[ANN][DOGE] Dogecoin - very currency many coin - v1.10.0

[Bit_Happy]

Interesting, albeit really long, discussion about implementing Proof of Stake, by Dogecoin's developpers:
http://www.reddit.com/r/dogecoindev/comments/289ki5/okay_lets_talk_proofofstake/

Congrats to DOGE for breaking the mold and blazing new trails: So far, I read the OP and it's a surprise they can even consider this.
Are there any other coins that completely changed their basic nature, at least among the top 10?
I didn't think this was "allowed", but DOGE might go where no coin has gone before.

That is an interesting read. As a miner, I appreciate them not making a rash move, allowing me to continue to build up a few before the possibility of having to switch.

Indeed, none in the top 10 have done that! I'm under the impression that Dogecoin's community is more flexible than the others, and the loyal miners wouldn't mind taking a small cut by implementing PoS if it means a more secure future for the coin in the long run (which is not the case in BTC's community, where more than a third of the miners continue to mine at ghash.io)

And it's nice to see that the coin is backed not only by a plethora of awesome users, but also by many intelligent devs and leaders.

However, the case for PoS is a really though call, considering that a few big holders will get most of the new coins. But then again, there won't be that many new coins, and inflation could change to 2.5% instead of 5. Or perhaps the value relative to LTC would go up enough for PoW to remain secure. However, does PoW truly offer a better distribution, considering the huge ASIC farms?

I guess only the future will tell

This is a very serious decision:
Is anyone consulting with the founder?
(Not the human, but has the Doggie been asked for an opinion?)

Does anyone or does anyone know of a place where I can download the DOGE block chain zipped? No bootstrap .dat as this moment pls.

[Bit_Happy]

I intended to sign up at Reddit and never took the leap. Not sure I need another place to spend time.
Do any Reddit fans have positive reasons to sign up/ why do you like it?

Prices have been falling, why?

[BitSlapper]

Prices have been falling, why?

Scrypt ASIC miners need to make their 10k USD investment back . So watch Litecoin and Dogecoin dump like crazy the next 3-4 months.

Scrypt miners were much more expensive before asics came out. I think it has more to do with more and more coins being made every day. Overall (total) Doge value is still going up. Once the rewards half a few more times the value per coin will go back up, as well. There really is nothing in regards to flaws in the coin itself to make a person concerned about the individual coin value going down right now.

[najzenmajsen]

Price is going down because there's not enough choclate to sustain all the doges minin

What is Dogecoin hashing at, when is next halving?
