My pump has been on all the time at HashCows. But it isn't a large pump, only about 2 mh/s haha

I've been in contact with 'tysat', he forwarded my request to 'SaltySpitoon'. However, I'm still waiting for a reply.
I guess it wouldn't hurt if you contacted them too on my behalf.

The sooner we get back that ANN Post the better. Then we can make a shortlist of the team and our backlog.

Another thing; I'd like to volunteer for the team as well:
- I'm here on regular basis and can reply to various questions
- Even though I'm a software engineer, I don't have the experience (yet) or the time to actively develop on the coin. I do have time to review changes + maybe even do some testing work which I can report back to the community.

Can you elaborate on that? Either here or on a pm to the moderators of bitcointalk?
That way we can pick things faster and possibly:
- Get ownership of this topic or the ANN post
- or lock this topic and open up a new ANN post
- or get access to the faircoin-team account.

Word from the moderator; they don't want to get involved in altcointalk because this is a bitcointalk site after all (sounds logical to me).
I did ask however if we can either get ownership over this topic or get a lock so that one of us can start a new topic.
I recommended giving the original dev two more weeks to pick up where he left off before taking such an action.
Currently I'm waiting for a reply.

Dunno, I'm still mining it ;-)
Plus we're still rising on MintCoin. On place 81 now. That was 89 yesterday.
So keep on voting!

Also donated 250k to the faucet at http://explorer.kimocoin.com/faucet

@forgetme; Faucet gives some Avast warnings; can you look at it?

Has it lost it's value? I'd beg to differ. You could also say it has never reached it's potential value. My view on this:
If you look at the point where this coin hit mintpal, it was about 400 to 500 satoshi. Then it grew to around 1500 to 2000 satoshis in a very short time. After that we all know what happened. The coin got 'abused' and once some people found out it couldn't be abused anymore (imho because too many people owned it and there wasn't much volume on exchanges) it was left to rot. Leaving it at the point where it is now, around 450 to 550 satoshi with a lot of angry people who had high expectations and invested a lot of BTC when the price was 2500 to 5000 satoshis (I recall; "BC and FAC, the King and Queen of the AltCoins").

So we've learned our lesson the hard way - we got pumped and dumped - (once again hehehe) and we're back where we were. Now let's cut out the negativity and sarcasm and get this coin back on the road :-)

Who can set up an Escrow and find the things out that need to be found out? I'm happy to throw in 10.000 FAC if this plan can work. I think 10.000 FAC can easily translate to 3 to 4 BTC in time.

Update: I've asked the bitcointalk moderators for a way for us to change the OP. Updating the title and that thing with recent events and plans will at least give a bit more trust to this coin.

omg Is it just me? When I read this thread, I can hear the english/chinese accent in my mind 
"u no crash ball! fake balance! no rise trust!" 

We'd still have to think it through though. Given that:
- It has been less then two weeks since the dev reported in with a message, even though it feels like forever. Isn't that too short to take over?
- Our 'faircoin-team' (or atleast his cookied browser) is still online about every day.
- Don't forget the NXT-E event where presumably part of the block chain got rolled back. How can one control the blockchain and roll it back? How can we prevent that from happening?
- There are some really really really phat wallets in the top 10 of the richlist. As far as I can remember there where only two addresses containing more then 1.000.000 coins. Now there are four. I can remember being in the top 100 list. Now I'm waaaay down. Someone people are still buying this coin dirt cheap.

So when we develop this coin and add value to it, who's wallet will we exponentially phatten besides our own? What will that do to the market when mr w,x,y and z decide to dump their stack for 100x the value that they used to buy this coin? Because really, that's what we're talking about. There are only 50.000.000 FairCoins. BC goes for 30.000 to 40.000 a coin and that coin is being played heavily.

I'd definitely want to support a Development Team for this coin - that would be awesome. But not w/o someone with much more expertise then me can make a judgement about the coins health and the risks.

So, now what? Since the developer is prolly gone and away.. What do we need to keep the coin alive and make adjustments?
- The Sources are on https://github.com/visbtc/fair-coin
- http://fair-coin.info/ domain has to expire (if we really want an .info domain with a dash in it)
- http://faircoin.com/ is much more interesting, but taken...
- http://fac.blockx.info/connected-nodes, is there any kind of account required there?
- We need to update the openingpost. Lets PM a moderator about the options...

Any coin developer with a little time and some more experience available to take over the development of this coin and make it work again?

Supported this cause by allowing Thunderclap to send a message through Twitter on my behalf

When people get their stuff, please post on the forum! Throw in some pictures as well.
It'll be good for the promotion of this coin :-)

Due to the distribution model almost everyone is in the top 500 list :-)
Currently I'm in the 'wait it out' mode, because normally once I sell coins the price will rise dramatically

This coin is becomming a bit of a Soap. Only that alone should tenfold the prise imho

"The Fair Coin Soap"

That's not the worst part; the coin will take serious damage too as most of the votes will be deleted.
Just keep on voting. No need to hurry

And still voting while waiting ;-)

+1, I still think Dev has l33t Ninja Skillz - if not then we'll get there someday.


Still scooping up more coins every day @ HashCows; 500 now per mh...

+1 Totally agreed. 50 million is not much when you're mining ~380 coins per megahash per day.

I think the problem right now is that the low price of FairCoin allows this coin to disappear into the pockets with people with too much BTC in their hands. I can only assume that in the end 5 to 10 people own a majority share in FairCoin, and that's the point when things get less Fair because they'll start toying with it and we'll fall for their game.

Ah we haven't hit rock bottom yet. I forgot that we had to do name calling and death threats...

@TS/DEV: Title of the topic still accurate "MULTIPOOL PAYS --- 20%--- BONUS! for the next week!!"? I don't see HashCows paying 20% more because we're mining FairCoin Plz fix. This is confusing

If you can't pump by buying into FairCoin, atleast pump using your megahashes at HashCows.
Got another payment this night; after a day worth of mining @ 1.2 mh/s the reward yield approx 400 FairCoin.
Steady payments, steady mining...
