Greeting people of Bitcoin and cryptos. Its 10 years passed and yet this coin is still alive. I am the one who launched it with name betcoindev, as a play and experiment and I am the one who abandoned it as a continue of this experiment. Why? Because of multiple reasons: personal, my own beliefs, proof of non need of me here, proof that proof of work and original satoshi vision is decentralized enough to not rely on any single person or entity. And honestly I am amazed. I was able to build binary and sync with one of nodes provided in this topic yesterday. I have no idea where is my old Betacoin wallet but I think I will be able to recover it from one of old disks, stopped mining it at around 2014, but I see some continued and I see it had some good and bad days during its 10y+ life.
I am here to ask - should we continue the show and make it really "better" form of money/cash? Because I see few very strong points here for successful rise of our bet phoenix.
1. Betacoin is based on original Bitcoin code and with original satoshi vision. (ETF is crap, corporations involved in BTC is crap, centralization of mining is crap, they hijacked Bitcoin) 2. Betacoin is one of oldest coins PoW coins around with 10y+ of history. 3. Betacoin has people who been mining it just because of original idea and beliefs, it is decentralized by ordinary miners and whole emission is yours. 4. Betacoin is truly decentralized because of Proof of Work, it has no premine and mined by enthusiastic people since start. 5. Betacoin has many media and social/crypto anchors and even was called as one of Bitcoin competitors by nasdaq article.
I actually see many strong points and ability to become something big in terms of adoption. Its main supply should be over now and we have original tale emission of 0.39% annual that make it very favorable form of crypto money and not completely deflationary, from monetary perspective that is actually very good for substance called "money". Betacoin is older than Ethereum, it is even older than DOGEcoin which I love and that also have tale emission but slightly higher.
What do you think? Should we revive it? I am up, but only with community support and will and I will need to grab some Betcoins OTC from those who mined it all those years, because I want to have stake of it and willing to pay some sane money for it. Cheers and Happy New Year!
P.S. If you are up, lets make some planning
