The press release has now been picked up by Yahoo Finance!

http://finance.yahoo.com/news/xcurrency-unveils-industry-leading-cryptographic-124348907.html

Great to see.
But i do think the download page this articles links to can use some work

Done.

(For now, that is. The website is, as you probably know, getting a complete revamp very soon.)

I think we will get a vertcoin wave coming over pretty soon, get in while it's cheap loyal holders! Don't let them have cheap coins Wink

Many people are not familiar with Vertcoin Stealth Address (First in the world), maybe you're one of them Wink

Quote

At the moment, we’re working on stealth addresses in Vertcoin. Those of you have been around a while may remember, in the early days of VTC, there was some discussion over zerocoin implementation, and we made clear that anonymous/untraceable payments were not the direction we wanted to go with VTC – we are of the opinion that mainstream adoption won’t come from these features, and that they will actually damage the currencies that go down that route. The fact is, people don’t care about anonymity – if they did, they wouldn’t use social media etc.

However, we do believe in transactional privacy akin to what you expect from your legacy payment/banking systems, such that it’s not trivially easy for anyone to see your entire financial history.

Stealth addresses strike a good balance – all the transactions are still on the blockchain to be seen, but the link between an address and an individual is obfuscated. One thing that not many people seem to consider when talking about anonymity systems in cryptocurrencies is that true anonymous payments make all the blockchain tools you’re used to useless.

Stealth addresses increase privacy for a recipient by allowing you to publish a stealth address, which is like a seed which the sender then uses to generate a unique one-use Vertcoin address for the transaction. All the transactions remain public on the blockchain, but knowing the entire transactional history of your stealth address is now no-longer possible except for you, the holder of the secret key.

Outside investors will take a few days to digest the news, want to buy, convert into BTC and convert into XC. It may be a sustained daily increase over the next few weeks.

Yes it'll take a few days for the news to filter through to print media, etc. and a even longer before opinion pieces and feature articles start appearing. But they're coming.

Might not have the impact 'State Side' in US... as it's a holiday week, but this will be a VERY nice anchor for Rev2 release when everyone returns to work and are surfing the internet. I think any later than today and the impact would have been lost, but you might be right in that people are going to take some time to get their money to market.

I don't know if you guys are watching the markets right now, but the trading action is exciting. There are multiple attempts by whales to bring down the price (to buy in cheaper) but due to the buy support their attempts fail.

I think that is either a false observation or those whales are not very smart. To try and hold down the price shortly after a great news release is just like fighting the elements. Probably it could be attributed to miners who postponed selling their XC until better times, meaning now : )

there are some GREAT profit opportunities in the market right now. If I held tens of housands of XC, I would definitely use some hundreds to make a decent profit these couple of days and rebuy XC, problem is you really dont know how fast XC is going to get pumped. Once traders and tweeterers notice that XC is getting all the volume they are gonna jump. There are a lot of people who got burned at the old FUD days, if some of them understand what XC has gone through to enjoy these bright days, they might jump up as well.

But the greatest news have yet to be noted:

1)Team is preparing interviews with media for Dan(?)
2)Team is talking in order to promote XC with the help of the NFL players? Did I understand correctly? I didn't just read that they bought XC, I think I read in here somewhere that they will actually get involved with the Team? Is this true?

AND PRWEB PROMO STARTED ONLY 3 HOURS AGO AND ITS GONNA LAST A WEEK TILL REV2 RELEASE LIKE WTH!!!

It is just day traders making a quick profit or someone getting out when their profit target is met.

Yeah, stealth addresses are pretty cool. They're a very practical feature.

first peer-2-peer(p2p) truthless coin. yay! im in. Grin

so vericoin, supercoin and darkcoin still not p2p, yet?

No, they are P2P, but the release does not give this as grounds for XC being the industry leader. The reason given for its position is a combination of:

(a) having successfully resolved technical challenges: avoiding blockchain bloat, avoiding semi-centralisation, being designed as a platform, and not encountering forking issues

(b) achieving the highest working level of anonymity due to its layered approach to privacy - TOR, end-to-end encrypted communication, fully decentralised xnodes, and multipath.

Heard through the grapevine a couple NFL players are on the XC rocket Shocked

I can confirm this rumour. Two professional NFL players are XC investors.

We'll release more information on this once their ability to speak on behalf of XC has been clarified.

Holy shit... this could be huge publicity for XC!

WOW... no words.

Yes, with the NFL preseason starting in August and ridiculous amounts of media coverage that the NFL commands are really second to none. Another factor is: the players are a close knit group, regardless of being on different teams they look out for each other, and they will definitely share good investment advice.

The untapped millions waiting to invest. Yum...
