Title: new idea for giveaway
Post by: barwizi on June 03, 2013, 06:40:46 PM
Since i'm designing a new coin, i looked at some social aspects. People like giveaway, but thay are hard to maintain and sometimes run dry. Is it possible to make it so every wallet starts with a set balance of maybe 5 coins. that would cut out the give away aspect.

I could create endless new user accounts and new wallets to keep getting coins. Would require too much work to eliminate cheating. Good idea though

Then what is to stop me from downloading one million wallets and pwning the network?

making the give away amount negligible and specifying one add per client.

Yes one add per client but whats to say I download the client and keep making new ones and sending to the same address. It just wont work sorry nless you make it really worthless so people dont waste their time but then what is the point in it in the first place?
