I think this would be a good thread to answer some questions about BQC, as I can't find any info about it online or on bbqcoin.org
What is the reward per block?
How fast are blocks mined?
How many BQC has been mined so far?
a lot of that is on the forum sticky: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=134179.0Answers: 42! 1 block per minute Difficulty retarget every 60 blocks ~15M BBQCoins COULD exist, no telling how many were lost in the initial release. IIRC there is NO coin limit, this is a fixed supply velocity cryptocurrency (meaning coins are always created at the same rate) which will result in an inflation rate that approaches 0% over time. ~22M coins are mined each year, which means you will have to buy/mine 220K/year to Winklevii it. |

* Unable to use offline
* Not able to print your own Bitcash and keep in wallet
* scrybe checks real-world wallet, contains 14 paper bitcoins with 1.92 BTC in total value, shakes head I LOVE paper bitcoins, no reason why altcoins are any different. Consistent VALUE is a different thing, but I keep a few blank that I can top up with my phone if I'm not truely offline, otherwise there is this invention called "change." Rest of the list is pretty valid whining though, I'll add: Bad for the Environment Going to destroy bitcoin Will NEVER get used WILL get used I think the new-alt value will be a junk-bond or penny stock BS market for a long time, but like everything we will hit "peak clone" at some point and the chances of lasting value for new (and many existing alts) will be doomed once there start being "traditional" uses for a coin. (maybe BBQCoin will be the coin of choice for buying BBQ at international cooking contest festivals!) TLDR; Most arguments get hyperbolic, but I'm sure it will be a mess, with winners and losers. Just like any healthy market. Tangent: The above idea of using an altcoin for cooking contest events is an interesting thought experiment, you could buy coins at any time in anticipation of events, but market prices would move based on demand related to major events in such a way that could allow direct comparisons of popularity. Day of event you could sell at ticket booths with a fixed exchange rate (maybe have a parallel buy-out rate/market?) It should also be possible to embed voting/rating into the purchase process, using an address per contestant/item mechanism. Even formal judging could be included in the blockchain by giving each judge a chunk of the prize money to award as ratings from a per-category pool. PM me if you want to run with this in some way, I'd love to help make it happen. |

You have to read MY thread for some context, these are BBQCoins bought from CaptChadd at auction  so he is my wholesaler Thanks for helping set right any others I was confusing with that. |

Requires centralized controls including a go-button for Bernake, and a stop-button for congress.
Block rewards are completely unpredictable unless you are a major bank in which case you get a steady diet of FiatUSDCoin which trades on par with the USDCoin used for central bank deposits.
This was a joke originally, but it actually might work*, fun thought experiment.
*Assuming it is implemented by a competent government which may disqualify the scenario due to excessive oxymoronism.

bNxNXt5SDJ8ST1Y8p1imaRJi5aByK1m3gw Because BBQ coins are a comical twist on bitcoin, I think more people will accept them rather than those new ripoff spamcoins that are trying to be taken seriously. Cough, feathercoin, cough  Imagine what would happen to the btc-e trollbox if they started supporting BQC  I guess we have our own Jim Gaffigan... I'll accept it, but MAN, you guys need some better jokes! I didn't know we were telling jokes, I was serious. I just read 'Giveaway' in the title and posted Bah, I should have disallowed it for not reading instructions... I guess it was a joke on me |

2 customers served, order up! Winner of a creativity bonus! After traveling into the future, I can confidently state that after the great cryptocurrency crunch of 2015,
the only remaining coin to be used worldwide for any kind of serious commerce is BBQcoin.
As a result in 2016, world hunger becomes a thing of the past, and a lite version of the currency called VeganBBQcoin gains popularity.
In 2017 first contact is made and a BBQ pulled pork sandwich is offered to the alien visitors. As repayment, much advanced technology
is shared with humanity and the blockchain begins to be broadcast via the Intergalactic Pulsar Transmission Network Internet.
Total network hash rate is now over 1 Googolhashes/second.
The future is bright my friends, and slathered in that sweet sweet sauce.
