It's good to see KOBO back again and with a new focus. This is a solid coin with a good dev and has the potential to go far. Good work... ;D

Thanks  :D

KOBO has matured over the last year. We've survived the stormy seas and we keep moving forward. I've always seen companies like UBER, Skype and Pegasystems (google it) as role models for Kobocoin. No big splash, or explosive growth, just gradual progress over the years with value added services brought in for users. Kobocoin will be a robust crypto platform for use in the biggest mobile market in the world.

The website has been updated to give KOBO specific details of how to tip users (rather than the generic coinwalletco page). This should make it easier for people new to crypto to understand.

View it here: http://kobocoin.com/Tipbot.html

I've done some initial testing and now exported all 1200+ @Kobocoindev followers into a spreadsheet. I've formulated the following tweet to go out to all of them:

Code:
@CoinWalletco tip @follower KOBO 100 - You have just been tipped 100 KOBO. Pick it up and start tipping today! http://goo.gl/SrAVQ7

The short URL in the tweet (http://goo.gl/SrAVQ7) also takes users to the kobo tipbot page.

Any comments appreciated

All twitter followers have been exported and the tweets compiled into a single text file.

There's a total of 1277 followers as of 23:00 GMT, 11th March, 2016.

Tweet command is

Code:
@CoinWalletco tip @xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx KOBO 500 - #Kobocoin has tipped you 500 KOBO. Pick it up and start tipping today! http://goo.gl/SrAVQ7

This tweet allows for the longest twitter name to be used without going over the limit

I will be tweeting to every single follower as I've confirmed that any unclaimed tips can be cancelled. I've increased the tip to 500 KOBO as I doubt the conversion rate will be 100% (I'm thinking 15% - 20% conversion rate is acceptable).
