Hello guys, I'm here with today's report on donations:



Today we have received 3.5 million XDN more, adding up to a total of 6.5 million.

The largest donation came from someone who loves Monero, but obviously hates XDN, since they're so ready to give it away in the form of the largest donation we've received so far.

Second place was taken by a mysterious Kangaroo hunter: good luck in your hunting, and thank you for the 600k XDN.

The three other transactions are 300k, 95k and a 2 XDN - thanks guys, especially this last one, ha!

OK guys, thank you very much again, see you tomorrow with a new report!

Hello everyone!

I wanted to announce that we have launched a crowdfunding campaign on our recently released Darknote Foundation site: we have a long road ahead of us, making every effort possible to promote the XDN's cause, and all those activities will require funding.

The wallet address for donations is dddDuFCdYkmUYDPzxc52eiWkW3QMpawcF5b93tBjaHai12c6krts7GydAMTtD2qF2xaRMC5UvSrrURp gJQnGxdRG2aNscqke6.

Currently we are conducting a market study into how many people are willing to invest money in this project and how much: after we are done with it, we will publish the funding target and the timeframe within which we're going to collect the XDN. In the meantime we are happy to accept just any sums you wish to invest.

In the nearest future we will also publish a plan for our short-term marketing activities, so that everyone can see what the collected money is going to be spent on.

The official page for this campaign is http://xdnfoundation.org/fundraising, please stay tuned to it and to this thread for upcoming updates on the campaign.

Thank you very much, and make the cash flow, guys Also, make sure to add some commentary to your donations, it can be anything: your name, the name of your site, etc. We'll make a list of donators shine eternally in our hall of fame on the Foundation's site.

P.S. I'll be donating a certain amount from my own pocket, in case if anything's wondering.

Well, I believe that some ways of promotion require a centralized organizing body: for example, adding a coin to as much exchanges as possible can be very helpful for letting people know about it, but there should be someone who will negotiate the addition of the coin to the exchange, or otherwise the natural process may take too long. I could think of more examples like that, but I'm sure you get my point: if the community wants to keep the momentum of promotion and really drive it home, there should be someone who will lead the way.
I do agree that the centralized controlling body becomes unnecessary when the popularity of the coin is secured and basically everyone knows about it, so I'd suggest the dissolution of the Foundation upon achieving the mission.

Hello everyone!

I'm happy to announce the launch of the Darknote Foundation homepage: http://xdnfoundation.org/

From here on out it will serve as a base of operations and a centerpoint of communications for the team that we are gathering. Like our mission statement and the strategic plan state, there are multiple activities to follow from our side, which will ensure the universal support and financial prosperity of the community and its sustained movement towards XDN's mass adoption.

The first order of business is to select a reliable agency to spearhead our marketing effort and establishing communications with relevant newsmakers. As soon as we achieve reasonable media presence, we'll proceed to the next steps of our strategy.

In the meanwhile, I encourage everyone to visit the Foundation's website, familiarize themselves with our plans and mission and start spreading the word!

Hi Guys!

So were are back again, after an unfortunate BTCtalk downtime. While the BTCtalk was down we managed to find more support on the native Darknotetalk.

Here is the link to our thread: http://darknotetalk.org/groups/xdn-foundation-0#comment-66
With so much interest and support we are moving swiftly into the next stage of our marketing plan – setting up XDN Foundation. We have already started working on it and will soon present foundation’s website. We are moving confidently to our goal.

Soon, we will unveil the next step of our plan.

In the meantime, those of you who want to join XDN community please make yourself heard by shouting out here, PMing me or sending me an e-mail (brian.gerald007@gmail.com). Moreover, those who want to join us in working for XDN Foundation, please drop me your CV. We will consider you for various positions now opening at our XDN Foundation team. We are looking for social media marketers, press consultant, graphic designer, motion artist and PHP developer.

Be brave! Join us!

Darknote has already reached its Minimum Block Reward and its price is only determined by the market now. The amount of coins that are on the market right now is everything there will be, no more XDN will be created.
It has the smallest blockchain of all CryptoNote-based coins, freeing you from the necessity of downloading huge amounts of data; it was the first CN coin to have a cross-platform GUI client with integrated pool miner.

So here are my two cents to this discussion.

I have developed a marketing plan that encompasses all areas of traditional and crypto marketing. I will post here later some part of my plan.

If you think about it – Bitcoin is a pure marketing product with sufficient technical support. I studied Neucoin and Dogecoin launch plans and they are all based on effective marketing activities. If you track some of these activities, you can trace strong correlation between these marketing activities and surge in demand for the coin.
