Eigentümlich frei is a libertarian monthly print magazine , with a circulation of about 6,000 copies. The online edition ( www.ef -magazin.de ) is clicked by 300,000 readers a month.
Readers are especially educated men younger to middle-aged , who are followers of the Austrian Economics and the current money system are critical .
I find an interesting target group for Nxt .
The media data can be found here: http://ef-magazin.de/media/assets/EF_Mediadaten_kompakt.pdf

How should the marketing look like? I would prefer the online edition and indeed a large banner 200x400 pixels. Take a look here right how it looks like : http://www.ef-magazin.de/

Cost: To start times 1 month I would propose . This will cost € 386.75 inclusive of VAT
In addition, we would have a nice set of meaningful banner in 200x400 pixel format (ie portrait) Unfortunately, I 'm not good in such things, can somebode help out her? Cax?

How to finance : I try to get the Nxt marketing budget once. We need about 9200 Nxt . I would be great to get, 10.000 Nxt , so the one who created the banner ,
also gets something .

What is your opinion about this?

salsacz: If I get green lights from the marketing fund I would start here and manage everything. Just tell we if you would be fine to donate 10k of the Nxt Marketing found for this!

the topic should be based on:

internet vs. decentralized DNS in Nxt
= internet controlled by government vs. Kim Dotcom + Assange + Snowden's free noncensorable internet data and communication

you can even use a picture of the gevernment representative vs. our heros: Snowden and Assange
this focus on decentralized Nxt can be implemented into the banner. IF the banner was based on free web, it could be worth it.

The picture should be a response on this text:
http://ef-magazin.de/2013/11/11/4639-edward-snowden-das-ende-des-internets

You could try to ask the german community, if they could write the article about Nxt too, also as a response on this text:
http://ef-magazin.de/2013/11/11/4639-edward-snowden-das-ende-des-internets
http://ef-magazin.de/2013/12/16/4759-bitcoins-echte-alternative-oder-kontrollierte-opposition-aus-der-puppenkiste-der-wall-street-cia-und-nsa

if not, than at least similar to:
http://ef-magazin.de/2013/07/01/4322-bitcoin-als-vertrauenswuerdiges-geld-geschaetzt

Such articles would mean also an additional bounty

So you start with the banner or article texts and if you "deliver"something, we can try to get it to the "Eigentümlich frei" and even other Magazines, even in other languages.

Good job

Someone should build a Nxt equivalent of this:

Hey guys...I just if we could get this for NXT, that would be the kickstart...

We have our first small online tournament up. It starts saturday and is a chess tournament.
See: http://www.freechess.org/Events/NXT/

I've written a small article on it, which anyone can publish.
It also would be cool, if someone translated it to russian and spanish.

Media is giving thukfman far too much credit.

It's only media in the sense that it's signs broadcast over a medium

Musical farts can be described like that, too.

The MaxCoin reddit has 30 subscribers, that may not sound impressive, but consider that NXT coin only has 52 subscribers but commands a market cap over $60 million and you start to see why I am excited.

Whew, from a terribly busy Frankfurter Messe I want to let you people know that my developer has taken up my question for a Nxt payment module a level higher than I anticipated.

Because he basically saw no way to garantuee safety in a simple way he got a friend involved who has a hosting company, and this person is now also interested.

They now have the plan to set up some kind of dedicated server system (tecnical details elude me after a day of building our booth, but I will elaborate when less tired) to facilitate Nxt payments. They are also willing to develop the modules to work with it.

Basically all customer actions are dealt with via their own client, the server basically is meant to report to the shopkeepers if payments have been done and are confirmed.

As I say, I'm too tired at the moment to be totally coherent, but it looks great and I am chuffed that more developers after only a weekend of digging throught the wiki are very interested.

Looks like we will have some kind of payment system that can be easily used up fairly soon (no ETA though, embryo stage).

I think it would be worth also trying to get an article on the online edition. This would probably have greater impact than paid advertising. Especially if we wait until we have a clear idea about implementing ZeroCash (as NxtCash) on Nxt.

The RaspberryPi thing is not sure (some have rpi running 0.6), but in the future, it might work again (parallel chains). Keep that in mind.

BUMP from main thread. FYI. 

At the moment our current level is only 0.01 TPS so we have a long way to go.

I am concerned with marketing campaigns that end up becoming a PR disaster due "ridiculously over optimistic" promises.

A product that delivers its promises is respected much more than one that "promises the moon" but never actually delivers.


I think it would be better not to be marketing about 1000+ TPS and CfB seemed to agree that "even 100 TPS would be very good".

Bitcoin can only "theoretically" handle 7 TPS *now* so if Nxt is able to do more than 10x that I think it will be "good enough" for at least a year (and would still put it well in front of the competition).



On Visa speeds and marketing: If saying we have Visa speeds or 1000 tps is worrying people that it may lead to unfulfilled expectations then I think we don't have to compare Nxt to Visa in marketing.  Instead perhaps we should say near-real-time or near-instant transactions. Or just the fastest transaction times in cryptocurrency.
(…)

Forging on low-cost computers with limited storage: those days may be numbered.  Leasing forging power will be where we want to shift marketing once it is implemented.


I hate to see the RaspberryPi left behind, but 512MB was tight to begin with.

There are tiny computers with 1G and 2G RAM, like the Cubies, Odroid, and some Android sticks.

Unless we also have him upload the file directly to the nxtcrypto site. We do have a lot of interested traffic and could even provide them with RSS or subscribe options.



QBTC, I'm happy to send the podcast audio to you if you want to host it at www.nxtcrypto.org.  I also have space on my server, but don't know how long-term that option would be.  We could also use Jellycast, which is relatively inexpensive and simple to set up with appropriate RSS feeds, etc.


Really, I can make uploading to the site as easy as adding to Soundcloud or a Facebook post. Then you don't have to be as dependent on me or my schedule. Then I can set up the RSS feeds and use some schedulers and social posts on publication features... We can set up a subscription  too.

It will take some time for the initial setup and I'll try to do it this weekend. I'll let you know when we can start testing and you can give feedback. I think it's reasonable to have the whole thing in place and ready to use next week Smiley

Who would like to speak at the Lets talk Bitcoin show? Smiley

Who would like to speak at the http://www.cryptocurrencyconvention.com/ in New York?

PLZ Help me make contact w/ #nextcoin creator.Hosting The Crypto Currency Convention n NYC.We want them to speak and promote #NXT

I've missed the past few days. Did we get anyone lined up for these?

For the LTB show, we'll need someone who can speak passionately about Nxt, the community, and the Future! (Perhaps two people would make for a more interesting interview. Joefox and one of the devs, for example?)

My apologies if this has all been decided and I didn't notice.


Still with all that being said, ultimately thats got to be someones decision and it cant be me since as a candidate i would be biased. I cant just chose myself Tongue. Salsacz is the head of marketing so ill leave that up to him, if he assigns me the task than i will do it. If he choses someone else than I will respect that also.

http://cdn.memegenerator.net/instances/500x/43094140.jpg

Ok so then I need more information. Is it just an open invitation from letstalkbitcoin or do we have a specific date lined up? Will I get a transcript of the questions that I'm going to be asked before hand? Are we talking about having 2 people on the show at the same time?

It's very open invitation without any specific data
