I know some of us have some stuff planned for promotion once wallet is out. (Remember that marketing fund?).

It is somewhat important to time it well. So after wallet, some good things are coming beyond the wallet itself. And that's without talking about the fact most cryptonews will pick up on it due to the nature of the innovation.

In my opinion there's too much preasurre on the new wallet, but new wallet needs time (in this case, it should have all the time it needs) and crypto people are very impatient. It would be nice to do something instead of just waiting for new wallet to appear and lift us to the moon Smiley

"Don't put all eggs in one basket" they say.

I could do something, as I've mentioned before, like thread redesign (using mockups as a preview instead of real screenshots might be a dirty trick, but could work) and promotional public-oriented faucet. But... I think we need to get a small update for existing wallet first. Yesterday I gave some PRT as a birthday gift to my less tech-savvy friend and I had to pray that his wallet would sync up and I wouldn't have to explain him how to use particle.conf file. It synced! So yay for that. He was also very excited, while having no idea, what is this and what to do with it. I told him that I'm giving him The Future Smiley

Cute personal story aside, I propose a couple of small tweaks to current wallet:

1. create particle.conf with default addnode list if the file doesn't exist
2. change the dashboard image to something newer with a hint that new wallet is under development and add simple links to the website/thread/forum/twitter/facebook/whatever
3. maybe a first time popup with a couple of sentences about synchronization? how long will it last? can a wallet receive PRT while it syncing? can user close wallet while it syncs?

(1 and 3 should be in the new wallet too)

So what does this "win"?

1. less new users lost because of syncing issues
2. more new/existing (who updated) users attached to PRT because of curiosity + increased community activity, since "Oh, now new transactions, might as well check the PRT forum"
3. less new users scared by mysterious syncing

Does that make sense?

Also all the above could be displyed clearly at all points of entry to Particle i.e  website, forum, Btalk, reddit, facebook, twitter and youtube etc.

A Big "FAQ" in particle font maybe...

EDIT: "Things you need to know while using Particle"

EDIT(2):  maybe instead of the Particle logo in the legacy wallet, there is some text explaining or giving links to the FAQ etc..

It's not about the new wallet itself really. It's about promoting something that is available instead of promoting something that is to come. There is already a lot of "good things to come" in the crypto world. We want to promote for something that's there.

Any news about coinmarketcap? It's still showing the question mark

Been like that for days now. It is also not listed at the top, if you go to the main site, you cannot see PRT listed.

It may be because they are using "Weedoge's" coin counter and not Abe...

I sent them a message via the main site

EDIT:  And this forum..

We need to find a way to make PRT more wanted by people then!
Make a porn site and payment is only in PRT, will make loads of money on  Prt then!

But seriously, we need more people to have a reason to use it, these websites with betting is great, but, we need something more as we'll.

Do you have any original porn to sell? :}

It has little to do with the option to trade somewhere else but everything to do with the fact it brings exposure.  Many people are like "prt what?". Seeing PRT pop everywhere (like on top of that voting list) compels people to check it out. And we all know once you check it out that you realize it's one of the good coins.
