Coinye West - Promotional Ideas - 50m to give away

[coinyewest]

Hey guys, Coinye's main guy here. I've never actually come here and posted, I was letting someone else run this account, as I was incredibly busy.

We made a mistake by spreading out the work too thin. Also, I think the 0.37% percent split premine between the devs was too much. I thought because of the hype, that it'd be okay.

I'd like to clarify something, though - I didn't even get a chance to mine my own coin at launch. I ordered a couple 7970s from tigerdirect in preparation, and they didn't get the motherboard to me in time. So about 15 mins before launch i powered down my desktop and tried to stick one of the new cards in there to replace my r270, but it wouldnt fit. I'm not sure who mined those 2b coins in the first few minutes (http://coinyechain.info/chain/Coinyecoin), but it was probably one of the pools we gave the source to a few mins early.

We put the download link up and within 3-5 seconds the entire site and the mirrors we had going all been hammered out of existence. I resized all the secondard cloud instances to 4 times their size. Because of that, I shut down the official pool. I mined on yepool.pw for a few minutes, and when I checked it again, it was dead. I kept switching pools and they all kept going down. I think I mined about 12,000 coins overnight, with my single midrange card.

Anyway. So far we have the crazy media hype, a list of 6,000 email subscribers I haven't had time to contact, and two casino games at:

http://coinyecasino.com
and
http://coinye-dice.org/

I'm personally working on some Texas Hold Em and I'll try and get this up soon.

We also have a guy from the IRC doing in person interviews at BBC radio saturday, and I have some more email interviews this weekend.

We're still working on the coinyeminer thing - we couldnt get it done in time. When that hits, I can email all the subscribers and hopefully get a lot of new people on board.

So, my reason for this post is, I want to give out like half of what I have, and I'm going to ask the other devs to consider doing the same.

I want to give away 50 million COYE to improve this coin. I'd like to do bounties, lotteries, drawings, promotions, and give some to the general public. I hope we will get on an exchange.

Can you guys help with ideas, perhaps offer some work for bounties, or any other general advice?

Thank you!

Bounty for android light wallet app please

Just do a cartoon on youtube, about coiney fish.  

About media aspect, it's already done more (lawsuit), than anything you can throw (promote) on media list.

[jawnfu]

the single most common thing i've seen on these forums are folks saying it'll never hit an exchange due to the legal issues with it.  to me, you've made enough modifications to coinye that circumvents all that and though it resembles something to kanye's likeness, it in fact isn't.  coinye is more southpark/gayfish inspired then anything at this point haha

convincing coinholders/exchanges of this should allow coinye to gain a lot more traction

oh and some blackjack coinye would be awesome.

just my 2 cents

Great idea!

It's been late. But you are up with the mark.

1. Promotion is most important for any crypto coin.
a. Giveaways are ok, however, it will not only help.
b. Encourage people to use coye. Make it an important one in crypto. Brainstorm will help.
c. Add coye to exchanges as fast as possible. Without coin being traded in exchanges, there will be no or little investors.

2. Let people to write/create/design/code for you. [Again, giveaways only will help]

3. Take time and give a write up about explaining the purpose, need of the coin from yourside like What made you to think and create this coin? People with similar idea will join you.

4. Make a comparative study with btc, ltc and other coins on the race with coye. Prepare one whitepaper for each coin and find out how such coins evolve from the basic stage?

Thinking a while. Might join later.

Good luck

Thanks for the replies. I've barely left my place all week and I need to do a few things, but after this list builds up I'll come back and reply to everything.

Seriously, the ONLY thing that matters right now is getting it on a exchange.  After that you can worry about everything else. People won't use a coin that there is no exchange for.  Yes you can send it from one person to another.  But lets be honest here, most of the miners who are throwing all this power to the network want money/another coin.  If their is no way for them to do that, people take their hashing power elsewhere and the coin loses credibility because there is no one is mining it.  It is kinda the chicken and egg issue.

You have to show all of us that this coin is not a scamcoin. Use those premined coins for giveaway and promos. Make it big if you want people to use it. The more coins there are around, the more transcations and hype there will be. I got scammed by pool owner, and now everyone says this coin is a scam. Proove us wrong.

Give those premined coins away and im all yours!

Also, anyone who has sent me PMs I will answer them later today. Sorry that I didnt see them earlier.

More Coinye based services! Texas hold em would be great.

Roll on the devs, set up some bounties with that 50mill and I'll glady work towards some of them.

Coinye dice looks nice btw.

Edit: It does need to be on a larger exchange however sites like: http://newchg.com/waluty/coinye-coin/ have already picked it up, just need cryptsy or vircurex to reach the sky.

[cryptocoiner]

PR is the main thing here. I also afraid many exchangers will not take this coin because of legal issues. But chinese exchangers maybe will. 50kk of something that worth just a small fraction of a penny is not too much. So the point is to draw a media attention to this. But hey, its already happened. May be a comment from a Cainye West himself will help to promote the currency? Look what happened with dogecoins. Developer didn't do anything ppl did everything.

Start guestposting on those huge news site. Ask(bribe *cough*) those editors to post more articles about coinye, there's atleast a couple country based news site that has decent local traffic. You already have a few from theverge and etc, start picking up those big boys news site and eventually those smaller mid sized sites will pick it up, since they mostly rely on those authority sites for content more exposure more buzz. Get buzzbundle and have someone sit over it and reply to brand alerts, it will probably attract conversations which leads to more exposure to the brand. Since conye is hot right now, dont let the fire die..
