Oh, all our communication were happening at #sambacoin on IRC in last days... The rewards are real...

We will update our reward list to include more itens, like a forum, so we will stop to make things on IRC, so the SambaCoin development and rewards will be more transparent for all users.

It's a new coin, but we are interested to improve it!

The launching has been made on this thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=471424.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=471424.0). One guy on that thread (ShadowOfScales). made the suggestion to announce here...

The first four days have been mined for Linux guys, because we are Linux native admins... and the Windows wallet was released today, but that don't matter... the network difficult today was 0.0003, after the Windows wallet release, most miners started to do the work

If you want to get more coins, pay attention on Samba Carnival, 10x more Sambas in 4 days, don't lose that opportunity!

Sorry, our goal was to release Windows version soon after release... Since Unix environment is most easy for us, as compensation you can check about the tecnical network quality:

- No one trouble in wallet connections, all our servers and DNS are redundant
- Even NTP Synchronization among then, allowing high time precision without technical faults of other know coin launches.

When you are sorry, pull out the plug and relaunch. This is now a coin for the altcoin graveyard.

See? This is where your coin is now.

When you tell about that, you mean a fail about the release date? That is not a technical failure, but a release failure, I thing... If that cause a lot of pain as you have said, I've no problems to re initialize the coin

I just want to know the better approach for now, you gave me a point, what the other people think about? abort coin and relaunch?

People,

Due the lacking of Windows Wallet and the incorrect post on the wrong list, the SambaCoin will be shutdown and recreated for a new release.

Sorry for release date and wallet troubles, but we want our coin to be profit and make all miners happy. The new release date will be tomorrow: 02/22/2014, 20:00 UTC.

Poorly done, but at least you had the good sense to scrap it and give it a second shot. 

Best of luck on your re-launch tomorrow

Hi,

We don't get people to get a bad impression of Sambacoin... We admit that we need to address these 2 issues, and additionally we are removing ANY pre-mining from the coin. I already have spend a lot of money with development and structure, a SCAM coin will not help in my reputation

Tomorrow everthyng will be ok!

New launch date, now absolutely NO premining. Enjoy:
