Austin here, and I am absolutely thrilled to chat with you about NewYorkCoin today, there are many great developments in the world of NYC!
First, the NewYorkCoin successfully forked at block 4,800,000 enabling a plethora of great features including merged mining, new and improved security features, and the inflation reduction plan has successfully been implemented. Every 500,000 blocks moving forward from 4,800,000 the block reward is coded to cut in half. This will slow down the amount of NewYorkCoin being mined into circulation as the chain grows in age. Check out the road-map for more info on the other great plans for this coin moving forward into the new year and beyond. https://nycoin.community/roadmap.html
The second piece of info that I am happy to announce is that the community has successfully come together to secure support from Coinomi, they have officially been paid the fee that they requested and are currently on the forked chain, operating just as smooth as before! I want to thank everyone involved within the community, as well as outside, who helped us reach this goal, we couldn't have done it without you! For a list of NewYorkCoin compatible wallets, including links to Coinomi, check out the community website and click "WALLETS." https://nycoin.community/
Third, as a reminder, we are holding the drawing for the Raspberry Pi NYC Node on November 15th at 2PM EST. At that time, an entrant will be chosen and the winner will be announced on the NYC Discord and Telegram channels, respectively. More info on the raffle can be found on the official blog post. https://blog.nycoin.community/raspberry-pi-nyc-node-raffle/
Fourth, the Exchange Team is working day and night to get NewYorkCoin onto new exchanges now that the coin has forked and is much more secure. Keep an eye on the NewYorkCoin CMC page and be on the lookout for new exchanges. New market pairings will be announced on the NewYorkCoin Discord and Telegram channels once they are secured and open for trading. https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/newyorkcoin/#markets
Fifth, the Merchants Team is working their butts off to on-board new merchants, bringing new businesses into the NYC ecosystem on a constant basis! More and more businesses worldwide are embracing cryptocurrency, and more importantly, embracing NewYorkCoin, by accepting NewYorkCoin, they are showing a gesture of faith in the core fundamentals of what this project is all about, and there is no better way for a business to get into cryptocurrency than the blazing fast payment solution that is NewYorkCoin. I encourage any merchants out there to check out our simple on-boarding process, so you you too may take part in this revolutionary payment system! https://www.nycoinstores.com/new-merchant/
Sixth, the new Discord server is thriving more than ever! The community Rainstorm Team hosted a rainstorm this past weekend, raining out NYC for free onto active members in the Discord server, massive amounts of NYC were given away. The rainstorm eventually got so heavy, and so much NYC was being rained out, that towards the end the storm, the bot actually stopped functioning, talk about a heavy storm! Everyone had a great time as always, and I encourage you to join the Discord server so that you too can receive the generous rains from the various members of the server! You can use the following invite link to join the conversation over there! https://discord.gg/rgJJTYZ
Last, there have been many attempts by individuals to spread FUD regarding NewYorkCoin, the recent 51% attack, and the Dev Team. Only someone without an understanding of the attack and the wide scope of people who were affected would make such preposterous claims, such as the admins, or the Dev Team being involved, it's complete and utter nonsense. I know many individuals who were victims of the recent 51% attack, and saying that they would succumb to being victims of their own attack is ignorance at it's very core. The admins and Dev Team have proven time and time again to be nothing but transparent with the community regarding the development choices that are made, this is why they bring ideas to the community first, so that nothing comes as a surprise, and so that everyone has a say on said choices. Volunteers of their stature should be trusted and treated with nothing less than the utmost respect, especially given the amount of effort they've put into preventing the very attacks that recently happened.
In closing, I want thank each of you for standing by NewYorkCoin, on behalf of the community, the strength shown within this community is unmatched. Moving forward into 2019, only great things can happen with NewYorkCoin and cryptocurrency adoption, day in and day out I am always thrilled to be involved with this technology, always for the same reasons, I ask you to remind yourself of the reason you got into cryptocurrency, and stir that excitement for the revolutionary technology that is in front of each and every one of us! As always, happy holding!
This is awesome! Now I am certain that NYC has a bright future. Keep good work...
Awesome! Lots of good things happening!
That is great news about Coinomi! I thought we were still quite a bit short and I had just written off those coins as lost to me... or at least recoverable only with some effort. So, is it safe to transact out of Coinomi?
Yup Coinomi is safe, and you can use it just like before
This is awesome. :)
Oh my gosh hooray!!!
