Yes, we can help under the name of our new digital marketing agency but this sister company hasn't launched yet. Projected date for launch is 4th week of June. By that time, you can contact us to determine a strategic road map for you and a fee for these services. Some of these services will be free, just like issuing Gold Bars, some will require funding.

Will be soon.
Marketing and promotion is currently under development in silence, quite a huge plan will be released in many small/medium parts across the social media. COMM has a big potential, from hundreds of coins it was chosen and added to Bter.com market that is quite of achievement in crypto world. It will be soon noticed by many and already is by whales. Personally I'm buying more COMMs right now and I suggest every crypto investors to diversify some BTC into CommunityCoin when is still so cheap now. There is a finger on the red button and very soon will push it.

this coin started dying when you announced the 200M lost, i don't want to bring this shit again, but it's the truth..

it's so hard to make a backup of your wallet? you basically killed your own coin

if i'm a miner..i will certainly put my hashrate on Comm multipool when it come up,the optimum profit will occur only you can mine other coin to switch to more Comms when it is cheap..people now no interesting in blackcoin multipool anymore bc what they work have to buy expensive blackcoin,if some of you want to duplicate what blackcoin did before..this will be the best time to get involve with when our 2 skilled multipools get on line

I'm not saying it's a SCAM the other guy did, Just people have Lost Interest, if it was Giveaways and Mining at the same time not just Pure PoS and Payouts in COMM from multipools then that would of kept the interest instead of being one of the Lucky bunch or Double Dippers to get free coins which caused the problem in the first place.

good luck with "problem 2)" most miners don't hold anything, they will hold only if they think the value can increase (even that isn't really obvious).
We need to find a new fan base who would mine it, but again everybody is doing this expecting a profit.

A few suggestion when the pool is out (before that, will bring only comment from impatient users).
* New Thread (moderated this time to get rid of bad trolling) for when the pool is out here, sort of a rebirth of the comm
* A thread on the mining thread (I can do this)
* Several giveaway on Polo and other exchanges which do giveaway
* some PR action (and giveaway) on tweeter/subreddit/facebook

Basically, we need to do some noise around.


May-be an other suggestion regarding the pool: allow to pay one part of the mining profit in BTC (with a max value, say 25%) and the rest obviously in COMM.

Also, we need to mine new coins and do like every other pool owner, put an ad on every new coins telling we will mine this (assuming they are scheduled on an exchange).

As mentioned before, this is only a temporary measure. Rest assured that we are going to watch the improvements closely and reconsider adding it, even with more products and designs for COMM if everything goes well.
This had happened before in MemoryCoin v2.0. Now, the devteam divided into two. One is MemoryCoin v3.0 and other is LottoShares or something like that. That's why they are not still being listed at Coaex.
Besides, Coaex is getting stronger day-by-day. We have a sister company (will be announced at Bitcointalk, later on) which has been working collaboratively with us, for a while and they specialize in PR, digital marketing, brand management. It is managed by a team of experts that has multiple national (Turkey) and international awards. We have a mutual agreement - I, as the founder of Coaex, will be responsible for their project management in Turkey and that company's founder will be responsible for Coaex marketing.

As a cryptocoin enthusiast, I should share my personal views on COMM:
- Make an investment in your coin and don't let it die just like the others in the market.
- Analyze the root causes of problems, not only problems. Resolve them accordingly.
- Don't make radical changes at once. Create a massive plan for improvements, give them priorities and introduce them slowly.
- Unite, work together collaboratively, don't get separated as mentioned before in this post.

That's all I can say for now.

We have delisted COMM and removed COMM gold bars, as of today. This measure may be lifted depending on the improvements in the future.

PS: I have looked further on it and pools in the first proposal are completely impractical because the pool has no access to the PoS reward. The PoS reward is paid to the cold-minting address, whose balance can only be spent by the owner of the "spending key" which belongs to the "minting key". So the pool cannot even pay a "continous interest rate" (like you propose) to its clients and the owners of little balances would receive their reward exactly at the same time than if they choose a pool.

PS2: Thanks communitycoin for adding the proposal to the start page!

OK, makes sense, will give it a try. Although I think a thread would be better, but COMM forum seems closed.

----

The purpose of this message is to open a discussion for the development of a "cold-locked minting" feature - a way to make PoS minting nearly 100% secure, even for non-technical users.

Every interested user (developer or not) should participate in the discussion. I was talking with communitycoin "communicators" in May and if there is interest to implement this feature there will be a pretty attractive bounty for the developer(s). Also, it should have a very positive effect on COMM's reputation (and price ).

What is Cold-locked-minting about and why it's important?

Proof-of-Stake coins like COMM have a security problem which can affect mass adoption: When you have your coins in an online wallet to "mint" PoS coins the private key is often loaded into the computer's memory and therefore can be read by an attacker (e.g. with malware or through a backdoor). So in brief: If you are minting, your coins are not 100% safe, even if your wallet is encrypted. This is specially true if you have a large balance making you an attractive target for attacks.

Cold-locked-minting is a proposed feature which allows you to use the balance of a "cold wallet" (e.g. a wallet on an offline PC, an USB key or a paper wallet) to mint PoS coins using another wallet / client (the "hot wallet") which is connected to the internet. With this feature enabled, the private key of the "cold wallet" is never at risk, so your balance is safe.

With cold-locked minting also individuals with large balances worth thousands of dollars can participate safely in PoS minting. This is important as the security of a PoS coin depends on the participation of the coin holders. So cold-locked minting can increase greatly the security of the system.

How would cold-locked-minting work?

There are several proposals for now. Most come from the Peercoin (PPC) community. Peercoin is the base of most PoS coins, including COMM. Currently only NXT is testing a similar feature (which has some disadvantages, see below).

All proposals have in common that they provide a way to "associate" two wallets: a "cold wallet" and a "hot wallet" connected to the internet. The "hot wallet" can use the balance of the "cold wallet" for minting, but can not spend coins from the "cold wallet". The "association" is done with a special message type signed with the private key of the "cold wallet" (this message can be generated offline if you don't want to expose the private key).

What are potential dangers or problems with cold-locked minting?

A cold-locked minting implementation should not decrease the incentive to maintain the client online to support the network. This can be a problem specially if a cold-locked-minting implementation leads to "PoS minting pools", or wallets which receive the "right to mint" from several other wallets. This should be avoided, as these pools could theoretically accumulate enough coins for a 51%-PoS-attack, as it occurs actually with some mining pools in the PoW cryptocoin world.

So the implementation of cold-locked-minting should cointain a mechanism to prevent the formation of this kind of pools or limit its size (=accumulated coin-age), or alternatively not provide incentives for COMM holders to give the "right to mint" to a pool.

Would it benefit Communitycoin's value/price?

If Communitycoin community implements cold-locked-minting, it's pretty sure that it would have a positive effect on COMM's price, market cap, and above all, reputation, as it is an important feature which would make a real difference to other PPC/NVC-based PoS coins. It would allow very safe storage of coins without having to resign to the "PoS interest", so it would make COMM appropiate for big investments.

What are the actual proposals for cold-locked-minting?

The most important proposals at the moment are:

- The OP_COINSTAKE proposal of "sigmike": A special kind of address, "cold minting addresses", is created. These addresses have two private keys: a "spending" private key and a "minting" private key. People can add the "minting" private key to another wallet via a special message and this wallet can then use the balance of the "cold-minting address" to mint PoS coins. The main advantage is that there is no incentive to form "minting pools" as there is no possibility to accumulate the balances of more than one address as every "minting key" has its own coin-age.

- The "cold-locked transaction" proposal of PPC creator "Sunny King": A special transaction type is created that sends coins to another address that increase the balance of the target address but only allows these coins to be sent back to the original address (spending to other addresses with regular transactions is locked). So you can accumulate "balance" in your hot wallet that cannot be spent by an attacker and mint using its coin-age. With another transaction type you can send the coins back to the "cold address". This would allow the accumulation of coin-age and so would allow minting-pools with higher chances to get the reward.

- The "leased forging" feature of Nxt (currently being tested): It's similar to cold-locked transactions, but instead of having to send the "balance" back to the cold address to spend it, when you send the balance you must specify a duration of the "leasing process". After that time balance is sent back automatically. The disadvantage: Incentives to form "minting pools" (called "forging pools" in Nxt) are very high, as large accounts have advantages when minting.

Other proposals are listed here: http://www.peercointalk.org/index.php?topic=2467.msg22366#msg22366

In my opinion, the OP_COINSTAKE until now is the best proposal, as the incentive to send your minting key to a "pool" is very low and the implementation seems to be relatively easy. However, with the other proposals, it would be theoretically possible to implement a "limit" for accumulation of keys, e.g. if one wallet can only mint on behalf of one (or two, or three) another wallet(s), so it would not be practical to form "minting pools".

I'm interested! What must I do? How much is the bounty?

If you are a developer, you can start implementing it now (read the links above to get practical advices for implementation). But a period of discussion would be good as there should be a large consensus in COMM community to implement this feature.

As of the bounty: I have proposed one million COMM, which should be given away by the COMM devs (they have confirmed me that they would do it if the project progresses). Other COMM users can obviously enlarge this number by donations. If there is enough interest I or the devs can set up a donation address.

In order to attract the miners, I think should be set up some reward

I'm still in the community

Yeah, I laughed when it disappeared, good that I dumped their scamcoin for 0.4 BTC and ran immediately.

is the multipool ready? or near finished at least, because sell orders are winning, another week and we will reach the irreparable situation...

 so it is,  we should keep COMM  price rising each day . When will the mulitpools launch ?

Miners in which you need

you should add x13 for multipool

lol everyone here is waiting for the whales, so we can dump

actually i like the 30% interest, no other coin has this

Add anonymous transactions like Darkcoin so COMM would be a first PoS coin with that feature.
