Title: A new digitical coin - InfiniCoin!
Post by: Mr.Bitcoin on August 16, 2011, 05:05:19 PM
Ladies and gentlemen, let me be the first to announce a new coin. It seems that forking (now referred to as f'ing) the Bitcoin protocol is the cool thing to do lately. And I'm nothing if not cool and trendy, so here goes:

InfiniCoin! It is in fact every digital coin except for the dreaded Bitcoin. Just replace 'infini' with your name of choice and BOOM! You've got a coin! Apparently you don't even need to know much about coding or how to be a decent human being to make a new coin.

Quote
Reasons I now think it's a scam after playing with it:
- They only made one minor modification to the source code (changing 50 -> 96)
- Already mined 400k IxCoins themselves.
- Copied and leveraged bitcoin community with minimal input. Product doesn't have much value on its own.
- wallet.dat is 52mb already. Within a year that will be 3gb. This is not sustainable in terms of computer resources.

(https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=36701.msg451360#msg451360)

I've already started a few of my own:
MrBitcoinCoin - I've only privately mined 1.4 quadrillion which is not much since there is no limit to the total amount that can be generated
MrsBitCoin - My lady wanted her own coin, so POW she has one
FCoin - Finally a coin that says what it does - trying to f-up Bitcoins. I considered calling it 'IHateBitcoinsAndWantToSeeThemFailCoin' While extrordinarily catchy, it is a little long to type.

Anyway, Just add your favorite coin here and we'll click the buttons to steal hard working miners, help people lose faith in Bitcoins, dilute the already tiny market for digital currency, and hopefully, just maybe, destroy Bitcoins!

Can you make me a SkyNetCoin fork?   I mean, it seems only suitable since SkyNet is going to fork the humans at some point.

Done! SkyNetCoin is in effect and slowly destroying humans and Bitcoins as we speak.

I also added BootyCoin to the list of new coins. Not that any of us are, but those other nerds can now say "Hey Sazerac11, I got a lot of Booty overnight! I bet you didn't you robo nerd!"

Title: Mycoin
Post by: sgravina on August 18, 2011, 06:21:39 PM
I had a similar idea.  But my idea is better.

I am announcing "Mycoin".

It's a peer to pear currency network that only I can access.  I'm going to mine all the coins myself and use them for my own purposes.  I haven't turned it on yet but when I do I won't attach it to the internet so that nobody else can get MyCoins.

If you compost your coins with correct amount of heat, water and oxygen you can get humuscoins.
