Barabas-You are one crazy SOB with crazy and not so crazy comments, but you're probably a riot to hang with. Cheers!

I am not crazy. Angry doesn't = crazy. Since many of you do not have kids I will use another example. If someone posted a picture of your mother and put a derogatory comment along with the picture, how would you feel? How would you react? Now multiply that emotion by 10 and you will know how I felt when someone did that to my daughter who is only 15 and has nothing to do with this.
Carry on...
Can we have IconicExpert's comment deleted censors?  There is absolutely no need to delete IE's comment here. He makes a very valid point. +1 to the kids (trolls), yo momma. Back to business, that coin rising is interesting. Seems coincidentally timed with the fall-out, purely business or lost faith? It was a coordinated pump but my curiosity is with Mintpal. |

I want to express that I still think splitting the community was irrational and unwise. If moderation was needed, this could've been done via the closed thread and rather fairly but that's water under the bridge now.
Let's take notice that since the start of these threads, the boy bashing has somewhat ceded and most have been very courteous and cordial. I applaud both sides for that and that my fellow members, is a sign of leadership/trust building.
I still believe both communities can and will work in parallel towards a common cause, common ground and my ultimate goal as a BC member is to see light at the end of the tunnel, a return of unity between forums. Despite egos, agendas, and outcome. It may seem far fetched now, but not when BC can hit $10. Never say never, that's one of life's truths.
I will continue to be a part of both forums, albeit silly, for BC and view all things neutrally without fomenting hate. That is standard protocol, the dust will settle and we should be moving to greener pastures.

To be crystal clear, I don't know who Iconic is referring to, but I did privately ask him about my BC Card and I suggested to him publicly in the now-closed forum that he ships out all the cards. What I failed to realize is that I ordered from the second batch (not Limited Edition) and he made clear in previous posts that the second batch will ship at a later date. With that said, I don't know if anyone who ordered the Limited Edition first batch still hasn't received or will still receive.
I will reserve judgment until I get/not get my BC card. Until then, conclusions and speculations can't and shouldn't be made.
A lot is transpiring, splitting of community with some torn in the middle, Project Wall St. and Project PR Firm, BC Cards. Let's all let the dust settle a little, for sake of not growing a few extra gray hairs and not to break our keyboards in anger. For me, it's not that serious but the lack of cohesion and unwillingness to coexist just has me intrigued on all fronts, who is really behind this coin?
You think in politics, everyone likes each other, do you like everyone at your job, do you like some of your classmates? The answer is an infinite no, but you figure it out because you have to or because you see the big picture. Successful and genuine people see this.
I think Iconic toning it down and now focusing on Marketing and PR here, which he seems to be doing and I sincerely hope he continues, is a good first step.

In my life, I've been presented with many situations that forced a new beginning. Sometimes not in my favor.
This is a good new beginning and in our (BC) favor.

I would like to thank all members (Maarx, MoriTori, Digicidal, Dzimbeck, Brammien, etc) who have since given courteous and professional responses, while providing more details. You have electronically restored some of my faith in this community. More constructive steps need to be taken so I hope that this BC Team and Iconic (and I sincerely hope both) can fulfill their goals and promises, fair and just.
I encourage members to read all current and impending posts with an open mind. Be subjective and choose your path, but with neutrality and not to enflame tensions. It serves in our best interests to be the strongest community in the TOP 10.
As for the rest of you that continue to post heedlessly without discretion, needing attention like 'The Kardashians', you are only fueling your demise and possible future banning. You can create new rogue accounts, but are those your attainable goals in life? I pity you for wasting yours and everyone else's time when you could be making money to accumulate more BC or find a cure for cancer. Either way, you could've won, but won't.
Keep in mind, if crypto was to be regulated or laws/protocols to be enforced, they (governments, NSA, IRS) will have the capacity to link wallets to indentities, IP's, traffic, etc. and they can use offenders to be made an example of. If you think government think tanks haven't already played out this scenario, then you fail to realize that our governments are older than us, will always find a way to make-take money, and will use anyone/anything for a scapegoat. It would not be beneficial to anyone to have ambitions none other than genuine for BC. On the other hand, the perceived value of BC could be a game changer so imagine the worth? You can't stop a few things-the will of people to fight tyranny and oppression, computers, and money/barter.
So my question to everyone is.......do you want to be on the right side of history, pass this story down to your kids, and be a part of a revolution?

I’m appalled and embarrassed by the current, deplorable state of this community. Some of you continue to respond like children by publicly lynching each other. Let me be clear that if some of you were truly successful and professional adults, you wouldn’t be addressing others the way you do here and we will not garner the respect of current members, potential BC believers, and competitors, ever. So that leads me to two conclusions, your holdings are miniscule or your maturity level/true age is 8. Your posts are like your fingerprints, so think the process through and realize how ridiculous some of your posts will look in 1mth-5yrs from now, when everyone can verify your past posts. My question is if Iconic gives proof, will this war end? If he doesn’t, will this war end? No, because some of you are beating a dead horse and continue to fail to see the big picture, which also means, some of you are just spectators with a useless opinion. STOP! The truth will be revealed soon who is on the wrong side of the stick and guess what, it will have ripple effects across the whole community. Foundation- I’m neutral because I care about BC, not a side or their entourages. I like Project PR Firm and want to believe that your intentions are genuine. So I ask that you allay these concerns, not for me, but for everyone else, for peace of mind and confidence. Your true intentions will surface very soon so you can either address them now or create this unnecessary doubt and propaganda war for the time being. 1) I will repeat that unless 'The Foundation' justifiably consists of the creator(s)/developer(s) of BC (and that would need to be proven), then a foundation would only be viewed as legitimate if elected democratically by the community or else be viewed as invalid and unethical. So I ask for full disclousure of user names for all that represents ‘The Foundation’ because if you’re intentions are in fact genuine, then I don’t see a reason why this can’t be divulged. 2) If you are merely a group of investors, then you are just investors and therefore, equal to this community and all of what's to come. How did you self appoint this group, titles, responsibilities? Are you a group of friends, privileged few with large stakes, or genuinely here for us, BC, and the moon? 3) For sake of business, I agree you can't always be fully transparent because procedures need time, negotiation, and confirmation. So for transparency that can't be disputed, what are your intentions and business credentials? Let's talk business model? What is your 6mth plan, 1yr plan, and ultimate goal for BC? Common practice for you to convince any financial institutions of this. We are all ‘The Bank’ 5) You are unofficially taking an oath to ambassadorship of BC, thick and thin so are you prepared to take that oath and represent current and future members of BC? There are seasoned and talented members of this community that would have gladly lent their services and expertise and with no obligation so where was their memo, invite, or inquiry to recommendation? 6) I believe both Project Wall St and Project PR Firm should would parallel to each other and in unison so continue with our merry projects, throwing no fire, together or independent? We are working for a common cause. Iconic While your actions and posts can be trivial, no one can deny your effort and enthusiasm for this coin. But the name dropping and negativity has to go for your sake and BC. Honor refund requests, ship out your cards, and more importantly, no more accusations, real or not. The truth is, if you are scamming via BlackCoin Card/PR Firm/spreading FUD, you will lose all respect within this community in a interweb minute and your reputation be forever tarnished. I remember reading a post how you admitted you had a big ego, for your sake, it needs to come back to earth a little. All successful people have at one point or another, failed. So my question to you is, how will you proceed? Your posts have been counterproduct, which is a stark contrast of the previous you according to everyone here. This is by no means an attack or interrogation on anyone but legitimate concerns from a true BC member. We don't need to become martyrs or be polarized by ideology. There is no right or wrong if you chose a side, but we are all at the end of the day a community. Democrat vs. Republican, black vs. white, BMW vs. Audi, house vs. condo, straight or gay, we can coexist. We are unintentionally dividing this community. Why are we not joining forces to tackle this inevitable rise of a conglomerate called BC? The enemy of our enemy is our friend. We face an unorthodox combination of enemies. Trolls, whales, and altcoin developers looking to clone BC copy our every move so that they can take a piece of our pie. We need to take this seriously and let this absorb for a minute and think of what we can do to counter that together. If we don’t fix this, it will never end. I’m about beginnings. The beginning of crypto, the beginning of a real community, the beginning of prosperity. I hope you will see the silver lining in this so we can grow together. Sincerely, BC Believer |

+1 on Brammien and Jabulon thoughts
Brammien-User ARPFlush created our LinkedIn and Pinterest pages last week and I started Instagram last Wednesday, @BlackCoinOfficial. This is unbiased, and purely natural, as a social media outlet to reach the masses. Utilizing members pictures, memes, lifestyle images, and news updates are all I'm posting. I'm systematically using the same hashtags, posting almost daily, and my 6mth goal is 5k-6k followers. 1 year, I want 10k because as crypto grows, so will number of followers but the crypto community is minute compared to world population standards. The reason I took ownership of this is following the recent negativity, tug of war, miscommunication, and reading between the lines, I felt the need to do my part and get us back on track to productivity, you can validate this in my post history. Interestingly, we have hundreds of members here and 1k+ members at Reddit, and I'm currently at 16 followers. To my dismay, my Reddit post was up voted 12x and down voted 5x. Why even a down vote? The funny kids of the world wide web (what I call trolls because successful, professional adults do not address others in a manner that some do here on these forums nor would you advocate anything negative).
We would need confirmation from ARPFlush but I'm independent of the so-called 'Foundation'. Call us believers of BC and/or protectors of our investment, I'm doing my due diligence . I can't find the admin to our 'Facebook' page although this is instrumental to maintain/market as well. Who manages the Twitter account?

Soepkip-I don't know who the 'Foundation' consists of or how you came to be (forgive me for being ignorant as I'm relatively new), but I think your PR Firm idea is great, foraying into unchartered territory that could have short or long term ramifications. Please note that some of us have undertaken some PR initiatives this past week (IE-LinkedIn, Pinterest, Instagram) and I think the services of this PR firm can be more selective and therefore, more cost-efficient. I'm always weighing cost vs. reward and there are extremely talented people on this forum that would freely lend their services, no obligations. I will express my concern that if a 'Foundation' were to exist, it should naturally consist of just the creator(s)/developer(s) of BC (which would need to be proven)or else, they would need to be elected democratically by the community or else it would be viewed as self-proclaimed and therefore, illegitimate. If I'm wrong or don't have all my facts straight, please let me know. I know you've done plenty and you're respected by many.
Iconic-You don't need to defend yourself against counterproductive posts. Even if trivial to some, your drive and efforts far outweighs the useless feedback of some, who've done nothing other than to type on a keyboard. Keep up with your efforts, you have the support of most.
Krokie-It's strongly suggested that you shouldn't start your first few posts on this forum by attacking others, you will display no honor and credibility when everyone can refer to all your past posts. Please respect those that have been here from the beginning, despite your reservations).
I also ask that the 'BURN' memes stop being posted. It is unprofessional and instigation that only serves as a factor to keep others wary of investing in BC. If you actually care about your holdings, you'll take that into consideration. If you're a waste of space, we'll know soon enough.
I'm by no means anyone special or a defender or anyone or anything. I'm a believer of BC, I believe that that the sum of our parts far outweigh the negative energy of a few. Let me reiterate that we are the BC community. Project Wall St and Project PR Firm should be viewed as a two pronged approach. There should be no bipartisan politics or meaningless competition. They should work in unison and is towards a common cause. I think some of us are missing the BIG PICTURE. Donate to which you see fit or donate to both if you're a true BC believer. We will make mistakes, but we will learn together. Let's continue to take dreams to fruition.
Let's keep trending

I think people are pulling out of Blackcoin because the big growth is over and done.
Whitecoin is moving. And PoS ends like what in 3 hrs.
BC lovers say WC sucks, it's nothing but a copy coin.
I'm moving into WC. I hope it copies BC verbatim. 1200 to 50000.
That my friends is MONEY!
i wanted bump some funny BC hater ^^. He is sitting with WC 3m bag @1200. Blackmagic ^^.  No use in dwelling in the past, some people can make faulty and clouded decisions when it comes to investment.....and love lol. Strato can come back to BC because BC doesn't discriminate but if it was all along, malicious, we'll always know his position now. Hilarious meme though Subtuppel |

There is no doubt in my mind that us coming together as a community, putting forth plans that are gaining traction will garner attention and cause an UPWARD TREND. This is not vital for just BC, but for crypto currency and our children's futures as well.
It's nice to see BC in the green while the majority of the Top 10 is in the red. BC pride at it's best! Investors, joe schmoe's, kids, are taking notice of our price resistance, efficiency, POS, trendsetting ways, discipline, strength as a unit, and that my friends, are the pillars of BC.
So a snapshot:
Vault of Satoshi
BC Telecast yesterday with more being planned
Black Coin Card
Project Wall St *PLEASE DONATE TO A COMMON CAUSE, WE'RE OVER A 1/3 WAY THERE. WORST CASE, YOU LOSE A FEW BC FOR WHAT YOU BELIEVE IN. AVERAGE TO BEST CASE, YOU'RE TALLER WHEN YOU STAND ON YOUR WALLET. DOES THIS NEED ANY MORE EXPLANATION? I DON'T KNOW ABOUT YOU BUT I WANT TO BE 16 FEET TALL*
LinkedIn Page (launched) *PLEASE FOLLOW*
Instagram Page (launched) *PLEASE FOLLOW*
Pinterest (launch TBD)
Facebook Page (Request to transition to business page? Admin?)
Iconic Expert's Agenda/Ideas put forth today *PLEASE READ AND CHIME IN*
Talented members bringing a mastery of their craft for the common cause of BC
Press on BC on IBTimes.Co.Uk (Press is always good press because BTC is always in good and bad news)
-> among other developments
Very interesting what's transpired this week and what lays ahead, this is just the beginning......
Let's continue trending

@Blackcoinofficial
+1 I like this and have changed our Instagram to this. Far better than my @BlackCoinCrypto. Thank you EDU |

- Pinterest already has a user "Blackcoin", but the page is empty. Any other propositions for a username?
- I was forced to use this for Instagram since BlackCoin was already taken. It would work in parallel but that's your call since you're creating. Thoughts? |

This is imperative. I've been utilizing #blackcoin #bc #bitcoin #btc #bclife #moon #pos #crypto. These social media approaches need to all work in tandem as a web of information educating the masses of our benefits as a mainstream currency.
We need to be trending
I am glad you came on board and are helping! Hopefully the recent contributions of others will inspire more people to want to help. PS: I will be posting my pan shortly. Please feel free to add and/or edit... Thank you IE. It's nice have support and see plans/goals coming to fruition. No doubt that us coming together as a community and having a common vision will contribute to ATTENTION & UPWARD TREND. Looking forward to your agenda proposal. ARPflush-I am and sure others as well are grateful for the LinkedIn page you created and from a professional/logistical standpoint, this is gospel. I'm now following. BC Community-If you have an Instagram account, please follow @BlackCoinCrypto. I will continue to grow our audience but this starts with us. In my experience, once you hit the first 600 followers, things begin to snowball and the olive branch grows. I can't wait to get my BC Card so I can shoot photo's of everyday people like us using the card for everyday purposes. I need you to follow to fuel the jet. More work to do guys, this is just the beginning..... |

How about a professional business marketing plan! I know you talked about it earlier but Blackcoin really needs this. Blackcoin is on: Facebook: but the page is a community page, not an official fan page > We need sponsored FB posts and Ads. Twitter: is @coinblack the official Twitter account? Then the user should follow more (targeted) people and post more investment tips regarding to Blackcoin for unaware users, using trending investment hashtags. (like #forex). Reddit: Tops! Blackcoin should also be on Google, Pinterest and Linkedin. And we also need an official blog with articles that target our main keywords (bitcoin, blackcoin, investing, ...). People mostly google "bitcoin". We should have a Blackcoin blogpage that has "bitcoin" as main keyword  If you need people, I can startup, a business LinkedIn page and a Pinterest page. I know how to market them, (including the Facebook Ads that I'm willing to sponsor) it's part of my daily job  We also need a professional tagline btw. My 2 cents [/quote] Agreed +1 [/quote] This is imperative. I've been utilizing #blackcoin #bc #bitcoin #btc #bclife #moon #pos #crypto. These social media approaches need to all work in tandem as a web of information educating the masses of our benefits as a mainstream currency. We need to be trending |

Lets Be More Proactive
I will share on prive i don't want open public some ideas
to get others advantage of stealing idea.
I'm on the fence here. While I believe in open sourced discussion and sharing of ideas, I'm almost certain other altcoin dev/followers are looking to our forum for ideas to try to undercut us. Think of the mentality of a discerning few that feel entitled and knock off everything off as soon as a product or idea hits the shelves. No integrity or ingenuity but they don't care. People can say competition is healthy but I believe you always think and stay 10 steps ahead or you'll become obsolete (IE-RIM/Blackberry) Why give them privilege? There's got to be a way.... |

My situation:
I bought in and held BC since 1000 SAT. Call it faith, call it a dream, I call it manifest destiny.
My resolve:
Let's ignore the fluff and focus on all good things BC. Us true BC believers, myself included, need to gel and be one virtual unit! Cutting edge ideas, a vision, execution, and a stroke of luck will lead us to the mainstream. Let's keep pushing forward my fellow Blackcoinites.

Iconic-My BC Card payment has been sent.
What's a $20 investment when it's contents can be worth far more in perceived value over time? Think about that.
Most of us pay more in quarterly interest via our Visa, Mastercard, Discover's.
If possible, I would like the LE version because like they say, we eat with our eyes first. Looking forward to receiving it!
