+1. I guess the best help we can be at the moment is to try to think of ideas to promote Noble and try to keep things positive, I know that is what I am trying to do...
If anyone would like to chime in/have an idea they want to start remember we're more than happy to fund it out of the reserves ourselves. We just can't be on top of everything all the time, so any time someone has an idea they'd like to push we love 'funding' it with NOBL.
I may be in the minority, but I've always viewed the marketplace as being much more notable than the coin itself. Using the coin as a marketing tool to get people to use the marketplace may work better than trying to get folks interested in the coin directly.
I agree, it gives us a good edge w/ real world use and something that makes us worth actually using. marketplace.noblemovement.com is always there. There are actually a lot more things these days you can buy with BTC, and we're transferring them all over @ 15% discount. Coinbase/BTC started promoting % discounts to promote real-world use a couple of months back, but we're still way ahead of them on that department in terms of amount and longevity.
I also liked that old 'partner coin' idea, where by just holding Noble, investors get freebie coins of different flavors. I assume that idea has been put on the back-burner for now.
Still coming. It's not right doing any sort of IPO or second partner coin until NOBL is a success (in before never jokes), as we'd like it to look like we're strengthening NOBL rather than leaving it.
Hello
Yes, been very common since May or so now. A lot of miners & multipools jump on the PoW coins and take as best advantage as they can. It doesn't help we're still relatively profitable and a natural target to boot. PoS will change that.
I can't do much to support the price or hashing, and I'm a small holder anyway, but I can commit to having a couple staking wallets 24/7 on servers to help secure the PoS.
Cheers, we got a lot in store to promote PoS staking & security - we just have to dust ourselves off first.
Already spent all my money supporting Noble. Now I have tons of Noble and can't support it Sad Need more BTC!
I'm the same. I will buy a few more today, but can't keep going.
Remember not to feel obliged to buy any NOBL even as it drops unless you're comfortable. This is a bad bear market right now especially for us and vol/prices are down across the board. The price still bothers me more than I should let it. It's not up to us to prop up the price alone but I think use cases and getting others to trade/consider holding some helps more.
Is the IRC pretty inactive lately or does everyone just stop talking when I enter?
It's generally quiet more often than not, minus the regular visit from GrandMaster to talk smack lol. I was actually surprised that a lot of chans are pretty quiet, although some are quite active.
We should look into some of the things other coins are doing like pandacoin's IRC lottery system to liven up the community.
Go for it, happy to cover the costs, promote as well as pay if we can get another community initiative or two going.
NOTICE: Please be aware that NOBL deposits require 999 confirms due to 51% attacks on the blockchain. Is this something new??
Been there forever, for a long time we were apparently the only coin to suffer 51%s on their site, even once or twice with the 999 confirms.
I thought Twitter was a favorite of P&Ders. rofo does tweet out a lot, but not to pump or dump NOBL. I don't think he would like to get into that space, honestly.
Yeah I'm all over Twitter about news for NOBL & crypto. since that's where everyone is. State of the current scene though means it's mostly noise next to everyone just fishing for and promoting price/pump targets.
Once it goes PoS, I'm unsure who it will cater to in regards to new holders.
I think we can agree unfortunately catering to miners hasn't done us any favours. I know who we'll be catering though, a few other people do too. We've got plenty of marketplace rewards and promotions in mind for rewarding holders & staking.
