@PeercoinNews needs your help! - New Twitter account about #Peercoin

Hello Peercoiners,

I’ve recently created a new Twitter account that collects and tweets all relevant news connected to our Peercoin world: @PeercoinNews.

How does it work?

Several ‘bot’ accounts are collecting information:

  • @RedditPPC: All new content posted on Reddit r/Peercoin is collected on this Twitter account. I also manually add content from other subreddits when I find any.
  • @PeercoinTalk: Any new PeercoinTalk posts (titles only) are collected with this account. For privacy/confidentiality purpose, I made sure to have this account private.. I manually collect comments when they are relevant.
  • @ppcoinNews: This account automatically fetches ppcoin development news directly from GitHub.

The final account that collects all relevant content is @PeercoinNews. I manually perform the filtering and tweet or retweet information.

How can you contribute?

  • Do not hesitate to tweet me links or comments on Twitter to any of the above accounts. i.e.: If there’s a topic on Reddit that needs to be tweeted for more visibility and that doesn’t appear on @RedditPPC please send a Tweet to @RedditPPC. Such as: “Hey @RedditPPC, could you RT https://www.reddit.com/r/NuBits/comments/2rw3cx/proof_of_work_vs_proof_of_stake/ please? This is important stuff!”
  • You can also directly contribute on Reddit via r/Peercoin, the new threads are automatically collected by @RedditPPC.
  • On Twitter you can also publicly post something about Peercoin using the hashtag #Peercoin. I manually retweet relevant tweets that are using the hashtag #Peercoin. This action is directly performed from the @PeercoinNews account.

Why are you doing this?

I do this on my free time and not for profit. I have noticed that our Peercoin community has a lack of communication with the outside world about what is happening internally. The purpose of this @PeercoinNews Twitter account is to bring more visibility for our community (i.e. Peercoin’s score on CoinGecko). And finally, have a community that can react fast to defend the Peercoin or Proof-of-Stake cause when this topic is debated and hammered on various platforms such as Reddit.

What should I do now?

Please comment. Tell me what you think about it. If you agree with the idea do not hesitate to spread the information, follow @PeercoinNews on Twitter and most of all Retweet!

Thank you.

Great work Thireus!

Great job!

Excellent! Following it. Like the avatar and background image.

Excellent work, Thireus. It is good to see you supporting the Marketing of Peercoin.

Thank you.

I’ve just made the @PeercoinTalk account publicly available. I’m only collecting new topic’s titles. I can’t really find a clever way to collect comments too. I’ll thus add relevant comments manually to this account when I can.

These accounts are great, nice to have a larger presence on twitter.

I think it would be good to have a similar thing for Peer4commit too, tweeting about donations and distributions. I’m not sure how to see these things apart from manually checking each project page individually though. Anyway, I registered @Peer4commit and will look into it sometime, or if anyone knows a good way to do it then I can transfer the account to them.

Thanks for the feedback river333. Do you know if there is a RSS feed for Peer4commit to track donations, newly added projects, etc.?

Thank you for doing this, I’m just getting into twitter and using it more, now following all 3 accounts ty

Nice, the Chinese community just released a weibo, repost the weibo with your best guess of closing price of the NSR to be auctioned+ NBT address. Closest guess/winner may get 5 NBT.
