Fragcoin Pre-release announcement!


We are a well organized development team and have been hard at work over the last 2 months.

SHA-3 Blake algo has been decided on, with CPU and GPU miners available on launch.

More details will come soon.

Currently a social gaming website to host tournaments with Fragcoin prizes is under development.

A separate team is working on integrating Fragcoin prizes into an old school FPS shooter, so you can earn frags for gaming.

Modern FPS integration is in the works, also, and Starcraft or Starcraft 2 is being considered.



Right now, we can't give too many details.

Check this thread and subscribe at the site for updates!

We'll be done when its ready... but sooner rather than later. Advance notice of at least 1 week will be given here, and to email subscribers.



Here's our fresh-off-the-renderer teaser/intro video!!

If you're a pool operator, or would like to discuss services / promotion for Fragcoin, please email us at fragcoin@gmail.com ... Thanks!




INFO: Originally we were going to release this as a "cpu only new sha-3 algo" coin, using JH hashing. The community expressed concerns that it even though it was a unique implementation, it wouldn't stay CPU only for long. So we've decided to work off a proven project with Blake SHA-3 hashing, with CPU and GPU miners provided to the community at launch. And of course, win/mac/linux wallets.

Right now we're working on an open source port of Quake 3, but we plan to add DOOM support, and duke 3d would be awesome :D

someone should develop an fpscoin, where you earn coins while you play fps game, via score

score = converted in coin, everything should be proportional obviously

... that's what we're doing right now, lol :D   

The game leaders, or top 3 places, will win coins.
