I would love to buy some if coinedup would work.....

You could send a PM to the OPs of Cryptsy == https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=110699

I think we all should post something in PRT wallet ANN thread to bump it and hype it up a bit. Tell something you like about it and what'd you like to see in it.

Particle is a great coin, but I think we should do a bit more promoting as a community (comparing to some other coins (like DigiByte, gosh they are organized, but the team is much muc bigger, tho) we look pretty lazy), not just wait for the new wallet and hope that everybody will suddenly magically discover it by themselves and value of PRT we're holding skyrockets to the stars (forget the moon)

What type promoting we can do?

A wallet giveaway. "to celebrate the new wallet we are giving away some Particles". New users will have to DL the wallet anyway and I know some user don't bother joining some giveaways because it is another wallet they'll have to download. With this new wallet everyone will join the giveawwy and they will tell their friends (look at this rad wallet!). When a new coin issues the best looking, most innovative wallet there is, all we have to do is get the word out. The rest will happen by itself. This wallet is a product/service that will sell itself in the long run. The best incentive for someone to download a wallet is something to fill it with. That's why I think a giveaway is the best way to promote a wallet

Moonmoon, when will you be releasing the wallet?

Or a beta? Will you be able to use a different coin daemon with the same wallet?

I think this would be something to look into if not. Then the source code doesn't necessarily have to be open immediately.

unless you wanted it to be...

Well code should be ready tomorrow night but there is release packaging/docs etc. to do to do it right.  I am also think of add some ease of use things that might need another day.

I have not really built with forethought to support other daemon, but I suppose would be possible with some modification.  Would probably be good idea to avoid clone wallet for some time but this can be managed

Shame

I was really interested in looking at how it could be modified like that.

the signature says:
I run this: http://totalprt.de-ge.so/ which supplies the total number of coins to coinmarketcap.com for Particle.

try to put PRT/BTC, PRT/LTC and/or PRT/USD value. That will make me (and hopefully many other people) constantly have http://totalprt.de-ge.so/ open in browser and phone.

and there it is, first idea for a simple phone app - show selected PRT/xxx value in notification bar on the phone 

and the other thing from your signature:
PartiCLepGX3Tjqo3mo19DbkAWawyJstLA
you are kidding me!  

Not kidding! That is seriously my address haha, if you want one just download vanitygen and generate your own! If you have any troubles I don't mind helping.

I'll possibly set up a webpage for that ("try to put PRT/BTC, PRT/LTC and/or PRT/USD value.") sometime soon if somebody else doesn't first.
I'm leaving totalprt.de-ge.so clean how it is so coinmarketcap can pull the data from it.

Sorry I can't send any coins, I'm terrible at holding onto coins apparently.. ^^'

What type promoting we can do?

Well, the easiest and something that we all can do: be active. Be active in this thread, be active in wallet thread, be active in http://forum.bitparticle.com, show support to Particle in any poll/vote thread that pops up. Also, try to write something more than "Please, add Particle!", add some info about the wallet, link to ANN thread or Particle website, place in coinmarketcap.com, screengrab of price in cryptocoincharts, your opinion, why you think this coin can go high. That way it wouldn't be a post with a name of another coin - something more inviting to dig deeper and maybe get hooked up.

I think good marketing activity would include things to gain broad awareness/publicity:

- comment on news articles with broad distribution e.g. forbes/businessinsider/etc. and include short blurb about Particle.  You don't have to drop links (might get flag as spam), just mentioning the software helps get awareness.
- Twitter
- Tumblr
- comment on blog posts
- comment on crypto related youtube videos
- comment on forex related youtube videos interest new trader
- reddit comments
- make short videos with webcam post to youtube (like fyrstikken does)
- Screenshots to instagram and pinterest
- start a blog and write blog posts about it

Would really like to engage more general public interest, and start grow outside of the niche crypto community.  Posting on threads here etc. is good to keep existing interest going, but need to grow the potential user base too.

Basic content marketing / social media marketing.  Engage people on Twitter etc. and casually mention Particle.

Also generating newsworthy events.  This would be like gaining an integration with coinpayments and similar services, we should be pushing hard for this.  Maximize utility for users.

Of course, I post this but I am terrible at keeping up with it, because too much code to write so I don't have time to sit on twitter etc.  But the community can!

Like in rise of the apes on FX channel last night, Caesar say one ape weak, many ape together strong.

edit:  Another place to maybe start to try to pull users/interest from are traders on investorshub.advfn.com.

I'm disappointed that you are watching apes documentary instead of coding!

Go apes!

posted a request to add it on CoinEx.pw:
https://coinex.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

I like that exchange. Hope they will have some space for it on their new server.
Like I read they get a lot of requests from other coins that are stuck on coinedup or other slow exchanges too.

I somehow think it would be better to have it added on coinex before such a heavy player like cryptsy so the coin can mature first.
(byway Coinex is on the best way to become a major exchange. I very like to trade there.)

There are so many reasons, why I'm so amused by this quote and the way moonmoon wrote it! Still inspiring, thou!

Looking for someone who can set up a mining pool for qrk based coins.
server is ready with root access for the one who is willing to do the job for 45k PRT.

need it to be able to run in a subpool configuration.

looking for coinmine.pl sort of clone with lesser amount of coins.

The ability to direct the pools combined power to a different external pool is a must. (this will only be used once the pool isnt generating enough hashing power to find blocks)

pools needed for the following coins:

QRK, PRT, MINI, PTS, DTC and MMC

stratum should be open on port 80.
Front end is a must
If you can do the job, please PM me

(looking for experienced coder)

Wish i could help you out bittick! Unfortunately i got no coding experience on this.

Are you planning an app that allows mining from the wallet that functions on this pool?

How many pools actually operate this way?

I dont think that any of them currently operate this way ;]
an app will be created as well of course if I get this set up soon enough...

[bittick]

also ypool.net ui would be amazing. I am willing to pay extra for a similar ui to that

I believe mmc is a different algorithm than quark.

[moonmoon]

MemoryCoin is the momentum algorithm.  But from the pool side it shouldn't matter its just brokering blocks.  If you are going to base on MPOS, I am planning to build example mining app that consumes mpos api, which give you a head start for custom app.
