We're still around guys - just nothing new to report.

Maybe I'm just on drugs.  Wallet ended up syncing.

Thanks for the email and heads up anarchyx. Scooby took a look into this last night and didn't see anything unusual.

We did take checkpoint data in case.

I feel your pain, but at the same time, I have a different viewpoint.

First off, I manage the company that employs the WKC Dev team, so I am not just guessing, but at the same time, I must admit that I myself probably know less about cryptos than you do, or than many of the people on here do. That's not a reflection of our talent, our team is very well versed in this area, I myself however am not.

We do have specific goals with the coin, but I don't think right now is the most opportune time to launch or roll out many of them. The crypto market, I believe is on it's way to being quite a bit more stable than it has been over the last year. I think what we have seen with a lot of coins, including BTC, is a natural market correction, not a temporary drop. The nature of a market like BTC, (or any crypto) is that competition will continue to enter until such point as profitability has reached a minimum allowable or acceptable rate. It's like an auction, we will all keep bidding on something until it's price has reached the minimum amount below retail that we are willing to pay. The value of BTC was simply not sustainable at the levels it was at before, people were making too much money from mining, the only ways available to correct that were to increase the network hash rate by 200 fold all at once (which would be pretty tough), decrease the block reward to 1 BTC (which the code doesn't allow for), or devalue the coin until there is just an "acceptable" level of profit for those mining efficiently. We've got that now, those with efficient miners can make a profit, reinvest that profit into more efficient machines and make more profit. Those without the advantage of having the best equipment have a harder time breaking even, that is the nature of how this type of market works, a system isn't efficient until those with the means and purchasing power to take advantage of the newest technology squeeze out all the small fries. It's sad news, but it's life.

So, that's great, BTC's value is now attached to something tangible, the cost of creating the coins, so why wouldn't now be the time to strike? The entire community that supports crypto has just gone through a very bumpy roller coaster ride. It needs time to come to terms with the reality that is the crypto market and the reality that making a profit here should be hard work just like everywhere else. The wounds dealt to those who supported and invested in BTC have to heal before we can hope to win them over let alone a whole bunch of people who didn't loose anything on BTC, but know of people who did. People who are just learning about BTC are less inclined to invest because you don't invest on a downturn, you invest on the upswing. Just like you don't bet on a loosing horse, you don't let it ride on a loosing streak, and when you go broke at the casino, you don't go to the bank machine and withdraw more money.

Over the next few months you will see the price of high volume cryptos stabilize even more, fluctuations in price will look more like regular fluctuations that you would see in a stock price or in a fiat currency. Massive sell offs will continue to wreak havoc on the price but it will bounce back quickly (and realistically, the exact same thing happens with stocks and fiat currencies, there just aren't many people who own enough of 1 currency to sell it off and tank the value. As an example, Berkshire Hathaway (Warren Buffets investment company) just sold off it's stake in Exxon Mobil, their stake was about 1%, or just under $4 Billion. That massive sell off, even if executed over time, has a real effect on the stock price. Consequently, the news of the sell off also has an effect on the stock price, just like the news of some investor liquidating $50 M in BTC has an effect on the price, even if the report is false. Anyways, I am rambling, the market will stabilize, many of the rip off coins will be weeded out and it will be time for those who are left to make their push, and we will be ready.

I think you guys have been made aware of what we do have in the pipe a few times already, but I will mention a few here.

When it is time, we have a safe and secure way for people to buy WKC with cash.

When it is time, we have a way to guarantee merchants liquidity for the coins they accept at a fair price that will not cause them to loose money.

When it is time and with the knowledge that we can guarantee liquidity, I have a large list of merchants ready and waiting to add WKC to their offerings.

Until it is time, I will not advise them to do so.

I won't comment on possible changes to the code itself, although we have plans, like I mentioned at the start of the post, that just isn't my area.

P.S. If anyone is interested, I only charge 50 WKC to write your name on my titties!

Hey everyone,

Thanks for the continued discussion. As it is probably a few pages back, the last post I made mentioned how development on WKC has been put on hold for now as we work on other projects.

There are a number of things the team wants to implement, unfortunately until we get the okay to go ahead these ideas are on hold until the other projects are completed.

I try to come online and look at the forum daily, but the last couple weeks have been very hectic and unfortunately I haven't been able to do so. I am an accountant by day and it is tax season now as well.

If you guys are posting messages to us on the thread, drop me a PM if some time has gone past and I'll be notified to come look.

Ehi Greg, this coin need to website where use ONLY wankcoin!! Other cryptos that have  MARKET VALUE HAVE A WEBSITE DEDICATED FOR YOUR  USE!
We can make a webcam website as chaturbate or similar...


This is a great idea as well and is what XXXCoin tried. There are a couple hurdles with developing a site like this:

1. How do you get models to work for Wankcoin?

2. How do you get models on the site 24/7?

3. Most cam models now already have sites they prefer to cam on.

4. More acceptance is going to negatively affect price as models sell their coin for bitcoin/fiat. We can see this already with BTC - big names like Microsoft, Expedia, etc. immediately convert their BTC into fiat and aren't helping the price at all.

Ehi Greg, can you ask to cryptsy if add wank coin?

I've emailed Cryptsy numerous times, and they don't even read the emails. I get a cut and paste response every time.

I've PM'd BitJohn on here numerous times as well, he completely ignores me.

I think TIT was added to Cryptsy because of a relationship that Coyote of Wall Street has with them. I'm not really sure what else we can do!

Hey guys!

A couple things:

1. Volume has been above the threshold Bittrex wants to avoid the coin being delisted, we watch this daily and don't believe we have any need for concern.

2. walletgenerator.net added Wankcoin to their paper wallet generator! I asked them to add us last month and they did, I may have forgot to tell everyone! Give it a try and give us some feedback! Smiley

Hey everybody,

Sorry I have been away from the forum for so long.

Behind the scenes we have been chatting with some of our biggest supporters to get their input of where they think the coin should go. We have decided what we want to do and which direction we want the coin to go, however, our developers (as well as myself) are very busy on a company project at the moment that unfortunately we can't pull them away from until they are finished.

In the meantime, I have been keeping an eye on Wankcoin markets as well as the general crypto scene. If you feel we have been quiet for too long, a quick PM or message on the board will get a response as soon as possible.

We are definitely in it for the long haul and appreciate the support and those sticking it out with us.

Greg, Devs, your input/assurances would be welcome at this juncture.  I realize you mentioned updates coming soon, but a delisting of the coin won't do much for the coin image.

We will do what we can to stop the coin from being delisted! It's unfortunate there hasn't been much trading happening there, but it looks like some of the competition is facing the same challenge.

what is better ? this coin ? sexcoin ? xxxcoin ?  too confusing

WKC is supposed to have another promo video soon...I thought it was shot anyways?

The video has been shot (and was a while ago actually), again it is just a matter of having the resources available to get it edited and ready to go live. As I mentioned before, with the holidays, and vacations and such, there hasn't been much time to get anything accomplished. Once the New Year rolls in and the holidays are behind us, we will hopefully get things moving at a better pace.

Thanks again for the support and sticking with us! Hope everyone is having a good holiday season.

Hey Greg,  any status updates?

Not too much new to report since the Android wallet, it's holiday time so we have limited access to resources until the New Year.

Our rep with the online interac company is away until the New Year as well, so I haven't been able to make any progress as far as that goes.

I'll hopefully get a chance to sit down with the other team members and get you guys a little more info soon.

We need to flush out ideas because community exists for that mostly... We can only wait and see if devs are going to do something about these ideas... First and foremost we need tools that are easy to use and multiplatform. So in short if we offer easy way to use WKC and in the same time that they can save money and be anonymous that is pure win...

I agree for that. Most time there are for every Crypto Coin a wallet. Wouldn't it be easier to access to have one wallet app for multiple Crypto Coins?

WKC has another problem. Not everyone wanna the wallet be on the computer. a digital smartphone wallet would increase the use of WKC like BTC


We have an Android wallet available, you can get it at:

Hey everybody!

Thanks for all your patience as we worked on this new option for Wankcoin. As I mentioned before, it was going to start as a one pager that you can purchase Wankcoin using Egopay. Scooby has been working hard and our original tests all seem to work good. We still need to get a designer to look at the page and make it look good, but in the meantime, I'm sharing the link with you guys if you want to hop on there and give it a shot, it will also help us test it out a bit more.

www.digibilling.com/purchase

Egopay is easy to use and digital currency friendly. It needs very little personal information to fund and use, and uses exchangers that allow you to put money in your account from other e-wallets as well. It's not credit card acceptance yet - we still haven't figured out how to get around the huge risks that come with credit cards, as well as the fact that most banks do not like cryptos. We are working on it, and this is also why we chose to use digibilling as the site you buy wankcoin from - it provides annonymity in case charges appear on any statements - better digibilling.com than wankcoin.com if you don't want people to know what you are buying at first glance.

Once the site is cleaned up by our designers, we'll start promoting the option and I'll start to work with the online interac company which I personally think is going to be a great option for buying wankcoin and much easier than credit cards as well.

Give it a shot guys and let us know what you think!

Testing with Egopay is going well guys, a little bit of cleaning up/design and we will be ready to open it up to everyone.

Once we do that, I'll start working with the online interac processor to get that rolling as well.

Exciting times ahead!  Grin

Hey all,

Stopping in with a quick update. We've started testing Egopay integration today. If all goes well, I should have more news soon!

Greg

Alright everyone!

Egopay has approved our website and Scooby has begun integration. We will be testing soon hopefully and will have some design guys on it prettying everything up.

I've been communicating back and forth with the Interac online processor that works with cryptos. Once the site is functioning they will take a look at it and approve it so we can move forward with that payment method as well. By the sounds of it, once we have Interac processing running in Canada, it will open us up for processing in 153 other countries as well. One step at a time but I am very excited about that.

Things are coming together now, stay tuned!

Hey all,

Scooby has found the issue with pool, it has been corrected and is catching up now.

Should have some more news for everyone soon!

Hey everyone,

It was brought to my attention today that the official pool hasn't found a block in almost 2 days now.

I've emailed Scooby and we are looking into it, I'll update once I have some news.

Hey guys -

As I mentioned before Scooby is away which has been part of the hold up these last couple weeks. He is returning early next week and we will be back at work making things happen.

On a positive note, I've been working on a merchant account for accepting Interac online payments (albeit from Canadians only at the moment) as well as international wire payments. This is looking promising. We should also be able to start testing Egopay integration next week and that will probably be the first option available that we go live with.

I've noticed TIT's pump as well, which in my opinion is based on hype only. They hit a high of about 6k sats that they were only able to keep momentarily. As bla_bla and others have mentioned, they have a serious supply issue that will continue to hinder their growth. Let's not forget they still have no acceptance and didn't even get close to WKC's highs during our launch. This will be their second failed pump.

Things will be coming together soon, thank you for the continued support and patience.
