Developer Note March 20, 2014. Day 9.Where we are:1. Relatively smooth launch in week 1, no major issues so far
2. Difficulty has dropped down since mining pools have gone onto other new cryptocoin launches
3. Awareness of EduCoin is low, especially among students, schools, or education media*
*Right now we are seeing several noob comments like, "Is this coin
dead?", "Why is it just one satoshi?", or "Why is nobody buying it???" and we have to remind everyone that we are just getting started. We see a very clear road ahead for this digital currency to disrupt education in positive and interesting ways. With that said EduCoin is in its earliest stage, often called a stealth phase in the digital currency lifecycle. Each of you reading this forum is an early adopter. It is a great opportunity to mine and hold this coin. It is an even better opportunity to think about, discuss, and develop novel ways in which EduCoin could be used in education.
What we are working on. Please join us!:-Updating the website for more functionality and content
-Updating the educoin subreddit for functionality and content
-Building a database of media contacts for future media release
-Monitoring the votes for getting added to Cryptsy and/or Mintpal. Thanks u/mostlyr!
-...and more
