Hi guys! I want to thank TrollBoxChamp for introducing the Shibe Council, he will be one of the community members helping to introduce ShibeCoin to traders and exchanges, and has a lot to offer the coin. But so does everyone in the community! We have members of many different communities supporting ShibeCoin and are excited for what this coin has to offer.
I have accepted the invitation from the devs to be the first Chairman of the Shibe Council, and I'm happy to offer up the final version of our announcement for the Shibe Council:
Introducing: The Shibe Council!
Hello!
I am proud to have the honor of introducing the Shibe Council. The Shibe Council is an organization comprised of community leaders from all corners of the Shibecoin community, the developers of the coin, and soon, major merchant partners. The purpose of the Shibe Council is to promote ShibeCoin, grow the community, organize charitable events, and ultimately grow the value of ShibeCoin. The Shibe Council will act as a liaison between the community and the devs and will help to ensure that ShibeCoin remains an active, modern, and valuable coin for years to come.
The Shibe Council will meet in public at #shibecouncil on freenode. All decisions made by the council will be in full view of the community, and we encourage everyone to participate in helping to decide the future of this amazing coin! We have some big plans in store already, but are also seeking ideas and inspiration from the community as we push Shibecoin forward.
The council will be founded with the contribution of the last unallocated coins from the pre-mine, a total of 200,000 ShibeCoin, as well as a cumulative donation of 100,000 ShibeCoin from members of the council. My name is brandondoge and I have graciously accepted an invitation by the developers to act as the first Chairman of the Council. I have been active in the altcoin scene for many months and can be found in #shibecoin, and #shibecouncil. I'd like to thank our developers, loq and energion, for their constant hard work and dedication to expanding this coin and its community.
As our first initiative, we are reaching out to the community in search of a world class logo! We already have the classiest wallet in crypto, having the classiest logo will go a long way in setting us apart from the pack! We will be pulling all of the excellent logos already submitted from the thread, as well as seeking other logos from any interested designers. We'll then put them to a vote, and award the designer of the winning logo a handsome 50,000 ShibeCoin prize!
Now, all we need is YOUR help! If you'd like to contribute a logo, simply post it in the Shibecoin announcement thread on Bitcointalk. We'll be pulling all of the logos and putting them to a vote in our IRC channel at #shibecouncil. The tentative deadline is Friday at 11:59 PM GMT. We can't wait to see what the community comes up with! We'll also be announcing more contests VERY shortly, as well as other exciting news regarding the ShibeCoin multipool, and more!!
The Shibe Council accepts donations at Sd9uYAePdCidmadixprZ1i9ER6GivSrS9M, with receipts and expenditures fully visible on a public ledger, as well as the blockchain.http://pastebin.com/PhVvZmzZPlease join us in IRC #shibecoin and #shibecouncil !!!
As the Chairman, my mission will be to seek advice from our community leaders to see what this community needs to move ShibeCoin forward, spread acceptance, reach new markets, and grow in value. Everything will be in plain view in the #shibecouncil IRC and all decisions will be made by consensus. I'm very excited to announce this next step forward for ShibeCoin!
