Quark Coin does NOT pass my smell test. As an instance, it has an OWNED web site. Hunt for litecoin, or bitcoin, and you get a bunch of p2p, opensource, and dot org sites. All of the code is available....when one hunts/searchs for quarkcoin, you get this central site that offers everything about the coin, but delivers no p2p info, nor real code nor deep-readable material. Plus the site itself is owned in a dot com sense, and thus this shows me that the quark coin is NOT an actual p2p issuance. So, absent a community behind and developing for quarkcoin, it is a 'central point' operation, and thus, in the new parlance of 'fintech', is a fraud. It is NOT peer to peer in my research, but rather is centrally hosted.....not a good sign. Buyer be damn wary of pump&dump here in crytocurrency land...

and as a fringe linguist, i can also weigh in that the language on the quark site does NOT support a genuine peer 2 peer cryptocurrency. See for yourself the differences between quarkcoins' site, and either/both bitcoin/litecoin dot orgs. (clif 12/15/2013).

it costs about $18 a year to hire a .com address so your analogy doesn't pass the think test

im really sick of people like you, find something too do, build models cars, learn yoga, walk the dog...something, anything, just stop trying to prove quark is a pump and dump, a million ppl have already tried, and they all failed,because, it's not.........

I'm quark holder. Really worried about this coin. Thanks for the input guys.

well im just sick of the shit to be honest, sorry if i hurt your feeling's but your accusations are based on suspicions and not facts, and there have been so many people spreading bullshit the last few weeks, all it does is hurt the community

[hasar]

Best thing to do is always withdraw funds from exchange. I don't trust exchange sites. I just buy there and withdraw quickly.

Bill Still on Keiser Report talking about Quark


http://rt.com/shows/keiser-report/episode-538-max-keiser-443/

[automake]

Hey guys,

What is going on with Bter? Is it normal that they are updating servers this long. I have some coins there so I am worried.

try  cn.bter.com

[Simpy12]

Keiser Report!
Quark starts @ 20min.
http://rt.com/shows/keiser-report/episode-538-max-keiser-443/

What we see is Litecoin#2, it's moon time Time to spread the news guys.

[JuanHungLo]

I just finished watching the second half of the Keiser Report.  My impression is that Bill Still did a decent job explaining what Quark is and why it is better than most other cryptocurrencies.  Keiser did not seem to take a position either way.  In other words, while it is news, and it is a means of exposure for Quark, it is also nothing new for this community.  Let's hope that some new blood flows into QRK today.

Where can we find out how the network hash rate of Quark coins stacks up against other cryptos?
I see the market cap is at a nice level but to be fair there are a lot of quarks out there, and so I wonder how well the network is being supported and not just coins being held.

Appreciated, holding long btw just a concerned holder,

You can't compare hashrate between different algorithms, as the different hashing-functions take wildly different times to compute.

Since there's only 2-3 coins with the same PoW algorithm as Quark and none of those has a big following, you can't really make a comparison of Quark hashrate versus, say, Litecoin.

Yeah... I always wondered why it is not listed @ coinchoose.com   

Coinchoose only lists SHA-256 and scrypt coins.  Coins with other algorithms, such as YAC, PTS, QRK, Primecoin, aren't listed, because if you paid for a Radeon graphics card, coinchoose helps you to find the best coin to mine with your graphics card.  These other algorithms are more cpu specific.

Kaiser actually asked Bill Still about Quark, and mentions it next to Bitcoin and Litecoin.  I'm wondering, how many viewers does the Kaiser report have?  I only heard about it through QRK, myself.

RT has 450 million viewers.

Thanks for the replies guys - all of them.
Even though Quark is a combination of algorithms, can't we still compare some available figures, like number of nodes, miners, Gh/s, etc?
There must be a way of fairly comparing these coins, at least within reason. Promethium listed Gh/S in that chart and I wonder if that if a fair measure?
Quark doesn't look bad there, but of course needs a stronger network, or rather more people involved in the network.

Very important question that I originally asked. I imagine Quark can't yet have the network presence that its market cap suggests, just due to how long it's been around - but prove me wrong, please.

Thanks again,
IAS
