Topic: Titcoin™ [TIT] | New Developer | Discussion Forum (2016 XBIZ Awards Nominee) - page 12. (Read 65349 times)

Just a heads up... we have a handful of new businesses that are accepting Titcoins now. As soon as we get them up on our website, I'll post the links in this forum. Most likely in the next day or two.

Now that Cryptsy is out of the picture (for now at least), we're working on getting on a couple more exchanges just to make sure Titcoin continues to have long-term liquidity. We're still on Bittrex but they can be finicky with delisting coins based on trade volume.

We are now listed on SafeCEX.com with active trading at the moment. We should also be listed on YoBit in the near future. Feel free to submit a coin request to any of your favorite exchanges, too.

One of the bad news re: Cryptsy was that they offered merchants the ability to convert crypto into pre-paid debit cards which was a strong selling point for gaining adoption.  The good news is Titcoin is supported by PayServices.com which offers the same thing (although slightly more difficult to set up). Going forward, we're going to recommend PayServices to merchants as a platform for currrency conversion and withdrawals.

I mentioned a few months ago that we're planning on a big Titcoin contest in February. That's still our plan. The hard part if figuring out the legal logistics because laws can be strict in various states and countries re: sweepstakes. There are also legal rules on the dollar value that can be given away from a tax perspective. This might impact the amount of Titcoins we will be giving away to avoid all the legal mess involved. I'll post more details soon.

Back from LA. As you may have already heard, we didn't win the award again. It was a bit of a long shot, but I was a little more confident this year and was disappointed in the results. In any case, we're still on the radar of the adult industry and will most likely be nominated again next year. What this means... we need to really make some waves this year to get the adult industry's attention! We obviously could use the community's help to make some noise.

Despite the loss, the awards show was another great experience. We rubbed elbows with many industry elites. I also had a great talk with a large adult toy company based out of London. We also sat at a table with a veteran male porn star celebrity who we talked with for hours during the show. Great guy but very unaware of technology and business. But he could be a good connection to reach other business decision makers.

With that said, I want to announce another business that started accepting Titcoin payments:

Unlucky Lady
http://www.unluckylady.com

If you're keeping track, we've made some good progress over the last few months in gaining Titcoin adoption. What's most revealing is that all the new businesses are cold contacts who reached out to us instead of us selling to them.  This speaks volumes in terms of adult businesses actively seeking alternative payment solutions. Since Titcoin is the most well-known adult cryptocoin, it puts us in a good position as more and more businesses start exploring alt payment options.

Thanks for the continued support.

Hello devs!
So how what's the status on this coin? Anymore accepting this?

Thanks

Nice to see you are up to date with your coin and letting peeps know how things are going with it!

Please post the awards info good or bad

Thanks

Tomorrow's the big day!  We will be attending the 2016 XBIZ Awards in Los Angeles. Fingers crossed this year we finally win the "Alternative Payment Company of the Year" award. As soon as I find out the results, I'll post it on our Twitter account.

Lastly, a new dominatrix started accepting Titcoins a few days ago:

thank you - cryptsy is not safe anymore and everyone avoids it

-samsunk

As many of you know, Cryptsy is experiencing a lot of problems lately. Just to be on the safe side, we are recommending anyone who has Titcoins stored on Cryptsy to transfer them to another exchange or to a secure wallet. The good news is that the Titcoin wallet on Cryptsy is still functional (as of yesterday) and will let you transfer out Titcoins in denominations of up to 100k at a time.

For Titcoin wallet options, please refer to our webpage at:

In light of this, we've also partnered with CoinWallet to host free online Titcoin wallets. You can set up an account at:

Happy New Year everyone.

So this year has started on a good note. Within the past few weeks, we now have an additional 3 new businesses that will soon start accepting Titcoins.

1) Split Peaches - Adult Toy Store
http://www.splitpeaches.com/

2) Zee - Upscale Escort Service
http://www.zeesa.co.za/

3) Daily Girls Cute - Adult Blog
http://www.dailygirlscute.com/

On another topic, I'm in the middle of having an interesting conversation with the CEO of a major Bitcoin payment processor. He's looking for help on how to crack into the adult industry. I'm planning to give him some advice, but naturally we want him to accept Titcoin into his platform. I think it's a strong possibility based on the conversations I've had to date.

Let's hope 2016 will become a prosperous year for us all.

Oh... and in case you forgot... next week is the 2016 XBiz Awards where Titcoin was nominated for Alt Payment Processor of the Year. I will be attending along with 2 other Titcoin staff. Stay tuned on photos and updates on whether we actually win this time.

aaand... one more thing. It's almost February which means we're going to be launching our long awaited 5 Million Titcoin contest. Yes... that's no typo. 5 Million Titcoins will be up for grabs to one lucky winner. Keep an eye on this thread for the official announcement.

thanks. I have been mining for a few years. this is my first crack at my own pool.

Wow good job. I will browse your store this coming holiday to find something suitable for my girf friend.

It's good to see there is some real good progression here.

Merry Christmas everyone!

Just letting everyone know that we launched our official Titcoin merchandise store. We have lots of branded t-shirts, hoodies, cups, etc for sale.

Take a look and help us out a little to pay for our monthly expenses. The profit on each sale is pretty marginal, but every little bit helps cover our server costs.

Right now, we only have logo branded merchandise. But in the future, we'll add more cool t-shirt and sticker designs.

See everyone in the new year.

And just a reminder, we will be attending the 2016 XBIZ Awards in mid-January since we were nominated for an award. Wish us luck!

Hi there,

We did explore breast cancer charities several times in the past. It turns out, partnering with adult-related companies is a sensitive subject matter for them due to the potential backlash. Unfortunately, most advocates in the breast cancer world hate sensationalizing women's breasts even if it means raising awareness and money.

I personally spoke with the director of marketing for Pink Ribbon who pretty much said that they can't be associated with us, however, they would be more than happy to accept donations under the table. That's the same thing we heard from other charities, too. I also spoke about this with James Deen who is a personal friend of ours. He's done breast cancer charity work in the past, but he echoed that he was only able to name his charities 'after' the donations have been made and not beforehand.

Thanks for posting in this thread.

have you ever thought about seeing if a breast cancer charity would accept the coin? while there was backlash when pornhub donated for any view in the big tit small tit categories it was still a noble endeavor and raised a lot of money. since the name is TITcoin you could see if you could create a charity or get listed on a charity as a means of donation that could be very profitable since free porn is more common than paid porn(cams excluded on the porn front that should be the focus though).

Just a heads up... Titcoin was nominated again for a 2016 XBiz Award for Alternative Payment Company of the year.

I'll be putting together a Press Release to make a formal announcement to the public in the coming days.

... and another new business accepting Titcoin.

Rent a Model
http://www.rentamodelmarket.com/

Just keep in mind all of these new businesses accepting Titcoin have been cold inquiries and not any that we've reached out to directly. This just shows the strength of the Titcoin name in the public.
