ApeCoin (scrypt) just went live yesterday and seems to have survived its first night without crib-death. So...it could use some pool action now, as solo mining has lost its usefulness. If anybody here runs one of those mining pool sites or has dirt on someone who does, let me know.

It could also use some exchange action, now that you mention it. (You mentioned it.)
Thanks!
