[GPUC] GPU Coin | Mandatory Wallet Update

[tylerderden]

 dude this coin works fine it does not need changed. the problem is exactly what vesper said a long time ago...marketing. this coin has things working against it with GPU's FINALLY coming  down in price, the only way to solve this problem is lower the price in the store. You have to look long term, yeah you may lose money in the beginning but you make it back later. also titan's on the horizon so between these issues alone people are not buying cards like they were last month, which sucks but that's the way it is. We have been hovering around top 5 for a week on profit charts so now you have mine and dumpers dumping it into the single satoshi range, you can see it when the graph has big stair steps in it, this is people dumping then lowering there price then dumping some more. The only way this works out for miners and the store is pricing the cards lower significantly then the competitors otherwise why would people bother if they can mine something else more profitable and buy cards with BTC? The only way this works is having things priced right and more volume. like right now, I need some risers, there aren't any to buy at the store. There are some in the market, which I ordered but haven't showed up and who knows if they will. You guys need volume. Drop the price, sell some cards, create a buzz and demand to use the store or the coin will go to 1 satoshi and we all lose. Changing the coin at this point with the already rocky start of this coin is not a good idea. If it were me I would sell some 280's at $250 or less (there have been some competitors selling around this price lately and selling out fast) this is just like any other business, money talks. people don't care about anything else.

FWIW, you're not investors, you're early-buyers. Not to like slap you in the face or anything, but that's just the case. You're an investor if you're getting dividends and returns directly from the company, which you're not. You gave them money to have early access to bulk coin.

Your 'investment' is in the value of the coin.

Yes I have heard this argument before, but I am going to continue using the word 'investor' because that is the word Jaymes used during the fundraising.  And because he described us as being 'investors' I will continue to act as an investor.

Regardless of technicalities, in spirit we are investors.  This is what we were offered and paid for.  It is not my fault Jaymes used loaded words such as 'investor' and 'ipo'.  He should treat us as investors.

Another problem right now is if you go on Amazon and search for 280x cards, almost all of them are cheaper than the GPUCoin store 280x.

I was a little confused at first and had to do some research to find out that the Toxic just happens to be a more expensive card.
Most consumers will not know this though, they will just see it as not as good of a deal.

For the next round you might want to get some regular 280x cards, not some overclocked special version.  You can have special editions but you should have a 280x that compares to the standard sold on the market.

Cryptorush is dying or already dead.
Gpucoin is actually currently trading on Bittrex with laughable volume. We need 2.1684 BTC to push the price up to 34 satoshi.
Maybe we can do it ourselves to save our positions as a community and do it exactly before gettiing on bigger exchange which of course will happen soon on later.
Then the pumped price on the lower exchange will go on on the bigger exchange but there will be more stable.
Just my 2 GPUs.

I am wondering is this coin going to be dead soon or still alive when bitcoin @ 500?

Ill give you an idea, why doesn't the CEO and team offer people gpucoins for any ideas that you use, then we might be more prepared to offer our services. As right now, there are other coins that also have potential.

This is my suggestion and i wait to tell you a couple of ideas, but only a couple.

As I said before in one of my old posts. GPU demand is going down, we need to have a better marketplace with other merchandise as well to garner interest from other people. Gift cards at a discount, other merchandise etc etc and more and more marketing. A successful company is one with good advertising.

Also if others can put items on the marketplace we need to make the buyer feel safe when the transaction goes through.

We had competitions for this already, that gave coins out. If the community and people really cares, why would you need to get paid to give out ideas that might save the coin?

If you have ideas, talk about it, get it used.

Here is an example of what I would like to see done with GPU Coin.  This is also what i wish, and still hope GPUCoin team will create a business plan upload it, then update up on progress maybe twice a week.  

Anyways take a look at it.  I put some time into it.  It is not complete, and I didn't put any numbers for prices as I don't exactly know them.  Also unsure how much money IPO raised for I put $60,000 but in general the number is meaningless since I put it mostly in percentage.

I wish I could just post it but it's too big.  Some grammar etc probably off, but i wasn't about to put too much extra time as I'm unsure if it will even get looked at much.

Anyways take it easy.

I'm still mining GPUC because investment, support, and daily mining profits aren't worth it to me enough to worry about (yay new high paying job ).

We're not completely dead in the water, still top 100ish on coinmarketcap, and there's plenty of coins below us still being mined...

GPUs are still going to be purchased, even just for gaming. If there could be a way for non mining persons (PC Gamers) to buy GPUC and go through the store, it would be real helpful. Perhaps a service where someone requests the purchase and the coin is auto purchased from exchange and provided to them with a temporarily wallet, at a fee a couple percent greater than the exchange and transfer costs. The viability of this would still depend on much greater marketing and public awareness.

Your kidding right, gamers hate miners..

The best people right now GPUc needs to attract are the buyers on the exchange

I like what you 've done there. Probably James or someone from the team should take a look at it.

Im not saying competitions, they are ok, but suggestions that will help the coin. Remember we are not the main beneficiaries of the coin the CEO and DEVs are.. So why not pay for our ideas.

Two ways to promote the coin that comes to my mind is:

-Promote a coin through https://twitter.com/ThisWeeksCoin/ and http://thisweekscoin.com
-Create a tweet that promotes the coin and then run a giveaway where everyone who retweets it, gets some amount of GPUC coins and the amount would depend on how many followers the person has.

Why?? I'm a PC gamer, I actually use a GTX680 for gaming and mining simultaneously, while in the same PC using a 5970 for mining.

Gamers like mining because it gives them free $ for the expensive cards they're already buying/using for gaming. Makes no sense that they'd hate mining.

[madbit1000]

I wouldn't relaunch either. Choose the right fork and implement it in a new wallet. Everyone has to update. Some will lose their coins, some not.

I would definitely relaunch.  It looks like too many coins where being issued, and only to a few miners.

This guy spotted issues with coin distribution on time, check the date of the quote.. if only someone listened to him, but he was ignored..

This was from the first coin launch, the figures were fixed, i mentioned having the n-scrypt But no one listened..

Other than the fact that it raises the price on AMD cards, why would they hate? I posted about mining on FB and got at least four of my friends to start using their gaming GPUs to mine. I really don't see a point or real reason in gamers hating miners at all.

I mean.. come on, we're supporting the industry and pushing forward advancement in GPUs.

EDIT: Nvidia is better for gaming anyways 

[micryon]

Well I await response from Jaymes or thru Walt on how to proceed forward here on the coin.. I am here to support the coin side on whatever changes are required...

[madbit1000]

for a gamer who is not interested in destroying their GPU's have rebelled against the miners mainly due to the huge price increases they have received when trying to purchase a new GPU model.

Not everyone wants to mine coins. They are gamers, and true to gaming and thats it.
