I'm sorry but please explain, why do you continue to be a strong supporter?
It was designed to be GPU proof. A custom HEFTY1 algorithm. Within a week it was GPU hacked, the developer has all but disappeared except for perhaps a few random posts.
Why I still support HVC? CPU-only, for a moment, ported to GPU and it is 50% lower power consumption than scrypt and your cards run cool. If I am going to expend tangible resources to create an intangible item I want my inputs to be as low as possible. The less I spend on my fixed costs the more profit I make. Almost everyone pays for their power to mine. So, HVC will be more profitable to mine than all other coins at whatever price they happen to be at. We need to slow down the mint phase, drag it out at least a year. Ideally longer. This reduces inflation which is good for value. Scrypt-asics are coming, the effects of which are uncertain at this time, but probably not great for GPU miners. HVC could be the next big coin for those forced out of scrypt mining. The problem is at current rate of mint HVC will be 90% mined in 106 days. Pretty disheartening considering the potential this coin has. Everyone stands to gain so much more with a low block reward. I urge everyone to vote low, but I spam that everywhere, another obnoxious side effect of the vote. I'd love to see the devs lower the max vote, give HVC a longer mint phase trajectory, good for investor confidence. Or the community come together and agree to cap the vote. In the meantime we just keep trying to convert 1024 voters to 1 voters, we are pretty stuck at 550 otherwise. Maybe rolling out that multipool will be beneficial, certainly couldn't hurt. The devs could certainly maintain more of a presence here. It seems a lot of people would appreciate that. You still continue this "propaganda" and don't understand that if people aren't able to spend their HVC in other places than exchanges, this coin is going to die. There is no point in mining HVC now, other than dumping. Do you think that voting low is going to get this coin growing? You're wrong.

I am quite happy with the state of HVC right now. I am stocking coins with this low difficulty but also vote 1 to ensure the future. The rise will come when BTC will go nuts. Yes I am a speculative miner  I really enjoy the cooler mining since summer is starting here, and I think I will never mine scrypt again. I like to invest in coins which differ from the mass. HVC is one of them but of course not the only one.

You are right HVC do not need propaganda but services. Being accepted at coinkite will be a good thing. Acceptance criteria are here : https://coinkite.com/faq/alts. I think HVC match them but it need an equivalent of 25 BTC at current price in HVC (~ 1100 kHVC at current price) Premine + community can surely rise that.

Without action prior to the sustain phase we face a drastic cliff as outlined below, please read. Mint Phase 45,000,000 coins (72 days to 25+ years depending on votes) Limit Phase is fixed at 56 days and will award 63,476 blocks Sustain Phase has 10,000,576 coins and will last from 4.7 years to 38+ years (depending on votes) All of the above is from the website: http://heavycoin.github.io/about.html#decentralised-votingTotal Supply is said to be from 63,000,576 (12.69% premine) to 128,000,000 HVC (6.25% premine) The math says 8,000,000 coins were premined in total. If my understanding is correct: During the limit phase if vote count was 1024 then 64,999,424 coins would be awarded. If vote count is 0 then 0 coins are awarded. 63,000,576 - 45,000,000 - 10,000,576 = 8,000,000 premined coins We are currently at 544 average vote. If this stays the same going into Limit phase then 63,476 blocks * 544 = 34,530,944 coins. 34,530,944 / 56 days / 24 hours per day / 30 blocks per hour = 856.42 block reward. This obviously will not work well dropping to a block reward of at most 8 HVC in the sustain phase. This is a very poor transition because instead of the block reward going down to prepare for the sustain phase it jumped way up making it that much harder for the coin to survive entering the sustain phase. If the vote is at 256 going into limit then: 63,476 blocks * 544 = 16,249,856 coins. / 56/24/30=403.02 block reward is still way to high. If the vote is at 100 going into limit then: 63,476 blocks * 100 = 6,347,600 coins. / 56/24/30=157.43 block reward. If the vote is at 50 going into limit then: 63,476 blocks * 50 = 3,173,800 coins. / 56/24/30=78.71 block reward. If the vote is at 10 going into limit then: 63,476 blocks * 10 = 634,760 coins. / 56/24/30=15.74 block reward. So as you can see EVEN with a vote count as low as 10 average, going into and staying in the limit phase, the block reward will still drop by more then half going into the limit phase. In all honesty even with a GREAT COMMUNITY RALLY I don't see how we'll get the vote down any lower (on average) then 256 which is less then half what it is now. That would have us going from over 400 HVC per block to at MOST 8 HVC in the sustain phase. This coin can't survive any type of drop like that when the sustain phase hits. It just will NOT BE PROFITABLE in any manner to mine and the network will die and thus the coin will too. Unfortunately at present there is no motivation to down vote for miners who don't have any type of decent stake. They want more coins to sell/dump and don't care about long term value. Carlo Voting low extends the time we have to grow the coin. Working out a smooth transition to the sustain phase, and strong community action to get the coin accepted by merchants is what will grow the coin. But not without a little time and long term viability. If you have a better way to try and make the coin a success I'm sure the whole community is ready to hear it.

It's only going to get worse without involvement from the devs to both fix the "timeline" problems and to really kick-start both a marketing campaign and coin acceptance which hasn't happened yet IMHO. With each passing day, it will only get harder and harder to turn this coin around, if even possible. Carlo PS: I hate to say it, but, "Sell-Em if you got Got-Em" while they still have some value.

I've seen a few other 0 votes, but they seem quite rare. The vote 1 camp looks pretty solid. Not sure how to convert 1024 voters to 1 voters. Too bad the long term future of the coin isn't incentive enough to vote low.....

Wasn't someone working on marketing stuff? If anyone wants to step up they should consider looking over ECCoin's ANN. They have a big 'Social' campaign going. If anyone knows people in the community here or elsewhere make a shout out. I hate to see this coin die. Clearly dev put in some thought and time to create a unique coin (kudos), but the community just needs to come together and get things goin. It seems like dev is sticking to his "role" and doing what's needed on the wallet end and leaving the future up to the community.
