Sorry for the late inactivity, but we have been busy with work on our future announcement. Rest assured microCoin is still going. The current policy is that we will be keeping a somewhat low profile for a while and do more promotion for microCoin later after our future announcement. Consider this a good chance to get some easy microCoin.

Logo contest has finally ended! The new logo has been chosen and the winner will still be making some changes to the alternative logo, but the primary logo should be finished, website will be up soon:





I thought you said there would be a vote at the end of the competition to gauge interest?

It's a shame, because I thought some of the other designs were much more unique, pretty and usable for purposes of advertising and brand recognition.

Everytime I look at that one I read the word "CUP" for some reason.

my take is "keep it simple" so you don't scare people away, this isn't supposed to be used by crypto geeks only. and don't try to copy all the other coins, mrc is supposed to stand out





That's a nice looking currency symbol, good job

Crycurex.
I sold 10 MRC and I have 3.3E-7 bitcoins on my balance.
Looks there is some problem maybe with small amouns.
I dont want to test larger one  Shocked

I've had that happen with small amounts on other exchanges as well the balance shows normally once you have a bit more.
I see. I make 500MRC trade.
BTC balance is now 2.033E-5
How much I need to sell so I will see correct BTC balance?

It just means you shift the decimal point 5 places to the left, i.e 0.00002033

Here is another color variation of the logo



I think I like this colour better but maybe it makes it look a bit too similar to bitcoin colours?

I am interested Smiley

I have no idea what's going on at the moment but I certainly like it!

Everyone was thinking the price was going to go way down and then instead it doubled :O

It's most likely from one of the multipools.

It's pretty impressive seeing a network hashrate of 11.01 GH/s at the moment and a difficulty of 150.

Be honest , i think EAC has a fatal design problem.

I disagree... after 2-3 years, when rewards have halved a couple times, it will be a needed infusion of coins. I think it is a smart, unique aspect to this coin.

If EAC could survive 2-3 years.  I like the work done by DEV team and most of the features of EAC. but you have to admit, at this stage, 5x is a disadvantage for EAC compare to other new born coin.  Maybe that's the reason why the price drop from 800 to 95.
As a investor, i have many choice. EAC is a good coin , but far from the best. I can easily name 3 coins have more investment value than EAC.

without 5x, consider the efforts that we have done, EAC should already  be succese.   5x just not in favor of investors.

We haven't even had the first 5x day yet (besides launch day), can we wait and see how it actually goes before we yell that the sky is falling?

I donated 150K MRC a few days ago to the dev to hopefully use for giveaways. I think some nice big giveaways will help spread the word and grow some interest.

We'll definitely want to wait till after the logo contest though so that we can have a QT with the new picture and a nice big picture in the giveaway thread for people too see how nice it looks.

Then we can call it Version 1.1 of the client and people will see / think there's some good ongoing development which will help drive interest further Wink

I like that one, great job unique9.

That's one of the only entries that includes a unique currency symbol that could be used for microcoin and that will be a very important thing if it's to grow

That's good to hear MCR, I think after the new branding is ready this coin has the chance to capture many people's attention so I'm very glad you guys will be making the most of it with strong marketing.

Are you able to comment on the nFactor issues being discussed above?

Why are people saying there's no development? What makes you think that?

github

What exactly do you think needs to be added / removed / improved in the Earthcoin code?

I thought you were talking about related development like mobile wallets, merchants etc which Earthcoin has a fair amount of in the works.

Would changes to the codebase improve the value of the coin?
14  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] microCoin MRC - Scrypt-Jane - nFactor - BOUNTIES - No Premine on: January 20, 2014, 08:56:39 AM
I don't think the dev anticipated that the nfactor would be scaling back gpu hashing power so fast we already droped 50%-60% and we're not even close to block 300k. I thought it was going to progressively slow down till we hit block 300k but are hashing power is dropping exponentially fast considering what block we're on

Well the code can be seen here: https://github.com/microcoinsource/microcoin/blob/master/src/main.cpp in the function GetNfactor() but once it gets to bitwise shifting I no longer have any idea what's going on so I can't really tell you when it'll reach the maximum nFactor, but it doesn't seem to have anything to do with any particular block.

Like I said though, I can't really follow through the logic of that function, so if anyone can, please provide some sort of idea of when it'll reach maximum nFactor.

Sounds exactly like what I reported earlier:

Looks like my rig with two 280X GPUs no longer works on this (its getting about 70 Kh/s). Would it be because the system doesn't have enough RAM?

I'm running a single 280X on my regular PC which has 6GB of RAM and that one's doing 1.8 Mh/s

Kinda makes it impossible to GPU mine it then with rigs set up to be able to mine scrypt coins. If other people are also getting this, I'd propose that we should step the nfactor back one level and keep it that way (would require a code change and advance notice though).

I don't think it'd fork the chain though since the rewards and target time would be identical, you'd just need to update to get the correct hashing power. Could anyone confirm this for me?

Really? I have 300.000 EAC. Am I rich now?

No, not really. 300,000 EAC is currently worth about $295 USD

holy crap my hash just dropped... does anyone know around what block GPU mining will no longer be feasible?

GPU mining will always be feasible, it's just getting brought in line with CPU mining. Seems like a bit of a shame to me because adding more GPUs is a much more costly / involved process than adding CPUs (in terms of finding computers with existing usable hardware, let alone botnets).

After the latest drop, GPU is still far better, but if it keeps dropping more (I have no idea how much further it has to go) then that could end up in a weird place.

This looks fantastic!

Probably my favourite one so far.

Thanks! Just to add some fun fact, I have combined the two symbols in one logo:



I didn't even realise that, very clever!
