Hello all. This is to announce that I have taken on the role of PR and media liaison for XC.
I'm co-ordinating the PR side of the project and developing a great strategy based on XC's brand (which, as you're probably aware, is currently being created by Thrash).
You'll be hearing a lot of news from us in the near future: we'll be unveiling the development plan, the team, and of course be building up a wave of public awareness about XC's market-leading tech. So stick around, and anticipate big things.

Please do us justice
We have been wronged for so long.
You might want to start with a better and more descriptive name for your coin. Previous 'X11Coin' name made it too clear that this coin was a ripoff from Darkcoin. Then it became XC, which is quite meaningless and random. What about 'Darkcoin Lite'?
Very inspirational.
Time and Again this has been brought up, and the community has overwhelmingly decided that XC was the right decision.
People want to get stuck on shitcoinname1 and whatevercoin2.
XC is more than a coin -it is a platform under development that encompasses more than "anyothercopycatcoin" and keeping "coin" out of the name was one of the best decisions that the community made.
The thing about names is that they only signify to the imagination the first few times your hear it. After that they just represent your experience of the entity with the name, not whatever the name itself might suggest. XC, as you'll all know by now, signifies market-leading cryptographic tech. That's pretty much all there is to it.
Combined with dev's update, ur participation in the team is also great news! Can you share with us maybe a bit of ur work in public or pm(out of curiosity), since you appear very knowledgeable of the scene!
btw a couple of troll replies above is EXACTLY the reason I suggested Tesla keeps this topic strictly moderated, we got 2 replies of good news and 3-4 trollers come posting. This HAS to stop.
That is really cool congrats!
May I ask what is your background in Marketing?
My background is mostly PR rather than strictly marketing. That, and academic anthropology, which is like the metaphysics of marketing. But I have extensive experience in the magazine and music industries. Promoting tours for international bands, facilitating the creation of music scenes, launching publications, creating an ad niche for advertisers, that sort of thing. Generally what I do is create a compelling narrative around a brand, that serves to embody the facts about it, demonstrate why it's important, and keep misconstruals at bay. I'm sure you'll all agree that this is what XC needs, given the FUD it's endured.
