Dear lord. That saturn one I would have ran way away as soon as I saw those huge ass hashes from a few people like that. All that means is once it hits a major exchange your are FUCKED They gonna dump fast and many, and keep the price from coming up any. Any noob mining that crap is wasting hash IMO, better to let it settle after exchange and see where it may go.

Jesus.. Oh wait, we have Jesus coin, right?

Looks premined to hell. A scam coin yet again. 36Mh on the network with .49 diff and 8141 blocks mined. Gee I wonder why he would have started a self moderated thread. Build date on the client says Jan 30 2014, 15:11:05. I bet thats when he started to mine this.

"blocks" : 8141,
"currentblocksize" : 0,
"currentblocktx" : 0,
"difficulty" : 0.49486148,
"errors" : "",
"generate" : false,
"genproclimit" : -1,
"hashespersec" : 0,
"networkhashps" : 36940633,

Ah, I see, Genesis 1/28/14. Right from his website http://popcoin.biz/ So he started to mine this on Tuesday.

Lets just keep cataloging them, making posts like this to let the community know. These guys will stop when they see they are just wasting their time.

Protect the miners!  Grin

Greed will kill the alts. Even some good pools are supporting those coins. I will definitely be very careful with pools as well. I mean if they're making pools for those scammers maybe they are scammers as well.

the community can cripple whats going on by not allowing it to happen.
their needs to be some sort of rules for launching coins so not just anyone can make a coin premine it, go on an exchange and immediately dump it.
people need to stop investing in coins that dont have a legitamite pre-announcement and lots of info from the devs, these people arent even trying hard anymore and yall are still buying their crap.
and the exchanges allowing some of these coins on them are just as bad, i think half the exchanges are owned by people with gpu farms, so they collect coins at low difficultys then open up an exchange and dump, making millions
like mooncoin, who do you think was collecting coins while it was at the bottom of coinmarketcap.com trading for 1 satoshi...and all the sudden cryptsys gona accept MOON? REALLY?
