http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RT_%28TV_network%29I fear 450 million might be a bit over the top, as only 630mil people can receive it and 75% of all possible receivers seems a tad high! Still great coverage though.

Just wow!! Quark on Keiser report was awesomeee!! Keiser really was enthousiastic about Quark and man Bill gave great answers. I see a bright future for Quark. One of the top coins for sure.

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, IAS
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. 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 As block reward drops to 1(Approximately 9 weeks away), Quarks hashrate will presumably also reduce. This will negate the need for an electricity hungry mining presence.

I'm all for Quark becoming a more known and solid Crypto, but I watched this Keiser report and to say Bill was giving great answers, when he said "I'm no expert here" like 3 times, is a bit overboard. He is on the show, he SHOULD be an expert HERE. See what I am getting at? We need some difficult questions answered honestly (like I asked the page before) and that will help us more than cheerleading from people (albeit with a big mouth and big following) over the long term. I'm not so concerned with the short term though it is nice to have more eyes, of course. We have some serious hope though as the Crypto space is really growing and I hope people (miners) and more nodes (e.g. me and hopefully you guys too) come in and support thisCrypto. Price is just one measure of success. IAS

This is a bit interesting. I still imagine we need lots of miners to secure the network. This is the strength when it comes time that we are attacked, and I imagine that is inevitable. Though we can look at electricity as being "wasted" I think that isn't the case. We are keeping a hopefully large and attack proof network up. If we don't have more miners every month (up to a reasonable future point), then we have problems. Look at BTC's network strength. That is partly why we see services being built ON TOP of it's blockchain. It is a secure space. Even if Quark only ever is "just" a currency, having a strong network is VERY important and a must. Thanks again for your answers, IAS

Thanks again for your answers, IAS You are absolutely correct about increasing node strength, Quarks block speed requires us to prepare sub 10 second propagation to all major nodes. This will require strategically dispersed high speed node placement.

Price is just one measure of success. IAS Well it depends on us as a community also. If you think you can come up with ideas or developments then bring it to the public. On the forums/reddit etc. Quark is coming strong showing his pros, it made it to RT even and from here we must help to make it gain more. If everyone just comments and makes suggestions like they know but does nothing than posting only, than it won't gain as much. We as a community need to start to do more and talk less

beautiful! loved the RT episode, only wish it was longer or addressed how people could buy bit coin and trade for quark. already recouped half the loss this week and the Americas havnt even woke up!

RT is fast becoming one of the worlds leading news outlets - they do this though many open systems - the http://rt.com/shows/keiser-report/episode-538-max-keiser-443/ < was awesome - Quark community come and show support on RT - lets not have this dud guy bashing Quark on a you tube with more comments than a super show like this ? you can sign in with G+ Twitter or FB to comment , let show RT how big the Community is.

I think what Quark needs is "low resource miner". Something that takes no more than ~20% of the CPU and can run on the background. If it could mine for some worthy cause (charity or something), even better.
I would not mind that, since it would not affect my gaming or anything. I would not even care about how much Quarks it would mine.
There would be people like me, who would keep it up just to ensure that transactions get made and network to be secure.

fuck that pile-of-shit criptsy. i've been trying to buy quarks for an hour already but somehow my account gets refunded all the time. now im getting these negative balance glitches. yesterday on my 2nd account was the same thing but somehow I was able to wirthdraw 2x coins than I have actually bought. now I have a negative balance in bitcoins and 0 in other currencies. but i wont use cryptsy again so they may go fuck themselves

this is a good idea - come post it on the forum - we have thought of a similar thing - + 1

I'm not as violent about it but i actually was able to buy at a very low price but get this - then my account was negative (btc) for 0.15xxx then i logged in again and now its Negative 1.05xxx btc - looks like i'm falling into BTC debt to Crytpsy somehow ! i'm not yelling about it (yet) and i have put in a support ticket also sent Bitjohn a PM - but it concerns me, put it that way - I want to know if they think i owe them this BTC or its an error ? if it is a legitimate error - then who owns the cost ? i can't withdraw any QRK until its fixed > ? ? ? ? So this hold up my whole account .

Kolin this happened to me but have you checked how many quarks you bought?
The dickheads double bought and now I have twice as much quark as I placed an order for and a negative balance of around 3btc.

so you think its is legit - and it is that it purchased more? well its not very awe inspiring confidence ? now i have to sell a BTC worth (all be it at a higher price ) or transfer from another acc ?
