Oh boy.  I have been heads down on some things, and look at the thread :-)

You guys have to realize that it is just me, a one man team behind this coin right now.  I am the brains and the dev, but I also need cash flow to live.  I was full time on crypto stuff for a bit, but its not panning out as well as I would have hoped, so I need to focus my time occasionally on making real money to pay for normal life things ;-)

No, I am not manic-depressive   I am just busy, and lately I have been doing some paid services for others to generate some revenue.

At one point in time, we had a group of people focused on marketing/graphics/etc. but even then we were unable to really rally folks to contribute.  So, it falls on me to do, which is fine but as a result the time lines start to draw out.  That does not mean that it is abandoned, it simply means that you have one resource filling 5 or 6 roles.  We have this thread, as well as the particle forum, social media etc.  The community could take advantage of those resources to promote the coin, build services around it, build media and videos, roadmap the direction the community would like to see the coin go in, etc.

I have a few more big ideas for the "PRTX" (or whatever name we go with) PoS coin, a few things that nobody has thought of doing yet, but I am sitting on it because I have noticed a few other coins are trying to do a few things that we are planning to do (like retail PoS interfaces).  For me my long term goal would be to be able to earn fees on services around Particle, just like building up a portfolio of cash-flowing rental properties etc.  So my time horizon for building this stretches out over the course of a year, not short term news for pumps and hype.  So that is where I am at.  I have been heads down on some things, and I have been testing "new-coin" whether we go with ParticleX or some other branding.  Particle2?

What I will commit to is to try to do weekly updates in the way that the PeerCoin team does.

Who at here now all are prts fans and moons fans.so we can not bite each other.the best way we can do is asking moon come out and to say something.prt die or not die  all are dependent on moon.so moon please come out to say die or not die.like a man.not a child or a woman.we are waiting for you.

Did i read that right?
20% premine?


30 Billion max coins,
6 Billion premine...

Did you accidentally add too many zero's on to that number?

And is this even a relaunch or just a rebranding?
Are you starting over from block 1?

Doesn't look like it.

This whole thing is shady as fuck.

The Bank Note multipool that we are operating for this coin at http://multipool.banknotecrypto.com did its first round of payouts today.  We are still waiting for a deposit on one coin that was being mined so there will be a little more coming out for those on the Scrypt port.

The multipool will be a lot more effective with more hashpower, at the moment all ports have a modest amount of hash running on them, which of course makes it more challenging to hit blocks and optimize profitability.

We have decided to run a promotion for the next week through Sunday June 8th at midnight GMT.  There is 300M BN up for grabs in the bonus pool if the following hashrate targets are met and sustained between now and 6/8 12:00AM GMT:

Scrypt:	2 Gh/s	+100M BN distributed to miners
X11:	1 Gh/s	+100M BN distributed to miners
SHA:	3 Th/s	+100M BN distributed to miners

The additional 300M will be distributed proportionally based on your submitted valid shares.

Yes... I am standing up our own Abe at chaincollider.bitparticle.com but still configuring, so forum is down until I am done...loading blockchain uses lot of resources/cpu.  Then we won't have to worry about coinmarketcap.com going down anymore.

I agree

Agree.

As the give away is just around the corner, i can not change it to a competition, however it is a great idea! I may have to have a competition in the near future!
