So BlackCoin hired an entire PR Agency to manage marketing. This must be a first in crypto.

Not just any PR Agency, but the Max Borges Agency (www.maxborgesagency.com)!

Now look at their credentials.... BlackCoin is not messing around here. Litecoin I think is a realistic target.

i wasn't convinced about the pr-campaign, but when i see those brands, i think we are on the good track

It's your fault

Jup, an amazing list of companies that went before us!

Hmm, Thinkgeek...

wouldn't that be a interesting place/shop for some BC-gimmicks?

[Astroxjr]

Are we going to see the transfer evidence that $30k was sent to them ?

Indeed, Blackcoin being seen out there in the tech world as an actual brand as opposed to just another alt-coin will be massive, as well as crucial if we are to stand out from our competitors.

Bear in mind though that this doesn't mean we can sit on our asses and watch everything magically come to life - while we have a professional PR firm working for us and ready to assist us, I would urge everyone excited about this to think of an idea for a press release/article or to write one yourself and submit it to Soepkip to really give this campaign some community push.

All the copycats and fakers in the world don't mean shit if you have a shit hot community willing to put the work in.

I'm just waiting for USA and Rest of America to wake up, dump, to buy into Cinni, so that I can buy in some cheap BC

Hey guys,

This is something I brought up in IRC, and it kind of just got a positive response so I decided to make it official. I was kind of just musing out loud, and people seemed to dig the idea, and even started putting up BC prizes.
So I am proud to present to you :

RED VS BLUE TURNS BLACK - THE FIRST EVER BLACKCOIN COMMUNITY TEAM FORTRESS 2 TOURNAMENT!


I thought this would be a pretty fun way to blow off some Steam after all the stuff that had happened this weekend. This is purely for the community, and is purely for fun.

I want to hold the tournament some time next weekend, so we have some time to hype it up, and get some parties interested. I was thinking we can do something like a team style ladder match, or brackets or something. I'll let the community decide on what kind of tournament they want to see, but I suggest you guys start forming your teams right now.
Ideally teams would consist of 8 people, so that every position on each side could be utilized. I understand this may be a big number, and if we don't get enough sign ups, we can lower this, but I think this number is good. No duplicate roles on a team (i.e. you can't have more than 1 medic, more than 1 heavy etc...)

Absolutely everyone is welcome to sign up, newbies and vets, I personally have not played in about a year, and have been looking for an excuse to play a few rounds again.

I will keep this thread updated with information and team sign ups as the days progress. Some people have already expressed interest in donating hardware as well as other things to the tournament for prizes. If you are interested in donating hardware or anything else please contact either myself or Soepkip.

If you wish to donate BC please do so at this address (100% of the donations will go to tournament prizes) BTmcv3pGw5uuYJShL9PNfRTU9UJ4oA82yG

I'll get the ball rolling and throw in 100 of my own BC, and I believe user Dibdab has pledged 100 coins as well. I will keep this list updated with information as it progresses about prizes and tournament structure.

Current Prize Pool:
600 BC

Here is the official reddit thread for the tournament.

since they already pumped it up more than 100% (for no reason at all) i'd be rather scared to buy in now.
Haven't put a single SAT into all those BC clones so far, though...

Hey Soepkip,

are you going to release the pro-forma invoice or transaction details for the money wired to the PR firm ?

BlackCoin is a slow burner. Slowly but surely massive milestones are being hit. While mostly BC is still in the small crypto community the price will fluctuate - but those lows are getting higher. This is a result of investors holding their blackcoins. Speculators will become less and less significant to the price as time progresses.

Look at litecoin and it's steady price. It's now mostly held by large investors. Those investors need to put their money somewhere and as litecoin's life comes to an end BlackCoin is perfectly poised to take that position.

Hi, this is organised by dognip/ morituri13. I am pretty sure he can do that, and blur out any personal details if required..

I will forward this post to him when I see him.

You sound like those guys enjoying their cheap BTC coins from December till now.

Be careful what cheap coins might bring

[Soepkip]

Please, the old Blackcoin topic need to redirect on this one.
We've lost a lot of visibility.

I have messaged the mods 2 times now, still have to receive an answer sadly.

Interested in investing in BlackCoin?

Then you need to perform your "Due Diligence"!

First, I recommend you head over to Reddit where you will find a structured and relaxed atmosphere. Many of the developers and community management are there to answer your questions.

http://www.reddit.com/r/blackcoin/

Next I recommend BlackCoinTalk, this is a forum setup specifically focused on BlackCoin. This again is populated by all core team members, developers and community managers.

http://www.blackcointalk.com/

Finally, give the official BlackCoin.co site a visit where you can download the latest version of the BlackCoin wallets.

Blackcoin will be part of a tv documentary that will be shown in Finnish national tv in beginning of 2015. The reporter will follow me and my endeavors with BC during 2014.

First interview and filming was this morning, and we will continue later this evening for the first part. I hope we can see a lot of happy faces during summer, when we go above 1$ and beyond

All get on teamspeak and discuss stuff in 3 hrs so it looks like we are actually doing something LOL

Hey. Idea. Why don't we try to contact some of the vendors to add support for payment via BC? It'd be a great way to have joint publicity as I'm sure the PR campaign for a crypto coin is going to insane enough as it is. Let's build on that hype. V-Moda, Schosche, AOC, LifeProof, Philips, MSI (For gods sake they make the boards for most of the miners), Archos, Blue-Ant. And, most obviously, Think Geek. All excellent tech companies with great products that would help BC's image.

Thoughts?
