that is correct: in order to be able to give folks enough time to exchange coins for the ones actually backed by carbon (now only the new coin) we are exchanging all coins until block 500,000 and GRE is on block 363939 (727.9 M out of 1B coins) so there will be another 272.1 M to get spit out before we no longer would accept them. So 1.63 M of the 6 M haven't even been claimed yet.

Block 363,939 hit at 8 PM and is the block representing the final payout to producers that will be made in GreenCoins representing production through today (Feb 27th, and, assuming the new coin keep chugging along of course). Tomorrow's producer payout will be made from newly minted CO2X coins

Read near the end of the OP. I feel like I've gone into this in so much detail so many times I really don't know what to say.


Not yet unfortunately

OP updated:

Official name: CO2ExchangeCoin (read CarbonExchangeCoin)
Official symbol: CO2X

Algo: X11. There was an issue with the custom CPU-only mining algo that caused us to move the re-launch.

Launch is still 8 PM pacific Friday (tomorrow) evening (4AM GMT Saturday)

maybe send these pro rata to everyone who exchanged?

What do you guys think about changing the name to be more carbon specific? I like:

Name: CO2Xcoin, read as "Carbon Exchange Coin"
Symbol: CO2X

A GreenCoinX already exists? 
https://greencoinx.com/

maybe we should call it something else?? Suggestions??

Launch will be Friday, February 27th at 8:00 PM Pacific time (Sat, 4 AM GMT).

I'm here and in the chat room #greencoin, what do you mean?

yes

I know it is short notice now, but I added the coin to the calendar but I'm not seeing it show up: it's been held for admin validation:

Assuming the X launch is successful the old coin will simply not be supported by the Foundation, however, it will probably continue to exist so you are free to mine as long as you like, and of course any coins generated up to block 500,000 can be traded for GREX at 167 to 1.

"If you put a price on carbon, through a direct tax or other methods, it would enlist markets in the fight against global warming."

I vote for "other method..."   

We have an official ANN thread going for the new coin launch:

So I'm locking this thread now. Please comment in the new thread, thanks!

No apologies necessary! It isn't very clear yet so we should begin to discuss it. I currently do not have an online exchange running and probably wouldn't try to operate one for security reasons. WHat I haven't done yet, but will this week, is ask both Allcoin and Bittrex if they can operate an exchange and that would be the easiest (though they would charge a small fee). In the absence of either of these options I would work with each individual either through PM here or you can email support@grcoin.com. The steps would work like this:

- Ideally you would contact me first with the new GREX address (helpful but not required you would also quote the amount of coins to be exchanged)
- I would reply and send you a unique GRE address to send the old coins to
- Once I receive the coins to the unique GRE address I will send the requisite new GREX coins over to you
