Hi, Uray! I'd be glad to help give away more. As of right now, I've given out 2000 BURST, with 8000 remaining. Whatever you donate, I'll increase the giveaway, retroactively increase what I've given away, and keep going until it's gone. My personal account is BURST-3P8K-87LJ-UFYQ-H9EUE

Thanks!

(OK. I read the "giveaways are not allowed" thread and understand the reasoning behind it. Reposting appropriately. Please do not reply in this thread! PM me here or reply to the reddit thread ONLY! Replying here could get this thread locked. Thanks!)

I'm giving away BURST! As of right now, there's 9100 BURST still available.

As we all know, there are many cryptocurrencies out there. It's difficult to find the ones which offer something interesting, useful, or game changing. Well, I think I found one, and I want to personally promote it.

Burstcoin is the first proof-of-capacity (POC) coin. What is POC? Basically, it uses hard drive space as mining power. You write chunks of data called "plots" to your drive which are then used during mining. This consumes much less power than proof-of-work coins like Bitcoin or Litecoin. You can probably think of a plot like a lottery ticket; the more tickets you have, the better your chances to win. Burstcoin's infrastructure (e.g. wallet, network, etc.) is based on NXT, the #6 cryptocurrency by market cap ( http://coinmarketcap.com/ ). This gives it many useful features like a built-in asset exchange, simple messaging, named accounts, and many others. Burstcoin was not pre-mined (unlike NXT, which was fully pre-mined).

Who am I? I work in the cryptocurrency space; I'm currently working at a large Bitcoin mining operation, and I'm a day trader of cryptos. I like the ideas of cryptocurrencies and the possibilities of the blockchain. I'm a Bitcoin proponent. I believe that there can be multiple successful cryptocurrencies. And I've been intrigued enough by Burstcoin that I'm starting a hosted mining service for it: http://burst.farm

If you're new to Burstcoin, be one of the first 100 people to reply to PM me here on bitcointalk or reply to the reddit post (n.b. DON'T reply to this bitcointalk thread!) and I'll send you 100 BURST. If you need a free wallet access portal, go to http://burst.farm:8125 (unlike coins like Bitcoin, this does not host your funds; the passphrase is just a key into the BURST blockchain and you can access your funds from any access portal, on your machine or elsewhere). Enter a passphrase or let it generate one for you (and SAVE IT! This is the only way to get into your BURST wallet). Paste your new BURST-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXX address in your reply here. Then, to fully activate your account, spend 1 BURST (the easiest way is to set your account name, which costs 1 BURST).

Welcome to Burst!

Ah. I didn't know that. Post deleted. Oh well. zyronx, go ahead and delete your post, too, so the quoted portion goes away.

Mine SHA256 altcoins, not for profit but because you like their ideas and you want to support their network. Once I have an SHA256 mining operation set up, I plan on dedicating some of my hashrate to Mazacoin because I think it's a great idea and I want to support them.

(P.S. If you just want to dump hardware, I'll take it and promise to only hash MZC with it. )

The University of Nicosia, Cyprus, has an online MSc in Cryptocurrencies. The first course is free.

I would like to request the Mazacoin market on Cryptsy be added (MZC/BTC).

Thank you for an AMAZING site!!! 

As a new miner who is thinking of buying an S1 off eBay, I'd love it! But I'm in the US.     

Thank you for being a good community member, though, and passing along something that someone else can use for learning.
