I'm starting a coin. I want this to be what the community wants, as a result I am asking for opinions. What kind of coin would you like to see? What would you like the algo to be?- Scrypt
- SHA-256
- Scrypt-Jane
- Other (Specify)
What would you like to see added to a crypto?
What amount of premine is fair for marketing?
What would make you pick this over other cryptos?
Would you be willing to join the team?[/list]

For a coin to interest me, it'd have to offer some functionality over existing coins. Memes, names, logos are really meaningless. As for a premine, how about try no premine at all?
Functionality would either be in the code or how the coin is used or mined.
A random example -- someone just released a movie coin, and the whole selling point is it will be used for movie related projects. And that is complete nonsense. Any coin would work for such a purpose.
If instead they released it, said it was POS, and rewards were actual online movie rentals through a well known company (vudo, mgo, anyone who won't go out of business next month)... then it'd be unique and interesting and actually serve some purpose.
Huntercoin is another example of something unique. If a coin had a better game for mining, it could do very decently. Chesscoin would be nice and something I expect a lot of people would find interesting.
If you plan to just make a clone coin, using an automated coin maker thingy... there is no way to make it something that the community would actually want.

So I see you recommend an innovative coin incorporating POS that has long term functionality. About the premine however, how could the coin be marketed with no funds?

Just my take on the matter - from what I've seen there is a point of diminishing terms regarding premines.... too little and it has no effect, too much and people will avoid it. General rule is to stick with around the amount of coins that will be generated within the first day. - The CoinDev.io Team

I never saw it like that. Makes sense. What about the algo? I'm thinking of something along the lines of a scrypt-jane so everyone can join with minimal hardware but it's harder to use s new people won't get it. Might use scrypt with a pos. Any suggestion?

post your programming experience and I'll give you suggestions. ::crickets:: 2 years of VB 2 years of SAS Beginner in CS I'm willing to learn from whoever wants to teach I would invest more time in your studies before making a new coin. I have 15 years of application development experience, I'm a master application architect at a financial firm with a background at C, C++, Java, C#, Ruby, Fortran, COBOL, Assembly, etc. You need to really understand what you are developing before you design a new cryptocurrency that is innovative and has utility. Otherwise you will just create another nameless coin that will probably end up dead. You have better opportunities developing applications for existing currencies that trying your hand at yet another coin.

It's worth considering

No two years means I took formal classes. Beginner means I'm reading up on it. Please be polite and don't make assumptions if you obviously don't know much
