GiftCoinhttp://poolnetwork.org/images/other/giftcoin.pngIntroductionWe are going to launch a brand new coin unique to any other. Not another Altcoin, are you serious?! And this one is unique, like all the others, right.. WAIT. Giftcoin is our new idea of coin that can be used for, well, gifts! For example, if someone does you a favour:
Todd: “Hey, could you please help me out with some coding?” Jeffrey: “Sure!” *2 hours later* Jeffrey: “Here you go!” Todd: “Thank you! And here's 20 giftcoins! Get yourself something nice” Jeffrey: “Ah, thanks, Todd.. You shouldn't have!”
And that’s not all! Giftcoin can also be made into a physical giftcard (printed yourself), which can be given at weddings, birthdays or any type of ocassion! Giftcoin will be launching on the 3rd January 2014, so to start your new year off with a bang, mine GiftcoinInformationPoW algorithm: Scrypt Block reward: 50 GFT Block time: 5 minutes Retarget: 2,016 blocks Starting difficulty: 0.00024414 Max supply: 50,000,000 Block rewards: Halves after 200,000 blocks

Why should I mine GiftCoin?
Well, think about how you feel when you receive a Giftcard/voucher.. Infact, let me show you:
How you'd feel if you received a Giftcard/Voucher: http://themissiondad.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/little-girl-crying3.jpg
Why do you feel like this?!? - It's a store giftcard, you can only redeem it for something in one place! - - It's made of paper, it might break - - You might lose it in which case it is now worth nothing - - It will expire after a certain time, making it worth nothing - - Where do I store it? - - I can only use it in-store are you serious?!- - Plus many more reason.. -
How you'd feel if you received a Giftcoin: http://gaygamer.net/images/happy%20man.jpg
Why do you look so joyful?
- Any store will (Possibly?) accept your GiftCoin! - - Your GiftCoin is stored securely in your wallet - - It will NOT expire - - It could increase in value whereas Giftcards/vouchers do not - - You won't misplace it (unless you remove your PC hard drive, but don't do that) - - Generate a your own paper-wallet, give it is a gift and the other person can transfer to their virtual wallet - Soo smooth.. -

IF you can actually deliver on this concept and have actual retailers accept this coin, I'm in. If not, it's just another altcoin.
Will watch with cautious interest.

Giftcoin is a serious coin with a good concept and goals. Among the whole bunch of new coins, most of which are meme or joke coins, it is the most reasonable and promising one. So it will be long lasting. But it needs promotion. Trade and exchange with other cryptos will definitely bring more attention to it and make it grow.

We want retailers to accept this coin, but without it having value we have no bargaining power! We need lots of hash power on our network - If this is accomplished we will do everything in our power to get this currency accepted in stores..
As new coins keep popping up more and more, we as potential investors (we are investing hashing power) should start asking some questions. Like, how many of "you" there are currently, and what kind of previous experience you have to make something like that happen?

Could we have a coin that doesn't have a ridiculously low difficulty at launch? If you genuinely want this coin to have long-term value, then it can't be insta mined and then dump on exchanges. It'll just end up as another abandon-coin.
If you want your coin to actually rise above the sea of copycat garbage, that would be the way to go. I would certainly mine this if that were the case.
I don't have faith in the promises of coins any more, not unless they understand the practicalities of crypto currencies.

Why do you feel like this?!? - It's a store giftcard, you can only redeem it for something in one place! -
Think about how you'd feel if you received a gift card which can be redeemed in no places. Suddenly a one store gift card is looking pretty good.

Please release the wallet first, and prepare the pool carefully. No like Mooncoin, it's really a fking joke.
