Official Anoncoin chat thread (including history)

Sorry Lizard but I disagree; getting closer to LTC makes a lot of sense for ANC - both coins have much to win from closer partnership....

As for Kittehcoin I'd say that being traded in LTC is a consequence rather than a cause of their poor performance..

Litecoinlocal.org has added an ANC/LTC pairing.

It really should be paired with BTC only, in my opinion. ANC is too valuable for the LTC market. Kittehcoin just entered the LTC market & it's killing them.

The web site is extremely slow, and sometimes it hangs up. Try again in a few minutes...

Wow, you're lucky. I've waited two and half weeks and have had nothing. Except today a little less than 30% of the coins I withdrew showed up. Not sure why 30%, but I'm feeling much better about it all than I was yesterday. Hate to throw this word around but thought we were getting goxed...my support tickets were getting closed and I wasn't getting any serious response. Still worried, but feeling much better. Will continue to keep everyone updated.

I send few precious ANCoins to Bluetrade, like you suggested.

Maybe we should vote for "major" exchange,
the faster it will be filled if is seen here.. ?

Cryptsy making problems for long time now.

[notabot]

Received my withdrawal from cryptsy! Yaaaah.


EDIT: an attempted withdrawal of the ANC still on cryptsy comes up with a box saying that the ANC wallet is offline for maintenance. They must know they have a problem there and hopefully addressing it.

Hey, I've got some free time on my hands. Not sure what the best way is to contact the developers, but I'd love to help out with the PR. I'd obviously prefer to get paid with some spare ANC, but really that'd just be a bonus and I'd like to help out with the acceptance of the coin. (Disclosure: I do own a lot myself, so I'd be making money off of its success) I've got some ideas on where to talk it up and how to help out, but if anyone here has ideas themselves but not the time to work on them, let me know what it is and I'll see what I can do. I have no coding experience.

[Rspigler]

Also, back on the topic of Cryptsy withdrawals, I'm very glad to see people starting to get their coins. I still only have under 30% of them, but am very optimistic now. Hopefully will be able to breathe a sigh of relief in a few days. Seems like I overreacted and was thinking of the worst

Here is an idea to think about for publicity.

Ads on major sites, bought through google or other services are generally very cheap on sites that would have a lot of people who might be attracted to anoncoin.

Further, ads can be bought either by the click, very expensive, or by the impression, which is potentially very cheap. Impression ads with simply the anon logo and some text, in some offbeat sites could be very cheap.

I did this some years ago, but here is a general idea of how it id done. Probably has not changed much over the years.

1) Get free google ad credits, microsoft credits, yahoo credits etc. It used to be easy to get $50 and $100 credits, with no obligations. Someone who works on sites regularly will know up to date info.

2) Open ad accounts at the offerers, e.g. google

3) Pick a bunch of sites where ads are sold by impression, e.g. 1000 impressions for 50 cents or whatever. Sites like RebelFreakshowAnarchists.com are extremely cheap to advertise on obviously.

4) Beware of scumbaggery. Microsoft and google both used to try to use dirty tricks to burn through the free credits. Start by setting a budget of $3 a day or something like that.

5) Make a bunch of graphic or text ads. Graphic ads can have a lot of effects etc. Someone who is good at art has to do it.

6) Run at least four or five diffetent ads at the same time going to several different landing pages.

7) In your ad account you can figure out which ads get clicks and which don't. Since you are paying for impressions, not clicks, this is a key. You may start by getting only one or two clicks per thousand impressions, but after working pruning ads you might find a few ads that get a lot of clicks.

The webmaster of anoncoin has to review the logs to see which landing page is best, i.e., which page has people stay the longest and then view more pages on the site.

9) Once you have a good combination of ads that people like and landing pages that are popular you open the throttle.

is there any way to prevent eight followed by end parentheses from turning into the smiley sombrero dude?

Haha I was wondering why that was there...I've never done anything with ads before but I could try to look into it. I was honestly just thinking of trying to show the Darkcoin/Cryptonote/CoinJoin/Zerocash folk some common sense.

Update for the withdrawal issue: Got 30% of my coins yesterday (as posted above), and later got an email last night from support apologizing for the long wait and letting me know that all my coins had been withdrawn. I responded, letting them know that that was not true, and only 30% had, and she replied back with this:

"I am able to locate the transaction IDs
I will forward this to our 2nd tier of technical support
we will resend this. Thank you for your patience."

Yay, there's a second tier technical support. I'm going to love waiting the next two weeks for their response. Maybe if support actually read my tickets, they would have seen the one where I included ALL the transaction ID's for all my missing withdrawals. And then maybe I'd actually have all my coins now.

Yes, it would be great to create a small comparaison website to inform people why Anoncoin with Zerocoin implementation is the most anonymous coin.
This could be an "impartial" website with a specific domain name to be well referenced and also do some adwords.
If you and others people here could create the content, I can do the rest.

That's a great idea. Way better than just spamming subreddits. I'll try to get started on that in the next couple days. Could I run it by you to make sure all the technical stuff is right?
