Why is Quark up so much? Was there news?
And why verticoin up that much?
Quark I'm not sure, I don't have any. Vertcoin, kind of one of a kind and right in the process of being discovered. It was released 3 weeks ago and is ASIC resistant (no mass mining and no premine, real distribution like bitcoin and litecoin were supposed to be). So they have a really solid coin and getting a lot of spec interest from longtime bitcoiners and litecoiners. And they are doing a pretty good job with promoting... though the performance is pretty self-explanatory I guess.
Buy wall went from 5 BTC yesterday to near 20 BTC tonight
