[FiiNALiZE]

So the only "great" feature and innovation is the addition of including a transaction comment?

[Pmalek]

 LOL... Good luck! You gonna need it!

[Remember remember the 5th of November]

Wow, I can totally see someone making the blockchain of this coin even bigger than Bitcoin's.

Also, no pre-announcement.

[iANDROID]

I can't get CGMiner to work 

[testz]

If you have problems with connection to network, add flowing line into florincoin.conf

[ANN] Florin coin (FLO) - Innovative new coin

What kind of innovation it has?
Only transaction comments?

[MaGNeT]

Wow, I can totally see someone making the blockchain of this coin even bigger than Bitcoin's.

Also, no pre-announcement.

Yup, mining a few blocks too, just to test out if I can fill the blockchain with messages
I'll start with the Bible, split up in 140 character blocks.

This coin is going nowhere soon, unless Skyangel has implemented something against spamming

[shakezula]

Thank you for posting source. You're right, this is innovative, hope it works for you and hope I can figure out how to clone it in a future coin!

[MaGNeT]

I can think of a better name:

TwitterCoin
Spamcoin
Ubersize Blockchain Coin

Introducing Florin coin (FLO)

Since there is no pre-mine, donations for bounties and development are welcome:
FLO FDKCVESdX4svGA3apRzXtwydUaY6L3heSu

I'll use this address to test my "send Bible as blockchain spam".

[baritus]

I'm interested in seeing how the blockchain handles those messages.

[solracx]

"Transaction comments are currently limited to 140 characters. "

Definitely more innovative than FTC or CHN.  Congratulations!

Excellent choice on the number of characters 140... same as twitter!

Lots of potential uses.

I may just consider adding this feature to ZenithCoin.
