I believe it is dead. The team never comes around here anymore. Guess the skeptics were right, scam coin.

Too much coin supply, value will be shit

Although our total supply is 1 Trillion TRTL, each TRTL is only divisible to 2 decimal places. In terms of atomic units, we actually have significantly less total supply than Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, IOTA...

Quote
TRTL — 100,000,000,000,000 Shells
BTC ~ 2,100,000,000,000,000 Satoshis
IOTA — 2,779,530,283,277,761 IOTA
LTC — 8,400,000,000,000,000 Photons
ETH — 97,879,990,190,000,000,000,000,000 Wei

Read more about the TurtleCoin supply and the motivations behind the 2 decimal places here:
https://medium.com/@turtlecoin/one-trillion-turtles-coin-supply-and-unit-economics-5bfbea0aa1f1

You are right, however most people aren't good at math. They see that many zeroes before the decimal and they think the supply is more. So unfortunately this coin is screwed, you can see it right now. Daily 26 million coins are mined and sold. To much supply, similar to when there was to much beef during Reagans presidency. They had to push cows in lakes to keep the market from crashing. A basic college economics class would have pointed out this problem before it happened. Although it is too late for this coin, throwing them away won't save it. The market has already crashed and with any first impression, this coin now has a bad one.

However as the lead dev said, he isn't good with math. So he wouldn't have seen this coming. Then there is the problem with him being a developer but bad at math. Aren't algorithms a computational proof? Computers are all about computation, mathematics. He is the lead dev and doesn't like math? lol

Is this coin actually just a troll coin? or an MIT social economic experiment on the overabundance of supply vs demand?

all very nice, the “small problem” is that was premined 2 months in advance lol

Wasn't premined because the lead dev announced it to his group of friends. You can see that the GoonSquad began mining as soon as it was announced on the obscure 4chan, of all places.

I'm looking forward to CCP's next article about GoonSquad stealing millions of USD through their elaborate crypto ruse. The value of this coin can be clearly seen through there lack of whitepaper and vision. Meme coins are the it thing though right? Reason be damned, all in on the sinking ship! Can it hit 1 Sat today?

100k blocks was been mined before launch?Huh? Dev, are you want sell all premined coins for masternodes? Are you crazy?

It wasnt premine and it wasnt devs.... it was miners that found the coin before official BTCT launch... can you read???

It was devs, you can read there discord. They mined it before the ann and they admit to it. I posted comments from their discord.

I just scrolled to the beginning of their discord.  It kind of seems like they were testing and then it got released on 4chan and then it kind of spiraled out of the control from there.  There were like 2 guys that came in and were kind of surprised they were mining on the mainnet.  By the time the first discord users came in and started mining they were already at like blockchain height like 30,000.

What is the problem with pre-mining anyway?


It's the principle of the situation. They won't explain their professional reasoning behind not resetting the fork. There response is "it happened".

Just announced, soon you can mine Turtles on your Xbox one, just a little less than 1 kh/s. Will have an app in the store.

 

Two programmers said they were working on it. When I asked for a timeline, they ignored it and changed the subject. The app is wishful thinking at the moment. When you hype things that aren't real and are likely too fail, you are spreading fear uncertainty and doubt on the project. It'd be better to focus on things that the project actually has going for it.

Have these dev's developed an xbox app before? What applications? They didn't want to talk about any concrete things, they focused on the possibilities "if" they could get it to work and "if" they can get the app published.

Hi,
155k blocks mined starting form 19 dec last year.
Why did you made the ann here so late?

If there are already 155K blocks who has been mining this ? I thought the ANN said there was no pre-mine, anyway I don't mind, I like Cryptonight coins.
Is there a list of pools available and which exchanges is it on - please not Yobit.

There are a list of pools on the website turtlecoin.lol . There wasn't a pre-mine, this is just the first time was announced on this forum.

ANN = tomorrow = lambo?
yo - Last Sunday at 5:32 PM
I'm just trying to give some constructive criticism
ANN is what makes your coin go down in history
website/logo everything else can be updated later
neithender - Last Sunday at 5:32 PM

What site is that screenshot from?

Joko - Last Sunday at 12:44 PM
there's a developer fee @lajot
currently 1/10 of the blockreward goes to the dev team

You all had a dev fee during the premine. You need to clear this up in your announcement.

delasteve - Last Sunday at 2:09 AM
We don't have a specific time for the ANN, but it will be Monday. We are currently working on putting the finishing touches for the website facelift, a new logo (this one is public domain), and other things

Black - Last Saturday at 11:39 PM
Yeah I guess only deep deep people found this discord or poeple with friends

Joko - Last Friday at 6:47 PM
i think detroit put up the 300gh/s order on nicehash yesterday

badstars - Today at 6:51 AM
@zerain you said "It was leaked last monday". That's the 22nd. Mining started on the 19th. That's what makes me a bit uncomfy
CHRlS - MINERPOOL.NET - Today at 6:51 AM

Someone had to leak it right?
So that someone was here on the 19th before they leaked it on the 22nd
Joko - Today at 6:52 AM
^
zerain - Today at 6:52 AM
So they mined for a while to get as much as they wanted before they started to shill and leak it(edited)



Your devs are paying mad amount of money for premine. Thats why you won't reset. So just admit there was premine by your devs.

Black(one of the devs) Admits on Saturday you hadn't announced it yet. With no announcement, but people mining, that's a premine to the announcement.

It's not about that. They are misleading, there was a premine. Just take the part off your annoucment that says no premine.
11  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Akroma - Cryptocurrency. Smarter. (Smart Contracts. Masternodes. Oracles.) on: January 30, 2018, 01:25:10 AM
There was a premine. You are misleading. Your developer team leaked the info to 4chan and allowed people to mine prior to this announcement. Here is a copy of my conversation with the team on discord.

Jgoure - Today at 7:16 PM
Yep they posted on bitcointalk today, making it seem like it just came out.
antek - Today at 5:54 PM
So coin was mined and announced on jan 22 on Eric Polerecky twitter
Imho creators mined themselfes
Smells like scam to me
masterkek - Today at 5:57 PM
what do i need to do to buy a full MN here?
Ryless - Today at 5:57 PM
5k AKA
Graal - Today at 6:04 PM
how many coins they mine before annoucment?
RM - Today at 6:07 PM
when you say they, you mean devs?
zerain - Today at 6:07 PM
There were people other than the creators here at launch due to it being leaked
People who found it out early started mining and since then the discord channel has only grown
From about 20 to 700 members right before the ann
reves - Today at 7:18 PM
@Jgoure The only reason mining was happening prior to the ANN is there was a 4chan leak ahead of when the devs expected to announce.
Jgoure - Today at 7:18 PM
Why won't you answer antek? how many coins were mined from Jan 22 to today?
vaneske - Today at 7:19 PM
4chan leak.  wtf
Jgoure - Today at 7:19 PM
Only the dev team knew. lol
That just looks bad on you guys even more.
vaneske - Today at 7:19 PM
indeed
reves - Today at 7:19 PM
Yes. Somebody posted the URL on 4chan which saw dozens of people hit the discord and figure out how to mine ahead of the teams expectations.
Jgoure - Today at 7:20 PM
That somebody fucked you guys.
reves - Today at 7:20 PM
Perhaps. But it is in no way related to the dev team.
Jgoure - Today at 7:20 PM
You have a bad rep now. You have a premine before annoucement.
You need to change your Announcement . it says no premine.
detroitpro - Today at 7:21 PM
@John_undeger - A little, the community that has been here has seen us working, shipping and communicating. We are going to continue doing that. We can't please everyone and if someone is not happy with the events; please please please do not support the project in any form.
reves - Today at 7:21 PM
A premine would imply the devs mined an amount of their own coin. This is simply untrue. A leak happened. The team dealt with it by getting the site and announcement ready as quickly as possible.
Jgoure - Today at 7:22 PM
The developer team, leaked.

What do you think will bring back up ITNS price?
13  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: If BTC drops below $1000 on: January 17, 2018, 05:45:16 PM
The possibility I don't see. But if it does happen, I will buy, buy and buy!

Same I will buy and turn off the miners.
14  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / If BTC drops below $1000 on: January 17, 2018, 04:45:42 PM
I crunched some numbers on the profit of GTX 1070, 1070ti and 1080 average hash rate at a price of $0.093 watt.

At each graphics cards average hash rate given the possibility of BTC dropping to $1000, the GTX 1080 and 1080ti are the only cards that will turn a profit at .093 cents per watt. They will return about $0.11 profit after the cost $0.29 to run.

A GTX 1080 cost $550+ that doesnt include the other hardware needed to run the GPU. That means it will take over 5000 days to get your ROI, return on investment.

TLDR: My hypothesis based on this observation is, if BTC drops below $1000 threshold Alt coin mining will become nothing more than a hobby and most Alt coin markets will die. Leaving mostly Proof of Stake Alt coins. These are interesting times.

Are they really that bad? Whattomine is saying they can make a little on Equihash.
