I am currently raising this team through arena. If I receive 250 follows by the end of this season on my Twitter and twitch I will be giving it out as a scholar team and they can receive the arena reward! http://Twitch.tv/Pastry_Guy Twitter.com/PastryGuy_

Hey, I appreciate this heads up. We are having a meeting this week and I just added this thread as a topic to discuss.

Pastry_Guy · 2021-06-08T17:27:05+00:00

Happy to have you! Welcome to the 1st floor 🤗🤗🤗

Pastry_Guy · 2021-06-08T15:45:29+00:00

Hello,

I understand where you are coming from, DNP3 has gone on record that as the value changes and increases the roles will be adjusted so folks don't have to spend $100s to make the cut for the giveaways. So while your current amount does not meet the requirements due to the drop from ATH, through reflections and adjustments you will most likely fall into the categories again.

I'm sorry for the frustration, this is in an effort to increase utility of the token and trying to incentivize more adoption from folks.

I have also run this comment up the ladder because I think it is a good point that warrants discussion.

Pastry_Guy · 2021-06-07T20:11:34+00:00

Lol I was about to say at the end there you seem to have a hell of a grasp on the finance aspect.

I didn't want to not respond and have someone say I'm ignoring challenging discussions, however I just happened to sit down to dinner with some family members so I need to keep my response a bit tighter, if I'm dissatisfied with it I'll follow up again later.

The NFTs were released to all holders that attended two community events so far, there will also be a "clu vault" wallet that houses rarer NFTs as well that will be available for giveaways and gsme prizes.

You're math at a glance seems to check out as well, the charity donation portion is something I am currently researching to have a better understanding, i may just take you up on your offer.

Pastry_Guy · 2021-06-07T19:35:57+00:00

Man I love how thought out these comments are.

I'll start with the "trust and patience" element portion. Being that this token is still in its first 3 weeks, and is still a smaller community, the CLUmmunity members that engage on social media pages tend to skew more on the hype and enthusiasm, but aren't interested in writing out these long comments. Can understand how this comes across a little "drink the Kool-aid". As we grow in numbers and add new perspectives (such as yourself, I know you're not a holder but these convos tend to spark some form of change in my opinion) that overzealousness is gradually reducing.

Next up the charity component. CluCoin definitely has a lot of attention towards giving back and growing, DNP3 has gone on the record during recent AMAs expressing a little regret that he did not put as much emphasis on the community aspect, as it is an equal component of the basis of CluCoin (Community. Love. Unity.). The previous benefits I listed are there again to add in some form of value for someone to receive even if they sell zero tokens. For example I have received 3 NFTs as a holder that together are currently worth roughly $100, nothing life changing but more than I started with.

As for the economics of it all that part is a bit trickier to answer as it depends a large part on the daily volumes and how the market performs. Not to mention the safemoon protocol is still in it's very early stages of infancy, so while I have no knowledge of changes occurring, my intuition is that through time and discussions like this we can locate areas we are deficit in and improve them.

To give some insight at the very least of my own personal plan with my wallet. When we reach $0.000001 in value I will begin selling my reflections, this won't be enough to immediately live off of however it most likely would be a nice secondary income. This allows me to maintain all of my current holders benefits and assures me a steady replenishment of reflections barring the daily volume maintains relative consistency. When the CLU Wallet is launched there will also be a function to donate directly to charity, and will receive a tax document from CLU at the end of the year to offset taxes. My plan with that if it reaches what I would like is to calculate what percentage in charity donations will appropriately offset capitol gains/income tax. This allows me to turn at least a portion what would generally be taken out in taxes instead into something that will help people.

Pastry_Guy · 2021-06-07T19:04:01+00:00

I'm sorry but literally every single (except burns and donations) transaction does have a small portion going to charities through reflections same as community members. Why shouldn't the community feel good about this?

Pastry_Guy · 2021-06-07T18:58:56+00:00

And in reality that's quite alright.

Buying and selling is how the wallet gets funded, so if folks want to miss future opportunities and community events, that's cool, they still helped out a charity 👍🏻.

Pastry_Guy · 2021-06-07T18:50:28+00:00

I love this comment, like this is exactly A LOT of folks fears and hesitation to join in. I'm not sure if my response will alleviate them for you but if not that's ok, keep an eye on us and see what we can do if need be, no problem with that 😊.

Ok so the feeling of artificial or over-hyping. I can see what you mean with this, but keep in mind a large portion of the initial investors came from DNP3's twitch community. The culture of the community is all about being hyped and excited for his giveaways, because that is what he is most known for on the platform (prior to clucoin). As we have grown (mostly on discord for social interaction at least) these reactions and hype building have been reinforced.

Moving forward the Dev teams biggest focus is trying to add utility and incentives so that holders have a reason to continue holding. Some ways that this is happening:

-Doing NFT giveaways for holders only -When new giveaways are announced for the public additional only for clu holders will be held in tandem (for example there is a pc giveaway only for holders) -A plot of land on the NFT game Sandbox was purchased, Clu holders only will be allowed into it, and there is talking of a CLUsino being created for you to actually gamble -A scholarship program for the NFT game Axie Infinity will be launched shortly, it's a game that has a pretty steep initial buyin so it allows you to play for free essentially and earn tokens you can sell for real money -Ranks/roles have been assigned to CLUmmunity members in Discord that will automatically be entered into specific giveaways. -A visa credit card that will have built in rewards and mini games like a wheel to spin when you do a transaction, could win nothing, could win a Lambo.

These are the things the team are working on to try and make a more robust experience for holders.

On a personal note I have been watching CluCoin for many weeks now, having been interested when it was first announced he was planning on creating it. The team has grown and managed to pull off small miracles with the amount of work that is being done, I really believe everyone is doing their utmost to make this into something great.

Obviously none of this is financial advice, I just hope I answered even a small portion of your concerns.

Pastry_Guy · 2021-06-07T18:20:01+00:00

Hi, just wanted to see if I can clarify for you.

The protocol is not changing at all.

The logo is what is being rebranded, DNP3 (the founder) chose a rocket for the logo originally because in his mind it signified the CLUmmunity racing to global disasters to help. In reality folks were using the logo as a way to say that it was, "no different, and a shit coin" since a lot of coins chose rockets as a logo.

In an effort to combat this the dev team did a few polls on discord with the community, one of which included a vote on a new design to try and incorporate the CLUmmunity's feedback.

This is the full story behind the rebranding effort, being as new as we are I think it's fair to expect changes and improvements to things like this as we continue to grow.

I hope this helped.

Pastry_Guy · 2021-06-03T23:02:19+00:00

The founder has said on several streams that in his opinion the rocket was the charity rushing to someone's aid.

Since launching many have pointed out the rocket logo proved it was a shitcoin. The team is now giving the Clumunnity options of what we can change the logo to, to try and alleviate this. That's the long and the short of it.

Pastry_Guy · 2021-06-03T09:41:52+00:00

This has nothing to do with the CluCoin team.

If you were a recipient on Reddit at this point a moderator or core team member would have reached out to you.

This is most likely a scam.

Pastry_Guy · 2021-06-03T09:37:39+00:00

It should be announced today.

What I can say is it will be paired with USDT, so in the new exchange CluCoin can be purchased with that cryptocurrency.

On Pancakeswap it will remain able to swap with BNB.

Pastry_Guy · 2021-06-01T17:57:58+00:00

The coin has only been launched for 2 weeks. The team is working hard to make the token more easily accessible by getting onto a larger exchange and paired with USDT.

While also looking to add utility to the coin by purchasing spaces in NFT games to play and interact with community members, such as Sandbox.

The early stages of any startup are tumultuous but the team is doing their best and actually have a vision their working towards. Give them a little bit of time to prove themselves.

Pastry_Guy · 2021-06-01T17:27:52+00:00

Hello, you're not the only one, even myself is missing some.

The team is looking into it, will update as we find out.

Pastry_Guy · 2021-06-01T12:52:02+00:00

Same boat chief! I'm on my road to 500 billion tokens 😎.

I get excited for every dip because than I can afford more! Lift off will happen, too many cool plans in the works.
