Well dev if only a few people hold it, then it is very easy to relaunch the coin. You only give the current holders their equivalent of the new coin in marketcap or even less like 5%. What you could do is first develop something that is Chess related for example a coin that pays winners of tournaments on LiChess using Blackcoins custom mining. Or maybe it pays users involved in matches with each other, paying the winner aka fair gambling. The users can name their account off their public key. Users who gamble have their coins frozen for the duration of their match until a winner emerges by either registering the address before each game or putting it in a joint account. You can also do double deposit escrow between gamblers. Or you can rent out the mining power in Boinc project where miners run Stockfish which is open source. Strong Chess players might pay the miners to rent the Stockfish engine. Or you can try to solve 8 man tablebases using mining power. That will definitely draw attention. It all depends on your skill as a dev. Instead of launching a coin and then developing, develop something and then launch. Don't launch without a project in hand. That is exactly what crypto community is tired of. Nobody wants empty promise. Do first, talk later. I taught myself Python in 3 months and coded BitHalos prototype in 3 months 4 years ago because I knew how important double deposit escrow was to crypto. No talk only action. If I can do it, so can you.
Relaunch sounds good, a fresh start, fresh energy and maybe a chance to attract more attention.

Yes that is a good point but we are all responsible for our own actions at the end of the day.
The harm effect on other people from ones drug use are normally associated with the drug user having to find the money to purchase illegal drugs, if the addict could just go to the local chemist and pick up what he needs then he would not be harming anyone but himself and even that is debatable .
Sure, it would break the chain. The drugs would be more affordable and easy to get in any pharmacy, less people would resort to theft and borrowing from gangsters to fuel their addiction. They'd be getting pure product instead of some unknown and sometimes deadly chemicals. Gangsters would lose their main income and governments would get more money from taxes. Apart from this, it has been proven that legalization and regulation lowers the level of drug addiction. For example, in Portugal, the number of drug users declined after the government legalized all sort of drugs in 2001. You can also have the dutch system, making it legal to sell drugs but illegal to produce. Fantastic system, every country should try....

It's good that someone else here can see the bigger picture, great post! That is still not what I meant, drugs is less harmfull for non users, alcohol makes people violent and not aware of their actions. Thats why Alcohol is more dangerous. I wouldnt care a shit if someone would die of drug abuse or by putting wrong chemicals in their system. Not my problem.

I am surprised people ask for people to convince them to buy BTC. NEVER let other people decide about what you should do, if you are not feeling safe with doing it, dont. You are just finding a way to be able to blame others when things go wrong.

America wants to start boycot China, China secures its money by turning it into gold. Just a safety system. Even though America still owns a fucking huge amount of money to china.

Anyone bought drugs with bitcoin and what are you thought on the subject ?
i know i have used bitcoin to buy psilocybe cubensis thank you bitcoin i cold have not done this without you now i can trip watching corry & eastenders in the evening its such a sight.
Well thats very hard if you buy drugs with bitcoin you can easily be traced by the government dude >.< but still if you're in a private place bang! you will have drugs but dont buy drugs please! think about the little children who wants to grow up to be like you so don;t do drus basically it is a prohibition. I think we do not have to buy illegal goods with bitcoin. it violates the rules because it can hurt many people. the impact will be huge. What rules are you even talking about, it is a prohibition, what's that about? Some of us who have adopted bitcoin for something other than to signature spam have done so to get away from some of the rules that oppressive governments put on us. Why should some drug be legal and some illegal, why should a government have the right to tell you what you put into your own body? Take alcohol for example was illegal now legal, marijuana will probably be legal in most countries within 10 years and already is legal in a lot. Tobacco probably really should be illegal but why if someone wants to smoke let them and the same goes with drugs, if someone wants to chose to put something into their own body then let them, it is a harmless crime and therefor should not even be a crime. Its harmless unless you get others people involved in your actions. Thats why alcohol is more dangerous then drugs.
