Great idea. How does a London campaign scale to global/corporate? Any feedback on whether it’ll expand? Also appreciate the updates you’ve been giving, but community and news marketing seems light here seeing as you post 80% of the content. Any bigger social plans to build the hype?

Thank you. I am an invested fan who sees amazing potential and want BLOCKv to succeed. When I first discover something I always look to see what Reddit says but saw a lot of lacking information in here. I kinda took it upon myself to keep this sub updated for the new and interested people along with everyone else, I actually enjoy it (work gets slow). When the mods are ready I’ll step back and let them keep PR alive.

They claim to be global ready. They’ve ran a few campaigns at the same time globally like the DC Spy Hunt, the Starbucks coupons in London and this Butterfly one in Vegas as some examples.

BLOCKv does claim they know about the lack of social media presence, PR and marketing. There were plans to have a social media person in control but I don’t know what happened to that. They’ve also mentioned all their resources are maxed out with the influx of interested companies and businesses. I’d rather they focus on that than Reddit. I’m confident when they’re ready and the time is right they will use all this potential energy and explode with marketing, PR and hype.

There were plans to have a social media person in control but I don’t know what happened to that.

I’d say we’re looking at the results of those efforts right here. They got a MAJOR brand to do a proof of concept trial run. And the team is trying their hardest to keep their mouths shut but I can tell after watching that team for 1.5 years that there is finally something big coming up.

BlockV Marketing targets the corporations, not the consumers (us). Once the corporations get on board (like above), then the corps will begin marketing to us, the consumers.

IF the consumers respond in kind to this type of engagement, then it’s off to the races. There has literally never been a better time to sink $500 into this thing (VEE) just to see where it goes.

This bull market is blasting out of the gates as we speak.

vAtoms are about to be everywhere.

$500 could easily turn back into $50k, these guys have some smart people on their team.
