Bitcoin was premined by Satoshi Nakamoto, about 8% or so of the total Bitcoin money supply and he doesn't do shit to develop it, so quit your bitching.

The pos interest is 20%, but the dump is 500%+, even more.

What? I'm not sure what that means - are we in negative figures now?

No refer to my post point number 2. Developers are the ones to take these coins above the initial hump. Just reality, many ppl just dont see it.

I disagree - it takes a community effort as well as the devs to get things going, and the devs did a hell of a lot to get the coin over the initial hump.

Your post number 2 is invalid. As I stated  - a good proportion of the premine has already been used. Just because you thought that the bounty for the android wallet wasn't enough, Papsi clearly though that it was. The wallet will be out soon and I'd rather that it was slightly delayed and not released with any bugs.

You really need to try harder at this whole FUD thing.

You know who Satoshi is? Please enlighten us.

You have no idea who he or they are, nor do you have any idea what his/their contribution has been.

All you know is that there is an account with BTC in it. That alone means nothing.

If the developer took the development of the Android Wallet seriously, it would have been completed months ago and the coin would be in much better shape than it is now. That's not FUD.

A true reflection of the developers foresight and vision is reflected in the price of the coin.

We all know where that is.

clearly it hasnt passed initial hump it hasnt evolved enough technically.

There was no bounty for it when I was asked it was a price given by op and
community had to step in to get it going when papsi came in.. that tells you alot.

No sane competent developer would work 60 hours for 0.25 btc or something stupid it equated to. Going rate was around 2-4btc and thats without pos integration. It was clearly misjudged intentionally with no remorse to change it when asked. So point 2 is very valid.

It will be out soon? The code hasnt been touched in over a month and I dont see any updates, not sure where you are getting your "soon" from.

Development hasn't stopped, I'm just not pushing my changes. And I'm busy with some real life stuff lately, otherwise it's 99% complete and ready to be released.

Don't judge android wallet's value by it's mint bounty. I'm not doing the MINT part for its bounty, it's not a freelance job for me -- I believe this is a community work, and I hope the community will take over its development when it's released. There are no POS bitcoinj forks in existence (and I doubt that anyone can manage to release something), and this is the first bitcoinj fork for POS coins, and it works (the POS library). For last few months, I haven't touched mintcoinj part and only been fiddling with getting the android UI to work besides my real life responsibilities.

I will be well compensated by other POS coins once it's done, I see other coins as freelance projects, not mint. I hope the community does not see this as a freelance too, because I'm not doing this for it's bounty, I'm not working as for a paid project to do mint's wallet, I'm doing it just because of being part of this community and that I am able to do it.

Thanks for your work paspi, I completely understand what you're saying with being busy with real life stuff. I would love to work on mint 24hr but for most of us crypto is a hobby besides work/family/school/..

I feel mint is different from other PoS coins, it has great specs and a lot of things coming in the (near) future. As the team said it's a long term coin. I don't think it's impossible to see mintcoin in the top 10 of coinmarketcap.com next year.

Can you give a rough estimate when the android mint wallet will be released?

I think everyone appreciates the efforts of Paspi.

While I appreciate his is practically a volunteer effort (the amount of Mint put up by the developer was never adequate, even when Mint was higher), there needs to be some sort of date or target for completion.

Or this could drag on forever....which might be ok for the other coins who will end up adopting it, Mintcoin could be dead long before then.

Any chance for a launch date Paspi?

Well, currently, "millions" of Mintcoins are not worth very much, but with the release of of the android wallet, it will help the value of your bounty to increase in real terms. So the future value of the mint bounty could be very well worth it.

Mintcoin's proof-of-stake participation rate has been steadily increasing.  A couple months ago it was at about 60% which is very very good, but currently Mintcoin is cooking along at a PoS participation rate of over 63% now. This is huge!  And this is an extremely good statistic because PoS is the way for the security of the network. This participation rate is even higher than Peercoin's which is around 58%.

Interesting observation, where can you find this percentage?

You can figure it out from the block explorer by tracking the amount of new coins being produced over time.  If you do the math, you'll see that even though the annual minting rate is 20% this year, not everyone is minting their coins so the actual inflation rate of the money supply is much lower like about "~13%" for this year. Coins that are on exchanges or in cold storage are not minting/staking and are therefore not working to secure the network. A higher participation rate is a good thing, and right now Mintcoin's participation is quite good, pushing almost 64% on average. It means that on average 63-64% of all of the coins are in Mintcoin wallets, actively staking/minting.

63.5% * 20% = 12.7% (or as I said above, "about ~13%")

Very interesting article on the world of mobile - NOT related to Mintcoin but....

http://venturebeat.com/2014/07/08/for-sequoia-capital-mobile-tectonics-is-how-itll-find-its-next-billion-dollar-company/

Imagine an app (I mean really, USE YOUR IMAGINATION) that became hugely popular. Then it integrated in-app purchases, but only accepted Mintcoin as its currency of choice.

That's why an Android Wallet is not a LUXURY but a NECESSITY.

If Mintcoin can't move freely over mobile, it can't be a part of the largest growing area of the internet.

Almost 1 Billion smart phones were sold in 2013, add tablets to the equation and you see the power of mobile vs desktop.

I know this is sort of off topic but can't stress enough the importance of the Android Wallet for the future of Mintcoin...

Yup I developed devcoinauctions.com.. worlds first open src business backed by an open source community. It also allows you to by goods cheaper than market rates. I feel it is things like this that will get a coin over the hump. Next I will do a bounty exchange where developers and vendors are matched
up..

I Already did the first merge mined android wallet but its waiting for
the new devcoin client I did to mine a block so I
cAn validate it and then put it on google play.

"I Already did the first merge mined android wallet but its waiting for"

ERGHHHHH....wish the developer of Mintcoin was willing to pay you market rates for an Android App 3-4 months ago. I shudder to think where this coin could be right now.

Oh well. Good luck with Devcoin.
