a ponzi scheme is one in which the early investors are paid off by later investors. A pos coin with a fast initial distribution is nothing like a ponzi scheme because there is no guarantee later investors will pay the same rate you paid for the coins.
tl;dr GTFO troll
"Oh you didn't get in on the 5 week mining period? That's okay you can buy some coins from me so that you can eventually sell to others like you!" There is no guarantee of profits therefore its not a ponzi scheme. The only guarantee is how the coin is distributed and if you saw the coin ANN and passed because of the premine that's your choice. Life is all about choices and nobody is forcing you to buy the coins now because you missed out, but if you want to you are welcome to purchase but there is no guarantee you will be able to sell for more than you paid. The only guarantee is you will receive your pos payments for holding the coins. The rest is up to the free markets. Calm down buddy ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

his coin is going to be pure PoS
= Piece of Shit That's not true PoS is fair™ green™ and we totally didn't take it from peercoin.

This coin is going to be pure PoS and you can only mine the first week. Therefore it's an even bigger ponzi scheme than other PoS coins.
There's a 2% premine, but that's okay because it's Transparent™ and Professional™
Also there's probably an exchange coming and we're definitely gonna be a 1 billion market in a year. I would also like to unveil the revolutionary new Algorithm based on a minimalist philosophy. We call it. "NOTHING NEW" Say hello to MichaelcerawithamustacheMAN ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fa.pomf.se%2Fyyoxap.PNG&t=663&c=w7hHA-fONtt3vQ)

Hi, I'm working on a project and need a windows wallet to be compiled.
I have BTC/USD to pay with. Message me if you're interested.

When do you guys expect to have the Digibyte exchange up and running?
I think this will make it easier for people to purchase DGB, and coupled with the other developments should increase the price quite a bit.
We are still several months away from this. The licensing and legal requirements are very complex and not very well defined at the moment. We are looking into several other options as well including "pre-paid" DigiByte cards through an existing bank. Aren't you guys supposed to be at 1 billion marketcap at the end of the year? I mean, it is what you promised.

Gingermod just get out, please. Enough already. Just leave.
Is this your typical response when people say things that don't go your way?

Gingermod, calling something irritating....
I went through Gingers post, all she does is trash talk and has probably only discovered crypto currency 1.25 months ago. If everyone in this thread presses the ignore Gingermod button will he just disappear? ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) 3* he* Just waiting for a good currency to come out, in the meantime, it's pretty fun to rile you guys up.

So I guess that each batch of coin as they get past 20 days will be minted since I'm on a second minting today. While I was typing this the skate changed again so it looks like more are minting. The number now read Balance: 993296.289856 MINT Stake: 60648.341174 MINT Since I was getting coins ever 2~6 minutes does that mean it will mint more every 2~6 minutes. The first coins that hit my wallet was on 2/6/14 14:50 and the first minting was 2/26/14 19:18 ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fi1061.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Ft472%2FTimFChavez%2FUntitled_zps081d4081.png&t=663&c=VI-pdghmIwegWQ) That font choice is hideous I agree with you for once ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Ahh guys <3 This coin is still effectively a ponzi scheme tho ;^) Cheeky bastard, I give up Oh you didn't get in on the 5 week mining period? It's okay you'll have to buy coins from me so that you can eventually sell to others like you I still dislike you lol, I don't mine I bought in at 7 I've got my investment back and some ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) and I still have a fair bit of Mint! I love this coin Gingermod = FUD Of course ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Speaking the truth is not FUD. Sure, you'll make money on this coin in the short term, especially if you know how to daytrade. However, you should stop pretending this is the next Bitcoin. I never said it was the next Bitcoin I said it could be, nobody knows the future. Hell yeah it's unlikely but who really knows? Yeah but that's irritating as shit, do you know how many devs advertise with. "stay for the future" "who knows!" "will this be the next bitcoin? possibly" No, "mint" coin will never surpass the multi-billion market of Bitcoin You do know there a coin with a dog on it with the 4/5th highest market cap of all cryptos, anything can happen in this game. Yeah and there's very good reason for that. It was the first meme coin fueled by a massive reddit community trying to beat every other coin just for the ironic hilarity of using a DOG based currency.

This coin is not a ponzi anymore than bitcoin is, but in any case neither are. In bitcoin the mining phase is a long time but becomes a serious problem as people have to reinvest more and more into mining gear to maintain it. MINT says okay, we will give a set period of time for anyone to mine it fair and square. This eliminates the perpetual mining problem that is beginning to plague the crypto world and will only get worse if we don't stop it now. Use your mining gear now, and get into MINT and then it is still fair game for everyone even after that is over. As everyone can just buy it if they want to fair and square.
The point is that with most coins you run this rat race of perpetually needing more and more mining gear - economically wasteful. MINT gives miners a fair shot to get in and get their worth for the future, with the whole intent that additional mining gear in the future will not be needed (which is a good thing).
Mining is not a perpetual problem. False dilemma.
