Someday there will be a NewYorkCoin. We have the chance now to be that coin. We need more from the devs and more from the community. When I say we, I am speaking as an early investor and not as a dev.
We finished near the top of the voting on coinpayments during their last competition, in the company of some other very successful coins, and there is still voting going on at Swisscex where NYC is almost at the top. We are very close to breathing life into the coin.
The network / blockchain is still operational and Im getting 11 node connections which is more than most altcoins have. The coin is not dead, it just has no real world utility yet. It has a meme that must eventually bear fruit. The only question is whether it can gain acceptance in the marketplace and whether its users are mere speculators or actual productive supporters.
If you were looking for a free ride or a quick buck, NYC isnt that. If you believe that New York is a major hub for cryptocurrencies and that an established NYC coin has a manifest destiny to succeed there eventually, then roll your sleeves up and contribute focused effort to the cause. It doesnt matter so much how many exchanges carry the coin now, look at Karma, they have a massive market cap and almost no footprint on the exchanges.
Im voting on Swisscex and I have btc loaded into coinpayments in case they open another round of voting. The devs could at least release a wallet upgrade or give the network a revamp to show that they are committed and professional. If the NYC twitter account had anything big to say, I would be retweeting, but we're still talking about this airdrop. Thats not news anymore.
Just my 2 NYC's...
I agree with you, we need Dev for answer all questions in this thread and comunity for doing something.
I will try contact some marketplaces and websites, which accept altcoints end of this month, but my english isn't so good. I am still voting, mining and ready for donate coinpayments. But we need more people to support NYC!
It is more difficult support coin, which has low volume, but if more people will support NYC and try write some articles, contact people from New York, we will increase volume, price and finally we own lot of NYC with low price :-)
