581  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][RIC] Riecoin, new prime numbers POW coin, CLIENT UPDATE v0.8.7 AVAILABLE on: March 01, 2014, 05:37:37 AM
coin can loose first mover advantage and be left in the dust this way if a clone pops up fast enough with more diverse network from the start i think ... just hope the clone is not released before the network-thing is sortet  Roll Eyes

network is first priority. If you don't have one you don't have a coin.
If your network is not diverse you can not tell people you have a (fully) decentralized (and secure) currency because it would be a lie.

Prediction: now a round of some fud for everybody with some selling of course and then we see price threefold in a few hours after the third pool came on and nobody has more than that 50% of the network. Is also best scenario.

i hope it makes some sense

Yeah, if this coin gets even two more pools the price will skyrocket.

I think I read a few posts about these prices right now being criminally low . . but right now this coin is a highly centralized currency minted by one group of people. It's funny to watch the main riecoin.org page advertising as decentralized and know they're full of it because of that.

This coin is partially-decentralized right now, but unless at least 2-3 more pools pop up to make it decentralized it will just continue to be bullied down on the markets until it's worth even less than a few days ago.

The coin's just spinning it's wheels with one pool. . .sinking deeper and deeper.

I made the video so since you're saying I'm full of shit I'll respond to that. The mentions of 'decentralization' are in regards to the coin design and code, not the current state of the community. I could have made a video that made the claim "fully decentralized once more pools are added", but that would soon need to be edited. . .Unless I had no expectation that more pools would ever be created, in which case why would I bother making a promotional video?

I also got a donation of 250RIC for creating the video, there was a post for 500RIC for a block explorer, I think there are bounties for pools too. There are discussion of how to get more pools going and such here: riecointalk.com.

Yeah that's cool that someone made an alt website. But the main thread is on this site right here:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=67.0

No matter what anyone says. This is where people feel comfortable, and where they're looking to speculate. Not some alt site that requires effort to go to and make another account at just to post. Stop pulling traffic out of this thread, it looks terrible when you're redirecting people every two posts to a site for a coin that's two weeks old. Let it grow before you change things like that.

I've seen this crap with other coins. Every single time it splits the already faltering traffic and the coin fails even harder because everyone that thinks they're doing something good are just burying this shit in some obscure website like the one you listed and that's the end.



I completely agree.  As someone who owns greater than 10 different alts, I refuse to check the graveyard that is most alt's message boards just to hear the latest updates.  My personal preference is if OP could update the ANN with the most relevant updates, e.g., announce that the there's a wallet update and that it fixed the transaction malleability bug there.

The way I see it, most of a legitimate alt's productive development discussion goes on at the external forum, rather than here. It happened with PPC, and it's happening with RIC. I, the dev, and other active members post here just as regularly. It's just a much more organized location for bounties. Definitely agree that gatra could keep the [ANN] and OP updated with progress, will contact him about that.


Would it make more sense then to just post things twice? On the one hand I see how we need to keep this thread active because this is where most people will look for info, but the organization is also key. There is a bounty out for desperately needed pools, if the only mention of that bounty was in here it'd be pretty lost.

Someone reassure me!
Nope! You should sell this turd train at sub .0003 levels to me!

Are you missing where it's .001 right now? Why wouldn't I sell to that guy?

Also, how did this coin go up 100% yesterday, and like zero people are throwing up support in the main thread?


There is also a forum here just on Riecoin:
riecointalk.com

Also, the price started going up when RIC got onto coin market caps 2 days ago. Web traffic shows many more people know about RIC now thanks to coinmarketcaps.

don't listen to people that tell you to do less. There is no problem witch Riecoin trading everywhere you can possibly think of. Do more for the coin - not less - do it in your own way.

I agree. Seeing RIC in as many places as possible increases exposure and attention - I think it should all be welcomed. Even if someone lists it on a crap exchange where people lose everything to a scam - that reflects badly on the exchange not the coins listed. And there would be no way to stop them anyways, any discouragement just makes the Riecoin community look unwelcoming.

That said, if you're looking to help out the coin time is better spent asking the big exchanges.

The only potential negative I could see would be at the big exchanges. If RIC is trading decent volumes between several small exchanges, there might be less incentive for them to accept RIC. They look at the quality of a coin definitely, but they also must consider how much of a market share they'll get.

Riecoin promo video views jumped from 100/day to 1500+/day after hitting coinmarketcaps.

Hi, Thanks!

So far the discussion in the Riecointalk forum is to prefer listings of Riecoin as RIC please.

Yea... I don't mind buying more Riecoin at this low price, depending how everything goes. If the market cap drops below 90th place at coinmarkcap (simulation-wise), I will be buying bucketload more because there is no way Riecoin is worth less than pandacoin or potcoin or dopecoin......
I completely abandoned my 50/50 strategy the other day ago to buy Riecoin at .0004. I now hold more RIC than I've ever held in any non-BTC crypto.

Same here! More than any other non-BTC crypto now. Committed. . . .For a long time my strategy was a little of this and a little of that, but now I think it makes more sense to pick a fundamentally good coin that's underrated and dedicate some time to it - also more interesting.

I'm reading about Datacoin with interest. This may already have been mentioned but, any plans to add famous works to Datacoin? Shakespeare, Plato, that sort of thing. From there maybe an e-reader app and trying to get publishers interested.

The Botnet continues dumping more and more coins, bringing the price further down Sad

if this continue it will keep going down which is unfortunate for an interesting coin like this.



Whammo!

If RIC gets on Cryptsy there will be more buyers and coinmarketcaps should bring more attention - part of the problem is that there are so few buy orders, every big sell demolishes the price... I like what you mentioned earlier about raising the memory requirement so botted people are alerted to the confiscation of resources... Curious, how hard is that type of change to implement?
591  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][RIC] Riecoin, new prime numbers POW coin, launches Feb 11, 2014 on: February 26, 2014, 07:48:35 PM
I love the premise of the coin.  Lots of potential!  Way too many coins released without the developer giving constant updates and having interaction with the community.

Maybe most of these guys don't have a marketing background, but at the very least you should visit your own thread to re-store consumer confidence.

If you want to succeed with this coin you will need to be more active, or this coin will fall by the wayside.

Gatra stops in to say things every couple days at least. You'll also see him frequently on Riecointalk.com. Also, he's the first dev I know of who updated with the new Bitcoin transaction malleability fix.

In the end, marketers are a dime a dozen, but someone who can write something like Riecoin is a great rarity. That said though, I agree RIC is desperately in need of better marketing.

hmmm, I guess marketing and community are parts of the product themselves though in the case of cryptos. Ultimately its the community that makes it secure and valuable. I just fear, and avoid, coins that don't take decentralization and security at their core. I only got into bitcoin because its P2P, if a coin lacks that I have little to no interest irregardless of the marketing. I just don't see the point. I'd rather promote my nation's own currency (yuck) than something an anonymous stranger has control of.

Mostly agree.  I think marketing is essential.  Look at Dogecoin.  Nothing special about the coin from a development standpoint, but the community and marketing sets it apart. 

Focusing purely on development is a lethal mistake.  There are now over 120 coins on marketcap, and Riecoin isn't one of them. 

Absolutely, Doge's marketing efforts have been brilliant, and marketing itself is definitely of value without anything else. The reason I keep buying more RIC is because I feel like the harder part (development) is very solid. RIC doesn't need marketing brilliance to succeed, it just needs good marketing - which in my opinion will only take a matter of time. As mentioned above, the coin won't die from low prices, that will just make it easier to mine and buy draw in more newcomers (hopefully a good marketer too!).

I hope you are right.  We can agree to disagree.  I actually think the community and marketing is far more important.  Do you really think Nike shoes function that much better than 10th placed shoe in the market, or does the marketing of Jordan, Lebron, Tiger set itself apart?

HA, I hope I'm right too! . . .Ah but with Nike you're looking at brilliant marketing - brilliant marketing is hard to come by and/or very expensive. You can sell anything no matter how crappy with brilliant marketing - and Nike succeeds on its brand for sure. What I'm saying is good products don't need brilliant marketing, sure it would help, but its not necessary (good marketing is necessary, but not brilliance). For every 1 Nike, there are 10 other lesser known shoe companies also profiting because they have OK marketing and a good product. . . .

Please use this version of the Riecoin video for promotions. I opened an account just for Riecoin. Also, when I can figure out how to associate the channel to riecoin.com, It will eventually have clickable links right in the vid that take you to the official website. So please direct all traffic here.

Hey guys...check out a great introduction video to Riecoin one of Riecoin's community member made!
https://vimeo.com/87464754
You did a great job with that video! You should reupload it on youtube so more people see it.

Agreed, YouTube format would allow easier website embedding, and might just get some hits from people browsing related videos

Makes sense, I'll get it up there today and give it a nice set of tags and CC keywords.

what I do is - if there is some new ANN with another ALT coin I spend few hours, do a clip and send it to develeopers of this coin - they will send you some donations.

Smiley


Cool thanks. I noticed designers and such doing that as well. I figure I'll do some of that for the coins I like, but wanted to put an offer out as well for coins I don't get to just to see. . .

Hi Coin Whales, Communities and Developers!

Don't neglect youtube and your video presence - its a major source of web traffic! 

Sifting through 100s of coins, people won't spend much time looking you over. I'll make your best features stand out, and I'll convey what you're all about fast.



2 videos I created for CENT/pennies and RIC/riecoin.

https://vimeo.com/87464754

https://vimeo.com/87444315

The process is very simple. I'll write a script and share it with you or your public forum for feedback and revisions. When you're happy with it, I'll make the video. Revisions are fine - I want it to be exactly what you need for your marketing.

I also produce high paced promos from live footage. Maybe you had an event or conference recently that you'd like to tell everyone about with a professional cut? A message from the founder? These types of things can also be incorporated with the whiteboard style exampled above.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EllbcrhD4VU

Everything will be royalty free for all uses!


Here's the best part - you can pay me exclusively in your coin- just make me an offer! I'm a firm believer in cryptos and I'll be happy to take on your coin both as a videographer and an investor. Chances are, I may have some of your coin already.

I'm also happy to make any video for 0.5BTC.



Thanks so much, I look forward to working with you,
Remi





Not bad videos!

Keep up and good luck with deals!


Regards!

Thanks very much!
