I'm holding a little but more is always better.

Can't wait to see this take off, which I think it will.

Ah, shame to hear. FTR, the cheapest HASH has gone for, on some no volume exchanges, is 0.0001 which is what you ask for per BTC vote so 2.5K is 2500 votes technically. Just needs to hit a larger exchange first

edit: I see on the votes page that appcoin won the last round but isn't listed. What happened?

Just contacted virtualdn who runs coinok.pw about maybe having a go at a faucet. We'll see what he says but I'd bet he's willing to give it a go.

edit: I guess not. Forgot that he's been getting a lot of requests recently so it's down to a twitter request to add to votes list. then BTC voting -- http://coinok.pw/vote/

Would need 0.03 btc to beat the current leader

virtualdn, any chance you want to have a go at a hashcoin faucet? I think the bounty is 2.5K hash

hashcoin - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=560955.0

The dev has an alternate, temporary account, if you'd like to get in contact with him. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=310361

Exchanges are odd... mintpal might be a bit of a dead end this early on. Coins that get listed there either have a lot of BTC thrown at the votes, paid votes from "giveaways", or just get added cause of the volume.

Poloniex on the other hand is kind of fussy about what gets added and there definitely seems to be a right way and a wrong way about getting listed there, just haven't figured out what the rights and wrongs are yet.

Funny old game this is...

Ah, same old strategies... we all know who's behind this.

I wonder if there's a mod in the "operation".

I just sent 1k btw, 500 for busoni and 500 for a poloniex giveaway, or if there is no poloniex giveaway, the whole 1k to busoni when he lists it.

edit: anyone else feeling generous? if you got in early you know you can afford it

Is that giveaway and poloniex bounty combine-able, as in, 2.5k goes to busoni from poloniex personally and 2.5k gets given for a giveaway on poloniex?
Or should all or most of the giveaway be done separate from poloniex?

carsenk, if I want to add to bounties is HAhEtgzVECJoCFVWArhxa4xHFKezEK8YXT the right address? I'll add 1k, 500 each towards poloniex listing and poliniex giveaway, or just 1k towards poloniex listing if there's to be no poloniex giveaway.

bittrex might be worth a go, otherwise, I was thinking, could the 10,000 bounty for a faucet somehow not be redirected for a poloniex giveaway. At least partly maybe?

Poloniex benefits from the giveaway due to more fresh faces showing up for some free (especially if it's a lot of coin with smallish amounts per user), meanwhile coins still get spread around like with a faucet. The promise of a large giveaway plus a bounty for listing may just get busoni that little bit more interesting in listing this.

I'd maybe throw in 1k, or at least a few hundred, for a poloniex specific exchange bounty to be given to busoni if say, at least half that faucet bounty was redirected into a poloniex giveaway.

The premine was fairly distributed if I understand things correctly.

So unlike blackcoin which was essentially distributed proportionate to the hashrate of the miners hardware, this was distributed equally among those that got in during the initial distribution.

I think he's joking, from his link..

Poloniex would be great. I'll add another request to busoni next time I see him in the trollbox

+1

Heh, did you get this crap with CGA too? just wondering cause these trolls seem to be all over every other ANN these days

Anyway, think we should do as gpuminer suggested. Replying doesn't help, so ignore may work better.

Off topic but I think it's odd/funny that the mods here ban devs, lock their threads, etc (like with community coin) but let trolls like these continue damaging the community (and yes, I happen to think endless new coins also do damage, but this at least has some "innovation" even if that's only a collection of features from different coins). At least it's not coingen with just the name and images changed.

So, solo mining is no longer feasible for me. Time to join an mpos pool.

Scam trolls, what a surprise...

At least you can check the coin history of this dev, even if only partial.

You think all these other coins being launched by new "somecoin" accounts don't have a history of coin development? Or do you think not being able to see that history makes them more suitable as a developer for the one new coin you do support? if at all you do support anything new

This guy must obviously have learnt from previous mistakes. Will this be his last coin? Will this coin fail? No answers obviously, just speculation for now, like with any other new coin.

Using his public history of coin development as proof of a scam is just weak

Simple, hashrate went up, so difficulty went up, so block reward went down.

With this coin the block reward is linked to difficulty and therefore hashrate.

I've got to agree on the stability. After so many failed launches it's nice to such a stable launch... the ninja thing did it I guess, just hopefully there's no ninja downsides (not enough people notice).

Maybe I'm being paranoid but the fact solo mining is still viable for me makes me think this is slipping a little too low under the radar.

Yeah, thanks for the details (tho I did notice them in the OP)... and I think I just understood why Manswe "can not believe this". It's the CGA style block reward/difficulty thing. So 500 seems like a hell of a lot now as a percentage of coin supply, but that's only cause of the low diff...

...if I understand things correctly

edit: down to 153 per block, right?

For me, started at 500, went to 277, now back at 500 (found a block 30 seconds ago)

Hope I'm not forked

Thanks, that helped a lot

Agreed. Shame it too me so long to get around to it. I'd probably have tens of thousands rather than the shameful 6155 I have

I'm getting a lot show up and vanish, what's the reason for that? (first time successfully solo mining so excuse the stupidity)

An yeah, at this point an MPOS pool would be handy for me too

edit: and I'm getting crazy high rejects through sph-sgminer solo... any pointers?

I tried mining this launch and boy was it hard, hopefully what scraps I did manage to mine payback miner time.
