There are people always wanting to scam others. It isn't a bad idea to be careful of new programs especially when some people have lots of worth in cryptocurrencies.

Exactly why I am mining it on a spare computer with a clean windows install I won't care to wipe later.

Is there a post number you must be to post in this part of the forums? It could have been him not planning ahead and doing that so he can post.

I have mined a block so it is a real coin. I suggest people use a VPS, spare computer, or spare harddrive until he get a clearer picture on this.

Could just be a stupid dev launching it.

Quark wasn't premined. Mining was public from the start.

Has anyone checked this for viruses ?

Yeah this is a Quark clone for sure.

Considering all this accounts past posts are single smiley faces in the Chinese section someone needs to go through this carefully.

Sounds like something someone would do if they planned to post a virus and didn't wan't people to not download due to first post.

Maybe he tried to scam them with multiple credits and they charged him on all cards when they caught him?

Sony isn't going to put this on their store, ever.

Maybe if someone could somehow make it run through a HTML5 page on a browser maybe.

Xbox One is supposed to eventually make every console a dev console where you can create and test your own games. I don't remember if the PS4 is also doing that but if so a open source miner that could run on that may in fact be possible.

Either way I expect Sony would change their TOS so that voids the warranty if it doesn't already somehow.

If the speed is anywhere decent though having a PS4 miner would get a coin some mining attention from people who normally can't mine.

Hope I'm not too late. Thank you!

Time to buy more if you have the BTC.

The site URL: http://quarkspend.com/

Brand new site so think it would be good to discuss the idea and share any experiences that any users here have with it.

Good to know quickly if it turns scam or not.

No but it could definitely start a panic sell depending on how many it was holding.

How much did they get? If a lot those people cashing out would explain the drop in price earlier.

All references to "Quarkcoin" are going to be replaced with "Quark" so he wants "Quarkcoin" to be replaced with "Quark" on coinmarketcap.

Lets hope the owner of the site puts it back soon.

Block Explorer went down.

While I can when people are looking at coinmarketcap Quark isn't even listed. I get the feeling tomorrow after this dip could bring lots of interest in other coins.

I hate that Quark isn't on market cap right how while bitcoin is crashing. Such a missed opportunity.

That is because the block explorer went down.

Someone posted this though: http://explorer.andarazoroflove.org/quark/block_crawler.php

This mean we can get back on coinmarketcap? With bitcoin having a minicrash people will be looking for other currencies.

No idea but getting quark back on that list would help raise the price and stabilize it higher, maybe even get it on more exchanges.

Quark is no longer listed: http://coinmarketcap.com/

Probably because they couldn't update the coin.
