G'day my fellow cryptoerssss!

Just had a radical idea, one that I believe could potentially bring a trend to this community and its surroundings. I am an avid gamer, especially with MMO's. I run a guild in Guild wars 2, and while working on its website a second ago, I thought about something.

I want to get a coin endorsement for a means of recruitment and rewarding my in-game guild. What I am aiming/thinking is finding a coin that has a dedicated team, and, for potential newcomers to this scene, set a good example. I would like to set up a wallet for this coin, and hold a balance of it. What I would do is use it as a means of recruitment messaging to attract new people to the guild and at the same time, getting them involved into this world. I would add a sticky post in the forum, detailing how to set up the wallet, use the coin, and other various means of getting the coin, such as partaking in guild activities, promotion of the guild, and mining, to name a few.

If there are any developers out there that would like to get involved in this experiment, please let me know. I think this could be a good motivator for not only the teammates in-game, but also for the coin itself and crypto in general.

You can PM me, or drop a message here if you are interested. Also, you don't have to be a developer to help this. If there is a community reach-out that want their coin of choice to be my guilds mascot, speak your mind! ;D

There's a coin called Minerals, it started as a coin for the StarCraft community but has since changed its goal for eSports in general (although it's still working primary towards SC).
It had the fairest distribution of all alt-coins to this date (it's PoS now), very active and has a good community behind it.
It already has a few big streamers from the SC2 (Dimaga, Ret) community using it.

The thread to the topic: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=641057.0

You should talk to MineralsPR (he's the community's liaison) and he will probably donate some Minerals to start you off.

Great, will have a look, and definitely consider it! Thanks :D

For those that are wondering why I just dont create my own coin, I feel it would be a waste of time and look horrible as there are hundreds of coins out there. I am sure someone will want to join me on this :)

There has got to be a coin developer out there with the need for advertisement! I dont care what coin it is, I just need something to use here.

Easy choice, XC / XCurrency has the most professional & qualified team of any altcoin, by far.

The team:
http://www.xc-official.com/the-xc-team/
Lead developer: Dan Metcalf (linkedin: http://www.linkedin.com/pub/dan-metcalf/12/1a8/b82)

Minerals is the obvious choice as has already been explained. XC most likely won't be interested as they are going for more of an alternate to fiat type thing. Never say never, but Minerals dev team are actually making a coin based around gaming. Just makes more sense to go that way. Ymmv.

Great idea!!
I would also suggest XC since it's a stable, rising currency.
If you choose XC, I would be happy to donate 20 XCs to your guild wallet to start with.  ;)
PM me if you can make it happen.

MINERALS!!! get in touch with @MineralsPr their a great team and very trustworthy ! Minerals will be the leading coin in gaming if there ever will be one so don't go choosing some garbage coin when the minerals team will be glad to work with you, keep me posted ,ill donate when its getting together ;)

I agree, if Minerals_dev agree too, he will create an address for you (with some coins from his budget and coins from the comunity, including me of course). Lets wait until dev answer (comunity and investors will follow him).

A+

Happy to donate my Mineral for this project 

 I will also donate Minerals into this ;D . Please give a link to your website and guild.

Coin2 is a longterm project and they will be coming out with their own first person shooter game within the next few weeks. Check them out, they're constantly working on the project and you can reach them easily any day.

Agreed, coin2 would be a perfect fit and has a good Dev team and active community behind it. Check it out.

Just to add, it's easy to create an address and donate a few coins to a project but the real issue is in the ability of the devs to provide the vision and technical assistance with the interface between the coin and the game. Coin2 already have this interface and devs experienced in it as this is why coin2 was created. I'm confident they will be able to provide you with all the assistance you could possibly require.

Sounds interesting mistercoin.

It has to be Coin2. This is what Coin2 is all about. We're already working on a similar concept and our own FPS is currently under development.

If you want to PM me I can give you any information you need to help you bring your vision to fruition.

I can do that today.

Hmm, sound interesting. I seem to be stuch between XC, Coin2 and Minerals. I would like to have a system on my site that could automatically send out the (x)coin to the guild mates wallet when I record an achievment or they have done something to get some. But if not, would a public ledger as  well as a public address, and public record of all of the coins usage and reason for that usage sound alright?

Another few ideas I have, are things like, exchanging (X) amount of (X)coin for in-game gold, excanghing X amoutn of the coin for draws into prizes (In game or otherwise). And if you guys have some ideas that would be motivating to our guild, and towards the game and other games that follow in general, let me know! ;D

If you want to PM me your Skype info you can chat face to face with our main dev, thrash out the details and get the ball rolling.

PM sent friend.

Myriadcoin old friend. Thats all i have to say :D

We postponed launch, we are still working out some things with the percentage Payouts,..

I am co-dev, I figured I would throw this out there and see if your interested,..

DM me if you would like to know more,..

honestly if you don't go with minerals you have no idea what your doing . people like digma and crayon are endorsing minerals and will be the main gamer currency... you want your guild to have a currency that all gamers want. go check the thread again and read @crayon s post.. good luck with your guild ! hope you go with minerals!

if you don't know who crayon and digma are look them up... tournament gamers.. streamers..

I would love to go with minerals. But, will I be able to get enough donations from them and others to get this thing off the ground? I really don't need much. I will look into it and post on the minerals main thread. ;D

Franko or Aiden would be good for those. Both are highly affordable and will be maintained.

The minerals community just roughly donated $1000 to get the first tournament started, so ...

Went with minerals :) https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=705995.new#new

Disappointed you chose minerals, I still believe that coins2 would have been a better long term choice and the community would have assisted with currency. However I wish you and your game well and hope it all works out for you. If not pm me and I'll see what I can do to assist.

BLACK DRAGON COIN!!!!!!!   https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=597006.0 .         

I would have gone with this one as well. You could buy up a whole bunch now really cheap and then pump the coin with your game. Easily get 500% return or more. Furthermore, BDC is a RPG base coin. What better for an MMO game?
