+1. Exactly what I said in the other thread.

What we going to call it? Spamcoin

THE PROTECTIONS THAT WERE PUT IN PLACE WERE SO THAT POOLS COULD NOT CHANGE THE CODE, AND START MALICIOUS ATTACKS, LIKE THE ONE WE JUST RECEIVED THE OTHER DAY FROM ARTFROZ. WE DID NOT "LOCK" THE CODE UP, OR HIDE IT AWAY IN SOME SECRET SHELF. THE CODE IS STILL VERY MUCH OPEN SOURCE, AND ANYONE CAN STILL WRITE/DELETE FROM IT.

[Bobnova]

All caps makes anything more believable!

[ElectricMucus]

sure why not, in that case it might be wise to set the initial difficulty at something like 5000

The idea of keeping SC alive seemed silly.

New fork?  Sure, but lettin CH profit from his own screwups seems silly.

Although if SC does die, I feel bad for those who lost a -lot-... but that's the risk I guess.

But if it's gonna continue, I'd start it over again with a new name.  The SC 'brand' has been tooooo hurt by this, imo.

CH would not profit from a new fork. Quite the opposite.

Oh you misunderstood me.  I'm agreeing with a new *fork*, one where any SC's held by CH (or anyone else for that matter) would be invalid.

I still like the most common typo:  SoldCoin.
Or maybe BoughtCoin?
RealValueReallyISwearItWontCollapseCoin?
ToHellWithCoinHunterCoin?


I mean honestly, what are the odds of an alternate currency actually succeeding alongside of or replacing bitcoin?
Seem pretty minimal to me, it's the Get Rich Quick effect that I think most (all?) are after.

Bitcoin is the Microsoft, all the other coins are at best linux distros.

[Lumpy]

Ugh, please don't compare Bitcoin to Microsoft.

[Bobnova]

Both are 800lb gorillas with a sea of spidermonkeys swarming around them.  Seems about right to me

Can't we flatten the blockchain removing whatever was mined before SolidCoin went public?

It should be possible to pick out transactions and merge them into a new blockchain ignoring everything before some given block number.

It's not totally fair as the pre-mined coins may have moved about a bit. Bounty payments may disappear and it may be a lot of work. It would be a lot fairer than started a whole new blockchain though.

Call them Space Credits.

Admit it the only reason to be interested in preserving solidcoin is being entertained by the drama.
I know I am.

Has been nothing but drama lately, with everything surrounding bitcoin the whole internet laughs at it.

Solv3Coin

[pixilated8]

I kind of like the SolidCoin Open Source.  That way we can abbreviate it as SOS
