Interesting - doesn't go into detail in the article but I'd be interested in if the benefits of TIO supporting an ico and linking to investors will translate into trade.io token value. That is, for example, if you have X number of trade tokens, you'll get Y number of new tokens from an ico (so essentially like an airdrop). Kind of like with bitcoin forks or even binance coin has done that.

Or something similar like the more TIO you have, the more you can access a discounted price for an ico. That way it isn't necessary for you to be 'tight' with the trade token exec to get early access to ico's. Plenty of options out there.

Agree ravencoin is worth a look and has potential. See here (ravencalc.xyz) for calculator since it is not easily found on whattomine. Could also have a look at pigeoncoin which uses similar algorithm but I think that one is a bit riskier. Both can be mined on suprnova.

Yeah needs to be considered a 100k trade volume coin with enough interest and trade volume to get onto coinmarketcap. The lack of website and detail on the project is probably holding it back from reaching the trading volume needed to get even more awareness through a listing on coinmarketcap.

Yeah and it is still early days for mining. The number of 'new' coins being minted as a proportion of 'existing' coins is high (as it is a fairly new project). So the fact that it has maintained a relatively stable price despite all the new coins being minted - which is a high proportion relative to existing coins - is very promising.

I suspect mining difficulty will increase as some of the current other popular gpu mining coins decide not to hardfork away from asics, which will put more pressure on the actual gpu mining resistant coins out there like ravencoin (like zcash, possibly Ethereum and so on).

Most campaigns have a requirement that the 15 posts are 'constructive'. This means that short posts that don't really add anything to the discussion or issues with grammar or wording might not be counted, thereby reducing the number of tokens you receive.

Based on the wording of your thread, I'm guessing english is your second language so that might be part of your challenge in getting your posts considered 'constructive' by the campaign manager.

Most bounty campaign managers are open to questions, so you could ask why you haven't received your share of stakes/tokens. My guess is that it relates to their decision around 'constructive' posts.

Haha but that defeats the purpose of the airdrop, if all I'm doing is creating a twitter account, with zero friends/followers, and reposting something from pentanode to my following of exactly zero people

Might not go that low. My guess would be $7ish then back up following rollout of cards - assuming that happens relatively soon.

I'm pumped to get a card with key lounge access!

Is there a way to participate in the airdrop without having twitter? I know a lot of people don't have twitter but would be happy to contribute in other ways!

The 20 to 30 percent profit is based on what timeframe? 20 to 20 percent per year, trade, month etc.

Also is there proof you can provide? Like a trade history or something similar?

Awesome it's rare for many established coins to do a signature campaign but I think it is worth it to drive more interest and awareness. Once supernodes kick in that could be as good a time as any.

Back down to $8 range, but everything dropping so what can ya do.

Anyway resistance is probably lower than $20. Can't see anyone spending that much usd on Mco to get enough for 50 mco lockup.

Also post outside altcoin threads. I know meta threads don't usually count for the 'post count' needed for many bounty campaigns, but there isn't much merit flowing in altcoin forums - probably due to all the spam threads.

Yea I wonder post hardfork how much the net hashrate will drop. Will give a good indication of how many asics have been running before the 'official announcement ' that equihash asics have been developed.

My guess 30 per cent but I'm just pulling that number out of the air.

If you read for two minutes instead of spamming, you'd see it is already released and you can buy some right now on an exchange like binance.

Yeah but who is putting money into the pre-sale. Not saying this is the case, but there have been ICO's where a lot of the 'pre-sale' is from people who are or who know the developers, as a shortcut way to get momentum and convince others not close to the project that it is something worthwhile.

Anyway goodluck with your investment - the bounty of 4 per cent looks good, so another way to support without necessarily buying in too deep.

So will bartercoin essentially be an ebay type of coin? With the idea that transaction and listing fees will be much lower?

Looks like miners will keep getting 88 percent of block reward until july 2018 instead of may! Outside of aligning upgrades, are there any technical issues that are pushing out the timeframes?

Cryptopia has been difficult. They've had wallet issues for altcoins, like Bulwark, which really crippled the momentum of some of these coins for a long period of time. Wallet maintenance for almost a month in one case. They charge something like 200k a listing so really these things shouldn't happen.

Interesting. I'm always concerned that some of the clone coins out there with questionable teams are just looking to sell masternodes for BTC in the early days, then do a whole lot of nothing while you're stuck with a masternode on a network no one supports.

I'd suggest ZEN to start with as the barriers to entry are pretty low - only need 42 zen to start a regular node and the project has been around for a while and is definitely a long term project.

I wonder if running nodes/masternodes will eventually replace PoW mining.

Yeah I'm pumped. A lot of competition out there but hopefully with interesting features like the liquidity pool coming up will see trade io become a popular exchange. I hope they have a good range of established coins as well and don't just pitch to brand new coins looking to get listed anywhere.

Also wonder how much they'll charge coins for a listing?
