keep in mind people, once the pool (or pools) go public, the price will skyrocket again.


4k right now maybe be considered high for those that currently want to buy in....but it's a bargain @ right now....dont wait until the pool is in operation. As BC's history shows, these low prices may show up once or twice and they will be gone for good.... so get them while you still have $$$ available.....

Welcome micryon. 
How is that new coin project going ?

[mr_random]

Blackcoin has highest market cap of any bitcoin based coin which is pure proof of stake. This is a big strength too.

I expect over the coming year the media to bring more and more attention to how much money is wasted mining bitcoin everyday (>$15 million of electricity).

Blackcoin is in a great position and is very undervalued at present. We should be over 10 million market cap easy. That's 7 times higher price. When you factor in we're not going to have proof of work mined coins being constantly dumped on the market every day, the sky is the limit for this coin imo providing we market it correctly and no technical glitches occur with pure proof of stake.

Coins which don't have new coins being dumped on the market tend to go high up in the market cap ranks once they are established (ripple, nxt, mastercoin etc)

Agreed overall, however the three examples you mention had the advantage of massive premine/VC investment (in the case of Ripple 100% 'premine'). It will therefore be even more noteworthy to see how Blackcoin evolves, which I expect it to, into a top 5 coin.

If anyone is interested in throwing a small amount of hash at something, this is my BC paying P2Pool project I am working on: http://cryptoalts.com/index.php

It's not profit switching as that's just over my head given the time I have to work on this (once it's working 100% automated I may look into profit switching), but my goal is to get a few of these nodes setup in different geographical locations (NA west, NA east, EU, Australia, etc) as failovers to the larger pools to help support the "BC mining" network.

The first test went well. The second one had some stuff added that turned out buggy and needed fixing. The third test is running now, and hopefully the bugs from test number two are sorted. Miners are getting paid their share in BC.

okay folks. So now that we've smoothed out the bumps, we're ready for round 2, and we're open to suggestions as to how to use our platform to promote BlackCoin. Afaik we're at this point the largest merchant other than an exchange doing business in the space.

We chose BlackCoin for a reason, which I think is pretty obvious to everyone here. But the coin does need wider exposure. That's where I think we can help.

We would be happy to set something up like a BlackCoin-only deposit bonus, or a BlackCoin poker tournament where coins get mixed and people get to know each other. Tell us what you want, and we will be happy to make the casino a social space for the fledgling community -- as well as give something back.

One thing we've considered is a discount for our existing Bitcoin users who decide to withdraw in BlackCoin -- effectively an added incentive. But there are a lot of things that can be done.

Everyone should feel free to PM me with thoughts and we wil announce something later in the week once we've sorted through the possibilities. We like this coin a lot and we're proud to be representing it!

just gone in, Im in uk so im getting a few rejects but Im not too bothered right now, Im sure when more nodes go up my mining will improve.

We are added to Austin Global Exchange. This one is new but with great future

I think a poker tournament will be great.

Agree with a poker tournament, maybe some bonus on black jack would be nice also!! Great to see you supporting this coin

What about some free blackcoins as introduction for people depositing bitcoin?

Yes doing really good.
Real stable rise all day except for a few moments, no typical pump and dump.
+ the community keeps getting bigger everyday
Can't wait on what tomorrow will bring.

Oh and don't forget the pools aren't even up yet.

Nice a BlackCoin Casino.  

good news, superb ideas, great community, excellent marketing. what else do we need on this coin. BlackCoin will make history, or more like a living legend.

I just realized I accidentally had the front-end disabled to updates (was working on something), sorry about that to anyone who may have sent in hashes in the past hour!  

It's turned on again and when you send in a miner it should take no longer than 2 minutes to show up and up to 5-10 minutes to read the full hash rate.

From brief testing, EU has been getting about ~8-12% DOA to the node. Australia has been at ~15%. USA is fine, usually 2-7%.

Interesting fact is that the top 100 wallets hold ~50% of the coins.  I guess this is similar to Bitcoin and Litecoin in the early days and to a lesser extent now.  There seems to be plenty of demand for this coin even at 4000+ sat levels, but also people are willing to sell and take profits at this level.  I must admit I kicked myself for not selling a couple of days ago when it spiked to 4300 as I could have rebought back in at 2500.

I am so surprised that Cryptsy haven't listed this coin yet with the huge volumes it is getting on Mintpal.

Also take a look at Darkcoin, this coin is a sleeping giant and I hold a few blocks worth for long term, but there seems to be no volume to it at the moment.  I think this is because miners are stockpiling.  It is definitely bucking the trend of most of the altcoins on the market (downward trend straight to the bottom).   HeavyCoin also.

Hi all, glad to see the coin's doing well.

Just wondering if anybody else has had an issue with not being able to see their full balance in the BC wallet? I know the amount of coin's getting staked is taken out of your balance and sit's in the 'Stake area' until the process is done, but I'm somehow missing ~1000 coins from my wallet completely.

I mined these in the first week and have not touched them since, a few days ago the balance was 10498 BC, now it is 9789 like what you see here:

Do I have something to worry about?
