[ANN] Blackcoin Protocol [BLK] | Home of PoS 3.0 | No ICO | No Pre-mine

Ok some updates:

Website: https://blackcoin.org
Twitter: https://twitter.com/blackcoinorg
Code repo: https://gitlab.com/blackcoin/

Slowing moving everything there and making updates. Takes time to do all this myself. Also, testing builds and will make some updates.

I also started the initiative PoS Alliance with other PoS coins such as Peercoin, PIVX, NAV, BitBay, Cloakcoin, Komodo, Particl, Vericoin.

Great initiative, Gritt. It makes sense to bundle forces with some more of the other established PoS projects. Will follow this more closely.

wow yeah！ I will buy 5000+BLK today

BLK users really need IOS wallet，if you have IOS wallet，I could switch all my BTC and ETH to BLK！
I did send email to Coinbase regarding Blackcoin adoption.

We were rejected by apple =(.

Not going to stop til Blackcoin is top 100, then top 50. Then top 20, again. ICOs will drop like flies as time goes by.

Great idea on that alliance Josh. We could try to implement some of the solutions talked about.

Saw this posted in discussion and figured it has relevance to the ongoing case for Proof of stake over POW
It does seem to me like cost to operate will be an issue at some point to challenge the success of POW coin like BTC or ETH

DPOS white paper comes after BLK but I have read any POS usage criticised in a similar way

The algorithm is too old. Many asics can mine the very huge amount of coins. Too bad

BLK new coins only turn out in a small amount to BLK holders via active wallets forming the network.   Theres no possible ASIC use, the capital requirement mostly comes from holding the BLK itself not 3rd party manufacturing like ASIC technology.
The last mining done on this protocol was over 4 years ago now and then it was only briefly distributed in this way, the thread is new/remade but the BLK coin is not even slightly close to new

The option to burn BLK for a new coin is great for BLK. It really raises the value of Blackcoin. Value comes in but it doesn't go back out again.

Yea I can see that would be the case in theory and anyhow it will interesting to see.    This concept reminds me of this real event from pop history, again no value is lost by this action but still you got to agree its kinda unbelievable:

I can make a coin purse for Rapsberry.
With all instructions.

Is this relevant?

Probably just a question of size I think, I doubt Apple look into every project submitted with equal time.     I cant see a point to blocking a simple wallet, its not like it would enable exchanging to FIAT money or some greater concern of regulation.   Unless it included advertising or something they objected to, I imagine they control that virtual real estate quite closely.    Apple has profit margins of upto 70% partly by guarding access to their userbase from simple open competition, ie. pc repair is something they try to avoid.

When do we moon again like in 2014? Or at least 2017 July?

Or is it at least still possible?

[meandmrjones]

Is there a BlackCoin telegram group?

I've bought and held quite a large stack since 3455 sats.

I lost around %40 since.

Ofcourse it's still possible. The height of the pump will be determined by the news and development flow paired with the hype that comes from this. At the very least July 2017 heights should be possible, I would assume somewhere in the next few months.

Bear with us there will be 3 versions of #Blackcoin, trust us, it makes sense, we hope:

- Blackcoin Legacy, v1.2 BLK
- Blackcoin Lore, v1.3 BLK (in progress)
- Blackcoin More, BLK on 0.16 BTC

It is going to be a lot of work to get Blackcoin up to date with all of the tech.

Blackcoin Legacy is all of rat4's updates up until the point that he left the project, which is v1.2.
Blackcoin Lore is continuing on Blackcoin's legacy. It will be pulling in updates from other projects that make sense for Blackcoin. It is severely outdated.
Blackcoin More, which was previously Blackcoin Lore (I know confusing) is basically Bitcoin with Blackcoin stuff. That was the easiest thing to push out the door but doesn't preserve commit history and generally frowned upon development.

TO REDUCE CONFUSION what is 'Lore'? Lore is essentially those behind the software together. Blackcoin is protocol. Blackcoin Lore is software that is improving the Blackcoin protocol.

TLDR:
- BLK More is BTC with BLK stuff.
- BLK Lore is BLK with other stuff
- BLK Legacy is old rat4 stuff.

Also blackcoin.org git is now updated to require 3 code review approvals before any changes can happen.

it makes sense my only question is will all 3 wallets be updated continuosly or will legacy be left alone?

Legacy has all rat4 updates up to him adding in RPC burn wallet. Since then he has been branding everything as Blacknet.

Lore will continue on Legacy.
More is entirely different.

what about repartition of the three coins in exchanges?

[Gritt-N-Auld]

There will be no forks. Just different wallets for the same protocol.

thank you so much for this interesting precision !

Hi.

I have been reading and doing research about this project, and I have just a couple of questions.

Taking into account that the project seems really good with innovative features and that has been alive since many years ago, why is not more popular? what has happen?  Should be on the TOP 20-30.

There is something in the history of this project that I have missed?

In December, the blackcoin coin seemed very promising to me. I even invested 10% of the portfolio in BLK. Only now I understand that this is just a hyip, actually having no value.
