[ANN] [MINT] Mintcoin (POS / 5%) [NO ICO] [Fair distro, community maintained]

We need to get MINT on coinmarketcap

Need a main exchange first, coinedup will work.

Explorer part of the requirement is done.

There needs to be a much better explanation of the PoS piece on the main page of this thread as well. It's not clear how its structured and how the actual minting happens here.

For wallets with a passphrase go to the console in the wallet after your coins are 20 days old  (and have not been moved), type:    walletpassphrase <yourpassphrase> 90000000

This will unlock your wallet to generate stake for 90000000 seconds (you can pick any number), if you close the wallet this procedure will need to be repeated again.  To confirm it worked look at the little lock on the wallet and it will be in the unlocked position.   That's all I know about it wish I had more info for ya.

This is looking like a coin that will really take off!

One exchange i would like us to try and work with, as it is a exchange for the future is: Mcxnow.  If we were to get on there we would be golden.

2nd, I'd like to see more services for mint, games, shops, whatever you have, accept Mint on it .

I'm willing to give out a couple of 100K's for any progress on this front,

And dev, if you need any help with promoting, making sure things happen etc, dont hesitate to contact me, I love the idea of this coin.

Cheers!

Trying to get to 50million before block halving.... It's not going too well

I'm just trying to hit 1Million here with my low power, while still trying to get at least a little bit of some other stuff, I may even fire up CPU mining before the first halving at this rate. How far from your mark are you? With this halving getting to a certain mark before the end is just going to get slower and slower.

Hoping Mint really takes off, but I'd like to get at least 10 Vert as well before things pick up, with my low hash rate even splitting around in small amounts is going annoyingly slow.

With mint's low power afterwards though it should be interesting after the first 5 weeks.

Today I got through to computer wallet my VTC from Cryptsy after 3+ days of waiting for deposit to site. When the coins appeared in my balance, I withdrew all without hesitation. The process went smooth sailing.
I predicted that when price drops, I'll be able to get my coins back. It happened..

Now I am more sure that they manipulate with our trader's coins and overall crypto currency market.

So NEVER EVER USE CRYPTSY if possible!

I'm currently at just under 33million, got another 17million to go to get my target. This coin is going to be big. New, innovative, interesting and bloody hard to get hold of after tomorrow

Only twice as hard with the first halving, I've been doing around 100k a day I think gonna drop me to 50k a day, then 25k, Ive got around 530K gunning for 1M 7 days of 50k will only be 350k. Leaving me at around 880 to fill at 25k a day, it's going to be close. Depending on values I may just mine something else and buy direct. I bought some at 5 because I was worried a buy order at 4 would not fill before it rose to 6-7. Only was about a 60k coin difference, but that stuff still adds up.

Too bad that i only have 10 million coins, maybe that will be enough to make some serieus money.

After reward halving, buying them at 5 will seem cheap

10million is a very respectable amount! Next week it is so much harder to acquire, take your self just 3 more weeks in to the future. I'll be just as hard to get 10million then as it is to get 80million now. So get what you can now!

You said 10 million coin is too bad, I just have 266k coin here -_-

Did anyone calculate the rate every 20 days? Is 20% the yearly compounded rate (year 1) assuming PoS is minted every 20 days? So that's about 0.5% or so every 20 days (for comparison, Hobonickels pays out 2% every 10 days).

Why Verts? Are you thinking this coin will take off again? I have triple amount of them and can't decide whether to convert those to MINT or not

It's not minted every 20 days. The PoS STARTS after 20 days.

I would say - trade them to mint!
4sat -> 8 sat is faster than 50->100

I quote:
"PoS blocks will be generated after you hold some coins in your wallet for certain period of time. For MintCoin the minimum requirement is 20 days."

POS starts after 5 weeks as OP stated.

Minting starts after 20 days of holding the coins in your wallet.

A simple thought experiment.... What might happen to the price from here?

Current price you can get is 4 satoshi, with block reward halving each week for 5 weeks, you can double the price each week for it to keep up with cost of mining.

So....

Week 0 - 4 sat
Week 1 - 8 sat
Week 2 - 16 sat
Week 3 - 32 sat
Week 4 - 64 sat
Week 5 - 128 sat

If price stays in line with cost to acquire, then 128 satoshi after 5 weeks would not be unreasonable. So if this is wrong and it is only 40 satoshi in 5 weeks - so what? thats 1000% profit from here! Time is limited!

Of course maybe only get half this. But still a great return from here!

Good luck!

scarcity don't make the coin more valuable, demand make it, don't hold much hope for that price
would be good if it reach 20-30, 120 is just ...unreal
