If you think BLK is distributed well, check out IXC.

Ooh that's beautiful. Aren't there any exchange wallets though? I'm not familiar with the coin.

It was merge mined with bitcoin for years, so it is very well distributed among many miners.
It's the first altcoin after namecoin.  Released in 2011!

So? What's the point here? There are coins that for what ever reason are better distributed. Yes possible, but what now?

Yep same here, almost the first coin that I mined. Surely it should be able to reach those glorious heights once more?

Technically yes. It is way undervalued, especially given the fact, that a few shitcoins with no technical advantage at all are above Blackcoin in marketcap.

The coin runs stable, the client just has been updated to bitcoin-lore, the dev team is active and the community as well and we have good fiat buy support in China via BTC38. The price remains rather stable around 0.25 USD (+/- 2 Cent), even when Bitcoin pumps or drops 400 USD in a few hours.

The only issue is that Blackcoin lost some of it's marketing drive over the year. It's now flying beneath the radar. There is no Blackcoin hype anymore, that helped us once being a top 10 coin. There is no other reason than that. And this causes less volume on BTC exchanges (biggest volume for BLK is with CNY pair on BTC38).

A realistic price for Blackcoin could be 1-5 USD per coin, once it gets some attention back.

I agree that it is greatly undervalued and a lot of those shitcoins that are POS use Blackcoin developers work in POS for their coins and their updates to it.  

Marketing is great but we don't need this to over hype BLK to be a Pump and Dump coin.  When it hit 40K sats back in the day it ruined this coin for a lot of new investors that bought towards the top and future investors that saw it as a PnD coin.  We will take steady growth will over PnD hype any day but Blackcoin does need to be put out there a bit more since there is more sideways action now than anything.  We just need to stay away from over hyping the coin.

Who is the current developer?

What Blackcoin needs most is marketcap. We don't need pump and dump and also actually the BTC price should become irrelevant. That means, Blackcoin needs fiat pairs. The greatest volume Blackcoin has is on BTC38 with CNY.

Blackcoin honestly wants to be an alternative to Bitcoin. Blackcoin promotes PoS as a better alternative to PoW. However to become a true alternative, it needs to be taken serious enough, that means serious fiat pairs on more markets. I can buy Blackcoin with fiat but I can not trade it except for a few examples. To be taken serious it however needs attention. Gamblers kept away from Blackcoin for most of the time now, the market support this coin has, that lifted it from 4k-5k Satoshi to 9k-10k, is mainly from China. However the current fiat price for Blackcoin (~0.25 USD) did remain quite stable and is on the same level like it had 3 years ago in the initial peak when it went to 90k satoshi.

People must see this coin as a reliable alternative to Bitcoin and for that it needs attention. Much much more attention. And with attention comes marketcap and with marketcap comes fiat pairs.

It's like some of Blackoin's most advantages are at the same time it's greatest disadvantages in today's market.

Blackcoin has no scam, no rippoff, no lies, no ICO, no whales. Blackcoin is honest and humble. Blackcoin devs keep humble in the background and value the community. We have no snobs and no shills.
Not being the asshole grants you honesty, but doesn't reward you in market attention.

Now Blackcoin certainly donesn't want to become the assholes. However it could maybe become a little more bold, because it has alot to offer.

Bought some BLK to hodl. It seems that it is just catching a movement upwards, a lot of potential.

[coinpreacher]

A small spike is overdue for BLK

[fedmahnkassad]

Place some sells below 40k and thank me later.

[Decentradical]

40k? That's putting BLK over $1.

[ssb883]

- WOW -

I see this coin back raise back to 30 cent. If we see 32, 34 cent -> moon.

It's happening.

[mindphuq]

40k? That's putting BLK over $1.

$1 is still underpriced if you look at Blackcoin copycats on marketcap. Stratis has 30 times greater cap

[ivan1975]

Nice coin. Still alive.
My first mined coin and bring me my first bitcoin.

is there a way to buy BLK with cash (money, debit or credit card)? Thanks in advance!!

Depends on where your living at atm.  See the main Blackcoin website http://blackcoin.co/ at the very bottom above the wallet downloads it shows what exchanges you can buy Blackcoin with fiat.  Hopes this helps

BEING A PRE MULTI POOL BUYER IN 2014 AND A COMMUNITY MEMBER OF BC IN THE EARLY DAYS it saddens me to see so much noob talk in the forum.

noob talk like : This price, that floor, this whale . STFU please

Blackcoin just released a HUGE update that is about to mature and create a whole different paradigm for this sleeping beauty and you my friends are polluting the forum with incessant squabble about nothing diverting potential new community members who are looking to see if there is any reason behind the price action.

BLACK COIN DEV TWITTER ON THE 2ND OF JUNE : Friendly reminder that we're about to be the first #cryptocurrency to marry #Bitcoin core 0.12 to a #PoS coin 😁

https://twitter.com/CoinBlack/status/870360259092652032
BLACK COIN IS THE MOTHER OF ALL POS COIN

Black Coin is the first POS coin and also it will be the first coin to be able to integrate with Bitcoin Core. Not only does it have BLACK HALO smart contract system but now it is compatible with most blockchain technologies allowing for new platforms to be built on it.

I remember when BC went from sub 1k sats to 100k within weeks. I remember when crypto rush shit exchange got hacked also and all the bcs was stolen also lol

There were whales then and there are whales now, see some of the wallet holdings.

This BC run on Polo shows that POLO volume with 40k active users at many times is choking the supply of BC on Polo. Polo was closely following btc38 BC/BTC but now its breaking lose and getting very bullish as new community members see the definition of CONSISTENCY.

BC IS one of the few SUB 10 M cap alts that is heavily influenced by CHINESE market makers. The volume of btc38 is currently more than that of Polo's but that will soon change. In 2015 and 2016 there were several days were BC had huge runs of fake/real volume on Jubi (millions of $). This coin never died and its about to get the recognition it deserves and form a huge community very soon.

This dev team was in the trenches during the death days of 2015 when most coins did not survive. The ones that did you see around you like DASH, XMR etcetera.. BC is about to rocket to the league of a major

BC is mother of all POS, strat bows down to BC core. Lets build a community, create productive TECH based discussion - and we can help to contribute to the efforts of the dev team and make this a top 20 coin

You are right with most of what you say, but Blackcoin also was always noob firendly. We welcome any new user and most questions will also be answered. Of course it's difficult to answer questions about the price because in crypto markets it's hard to predict where the price goes.

The technical details about Blackcoin and it's benefits however are not easy to understand for everyone. But people need to understand why PoW is flawed and they're better off with PoS. While PoW is not flawed in terms of security (the theoretical security issues in both are similar), it has alot of practical obstacles. When sometime in the future for instance the block reward in Bitcoin becomes so low, that miners merely get the transaction fees only, the transaction fees will rise even more. The price for a transaction is already high which makes Bitcoin totally impractical for transfer of smaller amounts, and it will grow even more in the future. In a PoS system the fees can always remain the same, because the energy consumption doesn't increase exponentially. In fact, the more people participate in staking, the faster and the more decentral blocks are created.

That being said, there is a possibility when Bitcoin will become impractical to use for a greater audience and any other PoW-coin basically faces the same issues. Increasing the blocksize only delays the issue but does not solve it.

At this point coins like Blackcoin need to be there to offer an alternative. However to be a true alternative, we need more fiat pairs. It's important that we are not only able to buy Blackcoin with fiat money but also exchange Blackcoin back into fiat easily. That is one very important step to be a serious coin and a serious alternative to other cryptocurrencies. If anyone wants to offer a service or product for Blackcoin, they will want to pay their rent and their salaries and need to transfer Blackcoin back into real world fiat money to do so.

Blackcoin was already accepted by alot of businesses, but a few of them closed and vanished over the last three years. Blackcoin needs a comeback and is still not there. There's still much to do to increase acceptance.

Blackcoin has a huge potential, technologically and practically, but we need to do more work on this.

[coinpreacher]

In europe, anycoindirect.eu is offering BLK for €, I bought mine over them long (very long ....) time ago. anycoindirect should be mentioned at the BLK homepage.

I almost lost my faith in blackcoin, this coin was so undervalued. It is hard to see fun coins like doge rise or "attention tokens" grab millions in a second. Developers, just keep up the good work. You can change this coin to a million dollar thing, if you finish the trading plattform and promote it.
