[ANN] [ASIC-RESISTANT] UltraCoin (UTC) - Ultrafast 6 second transactions!!

Whenever you give a service or sell something it has to got an added value to get into the market. DOGE has its popularity as you state. What will be the added value from UltraCoin? Is for all us guys here to define that added value. The coin is really fast for transactions and it is really decentralized, and I like it because my rigs stay at a decent temperature because the N-Factor. (Still I would like it will be less agressive). So in my humble opinion, first we have to decide what we want the coin to be, and then make a market campaign on it.

This is important - we need to decide what we want the coin to be, then promote it, then build what is needed. Some thoughts on how its advantages could be promoted, in a less-technical way:

1. Create a video that shows a bitcoin transaction and a UTC transaction executed at the same time, with a clock showing time elapsed
2. Host a google hangout (or some other live interactive session) to talk about POS and how it works and take questions
3. Host a twitter (or IRC) chat and take questions about scrypt-jane mining and its peculiarities

What I like about this community is how everyone seems to want to help each other. How great would it be if more people were a part of that? The last two ideas above would appeal to anyone interested in POS and scrypt-jane, and could introduce a whole new group of people to UTC.

Giving reasons or providing people with a rationale is not bad.
If you want more out of this coin you need to give people envy. Envy is irrational, envy is vital, and most of it: envy is viral...
The best part is that people don't expect explanations when they've got envy. They want it, they want to snatch it and keep it.
You just want them to jump in and feel good about it.
That's marketing.
Where is the marketing team for this coin?
There hasn't been any since the begining besides lame attempts at trying to gather some buddies around exchanges.

This coin is not going to shine if strategy is not changed.
So far this venture has proven useless and costly to me on the ground that no value has been accrued at all, quite the contrary.

We keep on losing and destroying value because we cannot retain money within, which in turn affects the morale of troups, which in turn often come up with ever absolutely more stupid mind numbing considerations like "being positive", "hoping", "knowing" etc.
We're getting dangerously close to the last of the series: "believing". Are we a church or what?
In other terms stupid religious-like arguments that neither demonstrate nor build anything. They just convince he who is already convinced and that's all. In short in makes fanatics out of a few which pushes even more the average joe out of the game.
This is a vicious circle, the vicious circle of losers.

The last step before getting raped into oblivion will be the guru who will use the believers of the saint church of the ultracoin to pump and dump them out of their wealth. Then we'll get another fine case study of TRC and FTC and whatever else.

Then again, to get out of this pit we need strongly committed devs that will intelligently pitch the coin and make it at least a bit more hype.

Say what you want about hype but we won't attract anyone if the thing's not attractive.

Last, but not least: 50s comic cartoon with supermen likes are nice, yes. But they will not attract women who don't care about this and prefer dogs instead. So try to find a concept that pleases everybody and not just a couple of nerds otherwise you're going to lose it.

  ** Nailed it! +10 **

Hate to sound like the Key Maker here, but UTC needs a purpose...at least a short-term one....something tangible would be nice.  Gambling seems like a popular way to go for a lot of new coins; is a dice or casino site taking UTC a possibility? As much as I love buying sex toys with crypto, how about expanding those offerings for things like ohh...Pizza and shitty energy drinks? Seems like if we really want to prove the real value of UTC and play the envy card here we should be bundling or developing useful services so UTC an advantage right out of the proverbial box.

Any ideas for extending the UTC ecosystem, beyond just giving money with Promos. How about buying some UTC t-shirts and giving those away instead? Maybe some bumface bobbleheads. Just some thoughts.

Cheers!

Ha - I believe it. I've been buying at 8 and selling at 9 all day, will keep doing that till it isn't any good anymore. I don't hold any coins for long (except UTC atm and a couple of others that look promising).

I just found this rather useful website - http://coinfinance.com by following @CryptoShortNews on Twitter yesterday. Ultracoin is listed as well so why not sign-up and then Twitter your experience along the lines of the following which I tweeted:

"Discovered @CoinFinance_Com from a post by @CryptoShortNews & like the ability to track my altcoins, especially my newest #UTC / #Ultracoin"

Hoping that it might get re-tweeted by @Coinfinance_Com and @CryptoShortnews

Do you think MCXNOW is a good exchange to trade UTC? The have been online since may 2013 and have over 30 000 accounts. There volume on max coin is over 300 BTC. I did send them a email a few days ago: mcxnow.exchange@gmail.com to ask what there policies are to accept new coins and with some background info about UTC. I haven’t received a answer yet, lets all let them know how great UTC is and mail or tweet to MCXNOW.

I've asked aswell, realsolid was going to take a look at it, but I didn't hear back from them.
It's a great and fluent exchange, so it would be great if UTC would be added...

Yea the MCXNOW traders don't have decent-outlook coins to trade atm, I think they would be happy to invest in UTC if the coin is doing well when it gets listed...

There's tons of money on that Exchange, look at Max's richlist, people with 70,000 max for instance.

I will email them again, it would be a great exchange for UTC. what other actions can we take to get UTC noticed at MCXNOW?

[Jarod1231]

Reminder, there's still this song contest:
http://forum.ultracoin.net/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=22

U can earn 800 UTC by writing two songs, which for creative minds shouldn't take to long!
Easy money and spreading the music would be great for UTC.

I plan on doing it but haven't gotten around to it yet.. maybe tomorrow if I'm not working I'll crank something out  

[zhangxpc]

there is a new exchange :https://comkort.com/market/trade/utc_btc,so add it to the list,pls

Cool! I tweeted RealSolid about UTC again, @TheRealSolid if u wonna do the same

Nice!

MCXNow has a great trollbox, btw, although realsolid can be quite "harsh" (to say the least, I tried to think of a nice way to say that, that's the best I could come up with). They HATE btc-e, though, so that might be interesting.

Also - see what I just put in my signature. We need to take every opportunity to promote this coin that we can.

[Halofire]

Tweet this, vote for that.
Not gonna change UTC that way, if that was going to help, it would have started to show results.
I'm not trying to FUD, troll or be negative, I speak truth no matter the consequences. Its called being honest.
Nothing special about this coin, atm. 

The one time I actually get deeper into a coin than just mining and selling, it didnt' change a thing. Have fun and good luck. I will be selling my coin if/when it comes back up, or i'll hold it for a year to possibly collect.... Too bad PoS isn't a guaranteed interest gainer either, your wallet(node) gets the "chance" of gaining interest and ya gotta leave computer on with wallet open. Pfft. Kinda like you get the "chance" to find a block when solo mining. More hidden info, just like n-factor when it hit, no one knew what it really meant.

Been with UTC for a month, longest i've been with a coin before moving on, never again unless I see potential. It had its chance. losing 75% of its value since CT and still maintaining that loss: not my idea of a profitable coin, regardless of mining. Everyone argues: all cryptos are down. If it were that great of a coin, it wouldn't matter what the rest of cryptos are doing. example: auroracoin and marscoin. Even if it hits cryptsy, with no plans, no action, i don't see UTC going very far in 1 month, 2 month, 1 year. For that matter, i don't see any coins doing well, unless they become UNIQUE and have PURPOSE. Even Aurora coin will pittle out. 

Heed my warning if you guys really do care about your precious ultracoin: Grease some real world palms, get the coin where it needs to be in the real world beyond your computer screens and mouse clicks. This coin is far from golden, and won't go anywhere by people saying/doing "I'm not paying off people to get it where it needs to be". i didnt know UTC was so special it could get into the VIP part of the crypto world cuz someone says it should be there, letting it 'earn' its way in by not paying for a 'membership', especially cuz UTC is just like every other coin.... If i had more than 2.5k utc, I might be inclined to promote UTC with people/merchants in my area, but it's just tooooooo easy to just switch to another coin to make some serious money.

Sorry utc isn't working out bumface, dev another coin, take UTC as practice and learn from these mistakes. i'm not saying abandon UTC as a dev, wouldn't look good for your next coin. Get merchants before you allow the public to mine. Explain to the merchants there is no volatility if they sell the coin as soon as they get it or they can use Reggie's (black man, don't know his last name, maybe Middleton?) "goldman sachs" whenever that opens up. Don't be a new "nation" with a new currency that you can't do anything with except sell it for other "nations" currencies.

Anything worth 3x the price of LTC within less than a month of release = pump and dump.

Can't make it more simple than that.

Also, about UTC+Mintpal, I think the two whales/bots are doing us a favour and helping keep the price stable.
Still holding in the 0.00012-14 range.


Yesterday I also asked cdev from CT about re-opening date, there's nothing official atm, it could very well take 3 weeks

About MintPal - you might be right but they sure screwed things up for little traders like me

On it.  Been getting the tweets out today.  Will be getting a bunch more in by the end of the day.  May I ask what exactly do facebook follows and likes do?  How exactly does that give exposure?
