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

[michelvankessel]

it's a great project. I am using the Blackcoin Legacy wallet at the moment and I am waiting for the next Blackcoin Lore wallet update.

I stake my coins and earn a few coins on a daily basis.

if you have any questions, please feel free to ask them here or on https://gitte[Suspicious link removed]/BlackCoin_Hub/Support

Based on Proof-of-Stake, No more power hungry mining hardware. Fast transactions
Blackcoin has the potential to grow

Not sure if it will accept my post of your link better.     BLK has been going since 2014, its not just anything its many things and its still being developed.   Theres no reason to draw conclusions from just the first six months  because BTC has gone down since December.   Sure that decline sucks and that bigger influence knocks onto the small economies like BLK and every crypto coin but its still here working away just the same as previous years and it'll keep plowing forward into 2019 also.     Its worth some perservance is what I'm trying to mention, I say that from the perspective of following this project over many years.   Its not reliant on any one person which is key to any crypto standard for longterm continuation and success

No more power hungry mining hardware

I really do think this is something.    Every day POW progresses they have to resolve this efficency dynamic they have, we dont have this problem.   POS wallets will run on anything and I dont need expensive hardware or alot of wattage to power it.  
So think of that as a ratio, the prospects for POS are improving this is a very viable long term path where POW must juggle and somehow find a way where it doesnt cost so much to process that it becomes a problem.  BLK is super easy, fast and cheap to transact, we have the upper hand on this imo

  Bad news guys!     On Thursday August 2nd, at 00:00 UTC, the following assets will be delisted from Poloniex: FLO, FLDC, XVC, BCY, NXC, RADS, BLK, PINK and RIC.
More information read on Official twitter:  https://twitter.com/Poloniex/status/1022500927167754241  
  From such news and the price fell down but it's not surprising. But I continue to believe in Blackcoin and I have BLK coins and I hope for the further development of the company and I would like to add that Poloniex Exchange is not an indicator of success! But still it's not nice to see such news ... can anyone know why it happened  

[Hardunkichud]

Ouch, there goes 18% of the volume.  Thanks for pointing this out.

It's no big deal, Poloniex is not the biggest exchange anymore. Blackcoin is very well covered in terms of exchanges. The price drop is a
bit excessive. Blackcoin still is better than a lot of projects out there.

I just think that we need to stop strumming that old tune "POS is more economical than Bitcoin". That worked years ago, it doesn't work anymore.
Things are far more competitive than they used to be. Investors are going to start comparing coins far beyond who was the first full POS coin.
It's of course important but it's too monotone. Investors are going to seek tools that better their lives.

Blackcoin should champion it's unique features. BlackHalo/BitHalo, the colored coin wallet, Lore, etc, etc. Also we could always just fork and improve the
staking/scaling process. A lot of great developments have happened for POS that can be added to strengthen the system and scale it.

[r_victory]

what about repartition of the three coins in exchanges?

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

thank you so much for this interesting precision !

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.

BLK is more valued than Jul/17, it has a large community and competent developers. Lately I've seen a lot of new developments and progress. Poloniex is no longer the top exchange and the BLK can be bought in many other exchanges.

HYIP You better review your concepts! You're talking about a legitimate POS coin, from which many others have been created. Do your research!

Oh I agree with the whole energy argument. Nobody cares, and if they do, then they see the huge energy consumption of Bitcoin as a prove of value rather than a burden.   

BLK's strength is that it's PoS with the most integrity. There's no veiled mechanics that make the rich richer, anyone can participate.

Still, Poloniex is not to be sniffed at. I don't trust the volume on Coinegg and Bittrex is only marginally larger than Poloniex. Unless this is some giant insider trading scheme that finally ends in the crescendo of BLK being added to Binance (and there's a massive chance they eventually will considering they added NAV for free as well), I think it looks bleak.

Well it is bleak as long as nobody uses Halo or nobody takes charge to add more features to the chain. Investors should consider that for 4 years we have had the only software in the world that does peer to peer unbreakable contracts which can be used for trustless wires, trustless international trade, unbreakable employment contracts and for any deal where escrow is not an option. That is even ignoring the insane amount of savings of not having to carry insurance, not having to pay third parties and not needing to worry about theft. Not to mention on top of a decentralized market on Bitmessage.

The issue is, nobody wants to use Bitcoin, they just want to speculate on it. That and if they are on clearnet, people want to pay the middle man because of volume. BlackHalo benefits with increased userbase of BitHalo and visa versa.

The irony of decentralization is when there are so few leaders things become disorganized. If investors are along for the ride, they pretty much get what they put into it. If they lead the charge forward they reap the benefits. For BLK to move forward someone needs to start improving it's blockchain to keep up with the competition and there is a lot of things that BLK can add. There is sidechains, shared stake or sharding, dynamic block sizes, pruning, even some sort of scalable scripting language.

Blackcoin has leaders. It is just getting started with a whole new life. I thought you knew that it is Janko, Lateminer and I that are doing developments to make it far greater than it has before?

[Gritt-N-Auld]

I got to say I am fully impressed by how positive the community has actually responded to the Circle Poloniex debacle.

I don't think it was motivated by the fact that BLK was low volume on there. It actually had quite decent volume. They stated that they removed coins based on the fact that they don't fit with the new framework. This could mean that they either see full PoS as a risk, i.e potential security, spoiler, it isn't, or the fact that rat4 is an anonymous developer and that doesn't fly with them. Regardless of the intentions, it was never communicated to Poloniex of the massive changes in Blackcoin. Regardless, we move forward.

I have been talking to the Chinese community for the past couple of weeks and they had mentioned a few exchanges that they would like to see Blackcoin on, and we are in e-mail discussions with them. I don't want to throw around the name but with we will be submitting Blackcoin to Binance on behalf of the Lore developers and will be encouraging everyone to vote.

There are a few positions in Blackcoin Lore that we need filled up by the community that I can see:
- Developers that are learning or want to learn, its fun, trust me, if you like puzzles, then you'll love this
- Marketing with experience with graphics
- Fundraising proposals and ideas
- Communities established for speakers of other languages

A legally accountable person is a must for any project these days. Without it, it won't be traded on exchanges. This may also be the main hurdle to get on Binance. You said they want all kinds of fishy information before they list but that shit only seems to apply to the usual ICO scams. For a legit coin like BLK, they would only require a representative that is responsible for the project should anything ever go wrong. After all, they listed Navcoin, which is the most similar thing to BLK. That community doesn't have a warchest either. There's no way they'd be able to cough up the funds for a 'non-legit project'  listing fee.   

If you're willing to give Binance just that, accountability, I'm sure they'd have BLK up in there in no time.

Before I was unwilling, now I'm willing.

[Hardunkichud]

Awesome. Not much to worry out to begin with, BLK can't be exit-scammed, which is the only thing they're worried for. Then I suppose all you need now is some other BLK big shots willing to vouch you're the real thing. Vince and Janko should get in on that.

I agree that Blackcoin still is well covered in terms of exchanges, but still it's a kick in the nuts from Poloniex. Blackcoin was one of the coins that made them big and kept the volume flowing for years. Just does not seem logical for them to do this.

Ah well, time to look further and show them what they are missing!

[ZellaAnders]

Alright, no ICO, I respect that.
I also respect the kind of discussions that you guys seem to enjoy in this thread. No whining, no bitching and moaning, that's pretty damn refreshing))

last trading day polo there
i lose more than 1.2BTC，i will take it as a good lesson

[STT]

I used to trade on Poloniex but I found it had problems with resolving any issues and there was no response from support so I took that as a warning sign not to use the place.  I think they got bought out at one point which is probably for the best in terms of stability but I guess this also means they streamlined and made things as simple as possible so they can get back to full working order.  Hope they come back to full strength and who knows maybe BLK can return there some day again but I've not felt great about using them for long time anyway

What is this coin even doing anymore? Is there even any active development?
