What are the main uses cases for this coin / differentiates it from others other than the interest?
Thanks
At almost 3 years strong, mintcoin's quick 30 second block times allow for speedy transactions. POS allows for energy and cost savings as opposed to POW. The friendly and inviting mint community maintain the coin without IPO funds, crowd sales, or expectations of profit. Mintcoin has a tradition of charitable giving to earth friendly charities. While there is not a particular campaign running at the moment, we expect launch a new campaign in the future which sets new levels of transparency in charitable giving. The mintcoin team has progressed thru multiple devs and 3 phases of community leaders and has continued to flourish despite multiple re-structures. The team is transparent and available. Anyone is welcome to join and contribute. Be minty fresh. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

I can sync about 20 days worth of blocks (about ~58,000 blocks) in less than a day, usually a few hours. Turn it on, leave it running overnight while you sleep, wake up to minted coins. Repeat after 20 days or so. Seems to work good for me. Sometimes I'll leave it running for many days though because minting keep coming in. Remember, if you do the math to divide it out, for every 175,000 mintcoins you own = equivalent of minting 1 Mintcoin per hour, 24 hours a day at 5% rate. Right now the rate is 10% though so it's double. It is like mining, but it's energy efficient minting your investment doesn't break or run out of mining ability. The minting ability keeps going as long as you keep minting. ![Kiss](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/kiss.gif)

Depends how many coins you have. age of coins needs 20 days, after 20 days unlock your wallet and keep it open until they stake. depends how many coins you have but it can take a long time depending on the size

It is a little bit of both. It is sort of a hybrid between total lottery, and timing of when you know to might be able to mint. You have to have your wallet online and synced in order to start minting but the minting cycle for MINT is 20 days, meaning if you just minted today, you will have to wait another 20 days before you can re-mint those same coins. Every 20 days, the same coins will be eligible again for minting, plus whatever coins you minted previously. The term to describe coins that are trying to mint for you are called "mature". Mature coins are coins that have not been spent from the same address on your wallet for over 20 days. Once your coins get to 20 days, when your wallet is open it will tell you in the bottom right hand side you have mature coins and they will try to get accepted on the network based upon your coin weight. Coin weight is determined by how many coins you have on an address * "coin days" which is simply how long they have been sitting in your wallet since the last minting. There is no guarantee you will be the one to stake the next block and get a minting if you wallet is open. If you want to increase your likely-hood and speed of minting, after 20 days, then stack more coins onto 1 address in your wallet. This will increase your coin weight. For example, if you have just like 100 MINT, you probably will not mint anything even after 20 days, but if you have 2 million, then you definitely will. Your quantity of coins is like buying more lottery tickets. If you buy 2 million lottery tickets your going to have a better likely-hood of winning than only 100. I know some people in the past have minted with a balance of 2000 mintcoins or less, but that tends to be not consistent. If you think of it this way, then there is essentially a lottery drawing every 30 seconds (every block). So if you didn't win, your coins will re-try again 30 seconds later. You will have 30 seconds more time added to your coin weight multiplier, so you have even higher coin weight to try win the next block. The reason why Mintcoin has a 20 day minting cycle (waiting period), is to prevent someone with a really high coin balance from just re-staking over and over and over again and hogging all the mintings and nobody else would ever win the block lottery. Many other POS (proof of stake) coins are set up with very short minimum cycles (like 1 day or 4 hours or something, and they have longer block times, which translates to less chances to win). We consider very short minting/staking cycles to be unfair, deceptive, and a scam to those who don't understand how POS coins work. Mintcoin has 20 days * 30 second blocks, which = 57600 chances to win in every 20 day cycle. So once your coins become mature, you can leave your wallet online for the next 20 days straight, to try to win, as any winners will have to wait another 20 days before they could compete against you again. If you stack your coins to a decently big size balance (maybe 2,000,000) and time it by watching your calendar after you minted you can turn your wallet off for a while and then turn it back on after 20 days or so when you know your cycle is coming up and will have a high likelyhood of winning a minting block. That is probably what liveandletlive77 is talking about doing. But just know it is better for the network if we always have people with their wallets connected and synced and we need people to be minting every 30 seconds to keep the network blocks going; so we need minting winners 57600 times in every 20 days just to keep the MINT network running smoothly. This is just to say, don't everybody all go and do this type of thing at once. We need committed nodes, and minters who will like to be online all the time. Also, if you leave your wallet on constantly for minting, it will mint at the soonest possible moment, and you can take advantage of compounding. Another thing to mention is if you were to leave your wallet off for like 6 months and come back and sync it, MINT keeps track of that time and will pay you a higher reward, but you will have lost out on compounded minting from previous cycle periods. If you only mint 2 times per year, you will mint less than if you minted once per month and minted coins from each month will begin minting more coins too. ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) Let us know if you have anymore questions. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2F5Z8EGQq.png&t=665&c=QVBt-vsp10claw) Anyone know who or how to contact Bter to have them get updated information? The website link is to mintcoin.cc which is not the correct website. I think the wallet link is to the wrong Github. Max coins is wrong. It doesn't show the release date information. Should say, Feb 6 2014

Also, I just noticed the coingecko valuation for MINT is currently 0.00000014 and saying up 97.858% in 24 hours. https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/mintcoinIt showing that on the ticker on the front page, and also their website. Seems weirdly high. Where are they pulling their prices?

Just leave your wallet open for a while. It will keep going until successful and should gain more connections too. It's kind of like mining for bitcoin or another proof-of-work coin in the sense that your coinweight is competing vs others for finding the block. Connections shouldn't have too much to do with it but maybe a little bit. Idk too much about the affect connections make on staking. I would say, keep it open as you gain more connections it will probably have a better chance of getting accepted once it generates. In my experience, sometimes it can go fast, and other times it can take a few days before it mints. If it is at the point where you say it is, where it is generating but not accepted, then that means you are very very close to being successful with a minting, but just barely not making it. Just be patient. I think it means that you were going to stake but in just the last second another was coinweight was found that beat yours. in 2 hours, you would have had about 240 trys. There are 2880 trys (blocks) per day, so don't give up. Sounds like you are close to making it.

I like mintcoin!!!!! the minting rewards are percent based (currently 10% APY) The amount you mint is based on the number of matured coins and is percent based. For example: If you have 10,000,000 mature coins and assuming you mint them at the very earliest moment possible on day 20, then your minted coins will be as follows: (10,000,000 * 0.1) / (360 / 20) = 55,555 newly minted coinsIf you keep your coins then the newly minted coins will also begin minting coins after 20 days as well, so you can take advantage of compounding. So assuming you keep all your coins for another 20 days, the next time you mint it will be as follows: (10,055,555 * 0.1) / (360 / 20) = 55,864 newly minted coinsSo after 40 days, if all of your coins minted you would have a total of 10,111,419 MINTUsing the same formula, after 20 more days you would mint 56,174 coins, and so forth... Congrats on minting ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

I wouldn't say there is almost no demand. In a no demand situation, a coin just tanks and that is the end of it. There is demand for mintcoin, but volume is rather low. I think that's because people in mintcoin are just not going to do fraudulent practices of faking volumes. Poloniex has a lot of traders, but that is all they are, they are just going to profit off of you, the real mintcoiner. With them out of the picture, so to speak, then it gives us some good opportunity for good values and price discovery and a chance to get the solid deals, and on coins trading again in the hands of us who really care about minting and mintcoin. I think a lot of coins from poloniex were dumped and it was all really rather unexpected about the delisting; short notice, so the price is currently suppressed. But I don't think it will stay that way. Historically, there is tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of mintcoins bought up, so in the light of the current market conditions, it sounds like a possible opportunity to be buying, or at least buying if the price drops more, especially if you really believe in this coin. buy. The price is cheaper now which is good because it cost less for you to buy and will enable to mint more in the future for a less cost now. And still the minting rate is still at 10% which is sort of a lot, and so from now until December when the rate halves, more and more coins will be minted so maybe even the price will drop even more until then. But come December the rate goes to 5% so not as many new coins to be created so when people buy and save, there will be less other people with coins to sell, so eventually things will come to balance. I have some buy orders in for if it drops even lower, because you never know what people will do. But am also tempted to buy since Mint may never be this cheap again. But hopefully we can have all of the weak hands flush out and completely abandon it, because after that, then we will be poised for the greatest rebound/rise ever. Some trades that look like selling really are buys, and this is important to understand. I am not an expert though, just another fellow person that likes mintcoin. The world is a wicked and deceptive place and it pours into everyplace, even the cryptoworld. There are a lot of things going on in the world right now and IMO we all need to be careful to take care of ourselves, our families, and not be deceived. I think mintcoin is a great coin and has the possibility to still a great store of valued for a long time, and for generations. It is about commitment. I believe Mintcoin is a way to protect against inflation in fiat money etc. This is the kind of shit we are up against... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m1aQ-XGWors https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hYzX3YZoMrshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6oaO1ZTXv8QMay the good Lord Protect You and Yours.
