[ANN] SkrittCoin Tyria's first cryptocurrency

[skrittcoin]

SkrittCoin (SKTC) is a POW currency based on an april fools post from Guild Wars 2, an MMORPG game by ArenaNet.
A minigame was created by user that_shaman on Reddit and can be viewed and played here: https://www.skrittcoin.org/
You can also find his original reddit thread at https://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/88pd97/presenting_skrittcoin_tyrias_first_cryptocurrency/

I decided to created a scrypt based coin and present it to the community both on bitcointalk and reddit.
This is meant to be lighthearted, so have fun with it. I went ahead and mined 1% of the coins ahead of time so I would have some to hand out,
and who knows, I may even recoup my server hosting costs some day
As for a use case, well it could be used to trade for just about anything, up to the community of that one.

Some specifications:
Block time-5min
Difficulty retarget-10min
coin reward per block-725
Total coin supply-30757576
Algo-Scrypt
# of confirmations for transaction verification-6
mined coin maturity-20 confirmations
RPC port-35902
P2P port-35901

I have hosted nodes on 2 linux servers for redundancy, both are coded into the wallet.
node 1: 18.232.33.200
node 2: 34.211.217.27

if it's based on april fools then this might be a joke or not really a real crypto project? but at least you're very honest buddy bout your premine. that maybe because of that at least recover the hosting expenses.

I don't really care if I do or not, it doesn't really matter. That's why we set it to 1%. And most of those are probably going to be handed out anyway.

Added our wallet address so you can see where are coins are/are going. I'm gonna be out for the day doing easter things so I won't be around to reply much, just fyi.

It seems to me a very good project unh, even if it does not have interesting graphics. Taking into account the premeditated is a very small one. Good Job!

the port in the top part of this announcement is wrong. It should be 3433. Could you change it? Thanks!

Submitted a request for the graviex exchange. I'll keep you updated.

This is hilarious. I love it. I'll mine with my gpu. Hopefully not many asics are mining atm.

Depending on what you have I wouldn't expect much. Even 1 asic can ruin all  gpu miners fun.
