Now 2015 is approaching, what do we feel us as a community need to do to help Goldcoin grow and take its next step. Please post some ideas and share your thoughts.

Support SAGoldCoin and getting GoldCoin more noticed. Such as more media outlets drawing more attention to GLD. GoldCoin is a fine developed coin that more people need to know about and know it is a wise choice. And as we get more media, share it as many places as we can. We need to be visible. Someone in the marketing business would be a great asset.

I agree, marketing and media is crucial now. Goldcoin has solid principles, great community, a great coin. We now need to take it to the next level. With regards to the conferences Kreno777 is doing this is when we should be pushing for articles and promotion leading up to each event. We will then find that we need to push for more events in different countries. I also think 2015 is the year when Goldcoin needs to be adopted as a method of payment in either a coffee shop or small computer hardware shop, so finding an investor who owns a shop and is attracted to goldcoin is really the only way for this to happen and i think this is when we have to get out and start approaching people face to face.

Honestly, GoldCoin is not going to grow until the new client is released.  It has been almost 2 months since the client was promised and the entire community hasn't seen anything other than teaser videos.

The credibility of GoldCoin lies in this client release.  If it doesn't happen, GoldCoin isn't going anywhere. 

Hate to be such a Debbie Downer but this is just the harsh reality.

In the future it would probably be better not to announce anything large like that until well after it's done.

Thanks for your input, I think the principles in which Goldcoin have now are great, nothing needs to be done or altered, but with the hardwork the Dev has put in to the new client then yes this is a massive plus and I would call it a 'big bonus' to what goldcoin has already. The new client is not stopping the progression of Goldcoin now, we could wait another year for the new client to be released and when it is we will still be asking what to do now. I don't believe the new client is the be all, end all for Goldcoin yes it it will give us more attention for a while and will bring a much deserved boost for goldcoin but this is not stopping us with approaching merchants for adoption. We need investors who want to buy and own goldcoins and feel the same way about it as much as we do, we need all kinds of investors to actually try and use the coin as a payment. For example a Goldcoin shop to kick things off, you can only buy things from Goldcoin shop using goldcoin, the goldcoin shop could sell things like goldcoin t-shirts, hooded tops, cups, goldcoin phone cases, iPad case, with most products containing the goldcoin logo. Goldcoin is already at great standard in terms of actually sending and receiving coins safely and quickly, I am going to start looking for small businesses locally who I think would have an interest in goldcoin and most importantly would like to accept it as a method of payment.

The credibility of Goldcoin lies in the hands of the community, not a single 22-year-old individual. Anyone in the community is welcome to contribute to the development of Goldcoin, make a client, contribute to the code, create a store, conduct an event, etc., etc. Satoshi disappeared nearly 5 years ago and Bitcoin was unfazed.

This currency is guaranteed to be around 100 years from now - unless the world ends. And there's going to be many changes as the currency evolves over time. Developers will come and developers will go. But unlike its mortal caretakers, miners, and adopters - like Physical gold - Goldcoin will remain undisturbed by time.

How is the client development going Microguy?  Did Akumaburn simply underestimate the time frame (quite understandable if he did)?

This is his last post on the subject made November 28th in the Facebook Group.



In addition, I received a PM in early December stating I would hear back from him when the client was finished.
