So now it's pretty apparent that the ASIC idea was bunk and we will drop the idea of development completely and focus on an entirely GPU centric coin.
So after coming to that conclusion, I have read up on scrypt-n and while I like the idea, it also seems that after a few N increases that the coin will become a CPU profitable coin, which would again put the GPU on the sidelines. I will start the search to see if there is a better solution, but if any one else finds one before I do please feel free to share in this thread.
The N increase can be years down the road... just factor on a N ramp that parallels moores law and you should be fine. (i.e. doubles every 2.5 years)

I updated with a new poll. Please vote so that I can estimate the sales volume to stock a decent amount of GPUs for the grand opening of the store front, when the time comes. I wouldn't be put off if I stock 30 and only sell one every other day, but I would not like to be in the situation where I have 50 in stock and sell out in an hour. I want this to go as smooth as possible so that customers are not stuck with just another store that you have to wait three weeks for a back order.

So you can already mine this with ASIC? Was promising in the title... this needs to be a Vertcoin type scrypt.

My favorite one! And it looks great! =) The symbiosis of fiat and cryptos! ) Me, as a cyberdoge, really happy! ) This coin is GPU forged, and it has a lot power inside! So our scientist doges should use it as a power source in their experiments and stuff! =) Such great! cyberdoge

So 3% premined. Well done! 3% premine now is a trend.
Yeah, i noticed that as well. I stay away from these premined coins. So many other great coins to mine with my hardware.

I will give my server a call later today to see if there are any issues they can take care of. If you wish to join in the IPO just send an e-mail to ipo@gpucoin.net and follow the responding instructions.

The main difference is that GPU Coin will be supplying a store front where people can trade the coins in for real world items. If I stock just the amount of GPU's voted for in the last hour I would need about $30,000 out of pocket. These costs will be covered by the IPO, and the more money net the cheaper I can get the GPUs from my distributor. I really wish I had that kind of money laying around so I wouldn't need the IPO, but I just simply don't.

Client is functional, the premine for IPO and future development is finished. There will be no more mining of any sort until the release date of March 02 17:00 EST. Bounties will be posted in the opening post and will be available as soon as the coin goes public.

International shipping at reasonable prices?
We do intend to ship internationally, we just have to find the most cost effective service. You don't have to find anything, it's USPS Priority mail. Everything else is expensive and a Custom's nightmare.

hi i am willing to invest some btc in to this but as i can see from your website you have only 4 investors and a total of something like 0.2 btc invested. if i matched that i would then take 50% of ipo coins and i would feel harsh for doing so but i also want to give you as much in the way of btc as with this ammount so far your stock will be 1 adm a4 apu and that is all lmao! also i see yo would be looking at international shipping. if you required i could see about helping you there as a european reseller per say. i.e you have your partners in the us and whom ever you source your gpus from ship them to the uk for eu sale. or possibly if i was to offer opening a shop i.e i purchase gpus from a place i use to build rigs at cheap prices and pass on the benefits but this would require some investment on my/comunitys part! hope this coin growns and becomes what you wish it to be. regards eager investor

Only for dying coins. We mined 3% to help the coin, not hinder it. The IPO funds are going to be put directly into GPU stock so that we have access and can sell at cheaper prices than even Newegg, and the rest will be used for bounties, such as a Mac wallet and any translations, to help the coin expand. I heard this recently.. yep, was pandacoin 1 week and was dead! edit: if true, i like the idea
