[ANN] [MINT] Mintcoin (POS / 5%) [NO ICO] [Fair distro, community maintained]

[ssrcsolutions]

I have researched every coin that came out in the past 2 months and I chose MINT. Why? Because it has a solid dev team behind it that actually want to make a coin that isnt just a quick pump and dump profit. I fully believe that 2 years down the road my $1 per mint is easily possible and with the dedication these guys have shown so far it is very believable. quit hassling them and spreading fear to the n00bs who dont know any better. let them chill with the families. i got 2 kids myself and yes i spend 16 hours a day on cryptos usually but there are times you just gotta take a break for a day. Mint will do just fine hold your coins or sell your coins i dont care either way im buying em up cheap and hanging on tight. also makin a killing playing the 5 satoshi swings both up and down.

I usually try stay out of the forums, unless I need some help with something specific.  Lately I'm realizing that's a waste of time too. I try to focus on actual research and the forums are usually nothing more than a distraction.

However, I decided to be proactive and spend a little time here tonight in an effort to minimize future time loss.  Confused yet?  I'm also concerned because there is currently an effort to bring new users to Mint.  I was trying to think of ways to help educate new users and guide them through the process to get started using Mint.  Where could they turn if they have technical problems?  You know, things like that.  I realized that if I referred a new user to this forum, they would probably run like hell.  This goes for any coin.  If people want this to be more than a temporary fad, you have to get new users.  The crypto crowd can only feed on itself for so long.

I just would like to share some insight here.

First, I just want to say that NO ONE here can predict the future, regardless of whether you like this coin or that coin.  If you respond to a user who is trying to do that, what are you achieving?  You are simply countering an invalid argument with an invalid argument.  Not one single person in any of these forums can tell you the future of any crypto.  If they could, I wouldn't be here.  What fun would that be?

Second, I don't believe in suppressing anyone's ideas, so if you have something to say, by all means go ahead.  We can all learn new things.  But if others disagree, I don't think it's necessary to start an all out war just because we disagree.  Garbage is easy to spot here.  If you respond to garbage, you have no one but yourself to blame.

I'm guilty of unseemly behavior here too, so I'm not lecturing anyone.  I just unnecessarily blew up at someone yesterday on a forum, so I know how emotions can get in the way.  The thing is though, it was a waste of my time that I could have been using to earn money.

I've noticed a few "trolls" on this thread lately.  I define this as people with nothing to contribute who are just looking to start an argument or try and spread false information.  When you respond they achieve their goal.  I wonder what would happen if no one ever responded to them?  People using crypto aren't stupid.  If there is a post with ridiculous claims, and no responses, I think users can see through it.

Other forum users might have missed the trolls.  If you did, just pick any one of the 350 pages here and you can find one.  

However, I've also noticed people with legitimate questions and valid arguments being labelled trolls.  Some people have some concerns here.  If you can help, great.  If not, let the next person try.  There's no reason to get pissed off at someone simply because they're interested in the future of the coin.  That person may bring some clarity to the situation and help everyone.

For those of you who still feel the need to post negative things about coins without having any evidence to support your claims, go ahead.  Waste all the time you want here.  At least I have my eye on you and I know you are not accomplishing anything.  Forgive me for not responding.

I'm not trying to tell the future here.  I know for certain people are working hard on Mint.  I don't blame them for not posting very often in this forum, I wouldn't either.  We all know how markets are manipulated here.  If you could control the price of a coin, would you kill it?  How the hell can you make any money off a dead coin?  As long as development continues on Mint (or any other coin), the price will fluctuate.  This is my favorite aspect of cryptos.  It's better gambling than Vegas....

[Party Hard]

There was a premine, and perhaps the developer/founder pocketed the money or sold them at the recent peak, I don't really care. The dev worked hard to create the coin and is working hard to move the coin forward. The dev has to pay bills and has to eat and probably deserves a small reward for coming up with Mintcoin. I don't think it's so bad. At least it's not Mintcoin taken out of our wallets.

Let's say the dev pocketed the money, but sold off a large piece of it on the exchanges. This means more of it has been distributed and it has reached the hands of more people instead of being concentrated in the hands of the few. It also means slightly lowered prices at the exchanges. This is good for Mintcoin. I know you all want a totally selfless dev who doesn't get any reward, but things have to be interesting for the Dev if he is to continue working on it. I would probably not work as hard or as passionately on a project if I didn't get any reward for putting in all that time and energy, having sacrificed it from spending time on a day job or with family.

Wonderful logic! +1

Mintpal transfer?

I've been waiting about an hour for a transfer from Mintpal to my wallet. Never had a problem before. Anyone else?

Unless you used the wrong address it should be there soon.

Used the same address as the previous 2 transfers. Double checked everything. Record of transaction being done and sent. But no arrival to my account : (

I did another purchase about an hour ago and it hasn't showed up either. No response from my initial support ticket from 2 hours ago either. Not a great fan of poor service. Mintpal you can do better. 

[dspair]

Love a good drop. Nom nom.

You'll love drop to 20 in the end.

I'm sorry, I was wrong.

Last Price:

[22:19] <@MintPal-Jason_> The mintcoin wallet is currently lagging behind the network slightly so your deposits will be processed as soon as it's caught up

If you go to the withdrawals page on mintpal, what is the status of your transfer listed as? My transfer was taking longer than usual earlier today, and the status was listed as "confirmed" for some time before switching over to "successful" at which point the transfer went through to my wallet.

First thing I've ever won.  Thank you.  As much as I would like to be a modest, gracious winner....Screw it.  Parade for me tomorrow, HUGE party at my place after.  Free booze, drugs, lovely ladies who love tweakgeeks, unicorn rides, and a leprechaun at the end of the rainbow handing out fat stacks of Mint.

Hi, the latest purchase says Confirmed and the purchase over 3 hours ago says Successful. Neither has arrived.

Are you telling me that you are not a newbie? another account of a troll?

[DougB62]

Can anyone tell me what good it does to "ignore" a user, when people keep quoting them verbatim?   

[jtsnau]

Well the devs could stop dumping, but why would they?  The alt-coin development cycle (release it, hype it, watch it rise then dump it) has been very profitable for so many here.

[coolbeans94]

Everyone be careful not to get too emotional here about the current price. I think this coin has great fundamentals and the dev team is active and this coin is undervalued.  At the very least, buy more at the low and do cost averaging.
But let me explain:
Keep in mind there are still 250,000,000 million new coins created and being pumped into the money supply every day right now from the Proof-of-Work miners, but after 2 weeks this coin makes the switch to proof-of-stake and the amount of new coins created every-day will drop to less than 10,000,000 new coins per day. If you do the math, at these current prices, that means less than 2 BTC of buy orders would be able to buy the whole day's worth of money supply. IMHO, all of this recent emotion is so short-sighted. This coin is going to go through major changes in 2 weeks. The price is very low right now, but if I think about this coin rationally, with some vision, I see it surpassing Feathercoin market-cap at the very LEAST. MINT is liquid, energy efficient, fast, and has a great name, and it has a good community that is making progress, fair distribution. Give things time to sort out, it is too premature to call anything based off of one up and down wave. MINT is down from the all time highs, but is still over 100% higher than it was 2 weeks ago, which is saying something considering the hundreds of millions of coins being mined everyday still. Let the block reward half a few more times, make the switch to full PoS and give it some time to find it's feet.

[coinsmany]

Ladies and gentlemen…


Does everyone realize all the markets are serious down?   This is not the DEV who is dumping, it's a huge group of people of almost every alt coin.

3 days ago..

DGB was over 100, now its 50.

KARM was over 4, now its at 2.

DOGE was over 214, now its at 165.

OLY was over 82, now it's at 50.

I can keep going on.. but why.

Take a bit of a break,  relax til the markets come back.. and by all means, stop blaming the devs.  

[virtualdn]

it seems everyone is dropping their coins no matter the name and volume. all people want in the end is btc (or fiat) probably. i'm not really sure if long-term coin principle works anymore. maybe i'm wrong.
