Can we please make prominent these two key strengths of Blackcoin on the OP?
- 100% proof of stake means no wasteful proof of work mining (bitcoin miners cost over $15 million dollars of electricty every day to run. If Blackcoin was worth the same, it would be a fraction of that).
- 10 second transaction times. A lot of people seem to think it's 60 seconds because that was what it was when the coin was proof of work, but now we are proof of stake
I see topics asking what are the strengths of Blackcoin and I rarely see those above mentioned, when they are pretty key.
NXT is a POS coin that has had these advantages for months, plus much, much more. Please come join us at http://nxtforum.org. Go away, we'd rather stay with the bitcoin toppler... NXT is based on 100% brand new source code + a completely different protocol. It has promise but it needs to stand the test of time - for years like Bitcoin did before it can be held in great confidence. Forks of Bitcoin whilst differing slightly don't have anywhere near as much potential for security issues.

GIANT FUCKING PLUS ONE. I should have posted something because I noticed the same thing. First time I read this thread all I saw was the one-minute block time information. There's a good chance I would have invested when I first read the thread, when the price was around 500 sats, if it was clear that PoS = 10s transactions. Oh well. Still invested at a good time. I believe in Blackcoin for the future. Thank you man. I only say this to boost support for the coin. The more people in the know about our strengths the better

Any help since cryptorush ruined my life?
Take pity on us lowly mortals!
Cryptorush 2.0 is launching soon I have 12.000 Blackcoin there, how much did you have? I had heavy doubts about buying more Blackcoin at Mintpal for 10k and then 15k. Last evening I bought back in at 36k. Only about 3300, but at least I am back in the game. Should have gotten back in earlier. I bought most of my original Blackcoin at 500-1000 range. Cryptorush lost 1,500,000 Blackcoin. That's about 1200 BTC at todays prices... I had 1,700 BC give or take a few. So imagine how pissed I am. I was invested in this coin. My business (brick and mortar) PC shop accepts BC as payment. Everything I had was lost because of stupid cryptorush lost my coins. (probably kept them) I was with this coin from the beginning and got fucked hard. I had 12,000 by the way, so about 10 BTC now. I bought at 500 - 1000 range. My mistake was thinking that these coins only represented a small amount of value (at that time) so I left them on there. To the guy asking how we know they stolen coins got sold off: I don't think we can know for sure. Seems logical though. Also Cryptorush posted the addresses the stolen coins went into, so some people could follow part of the trail.

Go away, we'd rather stay with the bitcoin toppler...
However successful Blackcoin is. It will not 'topple" Bitcoin. Blackcoin is not even anywhere near the first rung of the ladder on challenging Bitcoin's dominance and reserve status in the cryptocurrency economy. Plenty of "crypto's" have trod where BC is treading now and none of them have even made a dent so don't start getting delusions of grandeur. Just ask anyone who's ever tried to get an ETF for a 'crypto' passed through the regulatory authorities. Great rise but lets keep our hair on.

No time for trying fancy things in this market at this time. Best to just sit tight.

I say that in terms of long term hope/potential, and also as a point that NXT will certainly NOT ever do that, nor come close. I do however think we will soon occupy #2. Soon meaning a couple of weeks? Months? ...either way, I make no claims as a savant, just happy to be participating. Haha, I'm also bald as a doorknob, so about the hair - too late.
