Wasn't in bad faith probably. For some people 'IPO' is synonymous with 'launch', they're also usually not aware of the negative connotations the word IPO has within crypto.

I can't believe I mined these when they first came out. That was like 4 years ago 12000 coins. I sold them the same week lol FML.

I had 8 280x on black coin the second it launched, I instamined 50,000 in a day and sold them for 750ish usd.  It tanked to 150ish USD, and I was so happy I sold, but then black coin hired a pump group and created a multipool soon after and my 50,000 coins peaked at what would have been over 20,000USD. sigh.

Also mined the release with 4x 280x, got around 18k coins but didn't sell the pump peak above 90k satoshi. Still holding on to the same coins and bought even more in February this year. Now that the whole industry is becoming more grown up as a whole, it might even reach that previous 2014 price again, this time in a healthy manor though.

Lately i can see many are nostalgic for good old day when we mined coins with GPU-z. Maybe we need that multipool to be revived again, team should consider this? I'm not sure who killed GPU mining ASIC or ICO? Is there a future for POS coins ?

Maybe I'm missing something here but BLK is 100% PoS right now. It can't be mined anymore, only staked.

I'm still impressed how well alt coins in general are holding with higher bitcoin price.  I swear this wasnt often the case often with previous rises of BTC but I remember the receding decline with Mt.gox timeline.  Maybe its speculation on further adoption by new elements in Japan or hopefully wider actual use from not all 'traffic' fitting into bitcoin would be good.

I see a 90 days chart for BLK to Fiat, is there longer dated data then that.

The recent retraction and previous highs are a reaction to .00011596  Fib 38% retracement of 2015 peak prices, another rung of resistance to surpass.  The trend since March is aggressive but matching .00009 on lows possibly for May is still positive

I just had a 7950 and I didnt mine BLK or BC I just remember it as one of many. It was the growth that really was big back then and I didnt catch onto the switch to POS as a big deal so missed the opportunity and I've only traded them.  Of course staked them since then

No Iam aware but I trade stocks and my use predates crypto but I should have remembered its misuse in this sphere.  Just its been a few years and yea of course I remember lots of scams and trust misplaced in overextended launches.  Blackcoin wasnt any of those, I didnt intend that meaning I was speaking roughly as BC was just one of many I noticed in passing.  I think I only mined it as a pool and so I didnt keep any coin mined, it was sold by our head pretty sure I forget alot of details.   I even mined on a 4850 for a month or so while reading up on crypto, very slow and inferior to the 5 series really and I actually have it in basic use now still.    I'll have the newest AMD card soon hopefully, which has 'deep learning' elements and vertical ram not sure how helpful to crypto that might be but BLK should stay POS I agree.  Other coins are copying this standard if anything

BLK was always attractive coin with sporadic small pumps and dumps. And as investment is good on longer periods.

Yes it is POS but when we are talking about mining we actually talking about multipool, which is used to mines other coins and payments were been in Blackcoin, this was fantastic improvement for thet time when we had only colored coins..
BlackCoin always were much more infront of its time.

we ( chainworks industries ( cwi ) ) would happily bring that pool back - if blackcoin devs would submit the code and scripts used for the original pool ...

we have not only the infrastructure - but the team to continue the pools presence with the blackcoin devs advice and direction ...

and it would cost the devs zero for the pool and its ongoing expenses - except to supply the code and scripts ...

time to put the black back in coin ...

This is clear situation and everything about Teams decisions. I think this could be very nice for attracting more members, and for price stability. Also we will send clear signal Balckcoin still kicking.

hello, i'm a fan of blackcoin!! someone could me explain me how to stake?? is there a tutorial about it?  thank you in advance

You need the wallet and to make sure thats upto date.  Store your BLK in that wallet and it will stake after some time of being live and available on the network.   Post a screenshot of the wallet and we'll have a better idea of if you are in the right place, see the OP

I'd be interested to mine on that pool, give it a chance and see where it goes.  If only to test a new card and get back into the scene a little and setups required and end up paid in a coin I want, that could be ideal.

Does seem a very optimistic atmosphere at present, Ive read articles on various blockchains and their potential in national newspapers and news of Japan, etc.   I see some big changes in various prices hopefully it can be of substance

[Decentradical]

With a Blackhalo wallet you can even have an 'open' wallet staking your coins but a secondary key saved 'cold' offline (on paper or whatever).

news of Japan, etc.

It'd be so friggin awesome if other countries followed suit.

I have all the blockchain , my client is up to date. So do i have to leave my client in background? what happens if my computer will reboot? I'll lose my staking reward? i dont get in what way I can have the reward.

download BLK wallet (needs ~15h to sync completely), create some addresses (10-15 or more), give it a good passphrase, make 1 or 2 or 3 backups from your 'wallet.dat' and send coins to one of your addresses, 'unlock' your wallet with your passphrase and wait some hours.

Your stake gets rewarded incrementally as long as your wallet is active. If you reboot your pc you stop the staking but any coins you've gained through that staking up to that point should already have arrived in your wallet (visible in recent transactions). So yeah, if you want to get to most out of it your wallet needs to be permanently online, but turning your pc on and off only halts the process, you don't really lose anything.   

This is why people like to stake on raspberry pi's. Less energy, and less interruption by other processes. Personally I'm not a real fan of using a pi as these things don't necessarily have a long life expectancy. Maybe a modest budget desktop would be the best solution for this.

Blackcoin is still so weak on polo and bittrex.

Blackcoin is still so weak on polo and bittrex.   

Too much ICO crowdsale are going on, and BTC rising, BlackCoin is good, attention from truly good coins is distracted and needs time for people to learn. I bet that majority do not even know that is all about.
