Be a Leader

I have never seen a spirit of development and innovation like there is in the BlackCoin community. The amount of work going towards supporting this coin every day leaves me with no doubt in my mind that we will rise to the top. BlackCoin is far bigger than any one individual. BlackCoin is an entire community that will never stop until we are number one.

We are all members of the BlackCoin team. We are all BlackCoin developers. We are all BlackCoin promoters.

We are all BlackCoin leaders.

In just the last few days…

* I’m sure this list would be far bigger if I had more time to scour the web. If I missed you, rest assured, you are appreciated!

Do you really believe that with the strength of our dedicated community, value will not come?

BlackCoin has the chops to compete with the big boys in the crypto. That much is clear. It is up to us to keep pushing as hard as we can! Bitcoin and Litecoin holders made the biggest gains in crypto history not because they sat on their investments, but because they actively supported and promoted their coin!

How can you help?

If you have the skills to work on a project to support BlackCoin, the path is clear.

If not: You can join http://www.reddit.com/r/blackcoin and show your support for the many projects posted there with comments and ideas. You can tweet and retweet important and promotional messages about BlackCoin on Twitter. You can post all over the internet about the advantages of BlackCoin. You can try to convince merchants to accept BlackCoin. (Especially with CoinKite coming up!) You can support the BlackCoin community in tough times by helping to keep focus on what’s important. There are many, many other ways you can help.

Get creative, I believe in you.

Any small thing you can do helps add value to BlackCoin.

Germsite suggested ‘Be a Leader’ as a slogan for BlackCoin on BlackCoinTalk. I like it.
