[AC] AsiaCoin | Pure PoS | 100% Interest

[ORiN]

Google trend comparison of different coins:

We and BlackCoin are leading the race. It is very important that we get the word out about what we are doing, if you have contacts at weblogs covering cryptocurrency, news agencies, Twitter with a lot of followers, etc. Please, help us get the word out, motivate them to publish articles about us. We need it.

Lol, kudos +1 to you for pulling this out. Yeah, I live in Asia and I know some shops that receives Bitcoin as payment just for the sakes of free marketing/PR.

I can imagine how straightforward it would be to just walk out and talk to them to accept Asiacoin where several thousands of visitors come to our official site everyday with more and more people hearing about this coin in the coming months.

This may not be easy but once you overcome the tipping point... it just snowballs.

I agree with Whatzhub that support from small-time merchants will increase the chance of long term value appreciation. Since there is no actual payment processor for AsiaCoin yet, that is an area that need to be explored. I will look into accepting AsiaCoin for my tiny online store. I have seen online stores that offered a fixed exchange rate which I think may not be a bad idea if we have enough merchants to help justify that exchange rate.

The community wrote 150 pages (100pages old thread and 50 pages new thread) from the moment it proved what old dev made. There are only 4days! We would have now 10k sat for 1 AC. Let's do it all together now with full confidence to new Dev team!

Good idea

In case people are wondering, this is the current status of exchanges regarding our patch:


C-Cex
(installed our wallets, trades are active, deposits/withdrawals are on hold)

Bter.com
Plath.net
Swaphole
(all installed our wallets, trades/deposits/withdrawals are on hold)

Coin-Swap
Cryptsy
Mintpal
Bittrex
CryptoALTeX
Poloniex
(all reviewing source code, trades/deposits/withdrawals are on hold)

maestro appreciate very much work on project here

there is a small detail do not like : graphic style on landing page http://www.thecoin.asia/

1.dark gloomy colour. this would project gloom and uncertainty

2.hard to understand symbolic ( pianist ? guy seen from behind ? subway ? ) Is such pianist and such subway somewhere in Asia?

not looking much further : on x-labs video http://www.xlabstudio.com/video_asiacoin/asiacoin_video(2).webm
there is a lot of screenshoots which look more attractive than current landing page of http://www.thecoin.asia/

someone might find better yet design for landing page but already x-labs style would be much more attractive

good improvement would be also : more links to specific posts on our btalk ( as brilliant Google Trends chart an so on ) few people would go through 50 subpages

I agree with Whatzhub that support from small-time merchants will increase the chance of long term value appreciation. Since there is no actual payment processor for AsiaCoin yet, that is an area that need to be explored. I will look into accepting AsiaCoin for my tiny online store. I have seen online stores that offered a fixed exchange rate which I think may not be a bad idea if we have enough merchants to help justify that exchange rate.

Fixed exchange rate is very nice, but it's very difficult to get merchants to accept it, even LTC/BTC can't get fixed exchange rate at most places (hell, even BTC/USD can't). I think it's important to reach to different stores/payment services to get them to agree to accept Asia Coin when it's relisted for trade (i.e. has a demonstrable exchange rate for high volume trades).

Small online stores are good (online software/gaming/gambling/etc websites can be easily persuaded). We should focus on two things, (1) stores that already accept some sort of altcoins (or at least bitcoin), and (2) stores that provide service within Asia as we can market it better.

In the meantime, there are two places which we should focus heavily on, AltOutlet.com and WoodWallets.io.

We also need to put some bounties (hopefully when the foundation is rich ) for some services that add value to Asia Coin:

• Android wallet
• Paper wallet
• Some graphics (wallpaper, phone wallpaper, Twitter/Facebook cover photos/Inspirational Asia Coin pictures with people/etc)
• Small merchant bounties

Any other ideas are welcome, as we're now planning for the future. If you can help, even better! Remember guys, Asia Coin is a community now, it will take all of us to make it a huge success.

By the way, I am slowly sharing the new wallets with even more people at this thread (and a few on Twitter). We are still waiting for major exchanges to upgrade their wallets, after that we will announce the public release!

When they will reopen it?

They are both reviewing the source code now, we have specifically asked them to do their tests/review as thoroughly as possible, even a line by line comparison with BlackCoin or CinniCoin (other reliable PoS coins) would be preferred.

I contacted them for possible ETA, and will let everyone know as soon as I get a respond.

I've not been following the thread entirely, could you clarify how the new wallet will work?

I.E. I have some AC still left in my wallet at Bittrex - will this amount just carry over to the new version once everything is activated etc?
