In jan 10th the coin "klondikeCoin" was launched, and let me tell you that was the most successfull launch Ive seen in a long time! No premine, few coins and a seriously brilliant dev-team behind it. Also the name is brilliant if you check up the meaning of Klondike gold rush
the difficulty is still around 1,3ish and it is still recommended to solo-mine since it still is very profitable. If the rest goes as smooth as it has until now, this coin will be bitcoin part 2 IMO. No bullshit memes or crap that will attract dumpers to destroy it when it hits market. This is a serous coin guys, ofc im gonna tell you all to stay away from it (means more coins for me ;P) But you should really check this one out and hop on the gold rush
