Activism Item \#8 - FTC on MtGox (Not a Rumor - See Below)

[b]Activism Item #8 - FTC on MtGox (New Information Posted)[/b]
[i]Important[/i]
You are more than welcome to be critical of Mt.Gox. With that being said, this is not the thread for that specific discussion. This thread is centered around an immediate action item.
[i]Opening[/i]
Whenever I hear from a customer service agent on big decisions, I always take it with a grain of salt. Now that the Litecoin in July announcement has been made on the MT.Gox Facebook page:

I felt it was a good time to share this information. Again, treat it as a ‘possibility’, nothing more.

Our Forum Member: “Please add Feathercoin”
Mt.Gox: "Thank you for the email. We do have plans But there is no ETA, we will post in our website for update.
Thanks,
MtGox.com Team"

The email was forwarded to me and I went ahead and forwarded it to Bushstar.
[size=14pt][b]Action Item[/b][/size]
1. Please contact Mt.Gox through their support site in support of Feathercoin
https://support.mtgox.com/home
[size=18pt]2. If you plan on contacting them, please outline an intelligent argument concerning why it should be added. This email should be a few paragraphs, not a few lines.[/size]
3. I rather send 15 good arguments, than 100 1-4 liners.
4. Let them know we support their efforts to bring Litecoin and strongly recommend adding another alt coin that has a full time development team. They get a lot of abuse, we need to show our support. Their reach is mainstream, we need to hit that market. If you’re not a fan of MT.Gox, please see my Important statement above.
5. Reply that this was accomplished
I’ve been talking with other coins, building bridges and working on strategies for increased visibility. This is one more piece to the puzzle.
[i]Reminder[/i]
This is not a ‘We’re going on Gox’ rumor. We’re simply following up on a customer service statement. Let’s pick up a shovel and get to work.
[size=12pt][color=red]Don’t just read this post, take action. [/color][/size] This would add SIGNIFICANT VALUE to your Feathercoin investment.

Today is a glorious pump & dump day :) First BTC dump when people bought it on Gox and sold on BTC-e for fiat. Then LTC pump thanks to those rumours of getting it maybe listed on Gox somewhere in July. Followed by FTC dump to 0.0008 when those losers switched to buy LTC, then FTC pump to 0.00095, and back again. People are so predictable, me likes it very much :D

I have a feeling with LTC announcement FTC will go under the radar for a while with a lower consistent diff. Just mine and hoard your FTC for a few months ;)
Gox sees how this community has been growing due to an awesome team of people over here. LTC will be a trial run for them on Gox, the real big news is when they add FTC and we overtake LTC as the best scrypt currency. Soon (kinda) it will be time to trade ALL of my LTC for FTC and I am excited.

Will get on this, this evening before I head off.

Please take a moment to encourage those around you to do the same. :)

Sent a paragraph

Where are you guys sending the letter? I wrote over a page single spaced but can’t find anything other than request submissions lol.

I dont want to be negative, but I am very sure mtgox have a very effective business model and structure. Surly leaving that side of things may be a better solution. I would be willing to bet money on the inclusion of ftc will be based purely on how much $ they make from ltc trading (ok plus a little on the market value of ftc)
Im also pretty sure they have access to these forums - nothing personal but pumping and dumping comments may not help. -

[/quote]I appreciate the opinion, however, I would strongly disagree.
1. pumping and dumping comments
Please re-read my action item. I outlined specific quality criteria on the emails, not pump and dump comments.
2. activism
I’ve been in grassroots related campaigns since the 90s, sometimes it takes enough of nudge for the right person at the lower level to suggest it to their manager.
3. very effective business model and structure.
We’ve already seen that this isn’t the case. They’ve made a number of mistakes, we’re still here to support them.
4. activism thread
This is strictly an action item thread. There are other places to discuss opinions on viability.
I could be wrong. If there’s a .001% chance I’m right and the time on task was about 15 minutes, the ROI is still huge. The idea behind activism threads is focused strictly on the doing. If someone has a better ideas, they need to lead a separate charge. I love competing ideas, someone simply needs to pick up the shovel. I’m the ditch digger of the coin community. :)

“They replied indicating they are looking at adding other alternate cryptocurrencies and will post about the additions via their announcements. The request is being sent to management. So at least they will hear the request. I’d say it is worth the effort to contact them about this. And yes make your request at least a paragraph or two.” - Smoothie
Keep up the great work!

hi
with all respect,but I do not see anything related to Ftc on Mtgox latest statement.
Am I wrong? -
Maybe we’re interrupting this differently and that’s fine.

As I’ve said from the beginning, follow your own path. There’s no mastermind group of guys behind the scenes trying to fix the price of Feathercoin. I’m not saying this community, [b]but the crypto community in general[/b], too many black helicopter types for me. I’m a A to B kinda guy.
- Forum member asks about Feathercoin
- MTGox says in direct response ’ We have plans’
- I post
If someone else rather lead a charge, I would be more than happy to kick back and drink a nice glass of wine.

Mailed them pointing out the high volume at Btc-e (as bait). Lets see if there is any response.

Is that legit???

[/quote]Got a reply; English doesn’t seem to be their strong point - ‘Now at July LTC is going to implement. If there is any plans related to implementation of FTC, an official announcement will be made.’
Atleast we are keeping ourselves in their view.

That doesn’t seem to optimistic about getting FTC on their exchange…
