Topic: Golfcoin - New management and website - page 9. (Read 26488 times)

Crypto-Dzayer, although we’ve mentioned some of this before here’s a quick update on what’s going on and also the repercussions the Coronavirus is causing. Obviously it has created a ripple effect throughout the entire golf industry and to be forthcoming there are major changes being discussed. These are primarily in regards to public events and how the company will adjust in the case of long term industry wide decisions to limit or remove the normal large crowd sizes at professional golf tournaments. This would alter the main use case for Golfcoin, however we do not at all believe it will end our path forward.   

The reasoning behind this is pretty simple. Like many other industries, public events are currently being shutdown or postponed leaving services and businesses wondering how long it will last and how to survive without generating revenue. Our opinion is that this will ultimately create opportunities that were previously not available or focused on. With much of the world now debating remote and virtual occupations this could also increase time and money spent in esports and other virtual experiences. This was an addition to the Golfcoin ecosystem and will be part of the information that will be updated on the website. Timing on releasing these updates has changed due to many factors. As we’ve said before we pay close attention to other projects and how developments and announcements affect their coin prices. Many at this time, even projects listed on Binance, are being hit extremely hard and dropping to all time lows. These are also projects that had major investors or ICO’s which of course Golfcoin was not.

A few recent announcements can be read below:
Golf's US PGA Championship to follow Masters in being postponed-

Secondary to the industry news, the fear this virus is causing is having an impact on global markets and as everyone here has seen lately a massive Bitcoin sell off. Many of us have experienced huge increases and drops, however the latest was not a prediction of any trading experts. This has led to many potential investors, partners, and teams (not just in Golfcoin) left to pivot their business models or rethink overall sustainability in their specific industries.

Hopefully this addresses some of your concerns and again if you ever have questions feel free to direct message us.

Sincerely,
Golfcoin Team

Welcome back Crypto-Dzayer. Everything you just mentioned has been addressed here or in the State of Golfcoin. It's unfortunate we're seeing a lot of threatening language like this in multiple projects recently. Including projects already listed on Binance. If you had an issue on Facebook you could've direct messaged us here just like many others have in the past and we would happily discuss it with you. It's your choice to open any thread you would like, but I'm not sure what sort of positive impact that will bring to Golfcoin moving into the future.

While we thank you for your honesty and respect your opinion we couldn’t disagree more.

Maybe if mainstream adoption had occurred and every local and global business was utilizing cryptocurrency and all of them deemed Golfcoin had no use case, but that’s just not what’s happening.

While yes it sucks the markets for Golfcoin have low volume, we’ve continued investing our personal time, money, and efforts because we maintain confidence the use case is strong and has a future. Much of our faith comes from talking to international companies that have serious interest in integrating Golfcoin. However, their interest is more about the use case of how the technology will help their businesses, not the price on cryptocurrency exchanges. In time we truly believe this will change.

The hardest part so far has been conveying to the crypto community that follows Golfcoin that in the real golf industry companies are interested, but not all are ready to adopt the technology due to many factors; coming regulations, volatility, liquidity, mainstream adoption, exchange exit scams, lack of understanding of blockchain, or they are still blueprinting out how this new “decentralized” tech works with former centralized systems.

Furthermore, it’s important to highlight how much this exact same perspective has been held for Bitcoin. Many years went by where people talked about it failing, in fact some still do. We monitor many coins and teams on the market and it never fails. Hundreds of trolls call something a shitcoin for years and then a new opportunity arises and it becomes more sustainable and volume increases.

Binance V Label and Bittrex Corporate Account actually refer to parts of their listing processes. Official announcements will only be made if those exchanges qualify and approve Golfcoin. Also, as stated we plan on making many web changes and updates so some of the 2020 milestones will be added and/or rescheduled.

Hi Crypto-Dzayer,

Appreciate the feedback. This video is focused on simplifying cryptocurrency for everyday golfers and businesses so they can understand what Golfcoin is. After speaking with dozens of companies and people in the golf industry over the last few months we found they are still trying to learn the ins and outs of exchanges and wallets and how they will work implementing into their programs or clubs.

While we know much of the community has expert level knowledge, the fact remains that for widespread adoption we will need to make it easier to understand for everyday people. This will subsequently improve volume and enable Golfcoin to be listed on more exchanges. The big takeaway is that more education, including what will be added to the website, will be needed for demographics outside the current crypto community. We hope this makes sense to our long time standing community since some of the new material may seem obvious, but just understand the reasons will be for adoption into the greater golf industry.

Regarding the rewards program, it is something still being developed with heavy input from real golf professionals that are now advising Golfcoin. This information will only become relevant once clubs and golfers understand and can utilize Golfcoin with the simple existing technology that already allows for Golfcoin to be used as a digital currency.

In addition, being that cryptocurrency is decentralized much of what has been discussed for the program are the new opportunities and also limitations it will present to businesses. Many are familiar with centralized apps for their clubs and rewards programs, so before implementing Golfcoin’s main program that the company will need to support we are working with these companies to map out how they will ultimately function to compliment their existing systems.

Lastly, the team would like to thank the community for all of your patience and continued support. We understand it can be frustrating not getting daily announcements like some of the larger companies, but as time goes on we will prove that Golfcoin is here to stay and will inevitably be the main cryptocurrency used throughout the entire golf industry.

For anyone who has not yet seen the new video check it out!

Happy 2020 Golfcoin Community! We are currently resolving a few issues on the platform Golfcoin has been added to before officially announcing. This delayed the end of year announcement, but we’re still excited to share the development as soon as we can.

Also, a new promo video will be released later this month that we think you will all enjoy. Although the markets have been slow the team is not giving up and we are looking forward to seeing what this new year brings! Thank you for all of your continued support and feedback.

Happy New Year.  Yes, it's exciting to market a coin with a niche.

Happy New Year to the Golfcoin community and the Dev team.
Will 2020 be the year GolfCoin breaks out?? Would love to hear from the Dev team on that.

Still hoping that the day will come to rejoice..but the wait is painfully long to say the least. But, we will keep our spirits high. All we ask you is not to let us down by dropping the project. The no-use withdrawal is painful. Will there be any other twist in the submission again??

Last Reminder - CoinExchange.io will be deactivating withdrawals on Dec.1st. We suggest anyone with remaining Golfcoin still on their exchange withdraw as soon as possible. Can be sent to Trust Wallet, AltMarkets.io, or Altilly.com.

- Crypto-Dzayer - To answer your question, all Golfcoin that was part of the team's was removed in October.

Golfcoin definitely has not been abandoned. There were internal reasons the statement of use was not filed, however it will not affect future plans. 

Hi Crypto-Dzayer!

We are continuing to work to get on a few more exchanges, but as far as Binance or any huge exchanges that will ultimately depend on them wanting to list Golfcoin. Although it has been somewhat of a slow process the team is still in discussions with potential partners and if/when they become official it will be a major turning point. 

Absolutely Crypto-Dzayer!! Here's some information for new comers..
