The faucet doesn't work, we got a small wallet sync issues (wallet is always at sync). The dev has to respond to these at least for the coin to be considered alive.
I smell a community take over a brewing!
How about the community make some changes to this coin, like add some features like PoS or kitomo gravity, those seem to be the thing these days... i found a working link to the source code for LDC in a post over in the Chinese language section...
https://github.com/lead-coin/leadcoinThe post where that link came from..
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=425688.0just my two cents...
It'll fail. There's never a community takeover. The dev's gone, the coin's gone.
PoS is horrible. It's the worst thing ever.
It encourages holding the coins as investment, avoiding it's circulation, i.e. true use as a cryptocurrency. Then worst -- PoS looks at the coin age; the longer you're holding a large amount of cryptocurrency, the higher the chance of mining a block, which further reduces chance of circulation. However if the profits proof of stake is giving you is negligible, then we may nullify this disadvantage.
You need to run a full node in order for the wallet to mine blocks based on PoS and it should be up always; how many people will do that? (especially when the interest rate is low)? When these coins will be made popular, 90% people will run paper wallets giving power to the hands of these 10%; thus an attack may not be that hard to do.
That's why PPcoin is so much high in the crypto list. People will hold it like a commodity, but when it comes to buying things with it, people wont do it -- cause it's a commodity, not a currency.
And that explains why PPcoin distribution is so horrible.
