By now you should compile your wallet by your own from source code, but soon it will be available to download.

It was not premined!!! It was announced on cryptocointalk right after first block was mined (24/10/2013), so after first block there was at list 10 miners on network! Also GUI client is done, you just need to compile it by yourself.

yes. and you have been silently mining it
no one cares about this coin, name is stupid also.

look at your topic, it has no interest at all
https://cryptocointalk.com/topic/1443-betacoin-bet-information/

lol.

after few days of your premine nobody cares about your coins so you came there
to get some noobs mining, create pools, blockexplorers, exchanges

1. Coin and services is in development
2. I was not silent mining it alone! It also was announced on IRC channels etc. And again it was about 10 miners since the beginning of network, even without precompiled clients
3. Name is good.

I quess, yes, you are missing:)
 BETA means not only development stage:)
Also it is second letter, as you now, so in that way it is second coin after Bitcoin:)
Also BETA in transcription is beɪtə and sound like "BETTER" with some accent Smiley

etc etc etc.

ok, i am here. So why we can see difficulty going down now so fast? It is because of diff adjustment algo in Betacon and about premining blames.

Betacoin diff adjust algo works like that:

Phase 1 - untill 16000 block (when network is poor and not lots of people know about Betacoin)

Diff adjustment every 6 blocks based on last 1536 blocks, and with the minus 10% adjustment and plus 2% adjustment.

Phase 2 - after 16000 block (when network will became stronger)

Diff adjustment every 6 blocks based on last 48 blocks, and with the minus 2% adjustment and plus 1% adjustment.

So right after announce on cryptocointalk.com 24/10/2013 i was checking network status very often, and have seen at least 10 miners in first day, also i notised that those miners had about 60-100 GH of total speed (common situation when new SHA256 coin launched), so in 3 days diff became about 8000, and then i quess they leave the network. After that block time became terribly slow (~1 block in 1 hour), so network begin to adjust itself, and because Phase 1 difficulty adjustment is based on last 1536 block you can see now what you see - i mean huge difficulty drop, because based on 1536 blocks average block time still is about ~4 min.

This thing with difficulty drops on first 16000 blocks was made to give all initial miners a chance to mine coin, even with low speed and even not at the first day of coin launch.

Soon we will see difficulty go up with +2% every 6 blocks.

Hi there

There's a a few things you forgot to change when the source was cloned from Joulecoin.

1. Checkpoint data

Tx number should be 0 for the genesis block, you're still using the tx number from checkpoint 3 in Joulecoin.
Estimated tx/day is also wrong for betacoin, you're still using the value applicable to Joulecoin.

Quote from: checkpoints.cpp
static const CCheckpointData data = {
        &mapCheckpoints,
        1382532797, // * UNIX timestamp of last checkpoint block
        37150,      // * total number of transactions between genesis and last checkpoint
                    //   (the tx=... number in the SetBestChain debug.log lines)
        1920        // * estimated number of transactions per day after checkpoint
    };

2. You are using the same message start characters as Joulecoin, this means messages from the one network can be transmitted on the other. Not a train smash, but unfortunate.

Quote from: chainparams.cpp
       pchMessageStart[0] = 0xa5;
        pchMessageStart[1] = 0xc0;
        pchMessageStart[2] = 0x79;
        pchMessageStart[3] = 0x55;


Cheers
John
