Masculinity Research announces the launch of Masculinity Coin (MASC), the cryptocurrency for men.

Masculinity Coin is an ERC20 token digital asset built upon the Ethereum blockchain.

Masculinity Research Director Dr Joseph Gelfer said, “part cryptocurrency, part thinking tool, part art project, holding and trading of Masculinity Coin can be interpreted as either a celebration or critique of traditional masculinity.”

Masculinity Coin draws attention to the masculine nature of the technological culture driving the rise in cryptocurrencies. Masculinity Coin also highlights a structural commonality between masculinity and cryptocurrencies: the meaning and value of both are based upon an ever-shifting social consensus.

“No other cryptocurrency simultaneously operates on such different levels as Masculinity Coin. It is both a tradable coin and a catalyst for exploring personal identity. Masculinity Coin aims to decentralize masculinity as part of a more sustainable future,” Gelfer said.

So only men can have this coin, or also manly/masculine women ?!
hahaa
Will keep an eye on this...

Of course, anyone who feels compelled can purchase MASC: man, woman or those who resist categorization :)

You can purchase 1 MASC by sending US$1 worth of ETH (or multiples thereof) to the following address (using an ether wallet that can accept ERC20 tokens): 0x50463fAc7cdB831A46B6c591029551BB345480fB  ::)
price US$1 in ETH and BTC  :o

IMO ICOs should be banned or have their own forum section. Especially shitty cashgrabs like this one.

While I agree with Men's Rights activists this is just dumb.

Here's a write-up of Masculinity Coin over at Cryptoking: https://cryptoking.org/the-anti-cryptocurrency-masculinity-coin/ (https://cryptoking.org/the-anti-cryptocurrency-masculinity-coin/)

another unique coin  ;D masculinity coin, i hope for the next there are feminim coin.
success for your project sir i will waiting for bounty program.

I think that you have in stock a coin of femininity, childishness, transgenderity, homosexuality .... a good start. Feminists do not exactly support you. Nominal men, too. Do not so push out your masculinity, there will be someone more courageous who will not like it.

Actually, WomenCoin already exists: https://www.women-coin.com/ (https://www.women-coin.com/)

The website is stereotypically very pink ;)

Don't fool your self, ok this fórum 90% of the users are menos, 5% are guys pretending yo be a woman, and only 1% are woman, the other 4% maybe are Apache helicopters

Intriguingly, the politics of Masculinity Coin appear to be in the eye of the beholder. A commenter above sees Masculinity Coin as about men’s rights, whereas the following commentary sees it as pro-feminist: https://steemit.com/cryptocurrency/@secret-guru/cryptocurrency-goes-pro-feminism-with-masculinity-coin (https://steemit.com/cryptocurrency/@secret-guru/cryptocurrency-goes-pro-feminism-with-masculinity-coin)

On further investigation there is also a LGBTQoin: https://wallet.lgbtqoin.org/ (https://wallet.lgbtqoin.org/)

There is currently a block of 1000 MASC for sale at a significant discount on Decentrex:

this is a coin with a very unique concept, I'm very curious about the progress of this project, so far the progress of this thread is good enough, hopefully run well as planned

Unique concept are serious about this from my point of view this really funny thing when someone come with specific gender blockchain is a global platform where everyone has equal chance to grow. I don't think this project has future and could survive in long term.

This is actually a very interesting point. Note the original description of the coin reads, “Masculinity Coin draws attention to the masculine nature of the technological culture driving the rise in cryptocurrencies.” In principle, your point that “everyone has equal chance to grow” is absolutely correct; in practice, there appears to be little gender balance using the platform or across the crypto-culture. Masculinity Coin surfaces this very issue.

Of course, given also that “Masculinity Coin can be interpreted as either a celebration or critique of traditional masculinity” people can view it in different ways, as discussed earlier in the thread. The fact that we are having this conversation demonstrates the success of Masculinity Coin as a thinking tool, if nothing else.

I noticed that this is an ANN" i read that word in the title of the thread" but where is the ANN? i found this here on bitcointalk and i most certainly will not leave this website to go floundering on other websites in hopes of trying to understand something that should be written HERE IN THIS A N N

probably your estimation for as well is correct i think most of us here are men and there's someone who also pretending to be a women, this new project
is so unique and i think if there's really a good roadmap that it will provided and everything run smoothly maybe success will follow. but still it depends
if how community will followed.

BTC = for men
this coin = for kids

Again, kind of proving the premise of Masculinity Coin that cryptos are a masculine domain ;)

These parody coins are quite funny and my become a novelty, you buy them because you're rich enough to waste your money.

FUCK and TROLL are the best, you can't compete with those.

I would argue that it is not a parody coin, rather it has functions beyond simple trading that make it appear unusual (and then busy minds morph "unusual" into "parody").

Of if you prefer EtherDelta, a similar discount offer can be found there:

Best wishes for your future.To give real service, you must add something which cannot be bought or measured with money, and that is sincerity and integrity.Loved the name.

This coin will be real or just a joke ?  because of the description of a bad impression, technology and developed for all and this project is kind that focusing only on man

Certainly, it is real. Here is the record on Etherscan: https://etherscan.io/token/0x84abbb6fde5d95771a8115d90d99c4a587143c07n (https://etherscan.io/token/0x84abbb6fde5d95771a8115d90d99c4a587143c07)

You can buy it right now. Is that not real?  :)

Floyd Mayweather's continued presence in the ICO space [https://cointelegraph.com/news/boxing-champion-floyd-mayweather-promotes-yet-another-ico (https://cointelegraph.com/news/boxing-champion-floyd-mayweather-promotes-yet-another-ico)] suggests that indicators of traditional masculinity (in this case, boxing) are a clear attraction.

This is one of the themes suggested by Masculinity Coin: http://www.masculinityresearch.com/masculinity-coin/ (http://www.masculinityresearch.com/masculinity-coin/)
