Starting tomorrow morning, both me and
MaWo are going to concentrate on the people left out, left behind and robbed by that lurking hacker who stole from several NFDers. I'm going to start on the PMs tomorrow morning, and clean up as best I can. That might take all day tomorrow. Then I'm going to mass-PM everyone on the distribution list to make sure they got their coins, and ask if anyone has any trouble or issues. Unfortunately, there have been a few rough edges to this launch because of NFD's unique character. Quite a few people simply gave up on NFD once
NFDCoin had robbed us all back in May. Some of them didn't respond to my previous mass-PMs. Once they see that NFD is "for real," they might take an interest only to find that they threw away or forgot their passphrase. So there has to be a bit of a cleanup period and find-out-where-everyone-stands survey.
But after that, the plan is to get NFD listed! The two most viable targets are Dgex and Poloniex - but to get NFD on Poloniex, I'm going to need a lot of help.
At the same time as the vote drive gets rolling, I'll be setting up the social-networking presences for NFD. We've got ourselves a real coin, and I'm going to be spreading the word! And you can too! Once I have each page set up, I'll announce it here. At a minimum, NFD will be on Facebook, Twitter, Reddit and LinkedIn - maybe Pinterest if I can figure it out.
The most immediate stage in the plan, once the post-launch cleanup is done, will be getting NFD on an exchange and getting the word out!
But that doesn't mean the entire team is going to turn into a bunch of flacks.
There will be technical innovations put in the pipeline, starting with an improved user interface. Also on the to-do list is a website that's an improvement over the present "alpha" Site and a more sophisticated block explorer. Since NFD is going to be community-centric, our first "real" improvement will most likely be to the browser client.
Of course there's more going into the pipeline, but our more sophisticated ideas are merely in the brainstorming stage right now. We'd much rather put first things first and take it a step at a time. But rest assured:
there will be "news you can use"! More tomorrow...
