I'm checking all the forum for this kind of coins , with low activity , but not already dead. like you say
I'll wait 1 day to see what replies and how many i get back after resurrecting this thread to evaluate the situation here.
The problem with Giftcoin is that it was too popular too fast and was launch before KGW was release... The difficulty lvl is too high for anyone to mine, takes about 2 days to get 1 block of Giftcoin right now
If you want an unknown coin with low difficulty and small community, Gabencoin is your coin of choice!
Only bad news after bad news on all the coins I check.
