...don't think there is an outstanding design in the submissions.
+1. I don't think it's a good idea to design a logo without first creating a brand identity and narrative. its 2014 only way to make a logo is make a bounty and whack it up at http://99designs.com/get the professionals to compete... i think solid and cryptodruti are at 99designs level, they just haven't put it in 3d or iron or something. but the arrangement is great |

I think the best thing to do right now is to work on project which would take XC further. I've started working on my physical coins and will be releasing mocks soon. Remember if you need help with projects or want some feedback, pm me.
Hi Teka any News on the Logo Voting for the Contest? Yes, 7vpo hasn't replied so I will have to choose his submissions. I sent. |

Getting a logo hastily and without a cohesive brand strategy will just come across as patchy and unprofessional. |

I'd say suspend the competition, approach the brand/marketing/PR properly, and then get some designs done (by the community if we like) according to a brief. |

Totally. What I mean though is that the role of branding, PR etc. is to clearly communicate the fundamentals. I'm sure you'd agree that they've been mostly obscured by FUD lately. We need good communication, and it's not hard to do properly. (In fact I've suggested to the Dev that I take it on.) |

I agree, There’s a lot of talk about how to get XC noticed by more people and a lot of suggestions have come by on the forum. But we should have a more strategic approach to this. Suggestion 1: Coordinate all external communication Everybody telling the same story helps the rule of repetition (communication is most effective when it is repeatedly brought to the attention of our target market) Suggestion 2 Anticipate on possible reations Before dev. makes a new announcement, lets think over the possible reactions from our target market and write possible responses to those reactions. Suggestion 3: Make a (short)list of possible comm. channels. Formulate what we want to tell about XC on each channel. Write pressreleases /flashmessages |

I usually avoid talking about price but thought I would share this with you. If price closes below 0.0008 then panic, else, we're just starting the recovery and get ready to buy cheap XC.  |

BETA TestingHow to run a xnode with the last wallet : http://xc-official.com/release/wallets/XCv0.9.1.35x11-coin-1.0.zipYou must run the xnode wallet on another computer in this way you are safe to test it.I know there is other way to do it but i have tested it in this way. Launch your wallet without the X11Coin.conf in appdata/Roaming/X11Coin/ and run "run-xc-xnode-mainnet.bat" You will get a message with your password in it dont close it for now, create a new file in appdata/Roaming/X11Coin/ and rename it "X11Coin.conf",now put the password in it and that : reservebalance=100 rpcuser=bitcoinrpc rpcpassword=(Password of the first start) addnode=east01.xcnode.xc-official.com addnode=west01.xcnode.xc-official.com addnode=west02.xcnode.xc-official.com Now you can save your X11Coin.conf and make it Read-Only ! Close your wallet and restart it with again "run-xc-xnode-mainnet.bat" ! You're now syncing your wallet with the network , wait for it ! After syncing is completed transfert 15xc from your main wallet to your fresh xnode wallet ,encrypted it, then restarted it and unlocked it. You have now a xnode wallet running !!!Correct me if i am wrong !

I'm far from beeing a marketing expert. i just think best way now is end contest pic winner(solid please  ) work logo into website (color change etc), start communicating the fundamentals. go to moon. retire  |
