I'm not sure if the world needs another Ethereum. But if you're interested in discovering the next great cryptocurrency, you should look into Goldcoin (GLD). Our developer is a Cisco systems developer and attended college with Vitalik Buterin.

Our principle mission is to create a bullet-proof blockchain that can be used as a safe haven for value storage. We created the world's first 51% defense system and a difficulty algorithm that outperforms all competitors. Jon Matonis has recently endorsed our plan to fulfill Satoshi's vision.

The word is getting out, the price and volume are rising. This might be a good time to investigate our community-centric commodity. The gold standard of digital currency.

Yes. If we can get more in the community to lobby these exchanges, our chances will increase.

~~

These exchanges are actually losing revenue by not adding GLD. Our volume has improved recently.

Let's get serious and achieve something that's never been done before in history.

We have the tools to complete the unfinished work of Satoshi. Let's make Goldcoin his masterpiece complete.

That is our primary focus, to protect our blockchain from being co-opted or subverted and to remain decentralized.

In a nutshell, we intend to build GoldCoin into the ideal that Satoshi would have wanted. We're like Bitcoin Classic only with better devs and less drama.

You need to first decide what is your objective - is it trading? investing? Trading is not based on fundamentals, while investing IS based on fundamentals.

My advice would be to lean towards value investing. Find altcoins that are worth more than the market recognizes. This can be done by examining community involvement, inflation rate, branding, and philosophical values. Why was the currency created? What are its principles and mission?

Ask yourself which coins are most likely to fall into favor with consumers and general public. The big payoff will come down the road, somewhere a few years out, when the people of the world awaken to digital currency. Position yourself now for that inevitable reality.

Exactly. I feel bitcoin's founder failed to recognize the currency's vulnerability within its core operation. Like many of the world's governments, it has fallen under corporate control.

Many here are not longer concerned with what Satoshi had in mind. I read a bitcointalk staff member saying the other day that "Satoshi's vision is irrelevant."

I agree with this sentiment, only I think BTC (at least core) is already controlled by corporate interests.

Dogecoin does have a great community but it seems to be losing a little steam. GoldCoin is probably the most undervalued altcoin on the market at this time. Growing community, open workforce, and increasingly scarce. Plus our developer is a Cisco Systems engineer.

Currently, we don't have any plans for signature or avatar campaigns.

The Open Workforce was established to provide a living wage to cryptocurrency workers.

~~

We have decided to double the pay of all Open Workforce workers beginning today!

You might have noticed that the POW criteria lately has been higher than before. Rather than lowering our standards, I think it is better to compensate deserving effort. Our very success hinges on our terrific workforce.

We are serious about making money great again and our people will be taken care of always.

"Resiliency, not efficiency, is the paramount goal of decentralized, non-state sanctioned currency." ~ Jon Matonis

We are going to take this currency to the top, it's not a matter of if, it's a matter of when. Always bet on Gold!

The development team is closely monitoring the network. I'm being told by the team that the client changes are working as expected.

Here are the major changes:

1. Maximum block size increased from 1MB to 2MB.
2. Minimum transaction fee reduced to .01 GLD
3. Block reward now 4 (generation rules rolled forward 20 years)

Thank you for choosing GoldCoin. We're going to make money great again in 2016!

This is a very good attitude and one that rings kind and true!

The most profitable coins will become those that are out now of favor, priced as dead - yet have eager hard-working people organizing and building behind the scenes. Find coins that meet these conditions and your chances will be favorable.
