"A dog biting its tail" condition. We need a way out. Learning from the crazy dogecoin results, we need excellent marketing along with good development (even a BTC-e or a BTC38.com exchange). And ... we need it ... now.
We need to  sparkle the process.

DogeCoin is an excellet example of what marketing and good development can do.  Here is a background:

Quote
Dogecoin was created by programmer and former IBM engineer Billy Markus of Portland, Oregon. He was originally trying to tinker with an existing cryptocurrency of Markus's called "Bells" based on Nintendo's Animal Crossing. His hopes were reaching a broader demographic than the investors who made up Bitcoin's economy and something that wouldn't be involved with the controversial history behind Bitcoin (namely its association with the Silk Road).[12]

At the same time, his friend Jackson Palmer, a worker for a marketing department in Sydney, Australia for Adobe Systems, and the original individual who first conceived of the idea for Dogecoin, was encouraged by a student at Front Range Community College on Twitter to make the idea reality.[13] This led Palmer to reach out to Markus.[14]

After getting several mentions on Twitter, Palmer bought the domain dogecoin.com, which was shown to Markus and quickly began the partnership between Markus and Palmer, launching the coin shortly after the development of Markus' Dogecoin wallet was done.[15]

So, if some dude from Sydney, Australia can market DOGEcoin to be big,  then some dude from Melbourne, Australia can do the same.

If some former IBM engineer can develop DOGECoin then some former IBM engineer can also develop iXcoin.



Now you're talking cryptic like Luke.  You're developing this coin so are you a former IMB software engineer?  Can we start being a little upfront here people.  Mr. Connell, we would all really appreciate it.

There are two possibilities:
- all the lazy holders have, by coincidence, bought ixcoin
- the real holders are just a few, but very big ones

I don't believe in coincidence.

There are 3 possibilities.  Even though the second one is very much the case as well.  Holding a large % of coins, and not trading them causes the coin to grow very stale.

The 3rd possibility, which I know for a fact exists, as I have a few friends that are big BTC miners.  The coin is merge mined with BTC.  That is a blessing and a huge curse rolled into 1.  The BTC miners are getting these coins, but since they are worth virtually nothing, they don't even bother downloading a wallet to pick them up or sell.  They just sit there collecting dust, and causing the coin to grow stale in the process.  They aren't even touching their NMC coins, as they feel $7 a coin isn't worth their time to collect them up and sell either. 

Granted Cryptsy isn't the biggest exchange out there.  But looking at volumes and seeing times where no IXC was traded, ad other times when 3 coins traded here, 7 there is very discouraging to anyone wishing to invest in this coin.  Especially when you consider the sheer number of coins that are available in the market.  This isn't 21 coin we are talking about here.

There is a 4th possibility,  the coin is so evenly distributed.

This is a very real possibility.  I think we have thousands of merge miners holding a few thousand iXcoins each and most don't sell cause its not worth enough to make a difference.  Early huge miners like BCX hold 200,000 coins but that's rare so that means the newer miners hold much much less. 

This is a good thing for iXcoin.  This is what you want to have in any global coin.

However, how do you explain the massive trading volume of NMC every day?  In BTC-E NMC ranks #3 in trading volume after BTC and LTC.  So your explanation that miners just hold the coins also doesn't explain the lack of trading volume.



But he's saying the miners don't even hold the coins.  He's saying they don't even have wallets so then where are these merge mined coins going?

And yes, why does DVC, NMC and other merge mined coins have lots of volume.  There's something else going on.

Sorry, that's kind of what I was going with.  It takes alot to get a BTC miner to sweep out their NMC pool wallet, and that is at $7.  For a coin worth $0.11 it's going to take that much more to get them to bother.

Just wondering, does IXCoin have any stores that accept the coins yet?  If not, I admit my store is extremely low volume, and it's general purpose is just to bring a possible market to coins, not to really make money, but if you are hard up for a first site, I could add IX Coin to the list of coins I would be willing to take.  It's not alot, but if even 1 Steam game manages to sell, that might be a volume of about 500 coins, which looks better then 3-4 coins traded.

Vivisector999, today you are my hero.
Frictionlesscoin, can you add this store on the iXc official website?

If this is the company of Luke Connell

http://www.itransform.net.au/

It seems he is able to find the right person for any kind of work. I would  not be surprised if he finds the way to recruit a former IBM engineer for iXc in Australia.

Social media... that's the key.

Collected info about the 3rd iXcoin exchange C-CEX.com

- Ukrainian exchange
- full operational from February 20th 2014
- SSL, VPS, 2FA
- direct funding and withdrawal using http://payeer.com/en/
- the trading fee will probably be 0,2%

Twitter: https://twitter.com/CryptoCurrEncyX

If we can get BTER on any chinese exchange, we'll be in good shape.

BTW,  I thought you had chinese friends who could translate?

Yeah if only we had a former IBM worker. Or even anyone with a background in industrial coding.


That's what we need.

Probably MarkM is right, when the price will go up to 1 USD many wallets will be opened, giving real liquidity to the coin.
So, the coin will be traded more when the price will reach 1 dollar, but to reach one dollar iXc needs an higher trading volume.
