What does that actually mean though? If a developer brings out a new coin in the future full of innovations and took a year to code what is your objection to him profiting from his hard work?

To be fair I made two separate posts querying what the starting difficulty would be in that topic and to my surprise not a single person responded or picked them up.

Everyone forgets the 'scam' claims in the run up to a coin launching and conveniently stop caring, because they hope they are going to get rich from it. As soon as they don't get rich, out come the pitchforks.

Mined 20k on the first day.

Just put all the trading topics and giveaways in a separate sub-forum. Straight away that is a big chunk of the 'non-content' topics taken care of in a fair way.

People are already starting to ignore coins which don't offer anything new. Royal Coin looks like it gained virtually no traction from it's launch. It's getting harder. A coin has to have a new idea now or 'twist' to get momentum... YACoin did that with the cpu mining thing. Not buying any though, I don't see the cpu mining thing lasting long

Word. I was about to say, wait until media coverage spreads that there is an alternative cryptocurrency which isn't going for 40 cents a coin or 3 dollars a coin, but 70-90 dollars a coin. Will bring lots of attention for sure.

This new pool came out recently - btb.ltcoin.net

I would be interested in this. Why not make a separate topic and see public opinion? Must be other people like me around with nvidia cards that can only mine cpu coins like Yac.

Fontas, you are not.

I couldn't get the windows build to accept more than 8 connections, even when forwarding the port.

Yeah. Mincoin is similar in that regard too. And has a lot of haters. Seems like mincoin, nvc and bitbar have more in common than just scarce supply.

Let's see what the free market prices them at. At the current difficulty only 20 bitbars  are made a day across the entire network... will the price reflect that... check back in 48 hours to find out  

Is this the standard? Doesn't that make this one of the fastest if not the fastest coin?

I don't understand this stuff well, so please explain if I am wrong.

I can tell you hashrate is at least part of it because I've been using every computer in the house to mine it. For me the pattern has been the machines with high hashrate have gotten virtually no orphans, the machines with low hashrate all orphans. That's my experience.

If you guys all posted your hashrate I think you would see the answer staring you in the face.

Nice. All they need to do now is put a BitBar tab at the top so everyone can see it's on there. I wouldn't have known if I hadn't read this topic.

Any tips how to stop that happening? 

I am getting 'generated but not accepted'?

At the current difficulty looks like a miner would be lucky to make 1 bitbar a month... surprised actually bitbar difficulty still rising so fast given some of the bad publicity.

We need another bitbar mining pool
