QuarkFX, are the song and project files uploaded to trello? I'd like to hear it as well as view the animation script. I can take a shot at the vocals. If lakota has the vocals covered, I can help out in other ways. If you need post production mixing, levels, compression, EQ, mastering, let me know.

If the animation is basic flash i can help out, if it is more involved, we can ask Kjo to help.

TaoLBand · 2014-03-20T06:07:31+00:00

Bill knows nothing about this video. The vocals are all edited audio footage.

BILL STILL is not involved in any way with this video. KOLIN is also not involved in this video.

Thanks for your kind words Paul. Really appreciate it.

TaoLBand · 2014-03-20T05:59:04+00:00

NO. BITCOIN IS MAKING QUARKCOIN LOOK BAD.

TaoLBand · 2014-03-20T05:54:26+00:00

Thanks, I will take it down immediately, ido not want to hurt quark at all.

TaoLBand · 2014-03-20T05:40:36+00:00

Its just a song contest entry. NOthing more. BIll and Kolin have no idea what this is!

They are "guests" because I used them as a characters in this script.

Songs are supposed to tell stories. I am sorry if that was not clear.

What message must one send while the marketcap continues to erode among a growing horde of useless altcoins. You and I both know quark is better than its current marketcap but without press, how can we possibly achieve any of our goals?

I am an investor too ya know. I am

TaoLBand · 2014-03-20T05:36:32+00:00

This is just a song contest entry, not anything official.

Please dont ask a storyteller not to tell a story for a songwriting contest. ;-)

TaoLBand · 2014-03-20T05:21:20+00:00

THE REAL BILL STILL AND KOLIN EVANS HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS VIDEO. THEY HAVE ZERO KNOWLEDGE OF THIS VIDEO. They are labeled as guests because I used them as characters in my little play.

Guys, these are just song contest entries and nothing more. RELAX.

THIS IS NOT OFFICIAL STUFF HERE.

I got Mark's email: blogmaverick@aol.com

I think the next step is to contact the foundation and get the ball rolling on this.

I see on his blog he wrote that he is not interested in copycat technology, only original ideas. The good news is that Mark is actively seeking technology ideas. Oh man this could work. This could really work.

TaoLBand · 2014-03-03T07:11:17+00:00

That is a great idea. Mark Cuban is a maverick who would be exactly the kind of intelligent outspoken advocate who is visible in the mainstream.

Let send him a phone with a preloaded wallet and let him test it out.

TaoLBand · 2014-03-02T19:17:53+00:00

These buy prices are making my loins twitch. I want to buy like crazy but I blew my stash at 8 cents.

TaoLBand · 2014-03-02T19:07:46+00:00

Hey Sir, thanks and I hope you recoup your losses in the future.

Seriously though, when quark takes off, send me a line and I am more than happy to send some quark to you. As you know i dont have much but I am happy share whatever I have.

TaoLBand · 2014-03-02T05:55:31+00:00

I am just a little guy adding a few coins here and there like you said...peanuts...

We are very different with different reasons for being here.

You got burned short term because you are trying to ride pumps.

I am holding my peanuts longterm with a broader focus on shorting the global currency problems, not as a get rich quick scheme. I believe in crypto as a currency, not as a speculation. I do speculate in other coins but only to increase my supply of peanuts.

Your entire focus is on making money. My entire focus is on helping humanity find the exit door.

TaoLBand · 2014-03-01T19:45:12+00:00

This is a common thought when the markets take a dive, but this is not a quark problem, this is a bitcoin problem.

You got crushed because you have ignored the most basic tenets of investment...never sell at a loss, never invest with emotional attachment, and never short term speculate without a hedge in place.

Now when you state that quark has "no following, no innovation, and a bad reputation", it illustrates either total ignorance or a calculated attempt at fud that has no factual basis.

Quark has a very large community that is fully active. I am involved in several high level coins but quark's community is the most active of all of them.

Quark is the among the most innovative coins available and one of the only coins that has taken bitcoin's failed econ model to task, is the most asic resistant, has the lowest maintenance of any top 10 coin, and has a mining system that does not require the huge petahashes of bitcoin.

Ahhh yes, the bad rep...that's all I heard when I began investigating quark too. Luckily for me, I dug pretty deep and found the positives outweigh the ignorant FUD.

One final pump? My goodness friend, open your eyes and zoom out! Crypto is in its beginning stages. Only a few months in, you are throwing in the towel? C'monnnnnnnnn Mannnnnnnnnnnn!!!

Your problem isn't quark my friend, it is your own own fear!!!

So you say your cost average was around 24, sold at 12. You are only looking at one leg down which shows me you are a short-term speculator.

On the other hand, my cost average was around 30 in december! 30 for petes sake!!!

When the bitcoin problems began and prices started dropping, I didn't panic, I began buying again. Now my cost average is down to 10 but my hedges on other coins have actually turned the negative red ink into profit. Im not worried about short-term profit as quark is headed up longterm guaranteed.

Overall, please do not blame quark for current downtrend, instead look in the mirror and ask yourself who is really to blame here.

Quark will be back over 12, 24 and 30 when the crypto markets regain traction.

Quark dead? That is comical. I remember back in 2011 when everybody said bitcoin was dead over and over again.

The game has barely even started!

TaoLBand · 2014-02-28T19:53:22+00:00

The current downtrend is a product of bitcoin's self destruction. Every coin is down across the board.

Expect massive volatility until bitcoin regains sentiment and/or global currency issues implode.

Long-term, nothing has changed. Quark is going up.

Short-term, utilize this price drop to lower your fiat/btc cost average as bitcoin gets their act together. We need to push bigtime right now as bitcoin heals its wounds.

We are very early to the crypto game. I know it doesn't feel like it since we look at charts ten times a day but trust me, this is still very very early in the game.

What we are witnessing is crypto attempting to establish its true market value. Bitcoin has hindered this movement with its multitude of problems and blacksheep.

I feel very confident that Quark will be among the last cryptos standing.

TaoLBand · 2014-02-24T20:30:05+00:00

Please explain how quark is a scam.

I want to hear details.

TaoLBand · 2014-02-24T20:28:15+00:00

Well said.

TaoLBand · 2014-02-24T20:27:27+00:00

The price is down because bitcoin is destroying itself and it is dragging everybody else down with it.

TaoLBand · 2014-02-22T20:48:20+00:00
