Title: are there any alt-chains that allow the use of scripts that bitcoin doesnt
Post by: t3a on January 16, 2012, 07:39:10 PM
Bitcoin disallows the use of opcodes such as or, and, concatonation, etc. Are there any currencies that have these enabled?

no, make your own. although you'll need to come up with a different hashing system, or luke-jr is going to stall your blockchain.

I doubt he would if I added new features and didn't just make it a new ponzi-chain.

The problem with CoiledCoin wasn't merged mining. Merged mining will help adoption and make your coin more secure, like it does with Namecoin.

But don't just announce and start the chain all in one day. Provide the source at LEAST a week before launch, be extremely transparent, and convince a couple major pools to support merged mining from the start.
