@earthcoin In the context of a possible impending lawsuit against the Coinye devs - and yes maybe the RPC as well - I can't help mentioning/asking if the devs behind EAC are absolutely sure there can be no lawsuit from e.g. Microsoft with that very similar logo to the Internet Explorer one..?
I think that is ok. Earthcoin has no conncetion to the IE. And it is just a plain lower case 'e'. In my opinion the logo reminds people of the logo of the internet explorer. I showed the logo to many people and they all saw it "Ihhh internet explorer. Nice coin, but this logo is bad". Is there a possibilty for a competion for a new logo. Same style but less ie-ish? Maybe another font style. It's not even that similar. It's just a blocky lowercase E. The tail of the IE 'e' hooks around to end parallel with the upper part, the EAC one does not. And the IE 'e' is heavier weight. Please, for god's sake, do not change the logo now. Look at what happened with Quark running a 'logo contest'. it became an absolute cluster*** and everyone still uses the old logo. EAC logo is awesome. Microsoft does not have a trademark on lowercase letter E's. i agree |

I immediately thought of internet explorer when I saw the E. Sure, you can say it's not the same. It isn't. However, it's close enough to confuse most people. |

it's similar enough to elicit a recognition response from the target audience, yet different enough not to get us into trouble |

I think people need to be reminded of a simple fact:
go to coinex, scroll back as far as you can. the earliest day you can see a price:
you'll find EAC with the label "open" at 250 satoshi.
yes, it was 250 satoshi back then.
now we are at 277...
now take a look at basically every other new coin. some lost 93% of their value, like moon.
how about people see the big picture, recognize that doige has lost constantly every day, while we are still at starting levels.
yes, we were at 900 too, but we did not crash far far below starting price as doge did and all the other trash coins
what do you expect? several hundred % in a week?
right now prices are hilariously cheap, yet no indication that EAC has tanked or is on the way out. on the contrary. EAC has been the most stable coin out there, despite BTC spike and tons of competition
in general i would say + 1 but does this look stable? i dont know... for me it is clearly going down... and if there are no big stakeholder or guys which hold the marketcap, then i guess it is getting even lower...  |

Regarding recent prices, I too have been wishing this thing higher but reality seems to be that given current hashrates the price is fairly generous. EAC would be at or near the top of the list at coinwarz.
What we need is some actual news event to push demand up, get hashrates higher, bring in some new money and miners. I actually think the devs should be keeping mum on any potential "news". Better to let the news hit us when there is any actual real news to report and let it surprise us into buying. In the meantime let prices flounder and push out the weak hands. That is healthy!

General update: * Thanks - everyone - for everything so far. This has been an insane journey for us (well for me at least). 230 pages of insanity - and finally we can come up for a bit of air and take a look at this from an eagle's eye viewpoint vs a worm in the trenches. * A lot is happening that we could not have predicted, and these unforeseens will probably continue to happen in this wild wild west environment. From free coin generators to copyright infringement frenzies, to exchanges not giving us a fair shot for whatever reasons despite obvious quality and effort from all involved far surpassing most of the slates out there, to competitors or critics going far out of their way to stifle our growth in many creative ways. We're still motoring! * We'll be spending the next phase on top level priorities and networking with exchanges. I actually reached out to BigVern on my Skype yesterday morning despite my efforts not to bug him - and have not had a response yet - we're not that 'close' so I feel funny continuing to wag my tail over and over at him, if there is an update you're all the first to know. Something is DEFINITELY happening over there, we just hope we're a part of it sooner than later now. * Not worried about our logo, go to google images and look for 'e logos', there's tons and I made sure we're far off from their shape, thickness, treatment, sub logo's to boot re the earth vs the 'e'. * Chinese exchanges/networking, as you can see we have a 'Chinese version' link from our main site to our Chinese teams site - yes we're taking it seriously and yes we'd like to be included in their exchanges too obviously  . However I understand with the crazy dilution why more exchanges are implementing thicker filters quick. * More info coming soon, today looks like it's going to be a busy one. So the sentence is: No news for today except that we don't have to worry about the logo. |

3. I heard, Big Vern ( cryptsy) is having some connection to the coming coin; COINYE.
4. COINYE is getting launched today and will be pushed/marketed very intensively ( it is already widely in the news before the launch).
5. Coinye might be on cryptsy very quick.
I say again my assumptions might very well wrong.
But when cryptsys interest is COINYE, I can imagine they don't want to boost their biggest opponent; EAC. @batoelrob - the above quote is from your own post.. did you read this? http://online.wsj.com/public/resources/documents/20140107-WSJ-coinye.pdf which Grrizz posted.. I would not give that Coinye a bright future - and if indeed BigVern aka Cryptsy is behind it (as you are indicating) - we might soon need a new exchange  Yes, I did read it. But that's not really our concern, whatever happens to coinye, we can't do anything about it. Situation is that it looks like that we might not be listed so soon ( or not at all) at cryptsy. So, we have to make plans, to get listed on other exchanges. As far as I can see, China is important. Yesterday, I posted about a voting on www.guogao.com (but you have to be registered, I heard). The funny thing, I was registered, but can't remember I ever did that ( don't speak chinese). Then in China we have www.bter.com and www.btc38.com. According www.bter.com, I am not really enthusiastic. There is little trading, I have an account there and had a lot of problems cashing out last week. I got an error code and support never answered my mail. Finally, I installed qq and had to try to explain an not english speaking chinese that something was wrong. After a couple of days, I finally was able to cashout. As far as I can see btc38 is the place to be, but we were listed and taken off again. To me it looks like we need to search really hard for the right chinese speaking guy that can help us further regarding getting a listing at btc38 ( and maybe bter). I hope so much that all these noobs, complaining about the 2% premine and the dev not willing to give full info about his EAC holdings, will stop posting. In a market that is going on for a couple of years it is impossible to come on top without the use of a lot of money ( coins). I have seen it in other businesses, coming in "late"you need an excellent product, huge dedication and a lot of money, to have a chance to succeed. As far as I can see, the product is good, the dedication is fantastic, but don't take the money away. Maybe we should turn it the other way. I think, the dev does a great job and earns a reward everytime we make money by holding EAC coins. Mr. earthcoin, I will send you a reward of 25k EAC as soon as EAC/BTC hits 0,00001 i am from china,I can help you speak chinese Stay with us friend, there will be lots of need for you! |

I love EAC and its community but it seems we need to do something more to improve the coin.

If the rumors are true, he's just too busy dealing with his Coinye project to list any new coins. |
