Title: Paycoin - Joining GoCoin
Post by: hpenvy on December 23, 2014, 06:04:01 am
Hey all, popped into my home network for a few and wanted to comment on PayCoin.  Aside from all the debate about it's real value and how it's being reported on Coinmarketcap, here's the real concern.

http://www.coindesk.com/gocoin-gains-strategic-investment-software-development-push/

"Digital currency payments processor GoCoin has received a new strategic investment from US-based mining company GAW Miners."

"No date has been set for GoCoin's expected integration of paycoin. According to Beauregard, there is a need to look into new coins as the market evolves and the needs of merchants change."

Since GoCoin is targeting iGaming and high risk merchants as part of their plan, it's an issue for us.  I would recommend we look at a similar arrangement.  We can't expect Gocoin to do the work for us, it make take some funds and development resources to assist.

Alright, have a good one everyone!

Ok now I am confident for the failure of paycoin...Same thing happened to NXT when they announced that Gocoin will use NXT and that never happened driving the price of NXT within days to plunge after a huge pump...

Give it a couple of days- weeks for paycoin to simply die. lol..

its a bit different when GAW has invested directly in gocoin.

Marijuana dealers in Colorado, adult industry, some subscription services, and merchants who are at a "high risk" for charge backs.
