Unlock your wallet for staking at least once every 90 days for 24 hours to achieve max stake.

Congrats on hitting the 'Top 100 Investors'.

Wow, thanks for the quick response! I would be higher but getting buy orders filled is painfully slow. Maybe renting hashes is the best way?

Thanks again!

I was thinking today that it is currently better to just purchase SLG directly than to mine, but I may be wrong and hiring mining power may be the way. I am just comparing my electricity costs for my 2 x GTX970's at 9MH producing around 100-150SLG per day to just purchasing SLG with the same amount of money I spend on the electric.

Hello Sterlingcoin,

I am a contributor to the Sterlingcoin video funding to raise 3BTC by the end of the year.

I am hopeful that we will reach our goal in about 2 weeks, if not, I think that it would be a good idea to continue this fund with an eye towards producing this video as soon as possible. We all know the importance of a promotional video to communicate the message about the benefits of Sterlingcoin.

I would rather keep my contribution in an ongoing video fund if necessary and encourage other community members to contribute to facilitate this video.  Even small contributions add up over a period of time and as we get closer to our goal more of the community will contribute funding and ideas for this video.

I am willing to contribute additional funds in the future.

We would be happy to continue the funding indefinitely until it completes. Mr Bee, Ben.D and Andres.M would also have to let us know their thoughts on this.

The video is a really good way for people to share and spread the knowledge of Sterlingcoin across the internet.

My funds are available until the funding is complete no matter how long it takes.
Anyone else here in the community who wants to help with a donation? This video is important for SLG to move forward.

[Mrbee]

In approximately 2 weeks the POW stage will be done.
To everybody how is not in SLG, it's time to get in! Get in now before the POW ends. The price of SLG will recover after the POW.

[Sterlingcoin]

The Sterlingcoin official forum is near completion and we are aiming to have it live and open to the public within the next couple of days.

At this point the discussion of Sterlingcoin will move away from Bitcointalk with only major announcements being made on this thread.

Let us know your thoughts

A section on the dev-teams long-term route map for SLG would be good.

On the technical development side, that is (code-changes, new wallets, tipbots, etc)

SLG also needs a plan for marketing, but that should be treated separately.

Yes we would like to instigate a timeline that shows past achievements and upcoming milestones.

Marketing/Promotion is not something the team excels in (as you may of noticed) although we try our hardest and because of this we are looking for keen, passionate folk to take up these roles within the team.

EDIT: timeline.sterlingcoin.org.uk will begin once the forum has launched.

There are issues mainly with the menu system of the forum but rest assured Steven Saxton is working away on this and these issues will be resolved very soon.

[Rols]

It looks like we just have a maximum of 18 more days untill PoW ends.

So London time between midnight 3 january to 02:00 4 january It will end. There will be 3 850 000 SLG in circulation.

Because of PoS it can change a bit.

..just registered to the forum, it looks cool..

[Mrbee]

also registered and the site looks awesome!

Postman just delivered my card (no. 6 of 100, like a limited edition work of art!). Nicely packaged, excellent work, many thanks.

CJ

Just received my card.
What an art!

Thanks all. Good to know that the cards have been received well.

Very much looking forward to commencing with production of the Sterlingcoin Standard Edition Crypto Cards in the new year.

I will probably sell most of the remaining 25 Premier Edition cards via sites like ebay over the coming year - providing some additional promotion for Sterlingcoin. I'll keep a few back for a giveaway thread or two on the new Sterlingcoin forum though.

Crazy to think that with as many people backing the Sterlingcoin project on StartJOIN they didn't claim the card for their funding and 25 were left over.

Have not been very active here recently - seem to of spent most of the last few weeks feeding plastic cards through a printer !

Anyway, I'd be keen to help with marketing and/or promotion in some capacity.

I think a lot of progress could be made by linking everything together. I'd be happy to get a starter point-of-sales pack of Sterlingcoin Standard Edition crypto cards out to all existing merchants, when we start production. Being able to pick-up the equivalent of a Sterlingcoin 'Top-up' voucher from an existing Sterlingcoin accepting merchant could be a good start. The intangible nature of crypto currency is perhaps its biggest flaw for easy mass adoption.

The cryptocards.link website (when I get around to creating the site) will provide a way to easily buy these Sterlingcoin Standard Edition - gift cards / cold storage cards.

Furthermore, the crowd funding project has highlighted that a service to produce cards for customers existing wallet addresses (without the private key) would be useful, both for personal use and also from a small retailers perspective. I'm therefore looking to offer this as a website service and also a 2-card pack i.e. one card with the private key and the other one with just the wallet address and QR code, thus allowing for easily receiving payments via another user with a smart phone / app. etc. A retailer can easily keep this type of card in the till for the occasional customer looking to pay with Sterlingcoin, its also convenient to hold one in your wallet to accept payments with perhaps.

Sterlingcoin can easily build up a strong brand identity, even more so than lots of other crypto currencies, their is a lot of potential for growth here.

A written letter containing a sample Sterlingcoin crypto currency card, being sent to potential point-of-sale retailers could also be an excellent way forward. I'm thinking niche market gift shops, small independent jewellery and silver shops would be good for starters. I'll probably try a sample mail out in the new year - including some retailers in British Territories such as Gibraltar, Guernsey, Jersey and the Isle of Man which could make for an interesting test sample to gauge response as they are very familiar with Pound 'Sterling'. I also have a mailing list of international silver / coin collectors which would probably be worth sending a card to with an introductory letter.

Any feed back or thoughts on this ?

Indeed. It's closer to 30+ Premier Edition cards remaining actually. Some contributors (i.e. donations without pledging for a card) on the StartJOIN project did not provide any contact address information, so whilst I've messaged those few to check if they would like a card for donating to the project, still mostly no response as of yet. So, just over 25 cards left to be sold or auctioned anyway.

The developers would love some custom Sterlingcoin cards for personal use, could you please pass the dimensions and/or template if possible and we will come up with a design.
