Glad you at least thinking your coin out take your time it will be better off once all the crap dies off.
Agreed, the flood of clones with nothing new to offer is a bit unsettling.
So it will be still a test coin or the final coin then?
The concept has not changed, the coin will still be considered a "test" coin in beta. I could just release it as is, but I would prefer to launch the coin with all the features I have mentioned as part of the initial launch rather than releasing half finished code with partially working features.
Another part of the delay is that I would like to have some time to test the code and test the features to see if they can be exploited. Before release I would like to be certain that people can't just give themselves a 100% chance to get a block with increased reward and test to make sure that the code for allowing mining at decreased difficulty when "x" amount of time has passed since the last block found.
But by far, the most time-consuming part is trying to work out the hashrate limitation based on a ratio of difficulty and current network hashrate as compared to each client's current hashrate.
We are also working on adding a few other undisclosed features which we will announce closer to the launch date (once we have tested their feasibility).
I am glad to hear you won't rush a half baked product out the door like elecoin did. Take your time to make it a good one. Besides, as others have mentioned, the recent flood of copy-paste half baked clones had sort-of made now a rather bad time to release a coin. Though I have doubts that in a few weeks or whatever it will be any different from now.
We appreciate your support!
I doubt the clone flood will have stopped in a few weeks but hopefully we can bring some real change to the table and inspire others to do the same.
Okay, no worries. I wish you good luck!
If there is anything an experienced iOS-programmer could do for the project, lemme know. =)
Cheers!
Hmmm, a mobile client at launch time... Interesting idea, I will be messaging you in a bit for sure =)
This Coin gets more and more potential in my eyes. A dedicated developer is worth A LOT
I think people should use UTC for times. GMT confuses people, especially people from UK who think they are at the center of the world.
This is why I was trying to use server time as it is a time that is common to all of us here on the forums. I think I will go back to server time.
