here's my 2 lgc.
i wouldn't worry too much about being listed on additional exchanges right now.
with the flood of asic miners looming just around the corner, gpu miners will be looking to point their existing hashrate elsewhere.
x11 is without a doubt the best alternative to scrypt.
what this means is that there will plenty of x11 multipools popping up to accommodate these converted miners.
there is already one x11 multipool that i know of
http://www.coinmine.pw although they do not yet have logicoin.
if you've been following this thread, you may have noticed a post by louiseth1 from suchpool that kind of went unnoticed.
we will add it on our coin soon to be x11 switcher pool too!
in order for all these new x11 miners and multipools to succeed, there is one thing they will need. plenty of exchanges for their coins.
i think you guys can figure out the rest from here.
mine, hold and be patient. you will be greatly rewarded.
This is true and a relative inevitability, but it's a fine line. We're currently swinging back and forth around 1ghash (the network is actually the lowest I've seen since launch right now). Hash has gradually decreased since launch in proportion to profitability on Poloniex. There was a nice little pump there yesterday that brought us up to .00002999, still a garbage amount, but almost double where we are now. The lower the hash, the less lgc/btc value there needs to be to make it profitable.
If we want to stay off multipool radar, our holding hash - that is, those of us that are mining to hold through these high reward months, has got to stay far above pump & dump profitability. In other words, the best way to not get stabbed by a multipool is to generate interest from more long-haul miners. And the best way to do that I think is to encourage a dedicated community from the get go and develop some long term goals for this coin that we consistently work towards.
And I think the question that really needs answering is 'What are they going to be used for?'
So, with that in mind, how about we aim for something a little different, beyond the cut & paste 'merchant' 'auction site' 'vps' accepting coins thing. What if we built some simple games, or customized existing open source games, and tied the 'game currency' to logicoin, either directly or by exchange? Think from being able to buy boosts or extra lives with lgc in a puzzle game, items and improvements in an online rts game, all the way to 'extras' in an MMO (which, iirc, has been done, albeit rather poorly).
People spend big money on gaming. Even silly, simple games, as long as they're fun. It'd take some time to develop, but I think that's what we should be after - something that will take some time to develop.
