ORIGINAL POSTPoll added for the commuity to decide on the genesis block issue , do you want a new one or not?
Please vote. I will hold the release till then.
Hello Fellow ALTcoiners,
You might have seen the launch and the fail of 8Coin that was pretty much alleged that the Original Dev, kept himself with 50 coins or so , I see great potential in this coin and decided to bring it back to life since the Devs have negelected the coin upto now and no news or updates from them as we speak , therefore with the support of the community I look forward to bring this coin back to life. * Ofcourse if the Devs would want to carry on thereafter I would be more than happy and would extend my support fully if such stance in obtaining the new updated wallet and carry on with the reviving of the coin , and I would give them everything I can to support them
Now to outline a few added specifics the new release they are as follows:
* First of All there will be a new Genesis Block
* Kimoto Gravity Well (Courtesy of Dr. Kimoto Chan) will be implemented to curb difficulty issues.
* There will be reward tweaks and random blocks etc.
* There will be no premine what so ever.
* Blocks will start paying from the 1st block itself so keep an eye.
* I will provide a pool to start off with , pool operators are more than welcome to start a pool for this coin and link me with it.
*If the Devs would like to come back supporting the coin , I'd be more than happy to give them everything I can and support them to get them starting off again with the new wallet and specs and renew the interest of this wonderful coin.
While the above are the additions towards the coin , below would be the original Specs put forth by the original Dev on the original Thread and other threads of the same coin.
