Can somebody explain me why QRK does only know to dump? I'm loosing a lot of money (already 50% of all I had). I'd like to know what do you expect from QRK, because what I see is really sad.

Bear with us.

Is that what you're saying?

Hey they are doing their best alright, i'm following it closely. The whole market is like this, best is not to pay attention to prices, but build an infrastrcuture and the rest will come.

+1 and thanks Smiley.

No it wasn't a joke - we are actively working on a large marketing campaign.

No, nothing official on this cryptohunter. There's a bunch of infrastructure development going on though.

All the established alt coins (ie the ones from the first big wave last spring/summer) are taking a pounding right now but a few of the best seem to be getting hit the hardest (ie QRK and DGC). Considering the amount of positive things either going on currently the price of Quark right now is a bargain.

I messaged the developer on this to consider or at least something to make it more attractive. You should also send him a message. You can contact him here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=138988.

Maybe we could all send him a message then he might consider some things and we can discuss about it. You see Quark is already a pretty much established coin. If we can do something in it's code to make it more attractive it would definitely be good. It has the name, the logo, but it feels like something needs to be changed to really push it where it deserves to be.

Maybe people think that they had > 6 months to make it and they didn't, so it's time for others to try.

The community is large, and the coin is established... however it is fragmented.

We need more combined efforts. QRK is a great coin. Is the dev familiar with POS and is it really required or not?

Some people on reddit talked about this:

" My naive impression is that these are achieve opposite goals: PoS causes people to horde coins even more, since those holding them get rewarded for not spending them, whereas demurrage would punish people for not spending their coins.
Right now I don't think demurrage would help anything, the recent prolonged downtrend should cause big holders to decrease their holdings.
PoS would also be a bad idea, in my opinion, since the coin was released with the implicit agreement that there would be only .5% annual interest beyond the initial mining phase. Increasing this percentage, or switching to 0% mining reward and .5% annual PoS would most likely make a lot of people unhappy."

" Definitely in favor of this.
Although, I would prefer if we could have PoS instead of PoW combined with it. Instead of rewarding miners, if we reward everyone who is staking, it would still secure the network but be more appealing to a wider base of people (anyone with a computer)."

" No distribution problem as Quark is done distributing. Current coins would earn stake in this hypothetical.
Demurrage will destroy coins and under Freicoin, the coins destroyed are replaced through POW mining to roughly fix the supply.

" For my preferred coin, demurrage which punishes you for not spending, in combination with staking which benefits those for holding (and secures the network) would be great. The reason why I think it would be great for Quark is that it would hurt the big inactive wallets on two fronts. 1) the demurrage for not spending and 2) they probably aren't leaving their wallets open and won't receive staked coins."

The 3rd quote seems like a good idea what do you think? I will pm Max on this.

Why do you have a problem with miners being rewarded?(Quark must be the least rewarding coin to mine as it is!)
Freicoin is a failure, It is no fun watching your coins slowly disappear everytime you open your wallet!
You want people to spend? Create products and services for them to buy!
POS is not needed.

I certainly don't think demurrage is a good plan. People just mentally don't like the idea of their investement decreasing.   However a lot of people are claiming pos would help secure the network more than just POW now mining has dwindled due to the bulk of the minting is over.

Reddit folks should come on here. QRK is very active in other places but really new people to crytpo are here.

PoS is getting popular because of the recent influx of PoS-reliant coins with a large initial distribution. Essentially, PoS is getting popular because it allows people to dump coins without losing any of their initial investment. That is good if the coin is intended to be used only to be converted into BTC or other coins. If you want a coin to become a currency capable of standing on its own, then it's counterproductive to tempt those holding it to keep hoarding or dump obscenely large amounts of it, unless it was part of the original specifications.

Hi OC can we confirm that this fork of sph - works i haven't had a chance to test :

https://github.com/DJstone/sph-sgminer

it has the corrected diff adjustment - if anyone wants to test, i apparently works on Quark clones,  if this is the case here is the first Quark GPU miner that functions correctly.

the maker I will find if anyone wants to tip him .

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=290178

DJstone - his QRK address is in the sig.
