[MOON] Mooncoin 🌙 Proof-of-Work, launched in 2013

[polemarhos888]

hi all,

thanks for your patience.
finally got some spare time to sit down and work the remaining issues out; particularly with balloonhash.

however, the results are all positive.
balloonhash has been implemented and has been observed solving blocks (on a private chain) with relative ease.
the wallet, cpu miner and suitable stratum modules (nomp/unomp and stratum-mining) will be ready by the end of the week; however I will coordinate with exchanges prior to the hard-fork.

quick look at the cpuminer (~600H/s on a core2quad 2.66,
picture below is before a few big tweaks):


for the newcomers, in the following days i will put together a recap of all the features in the new wallet.
i thankyou all for your patience; i've got quite a bit going on in the background - including some awesome employment prospects (crypto-related) which will become public inevitably in the future.

we're garn to the moon soon,
baz

Good morning ! At last, Barry's positive news ! We wish more often  announcements from Barry of course. I think that the better days for Moon are close...

How hard will it be to pull the Mooncoin balance i have now, onto the new setup? or will it be a smooth, operation. (ie: install wallet, and move wallet.dat? i like this type, its easy)

Good morning ! I believe that Mooncoin will be a different cryptocurrency soon...

[cryptodoll]

Mooncoin to the Moo-Moo-Moon! I bought 1.5 million moon so I can say I am a millionaire! Well a millionaire in something, at least.

385 billion coins . . . And the amount was chosen because that is the amount of miles the earth is from the moon.

Is there a way to burn some (a lot) of these coins to make moon more scarce? Especially since the amount was based on a whim?

[giantkin]

I figured i would buy up alot, that way, they are not out there....

   so let me know if you dont want your moon, you can just send it to me to not have that many out there... (cough cough lolol)

There really aren't 385 billion mooncoin in circulation.

The explorer lists about 222 billion, of which 77 billion are blacklisted (unspendable), so 222 - 77 =  145 billion in current circulation.

And, at the current pace of mining it'll take over 15,000 years to reach the mooncoin's maximum circulation.

What is the unique selling point of Mooncoin?

[Mooncoin_Foundation]

What is the unique selling point of Mooncoin?

Mooncoin is unique, it has unique specifications and backed by common people.
It's not a company, so it doesn't have a product to sell.

Decentralised currencies are different from coins/tokens, backed by companies (which have centralised development and try to attract money).

If you ask about unique projects on top of Mooncoin blockchain, there are Moon Word and Smart Likes.
Moon Word is unique because you are in full control of recording onto blockchain, the process is simple, free, and you can do it without 3rd parties.

You can use MoonWord right now.

Smart Likes will be launched after the new Mooncoin release.

It looks like 99 % brand new coins usually want to attract money.
They try to get money via ICO, by announcing their project and their team with photos, by making an attractive website (usually with a template) and other typical steps which convince investors to give them money.
After that they enter big exchanges. No working solutions at all, they just promise them.
However, after receiving money via ICO, the founders become rich and have no good motivation to develop a coin, why developing a coin, if they should focus on spending money?
That's why very often you see no progress after ICO is finished.

Mooncoin is a completely different story.
It's decentralised, so it doesn't have any center which sells their tokens, made of thin air.
Anyone has equal opportunities and can get Mooncoins only from mining or buying them.
Mooncoin is interesting because it's better designed than Bitcoin (total supply, block time) - to become widely adopted.
Also it's not arrogant/corrupted and really it is backed by common people.
Common people run their projects on top of Mooncoin blockchain, and you get working solutions - usually for free.
You are welcome with your own project, and with more and more unique projects upcoming in the future, Mooncoin will become more and more interesting.

I couldn't agree with you more. The ICO phenomenon is just opening up financial abuse, and is not what true crypto is about. Sounds like mooncoin has the oldskool crypto blueprint which is no ICO, decentralized and mineable.

I think most ICOs fail because they get the money and lose incentive, as you stated above, why would they stick around to dev a coin once their pockets are lined? That would take strong moral standing, which I do not see in many of these cases.

That is why I stick to solid coins and don't mess around with the ICO scheme. Too many risks and pitfalls IMO.

Good afternoon. Mooncoin will be one of the best cryptos out there...

It’s probably mentioned here somewhere but out of interest, why are 77 billion coins frozen?

Frozen coins are coins which were stolen from cryptsy exchange. They are frozen so they cannot be sold by those black-hearted thief/thieves.

A mooncoin can soon surpass the dogecoin.
