Edit: and at current difficulty (16,819), the exchange rate has to fall below .009 before mining SolidCoins is less profitable than Bitcoins.
At difficulty 16819, the parity would be 0.01455053 right? (16819 / 32) / (1806098 / 50) You are correct. I forgot about the 32 coins It briefly dipped below parity earlier today. Still, as someone elsewhere said, 'I do not mine for what the price of coins are today, I mine for what they will be in the future'. All miners are inherently long on whatever coins they are mining, and it appears by the network graphs that more and more miners are long SolidCoins.

Hopefully not too many too quickly, otherwise the entire BTC network will crash and SC will get the blame... *** Bounties page has been updated with 40 new promotion bounties. The other ones are all used up now (3 still being confirmed but they are taken). http://solidcoin.info/bounties.phpThe new bounty is "First 40 to post about the "5 reasons to switch to SolidCoin" article on their blog/forum/twitter*" , value 25 SC .

That's right, it's really important that both currencies thrive side by side. We need a good exchange medium outside of $ / £ / €

could there be an additional variable for the day average (or similar) if that's not too much to ask?
I've added two variables, the high and low price in the last 24 hours. You could maybe find a midpoint between these as an average. There is an 'average' price in the ticker which is a weighted average over the last 24 hours but it has an intermittent bug which can make this lower than the low price for the day. I haven't included this since that'll cause problems with your pricing. When I've fixed that bug I'll add it and let you know. Thanks hun. I'll try to work out what to do with them as soon as I can get my head around it.

Why do you think it's important to have both? I'm pretty sure we're dealing with a natural monopoly here. There don't seem to be any significant benefits to having two viable blockchain-based currencies, while there a several disadvantages. Even if another blockchain does overtake Bitcoin, SolidCoin won't be the one to do it. To be successful, the challenger would need to make significant protocol-level improvements, and even that might not be enough. CoinHunter hasn't done this. Protocol-wise, all he's done is changed a few constants; nothing more complex than what the creator of Ixcoin did.

If you got 99 economists in a room and one monkey you should ask the monkey for financial advice.Maybe there is a natural monopoly for one currency, that may not be Solidcoin, but it's just as likely not Bitcoin either. By all accounts the "First to market" isn't always, or even usually, the final "winner". Look at Altavista V Google, Friendster V Facebook, the list goes on ....

All miners are inherently long on whatever coins they are mining, and it appears by the network graphs that more and more miners are long SolidCoins. But coins are also generated faster (32 every 3 minutes vs BTC at 50 per 10 minutes), so its even more in favor of SC If anyone is interested, I need someone to double check the math on my (very messy) spreadsheet to figure out if SC or BTC is more profitable to mine. Check it out and please find mistakes! https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AjXdY6gpvmJ4dGxqSmhrektQZ2FVVTNiNUE2RnM0U0E&hl=en_US#gid=0

You may want to do some youtube videos so we can all see you are who you claim to be. ... Shame, a porn star runnin around the bitcoin forums would spice things up a bit. I'm assuming lorna isn't lorna, but I could be wrong there too.
I wanted to formally ask CoinHunter to add solidcoin.info to my http://payco.in directory. And anyone else running a bitcoin/solidcoin site please add them in. I want to really be in there promoting bitcoin & solidcoin as payment solutions. I took the opportunity to prove I'm me at the same time. Shame the video from the mobile phone is so rubbish ... I won't be doing that again. http://www.facebook.com/Lorna.Morgan.Model/posts/165399963537108http://twitter.com/#!/lorna_morgan/status/107445930436993024 http://dai.ly/qK7kiTMeh

I acknowledged that Bitcoin may not win out. However, it is currently the only viable contender. Trivially-different "me too" clones don't stand a chance. The comparison to social networks is rather apt here; network effects are key. There's no benefit for current Bitcoin users to switch to SolidCoin, and newcomers to the cryptocurrency world are going to be heavily inclined to pick the more popular one. I've been skeptical of these blockchain forks since Ixcoin started, and events have played out pretty much as I expected with both Ixcoin and I0coin. I've been a lot quieter about SolidCoin, because I figure that everyone getting into it has already had more than ample warning about what's to come. However, I didn't see you involved in any of the previous Ixcoin/I0coin threads. You lack the "fuck you got mine" attitude typical of alternative blockchain speculators. You seem to actually care about promoting cryptocurrency for its own sake, and are trying to offer something of value. Hell, you even donated your merchant bounty back. I'd hate to see you get burned on this thing without warning, so consider this your warning and do with it what you will.

Because what I'm saying is that the most reasoned arguments can turn out to be b******t. It happens everyday here and on the real money markets too. I'm not going to fall into the trap of making a stand when I know I don't really know the answer for sure. But I am prepared to take a chance. However, I didn't see you involved in any of the previous Ixcoin/I0coin threads. You lack the "fuck you got mine" attitude typical of alternative blockchain speculators.
