Part of NeuCoin's strategy to gain users werewas to engage the first content partners of the coin. This acted as proof of concepts,concept and included animation studio MondoMedia, music service Jango, and artist promotion company Radio Airplay. To help drive people to the coin and their partner companies, NeuCoin offered a few coins at no charge for users who chose the NeuCoin and created a new wallet on thesethose sites a few coins for free when they created a new wallet to help drive people to the coin and their partner companies. The company's partnership with music service Jango brought a reported 8,000 new users per day, who transacted with NeuCoin through the platform.
During the initial push to develop the user base of NeuCoin, the company developed games for the social media platform Facebook, in which the token would be used. The first game the company developed was Solitaire Racer, which had a reported 80,000 users over three months. Although not the number NeuCoin was hoping to see, the foundation behind the coin had announced the development of a second game, called SongQuest, which was a music trivia game intended to reach the Jango user base, and make use of that successful partnership.
These games were part of NeuCoin's initiative to build an entire ecosystem, to make the coin more inviting for users and to put the coin in many users' wallets, creating what some called passive users, but what. NeuCoin considered those to be users, as their stated goals were not to have the coin traded in the same way Bitcoin or Ethereum were being traded at the time.
The NeuCoin Foundation announced the failure of the project in late 2016. This came as support for the project from users was lower than expected, and the coin was subject to a wave of "altcoin fatigue," which had gone through the cryptocurrency communities of the time, as it was a point when new altcoins were being created nearalmost daily.
Further, the closing was tied to the inability for NeuCoin to develop value and trading volume for the token, with the price and trading volume decreasing the longer the project was around, itand decreaseda reduction in the possible incentive for buying or investing in the altcoin. This was despite the ecosystem NeuCoin was working to create.
