Hi
I have now been analyzing the crypto coins for a while.
To coino to survive you need:
A strong dev team.
Issues are fixed really quickly!
Bring positive news in to the community every day!
Dev team to ask questions to the community, to boost the activity.
Be on the top lists like :
http://www.coinssource.com/top-coins/, and climbing UP UP UP!!!
Strong exchange like Cryptsy.com with lot of buyers on it.
Working wallets for both MAC, PC, Online etc...
Working pools.
Free addons to help miners, like an cgminer monitor, lock at
http://cgminermonitor.com Help miners to configure stable riggs, the most important settings you do is to extend the PCIbus clock delay in BIOS and to have airflow.
Somewhere to spend coins.
ATTENTION - Check this out
https://xapo.com - ATTENTION
To have a coino debit card that works where Mastercard are working would BOOST Coino!
I would start spend coino today! - Buy an hotdog and save my local currency!
It's all about perceptions!
This is a short input to grow our business.
This is my view, I guess you already are working on this but now I have contributed to the growth of coino, small steps....
Thanks.

exactly !!!!!! i agree with you guy
ATTENTION - ATTENTION
There will be NO Coin(O) Debit Card any time soon. This is unlikely to happen with ANY crypto currency that has less of a market cap than Litecoin. It is not viable and never was.
Banks do not like crypto and actually shut down and seize accounts dealing in crypto in some countries.
Being on a big exchange right now would hurt us more than help us as it would draw too much attention from the big hashers who would dump and drive the price down very quickly.
We already have enough issues with miners on exchanges such Poloniex who consistently insist on driving the price down to around 180 sats with small sells i.e. 70 Coin(O) at 100 sat less than anybody else. These miners don't give a crap about this coin or any other. Their only interest is 10 bucks a day.
These people are DELIBERATELY trying to get you to sell cheap so that they can buy cheap. If we were on a big exchange at this moment it would be 10 times worse.
We are comfortable with where we are now and are slowly, but surely, increasing the interest in Coin(O) again and doing our best to innovate make Coin(O) stand out from the rest.
However it's going to be slow and an up hill struggle as we are still a SCrypt coin, and as such, we will at some point be the target of ASIC miners out there who are quickly running out of SCrypt coins to rape as most coins are now going X11.
As a community we feel we are bringing positive news on a regular basis. We are addressing issues quickly and have working wallets and good pools for you to mine at.
Miners should however be responsible for their own rigs and setups and there are more than enough sites on the web to help you out here. However, saying that, we do have a community member whom is currently rewriting some "how to" guides for our Coin(O) community members and we are also working on "places to spend your Coin(O)". There will be more news about this in time.
As a Community team we 100% believe Coin(O) has a great future, or we wouldn't be here either. It's NOT a coin you will make a "quick buck off" at this moment and if you want to mine Coin(O) then great. But if you want to mine and dump it we have no interest in you being here.
Coin(O) is what it is, it may have started with a big unrealistic marketing drive but it's now in the hands of people that actually care. We do NOT get paid for our time or effort, we do NOT get paid bounties for developing Web Wallets and games, we do NOT get paid or rewarded for maintaining this coin for the community interest. What we do get is good feedback from you, the Coin(O) community and that is good enough.
We would like to spend 100% of our time here but we can't, we also have families and jobs that pay our bills, just like 99.9% of you.
There are a 1000+ shit coins out there to mine with no purpose other than to trade for BTC and we are doing our absolute best to ensure Coin(O) is not one of them.
Whatever the original dev's had planned for Coin(O) is no longer relevant. Coin(O) will now take a direction decided by the majority of the community, for the community. We know that not everybody is happy with that, but tough, that's the way it is.
The people now behind the scenes of Coin(O) now are not rich, do not hold or control millions of coins, and are not anonymous. I myself have "put out" my profile on more than one occasion as has bgade.
We did not "chose" or "plan" to hijack or takeover Coin(O), infact it was rather the opposite. We were nominated by a significant number of Coin(O) users, over a period of many weeks in IRC, to become the representatives of Coin(O) and we were honoured to do so.
All that we ask of you, the community, is patients. We will get there in the end. It's a long steady race, not a sprint, and we intend to be on the winners podium at the finish with your help.
If you really want to help and get involved, then either join us in the IRC channel and put forward your ideas or donate what you can to the Coin(O) community wallet for future benefits.
All of the information you need to get involved can be found in the first post of this thread.
In the mean time, we wish you all happy mining and hope you have as much belief in Coin(O)'s future as we do.
Your Coin(O) Community Team
