Vector will run a mini crowd funding campaign (CFC) on Yobit Exchange to raise 10 BTC.

However, It is really a bad idea to investors, Without new features I doubt that it can survive if it hit Bittrex.

Yeah , Old Vector was it  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=826209.0   it was a scrypt POW with different specifications

Coin Specifications

    Proof-of-work: Scrypt
    33 million total coins
    100 VCT block reward
    Halving every 100,000 blocks
    30 second block targets
    rpcport=57333

Or will the number of new coins increase year over year forever?

I doubt that, When peoples learn to avoid buy ICOS, IPOS, Etc...

I just wanted to emphasize that both  CoolCoin & Solecoin(SOLE), Both yet keep with very low trade on Cryptsy, If not, Its could be coin dead, Both are listed on Coinmarketcap so they are barely alive for this reason I decided added this to:  Special cases.

Edit:  Such coincidence!    RipoffCoin (RIPO)   on same case barely alive and listed on Cryptsy .

Anyway those are the numbers:

                  marketcap
RipoffCoin(RIPO)  8 btc
Solecoin (SOLE) 10 btc
CoolCoin (COOL) 45 btc

Solecoin(SOLE)      Added to Special cases.

RipoffCoin(RIPO)       Added to Special cases.

CoolCoin(COOL)              Added to Special cases.
