Sorry guys, our hosting provider for the pool went down just before the post was made, it's the first time I ever see this happen. I contacted them and they are working on resolving the issue right now.

The presentation is written. "m0rkcoin is a ByteCoin fork and strongly focuses on privacy and anonymity with features such as:
Unspecified payments
Unrelated transactions
Proof of double flow
"
I would like to clarify. And what is the difference from the original? Speed and cost of transactions? Protection from hacker attacks?

"soft launched around mid Jan 2018" means "we have full pockets of coins and still can say NoPremine"

The subreddit, Discord and pool have been available and public for a little while now and we had around 20 different users come and go, some mined more than others. It's nothing malicious, we didn't know exactly how things would go so we didn't want to bring too much attention to it right at the start and risk crashing the network (we started with 2 small seed nodes). We aim to be transparent as much as possible, so we are open to questions, feedback and criticism.

Well StonerStanley I'm sorry you feel that way :-\ we didn't plan every aspect of M0rkcoin from the start and it looks like it's catching up a bit to us at the moment when we read comments like yours. We do aim to being the most open and transparent altcoin, so I can only ask you to keep an open mind. I do understand that from your perspective you can be skeptical, but I'm sure that if you follow the evolution of m0rkcoin you will change your mind.

Found the pool yesterday and I've mined almost 2000 coins at 250H/s in 24 hours!

I am also pretty new to coins and mining. I gave this coin a shot, and did some mining for about 12 hours here. I received about 500 coins. Not bad. It has a ways to go before any real value can be put on it, and from what I can tell the community is pretty small.(which is awesome!)

I definitely want to get to know some of the other people working on this, and see how I can fit into it all as part of a growing community. I am on the discord channel with the same  username as here.

Must be worth wild for someone to spend hash power mining it.  I've been mining it since mid Jan with my small 500 h/s rig, could be a worth it or maybe not, all crypto is a gamble but calling a project a scam without any facts to back it up isn't right

It appears the genesis block was around 50 days ago, so early January, rather than mid. You also had a massive spike in difficulty 2 days ago, around the same time as your [ANN] here.

I will be pointing some of my hashrate towards your pool, but you are doing multiple things wrong Devs; suggest you listen to the criticism and suggestions and questions of the users here, if you want this to go anywhere.

Here's a start then: What is the purpose of your coin? Why does it exist?

Aris_Eng,  what suggestions would you have for the developers?  If they are doing multiple things wrong then why bother using your hash rate to mine it,  seems a bit hypocritical!!

Wolverine37, I did make suggestions, please read my post again. One and probably the most important is answer questions; again, see my question above.

Wrt mining it, that is not being hypocritical, that is betting using my investment, being electricity+cost of hardware; crypto is a space where nothing has intrinsic value other that that which we assign to it.

May I ask why do you mine it, and what your opinion of the devs is?

I found the code on github in early January,  there were 10-15 of us that did apparently and decided to take a risk on it considering their background in developing android apps and the fact that they've actually developed something.  Most of the new coins coming out have issues because the dev have no clue what they are doing,  the blockchain fails, the wallets don't work, etc etc, it gets old spending hash power on coins that fail or are clearly pump and dump,

for those of you who think the bitcoin forum is the only place to find new and interesting projects you're missing out on a lot of other great stuff being worked on.  The dev is not required to release anything on this forum as the code has been available since the first day you could have mined it,  most of this forum is filled with people who call everything a scam with no proof so I'm not surprised dev are reluctant to post on here anymore,  and I suspect most of the people calling it a scam have competitive coins that don't work and can't figure out why

Aris_Eng, don't blame the dev because you're late to get into it and/or only rely on one source for new projects,  the difficulty is still really low and there's still plenty to mine

Thanks mate, now we are getting somewhere. You "found" the code on github? If that's the whole story, good for you...
You do realize that being a newbie on this forum, and only ever have posted on this coin, seems suspicious right?

I don't blame the dev because I am late, or because the difficulty is higher now. I asked a question (still no answer by the way), and most people pointed out that doing an [ANN] saying "no premine" when indeed it was being mined since early January is a false statement, for this forum.

Lastly mate, you say the dev is not required to release anything on this forum.... that is both true and false. True they are not "required", false in that if they are going for "fair launch" and no ICO, they need a community and they need miners, and this forum is how they get them.

This isn't the only forum to posts projects to, hopefully you know that and yes I found the code.  I was actually mining another coin (XAO) and when it failed I asked in discord what others were mining while the dev fixed the blockchain issues.  Someone responded with m0rk so after doing a little searching I was able to find the info. on git.  I've gotten sick of spending hash power on crypto when the dev doesn't have a clue.  It was actually nice to see a dev make sure the backend worked before having a rush of miners go in and there be a problem.  I think it's funny you think I'm a newbie because of my lack of posts.  If you only had a clue you'd realize dev hate these forums because they're filled with people like you who mine there projects hoping to make a buck without actually having your own skill to do it yourself and then you bash the project as scam.  Don't mine it if you feel it's a scam.  Let the rest of us keep those coins.

Thanks for the response, I can see that you are getting very defensive; you shouldn't.
I was also mining alloy since day 1; went through the 1st hard fork drama, then the chain getting stuck, then the multiple NH attacks on a poorly adjusted difficulty recalculation, and now apparently going through the change of algo altogether.

Here are the facts however: unless you are the dev of this coin, I don't care about your opinion or experiences with other coins. Again, don't take it personally. You are a newbie on this forum, you have only posted on this ANN, and seem to be a cheerleader, so sorry for not taking you seriously..

Back to our regular programming now: Dev(s), do you have any answers? Any statements, or even want to participate in the discussion so far?

I'm not the dev nor do I really care.  Just sick of people like you trolling these forums bashing everyones work and then mining it to make some $$.  He seems to be newbie also considering he has only 3 posts on here.  Must not know much but look him up and you'll find he's actually a pretty good developer.  He's much more active on discord so you should try him there.  BTW, you should head back over to the XAO forum and post your scam conspiracy theories there.  4.5M premine, the head dev leaves, blockchain fails and now nicehash attacks?  With a coin basically worth 0 why would someone spend money attacking it?  I'm a newbie but it's not difficult to figure out who's really dumping all those coins on tradeogre.  You should mine that one and let us have all the m0rks.

Agree. I wouldn't have wasted my time mining this had I known a cryptonight ASIC was developed.

Assuming the devs have not abandoned this project I wonder if they have discussed changing this  (hopefully something more GPU friendly)

Hey Everyone!

We wanted to let everyone know that although the original dev has stepped aside from the project, some of us community members (with the original dev's permission) have decided to keep the project going. On a group effort we changed the name to something more attractive to the public. The name we decided on is MCash! So far everything is in the process, but is currently being worked on.

If you mined M0rkcoin in the past, don't fret, because our goal is to make sure that the time and electricity you spent on won't go to waste! The original mining pools are shut down, but there is a new one that the link is provided down below. Also you will need to use the original wallet for now. Currently a new wallet is being developed and will be announced once it is finished.

For any questions, we are very active on Discord: https://discord.gg/d5RpJVR (https://discord.gg/d5RpJVR)

It seems like this is a promising project, when almost all projects rely on ICO so here there is no ICO and hope to be available soon in many exchanges like binance or livecoin.

There was no pre-sale. Originally there was no premine with M0rkcoin either, but all the coins mined since the soft launch in January will be usable with the new name MCash.
