I thought this url is acquired by someone else, or just the server is offline?

am I the only one that finds the light grey text on a white background a strain?

I love the format (white, minimalist, everything centered).  Very clean and easy on the eyes. However speaking of easy on the eyes, am I the only one that finds the light grey text on a white background a strain?

But it makes the intended point!

Looks great. Typo on page 2, near the bottom of last para: change "BTSC" to "BTSX".

 +5% I like the coinmarketcap graphic. It would be good to repost that in forums particularly with a polished paragraph about the feature release, the marketing initiative and the fact that it's probably your last chance to buy BTSX as cheap or cheaper than what people were paying before the snapshot.

I like the idea of posting the snapshot graphic in the newsletter.

What do people think about mentioning & name-dropping in the marketing paragraph,  'On the Western side, we've just recently returned from an incredible St. Martin mastermind trip, that involved in depth discussions and potential future partnerships with marketing heavyweights such as 'Kevin Harrington of Shark Tank fame.'

Perhaps even add a picture?




Edit: I don't know if it's really for the newsletter but I think a hook worth mentioning when marketing BTSX is the high level of Chinese support. As Xeroc pointed out the initial huge Bitcoin spurt was driven by the idea that the Chinese were getting behind Bitcoin and part of one of the first pop's was China related too. BTSX has huge Chinese support as indicated by the BTSX/CNY volume.
