It might go lower or maybe it has found the floor. Regardless, it was trading @ 1600 just last month. That's incredible growth for all you noob haters out there.

Max continues to promote startcoin/startcoin daily. So yea, you were saying?

Looks like the end is near for scam coins.  Best dump and move into something safe like Dogecoin or Pandacoin, etc.  The Feds are coming ...

And Start is designed specifically to be a crowdsourcing coin, exactly what they're targeting ... big target on your arses here.  Do what you will but the writing is on the wall.

Don't want to hear how "this is crypto, anon, the government can't touch it". Right, but they can touch Bittrex, Cryptsy, etc. and "encourage" them to delist anything on their scam list ... And if the exchanges want to stand firm (like that will happen ...) good luck getting any real merchants to use a coin once they get a friendly call from a nice fellow in Washington.

StartJOIN is a UK based crowd funding platform - so in the main part this does not apply.

StartCOIN is listed and traded on Bittrex Exchange currently - which is ofc US based. Its very unlikely though that a coin used on a genuine crowd funding platform would be removed over other 'junk' crypto coins.

It would be best to get StartCOIN listed on another EU based FIAT exchange such as LiteBit.eu - http://www.litebit.eu - ASAP.

StartCOIN can already be traded for FIAT via UK based Bittylicious https://bittylicious.com/coin/START

StartCoin/Join is doing more to help crypto-currencies than 99.9% coins out there. Not to mention all others projects in other categories too. A single project has almost 600 backers that's an achievement my brother.

Nothing is going to change because all of the community here are people that either; bought, mine, sold, thinking of buying startcoin, or thinking that they have been late with selling and were late with buying (bag holders). This startjoin project seems to me as a fail (at this moment), as  ONE - all of the startcoins that go into the projects end up beeing exchanged into fiat, and TWO - with the fridays rewards more and more startcoins are pushed in-to the circulation, and those money are to be dumped, to prove this check out the volumes of the coin on fridays!

There MUST be some kind of a game-changer - in my opinion, something that will cause startcoin to be bought and than saved or spent on good/services passing the fiats, for instance buying startcoins with fiat to than use them to purchase games online or in-app purchases. I am constantly reading Max's twitter, and I have some twits of his saved (which he has deleted) regarding the gocoin deal, it looks like Max does indeed have something up his sleeve, and he is going to introduce it soon.

I am too visiting this page every day checking weather there is any community behind startjoin/startcoin - but right now it really seems that Max has had 10-15 'friends' of his putting up their 'projects' on startjoin, creating at least some kind of vision of 'community' behind startjoin/startcoin. I think that to see (and this has to do with every coin/project in crypto) weather something has attention - check out the amount of pages in the tread of the bitcointalk and this number will demonstrate the reality.

I have personally posted three, may be four times on the startjoin wall asking the dev and Max to make the information regarding the pre-mined coins and the coins that have been given out on fridays. But all they do is they post twitter updates with people who got the top rewards, but in my opinion there are not all of the people for sure but only some! And this is why:
- I have seen two-three weeks ago that Stacy was on the top of the list of receiving the largest dividends (around 2500 start) (bear in mind - 0.666% of full sum, this is not official info). And now she has disappeared from the lists, though there are new people on that list, the ones who have 12 and more % of the total supply of the startcoin. The largest sum this week was around 6000 start coins.

Taking all of this in to the account, I reckon that there are around 30 to 40 thousand startcoins which are been let out every friday in to the free market and then been dumped.

It is my understanding that 'Free' coin can only be used as pledges and cannot be withdrawn, maybe i am wrong

nice you've been reading some of my comments hehe very well informed   guess my twitter account and I send you some free coins! OK this is how things are over StartCoin. Richard Branson backs StartCoin he has invested money huge money along with some other people less "famous" but as rich or even richer (Max btw is the real deal along with Jed!). StartCoin will be out of circulation when it reaches 84 million coins so you have less than 40 million still up for grabs this coin will be the retired fund for many rich people BUT Max is popular. Some of his zombie followers screwed things buying way too many coins at a huge discount so prices had to go back down (market demand) and I mean down by some 1000%. StartJoin will run out of StartCoins sooner than later so by then you will see some major changes in price expect it to go around USD 0.25. The GoCoin had to be delayed (market expection) thanks to those fanatics who took all their saving account FIAT $hit and bought StartCoin at a volume much higher than they should had (we won't need trillionaires). GoCoin will go live once more intelligent people make the intelligent decision of buying StartCoin and saving it i.e. more spread on ownership. Just as Richard Branson and his folks are waiting to retire on this coin so am I
