Could it be, people are holding onto coins and staking? And, those that are dumping might be a little freaked out about the announcement of a relaunch?

Perhaps addressing these issues will boost confidence. Are you still planning on exchanging old coins for new ones? Maybe updating the OP with this info (including the breast cancer campaign) will help too.

"If you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything at all."

Why troll our coin when the boat hasn't even left the port yet, and you're still welcome to jump on board?

The lack of volume is because people are waiting to see what happens.

I promise, none of us working on this thing right now are dumping. None of us are using alt-names to push this coin. Why smear our reputations and not deliver? My advice to you, buy and hold, see what we deliver on, and you decide from there what you want to do. At the current price it doesn't exactly break the bank to buy up several thousand just to see what happens, you now?

Of course, if you want to really take part in making the coin a success, ideas, suggestions, and anything you can do to help is always appreciated. I really like the idea of being able to buy Breast Cancer Awareness stuff with PinkCoins, for example, and that wasn't our idea, that came from gdavis024. Thanks for that! I kinda wish you had a pinkcoin address in your sig so I could tip you for it!


EDIT: I just tracked down some of the dumping to twitter #PinkCoin. It seems there was a misunderstanding on the Multipool happening after Sonysasankan's post yesterday. We have the Multipool lined up, and the dev is willing to accept Pinkcoins for payment, but we need to build community support for one or it's just not going to help. How many coins flopped, got a multipool, and it just didn't help because nobody was interested in mining at it? We can't let that happen, as much as we love the coin.

Support for the Multipool is completely independent of the relaunch and everything we have prepped for it anyway. It would just be another great feather to have in our cap. You know guys?

there's like 1 bitcoin worth of pinkcoin being traded on the only exchange. this coin is dead what are you talking about?

We are in the voting on Mintpal, so feel free to add a vote every now and then

And I don't think many people are watching this thread, and the ones that are have kept pretty quiet about all the announcements. We are all still accumulating more while it's low, I think, or atleast I am

I think most of the dumpers are coming from the last little pump. As per the usual altcoin impatient market, people buy when they see price/volume increase. And bail when it goes down.

Donated some! Is there any plan to get PC on other exchanges for more exposure? And who is still dumping at these prices?

Welcome to the community, I really like the idea of finding a vendor for the pink ribbons etc...
A new community member with good ideas,
Love it.

And W8 for the Mac Wallet too... Bigman ran away without paying him his bounty. So we paid from the donations fund and everyone wanted to throw some extra pink his way just like that

Donations coming in strong and steady. We're just about halfway there and all in about a day!! Keep up the good work guys 

I'm thinking why ppl sell at this price? 

Hi All,

I'm fairly new to the alternative crypto-universe and typically just stuck with bitcoin. I came across PC and I really like what the community is doing here. Obviously, it's unfortunate that the original dev left, but it's amazing how the community bound together to keep the coin going. Kudos It's overcoming adversity despite all the obstacles that makes something great, and that's exactly what I think we are doing here!

Also I'm a huge breast cancer awareness supporter and I love where you guys are taking PC. I'd be pretty cool if we could get a vendor that sells the pink ribbons, rubber bracelets, and other "awareness" apparel to take PC.

Also just donated a little over 100K PC for the multipool fund

Regards,

gdavis024 aka TheDayMan aka DasBoot

Awesome guys! Thank you so much!


That's part of what's so awesome about this community;) We just randomly donate to PC addresses:) And heaven forbid you do something productive for PinkCoin! The guy that did our block explorer ended up with 3x the bounty we offered because everyone wanted to tip him for his work!

P.S. It wasn't me. This time.

Someone gave me 10k coins last night! THANK YOU!! I donated half for the pool. @PC PB9TmJXZTqzLroz9cLzCQe2cNWzEwJeq5g

I love PinkCoin and it's beautiful community! 

just made a 50k donation. hope will help. thanks for your hard work.

Thanks a lot my friend. May the pink be with you!!

Hey thanks for the replies sumgye and sasankan. You guys seem professional, committed and positive about this coin. I will be investing in PC!

Hey, that's actually a neat idea. But I'm afraid it would have to wait as implementing something like that is quite complex and time consuming. It would put the exchanges in hold too. Coin 2 is also implementing something like that after they faced a double spend attack. Its frozen for about a week I think and they're still working the bugs out. It takes too long and we can consider that once pink rises in prices and finds a new stable floor.

There's actually fewer than 380M coins. That was more or less an estimate Bigman made when we hit POS/POW phase, because despite POW blocks being valid until block 20,000, it was 50/50 POW/POS from block 10,000 to 20,000, so only half the blocks were expected to be mined at the full value. It's worth noting that during the mining phase everyone thought there was going to be 500m coins, it didn't come out until later that there were far fewer.

Here are the only issues I can find:

Currently (as of writing) we are on block 76649 and there are 363,973,182 PC available. We're actually knocking out blocks about 2.5x faster than the quoted 1block/minute, which, while odd, isn't producing that many more coins. Comparing to the number of coins available now to the number there were at block 20,000 shows we're actually getting about 1.5% per year proof of stake.

There was a bit of an instamine where the first 500 blocks were mined in the first 13 minutes after launch by a handful of people. Looking through the addresses, it seems all those were dumped long ago.

When people started dumping and the dev didn't seem to be interested in doing anything with the coin (beyond occasionally taking part in things we were doing early on, something we encouraged. We wanted Bigman to stay on board, CryptoCayce gave him 500k pinkcoins as a thank you for creating the coin when he was getting more active again and helping.) We started a semi-community takeover, got a slick block explorer from fairglu (thanks again man!) and extremely generous faucet online (thanks for the help there Ghris and Altcoinfaucet!) and a solid OS X Wallet (Thanks W8!), but when Bigman flat out took the PinkCoin source offline last week and stopped responding to us we had to re-think things.

Since then we're on the verge of a full relaunch with a full fledged Breast Cancer Fundraiser, a new website, a new marketing campaign, a new everything. We've even got a multipool all lined up for us as soon as we can raise the 3m pinkcoins (We're almost halfway there in less than 24 hours!).  I'm actually just waiting to hear back from Sonysasankan before putting on some finishing touches then coordinating the relaunch with him. Hence: this is the best time to invest!

Anyway, I hope I've answered all of your questions and alleviated some of your concerns. If you, or anyone else for that matter, has any questions please feel free to ask!

EDIT: I guess I'm not waiting for a message from Sonysasankan anymore!

Yes a new ANN thread is coming. We're currently working on the website etc that will be the contents of the new ANN page. I'm guessing we should have one in 3-4 days.

You cannot distroy coins that are already in circulation. The mining stage is over and the entire coins are in teh hands of the people.

The original Dev "bigman" did create this coin originally when the color coin fad was at its peak, and really had no intention to see it through to multiple exchanges, build a userbase etc. Somewhere down the road, the people invested in the coin began showing an overwhelming support for the coin... like they really wanted the coin to go somewhere rather than die at 1 sat someday. Bigman was seen less frequently and we all know what happens to a coin when the dev disappears

So a point came where a bunch of us came together and organized a bunch of events like giveaways, re tweets, refilling faucets etc and revived the coin. We're also slowly rebranding the coin to move away from the colour coins category and associate it with breast cancer awareness. To reinforce that, we starting a breast cancer fundraiser event for the National Breast Cancer Foundation and its going to have a two fold effect. One... Pink would be associated with something more serious and more importantly have a focus. Two.... we're giving 100 PC for every dollar donated so we get a lot of non crypto crowd through social media to "discover" crypto through pink. And what do you do when you discover something? You tell it to your friends Word of mouth is an extremely effective tool of advertising and the plan is to spread the word of pink to the uninitiated

So I highly recommend you invest in pink at the moment, because I can assure you.... these prices will not come back once we get the ball rolling. It would be like trying to get BlackCoin for 600 sats now.

Man... if this community doesn't kick ass, I don't know which does A big High five to those who have donated... and to those who are thinking about it as well!



EDIT: Just noticed a .02 BTC donation on the BTC address as well. Much appreciated
