcoin price.
Because bc/doge/primecoin/darkcoin prices are measured in btc they all go down with the ship , and even faster sometimes.

About the high value of btc...
Wait till you will buy a coffee with 10 satoshi... that would be easy , right?

I would never expect to replace bitcoin, unless of course something happens that causes people to lose faith in that network.  This risk will preserve the need to have altcoins.  Altcoins and parallel blockchains will always exist to hedge against exposure to risk in bitcoin.  Then the only question is how usable are the next best bitcoin alternatives.  Not everyone cares about anonymity.  And bitcoin is expensive.  There is the simple psychological factor that people will want to conduct daily transactions in small integers, like four coins for a burger, not .0099000.

But bitcoin will catch on fast in NYC.  Demand for some altcoins will be strong.

Keep voting.
Maybe next week we will get there:)

                                              NYC 3rd place in swisscex  NYC IS  STRONG COIN 

Because you can't replace or create bitstamp btc-e bitpay or coinbase out of the blue.
You can't get 50 000 daily transactions on a new coin.

Bitcoin has the popularity and no other coin can't currently compete with it.

Nyc has none of the above , that's why a clone can easily match it.

You have done so much useful for those who know that just grateful.



NYC bought cheaper still. Currency price by 3 orders of magnitude more .....

It's summer and my 2*HD7990 - the hottest video for mining in the world are not even needed. Easier to buy on the cheap in a panic.

And this advantage.

Only for the miners - the global penetration of funds NYC and  "airdrop" 4th of July Independence Day.

Coin is not for one year, but for the impatient rise after 2.3 weeks.

I agree with you, we need Dev for answer all questions in this thread and comunity for doing something.
I will try contact some marketplaces and websites, which accept altcoints end of this month, but my english isn't so good. I am still voting, mining and ready for donate coinpayments. But we need more people to support NYC!
It is more difficult support coin, which has low volume, but if more people will support NYC and try write some articles, contact people from New York, we will increase volume, price and finally we own lot of NYC with low price :-)

 

Someday there will be a NewYorkCoin.  We have the chance now to be that coin.  We need more from the devs and more from the community.  When I say we, I am speaking as an early investor and not as a dev.

We finished near the top of the voting on coinpayments during their last competition, in the company of some other very successful coins, and there is still voting going on at Swisscex where NYC is almost at the top.  We are very close to breathing life into the coin.

The network / blockchain is still operational and Im getting 11 node connections which is more than most altcoins have.  The coin is not dead, it just has no real world utility yet.  It has a meme that must eventually bear fruit.  The only question is whether it can gain acceptance in the marketplace and whether its users are mere speculators or actual productive supporters.

If you were looking for a free ride or a quick buck, NYC isnt that.  If you believe that New York is a major hub for cryptocurrencies and that an established NYC coin has a manifest destiny to succeed there eventually, then roll your sleeves up and contribute focused effort to the cause.  It doesnt matter so much how many exchanges carry the coin now, look at Karma, they have a massive market cap and almost no footprint on the exchanges.


Im voting on Swisscex and I have btc loaded into coinpayments in case they open another round of voting.  The devs could at least release a wallet upgrade or give the network a revamp to show that they are committed and professional.  If the NYC twitter account had anything big to say, I would be retweeting, but we're still talking about this airdrop.  Thats not news anymore.

Just my 2 NYC's...

If you like what you said,BTC(NYC) is not unique,why many people accept BTC, BTC sell $600 - $1200 or many,People can create another BTC, Why?

Failed comparison.A good domain name was unique in the 1990.
New York coin is not unique.

I can't have another google.com domain but i can easily create another New York coin with the same NAME same block time same number of coins.

And .. nobody knows NYC and from the links I've posted nobody supports it.
