It makes me angry that mintpal adds every fuc*in' shitcoin. It makes me hate that exchange more and more.
Everytime you have to watch this Pump & Dump shit, plus a bunch full of dead cryptos (like WC) while coins like Octo aren't being noticed.
I really hope Octo will be different. After hundreds of alts, it could still be the first one to be respected and making sense.
I would like to be able to respond to your post with +1 or +888 but since my status is newbie... they delete my post if its only a couple of characters lol. So now that I said that +1 888  |

I feel your pain - they need to have more discretion, in my opinion, when it comes to adding coins to their voting list. Octo will be different than all of the other "voted on" coins - this coin is the real deal. 3 months after the launch it's still maintaining an average hash rate of 300+ Mh/s with an active dev team and dedicated community despite minimal liquidity and poor exchange support. I met a couple of these guys at SXSW this year and they are already successful in their other ventures so I have no doubt there is some good stuff to come. They aren't approaching this as a "get rich quick" scheme like 99% of new alts - they're approaching it like a business. I have a project in the works myself that will involve OctoCoin in a significant way. The worst part about 888 is that it's nearly impossible to get my hands on a decent quantity of them! Hopefully a listing on MintPal will change that (I had no idea it was that high up the list). I will start voting for 888 from now on until it gets listed since Murraycoin is a long distance from the top and already being traded on Cryptsy. |

nice bholzer, i didn't know any of the community got to meet these guys at the now infamous SXSW festival. I hate to sound like a gossip queen, but i think we'd all love to know more about who's driving this coin forward. that being said, it's not business-savvy, so i think we're all good with that. i'll settle for some blurry shots of the parabolic flight  and as for mintpal, they earn their bread through volume, so to them it doesn't matter if a coin is PnD or not. But the voting is special, in a way it's the only exchange to be truly democratic like that, where any coin can get listed, and if it has the popular vote, then it wins. very presidential. also speaking of national politics, money talks and you can just buy your way to the top if getting the public on your side doesn't work lol. fact is mintpal gets paid in the coin they're trading, so if the coin tanks, then what they hold of value tanks too, unless they're up to the minute on every single pump happening and constantly selling off their own shares etc. which i highly doubt. They would stand to profit a lot more from a stable constant high volume coin, and i'm sure that's what they hope they'll get with the next voted coin, but that's rarely the case, however they still honour their system and add the #1 coin on the list every week, that to me is cool. And it's old news that Octo will blow these other clowncoins out of the water, i'm just trying to down-play it so people start selling some damn coins again! Mintpal has it's faults, but the voting system is not one of them IMO, can't hate on an actual open democratic system. it's kinda refreshing actually, one might say... minty? =p |

Correct. I think for many here Octo has been scary because you are used to buying pump and dump coins to make $ on the dump. With Octo even if you wanted to do that you couldn't really. At one point you did ok when it was listed on cryptorush but other than that it's stayed fairly the same price range and around the same volume. The good thing is that while it's been a slow process, you know that good things are coming once the apps are released. I think it's kinda exciting to be involved in a coin that's going to stand out. There are only handful that stand out and have had staying power. Some of those are still some of the OG alt coins too, like Litecoin, Peercoin and Namecoin. They have consistently stayed near the top of coinmarketcap and most have a fair amount of places that accept them as payment. Some like Doge have proven to be a mainstay and some like Darkcoin bring something new to the table and have had a quick, profitable rise. We will soon be able to guage where Octo will stand once we hit the larger exchanges and finally see some of the apps released! Don't Blink! |

I can't wait to see what you have planned for Octo... does it involve Mega or Murray with it?? |

I see the pool is doing a little better than as of recent weeks. That's good.
I've been behind the scenes, as always, working on stuff, but taken the last couple of days off to hang out with my kids, having a GTA: Ballad of Gay Tony marathon. Probably not the best thing to play with your kids, but they grew up on GTA, there's actually not much else they'd rather play, and gives us some common ground. That and the way their faces light up when I destroy cop cars with RPG's.
But anyway, back to business today. Apparently, one of my credit cards is missing. The one I get money for donating plasma, which I've been saving up on for the server payments. I don't know if I dropped it or if someone got in my wallet and took it (I suspect the former), but someone got it and had a good time with my savings! Either way, I managed the server bills regardless, just throws off my plans. Always something. Gotta go at some point today and find a new flash drive that won't get corrupted every other reboot for my mining rig, too. The Micro-SD card reader just isn't working too well for a live linux stick.
I have some updates planned for the pool in the next day or so, nothing major or will interrupt mining, but getting rid of that annoying ding sound every 5 blocks is a must. Don't know about you guys, but it is driving me mad.
