Great News!! Following Blackcoin on Twitter. Here's the latest update.

BlackCoin‏ @CoinBlack 

#Blackcoin is now accepted at http://overstock.com ! $BLK

Why burn BlackCoin at all. Give proportionate ERCOIN and move from there. That way, both coins have a chance in case one goes down!

Current Blackcoin holders would have a disproportionate advantage in the distribution if it were done that way though.


Burning 1 BLK essentially just has a value cost of ~$0.26, whether you currently hold BLK or you exchange any other crypto to burn.

If the coins are freely distributed for each blackcoin then everyone would immediately start selling off their Ercoin creating some huge volatile swings, not to mention it opens a huge door to manipulation (buy BLK, sell Ercoin, sell BLK= Profit).   

Burning BLK for Ercoin means BLK doesn't lose any value and neither does Ercoin. The Ercoin holders would be reluctant to sell their Ercoins for cheaper than the BLK they burned. It means that Ercoin starts with a small but also very solid market cap.   

And as Futileresistance points out, anyone can get in. You don't need to be a long time BLK user to just buy BLK for some Ercoin.

Any more information available about the segwit announcement on the blackcoin twitter? Just curious. Haven't seen anything about it on here or slack.

Very nice, that is really good news, hope there are more coming soon

Hello, I saw a news that would be activated segwit on blackcoin? Is this appropriate?

See where BLK currently stands on segwit & LN back on page 1667 of this thread.

am working on a new code, you have to remember there is no central control of Blackcoin
no one can just flip a switch and it is done
new code will have segwit, but activation, signaling, voting, that is on community
there are other new features which don't need chain changes
even LN can be done that way.. for example Yours https://stories.yours.org/
uses their own lightning protocol without segwit..

BLK/BTC is weak again. Only BLK/CNY looks strong.

BLK/BTC is weak again. Only BLK/CNY looks strong.

Blackcoin to usd is fairly steady I think.   Bitcoin rose alot and like a seesaw blk adjusts down but it equates to no change in value.       Though the price is falling nominally, its falling on less volume then it rose which is often taken as a positive going forward.  
Last time we had this price was late May and it was viewed negatively but went on to new highs.   There was trend underlying the bottom prices there so was a fair buy.  Not quite as clear on that now but we do have alot of previous price action in this area.   I will add some blk, its good to diversify from btc which is still debating larger blocks I think.   Another cycle for that is normal.

Yea Ive no idea if Im right but if I draw in a trend for closing daily highs of July obviously declining and into August and I think we are above that negative trend now.   Who knows, its hard to say when BTC is the shark in the paddling pool and anything more slight may not count.   Alt coins generally retracting some on btc strength..

Anyhow the 200 day simple moving average is rising, 0.00008390 and the cautious thing would be to buy on a close above that. ie. buy into strength

Don't worry . Traders seem use this coin to earn btc. They are really love btc and not this one. So the fait/blk is stable and btc/blk is always a joke.

[Decentradical]

You can't really leverage a coin this much without losing money in the long run though. That makes no sense.

Wider use is ultimately key.  Traders have their use but they are not really a backbone to progress for any coin

Blackcoin is ultimately alot easier to use, to be fair bitcoin had a head start of 5 years so you still cant expect it to be as popular.  Unfortunately it takes alot to catch up and some luck to get that kind of success built up long term and obviously theres tons of competition in btc's  trail.
   Anyway Im commentating because the price is still negative but its keeping that trend, so its a declining number sequence but I think its forming a kind of support anyhow.  Im not especially negative on BLK personally, I do find it comparable to May which we saw was capable of switching up.  Bigger picture is good for BLK comparing to 2016 like alot of crypto action and interest this year I find BLK similar and in line

  The ironic thing to a price that keeps going up without stopping is that it represents a form of negative buildup, its actually better for price confirmation to occur to lose sellers at the lower prices so dont be too envious of btc doubling this fast.  Hopefully I will be able to mine various protocols again soon and exchange some to blk regularly, ideally I would want to do that at this level.   A steady increase above the 200 dma would also be ok I guess.   The reason the average BLK price is still now increasing is because we are absorbing and still digesting from big gains at this year start, the price theory being we are more likely to keep gains accumulated gradually

Correct me if i'm mistaken but does this Obsidian coin sound like its cloned from Blackcoin?

I was gonna shoot that down and just say it's just the same name as a BLK development team but delved into it further past that PR puff piece they've put out and read: https://obsidianplatform.com/#about

Yes, it's 'based on Stratis', so they're ICOing a BLK clone.

Sounds like it's had some work done on it though. Shame, as the same work could be done in BLK with consensus and we'd have something more to scream about. It's all about the ICO I'm afraid. Greed.

What is going on with BLK?    Value plummeting....
