I was going to suggest the next goal should be to try to get on Cryptsy. I guess that goal was achieved pretty easily... nice. It didn't even require tons of voting over weeks like some coins.

A small-medium sized exchange, such as poloniex, would be good for the coin, I think. Miners do need a place to sell, and without volume, both miners + ipo people will end up piling orders on super small exchanges. Biitrex is fine to start with, but no coin just wants to live there too long.

Plus side for poloniex is that the dev can do a giveaway there too, if he wants. And do chatbox stuff. I also suggest cryptosandwich if he wants to do more twitter types of giveaways/promotion.

Not really... just a combination of trolls making people a bit nervous, and some dumps. It's to be expected this early on. The coins will need to get redistributed a lot, for the coin to move up, so it's not surprising. If the coin ever gets to 1000+, I expect very few of the original stakeholders to even have their coins anymore.

That said, the dev should release a proper distribution list, just to give less ammunition to trolls. I expect their main goal is to lower the price (notice trolling occurs mostly after a pump?) ... to buy in, then wait for higher price, sell... and repeat process.

There will be those who didn't receive stakes or have sour grapes about selling early, and they'll join in with the fud too.

The best thing people can do is simply focus on what needs to be done next. More publicity, a marketplace, coinpayments, cryptsy, etc.

Posts like this should be expected for a while, as those who didn't get stakes, 2nd stakes, or just have sour grapes about selling at super cheap prices, will complain. It's human nature.

There isn't enough volume in the coin right now for the dev, or anyone, to dump tons of coins. Use common sense. And no sane dev would dump on the 2nd day as soon as a coin just starts on a major exchange.

No, not really.

I won't even speak of the merits, or lack thereof, for the coin. But that has to be one of the worst coin logos around. A coin geared towards entertainment, movies and films, and it has a bizarre cartoon dolphin who looks like it belongs in some bad anime?

Since they evidently have been around a while, I assume some people knew of them. I just find the amount that the IPO has taken in, at this speed, really somewhat odd.

Maybe a lot of their IPO money came from outsiders, which would explain things better. I just prefer more clarity (and time) before making investments. And yeah, I expect the Ethereum people are watching and drooling at the numbers...

I thought you were quoting the father in A Christmas Story there for a moment.

Anyway, although MaidSafe does appear real, and they have all the devs/employees listed upon their website, the way the IPO was carried out does seem very peculiar. A LOT of money was put into this IPO, with very little (like no) pre-announcement, little fanfare and very little in the way of buildup. It did feel almost like someone put up a random IPO post, and cash just flew their way.

Unlike something like Ethereum, which most here have heard of, I am not sure if many heard of MaidSafe before. When I first saw the thread title, I thought... oh no... a coin for hiring cleaning workers...

It'll be interesting to see where this goes.  I'm too poor and skeptical to invest, but I really hope it's not a scam, as it's not like we need more of those.

Potentially interesting coin ... giveaways are always good.

A marketplace would be very useful. I think the first step would be to get accepted onto coinpayments.

After that, we can contact existing marketplaces and ask them to accept communitycoin. I believe the Noble coin dev said at some point he'll open up his marketplace to accept other cryptos besides Noble/BTC, so that can be a start.

Eventually a unique comm marketplace should be the goal. I sort of like what Noble has done, with amazon gift cards, steam cards, and now gold/silver. At the very least, gift cards would be useful, as to many people, amazon money is sort of like cashing out coin to fiat. They sell basically everything.

Well, one way or another we'll find out what is left. 80M may make more sense than 10M does.

And their accepted/rejected lists are hardly optimal or accurate looking, so they need to release a finalized list at some point.

I don't have a problem with people asking for clarification. I am just annoyed by constant trolling, where those who post nonstop have ulterior motives.

Actually the thing is, the reason people don't care is that they are adults and have the patience to wait until the coins are distributed before complaining. They also don't post nonstop like a troll.

And saying you are posting nonstop due to altruistic reasons, caring about people... let's just say I believe the worst scammers in this forum over a statement like that.

By third round, I am referring to the reconsideration thing on the first page.

If 10M, it does seem like it should be more, or more were given to the 2nd group.

I guess waiting until the reconsideration stage starts is too much to ask?

If you don't provide a reason for your nonstop posting, people will assume logical reasons, such as wanting cheap coins.

Again, asked you why you have been posting, but you avoid the questions:

I think 470 people were claimed for the 1st go-around?

470 + 283 = 753

What percentage of that 283 didn't get stakes? Or is that the list of who got 2nd stakes?

At 800M, 753M given out would seem about right, with a 3rd round still left to go.

Was it on one of the older threads? I can't find it listed.

I believe Majormax is the person who handles most forum stuff now, so maybe PM him?
Distribution is not even over, as has been mentioned many times. What did you expect, an answer right away, before the coins are all given out?

And since you are so keen on wanting immediate answers, maybe answer some of mine?

I may be wrong, but believe the lost coins issue has been fixed with the new wallet. And there is no way anyone could dump 200M or more on the marketplace right now, as there isn't enough volume (just in case someone says he could get around this and dump immediately).

We don't know the dev's financial situation, so I wouldn't assume he is rich or poor. I am just using logic to say it makes no sense for any dev to dump a coin this soon. And it's impossible to dump in large numbers currently.

I see no reason why people can't wait until distribution is finished, and then ask for a final list. And sure, the dev could be cheating... but as with the lost coins issue, it's a really weird way to cheat. I may have a somewhat shady mind or something, and I have only been into cryptos a couple of months, but I can easily come up with more profitable ways to scam than hording coins meant for other people or losing coins.

And I have a question for you. Why do you care so much that you post here nonstop about it? Did you sell early on? Didn't get a stake? Want to buy in cheaper?

Please don't tell me it's for some altruistic reason, as if so, you'd just post concerns a handful of times and wait for an answer, like a normal person.

Some clarity as far as what is left, and who was given coins, is needed. If for nothing else, to give trolls something less to talk about. Any time the price rises on the coin, expect trolls... people who sold the coin for less or those who want to buy it cheaper.

I would be extremely doubtful that the dev wants to dump on an exchange. I mean, think about it... why would any dev want to dump a coin the first day it appears on a big exchange? Even if you assume the worst, that the dev has a stockpile of 10M (or however many) spare coins, I see no reason for him to dump anytime soon -- to get 10 btcs or instead of doing basically a tiny amount of work, and wait a while and easily get 30-50+ btcs?

As for the delay, I will just assume a normal excuse. Like he has a life, work and a family. People here can expect immediate answers, immediate action, but many devs aren't scouring the forums all day. I'd give him some time.

I'm glad I didn't bother trying to cloudmine now. As stated, the IPO would have been the way to go.

You can try picking some up on an exchange to even out your costs. Although I have no idea if the coin will go up or down... so just don't yell at me if it happens to go down a bit. Personally I would think the price should move up once the coin goes to an exchange with a bit more volume and exposure.

It was bound to happen. Doesn't matter longterm really. I mean, nobody should expect everyone to hold forever... the coin needs to get distributed around a bit more before it can go up. Once whales get it, then we can expect pumps. Just ride the waves then until you decide it's time to get off.
