Peter needs to contact an economist with a Youtube channel

I agree with Chris, we must sell trust and security to succeed.
Please help in support if you think we should get more members! The current exponential forum member increase is mind bogglingly scary. We need to be discussing how we handle the “new” situation.

[/quote]I am treating Feathercoin like a marathon not a sprint. We had a lot of supporters at the Expo who would say things like “Good job, well done, I have been lurking on the forum for months and really like what you guys are doing”
That’s exactly what I am going for. Let them treat the other coins like slot machines while we quietly creep up and build something with strong foundations that is designed to last.

or not, lulz.
[glow=red,2,300][WARNING : DIFFERING OPINION AHEAD][/glow]
Keep in mind that all of these coins that have been getting this free advertising (they are BEGGING! for coins to talk about) are staying well above the price they were sitting at prior to their publicity and their user bases grew exponentially (which grows the coins usage and contributors).
I completely understand what you’re saying (see my blog rant from last week on Keiser’s P&D’s) but I cannot deny the positive outcome all of these other coins have experienced from this media blitz.
[glow=red,2,300]FTC is missing out on a golden opportunity for growth and name recognition … [/glow] [b]by choice[/b].
I am disappoint. :-\
I see no harm in doing an interview with an economist and spreading the message FTC want’s to give. If someone P&D’s because of the publicity, so be it.
Perhaps I’m spending too much time promoting FTC myself. I wouldn’t want to P&D FTC to up .002 (by talking about it on air) and watch it sit there for a month before dropping to .0015. That would really suck, especially considering how we all [i]loved[/i] sitting under .0005 for so long. ::)
So be it. Just trying to help … and I disagree [b]1000%[/b] if that was not made clear. lulz
Perhaps another opportunity will roll around in a few years and FTC can pull itself from the dark web and get some recognition it deserves. Meanwhile Quark Coin and the like will continue to steal market cap that was FTC’s. Good times! ::)

I’m still a FTC fanboy (hence why I care too much above), but FTC is really making a huge mistake here IMHO.

We spoke to Keiser’s people and tbh I don’t like it. It is basically just a pump and dump.
[/quote]Can I ask what you spoke to him/them about and what the response was? I’ve wondered how Keiser selects what coins to promote. Is he just getting paid to pimp them out or something?

Maybe try strike a deal with madbitcoins on youtube. He doesn’t have many views yet, but I’m sure this will change soon. I really like his short, informative shows:
[/quote]He mentions FTC quite a bit. He accepts BTC for advertising and a good (free) way to get him to talk about Feathercoin is to view his live youtube shows and add comments asking questions or pointing out Feathercoin points related to the topic at hand.

Tuck, you need to volunteer somehow. I’m really hoping for it.

[/quote]Put it this way, he has the coins before he promotes them. Stacy Herbert actually said to the audience at the Expo that she had money on the Litecoin volatility over the last few days. Make of that what you will.

[/quote]Doesn’t everyone?[/sarcasm] It’s like payment for being right about a coin. You find a coin you like, you research it, you poke it with sticks to irritate it to see how it responds … then you invest if all goes well. Months later someone with a bunch of sheep followers goes on Twitter and types “Pump!” and then you reap your due rewards for the work well done. When everyone dumps you wait for the runoff to erode the spirit of weak hands until they dump even more. A week later, you buy your coins back at 1/2 price and wait for the next one.
