BlackCoin vs NXT

[xychix]

BlackCoin claims to be the first pure PoS coin.
However NXT is around a bit longer and also purely PoS, they also took the effort to build a whole new client (is that a good thing??)

On the other hand, BC is doing something well regarding the prices.

The Nxt bagholders circlejerk is wider, yes.

I see lovers and haters but still.

If NXT has all BC has than why is BC the only one really moving up?
Is it a Pump n dump scam?
Is it because the look n feel is familiar to other e-coins (BTC / LCT)?
Is it because NXT is past the phase already?

Is BlackCoin a NXT Clone?

Not clone lol...

Blackcoin is 1st coin which turn of POW system after dystrybution !...
Other coins like eg Mint are still in POW/POS mix.(maybe 1 coin reward for POW block but allways).
BC transactions are in 5-15s usually. Other POS coins in reality have "POW" part and that is why they are bit slower.

Nxt was distrybuted in other way NXT was 1st POS in system
but Blackcoin was 1st coin distributed by POW system and it turned off POW and switched to pure POS.

BC is not clone NXT.

[mickyd]

Oh sorry man, it was just a question

[mickyd]

Premined? Blackcoin was distributed fairly as Nem?

Well, BC has ZERO premine and it was distributed by PoW mining  hence it's not comparable with "NEM" at all...

We are actually still in the very beginning now and every coin that has any advantage over others will attract a lot of people bezcause market is growing very fast. No need for black PR and fierce competition now. We are like children throwing stones at each other in a glass house...

[mr_random]

Blackcoin is like a bitcoin version of NXT.

NXT is based on completely different codebase to Bitcoin. And the coins were distributed purely by paying for them

Blackcoin there was an initial proof of work mining process to distribute the initial coins.

There are some similarities but also some major differences.

Then Bc is a Bitcoin clone!?  Or is written from scratch?

Pure POS part was writen probably from scratch we don't have any other working coin without POW disabled.

Such starts like Nova/PPC/Mint all have POW part inside parallel to POS system.

Part is written from scratch, and the other part is copied from?

Look at source code.
I probably some parts like others was taken from BTC/LTC/PPC interface initial POW part.
Mostly main code is fresh. I dont have eny experience with git hub:

To my mind the most innovative thing about BC is the bcmultipool.  It's a black hole for scrypt altcoins which mines the most profitable coin, dumps it for BTC, and auto-buys BC.  It is constantly pushing up the bid for BC, and pushing down the bid for all the scrypt coins. 

One can easily understand how this could remove all the marketcap from every scrypt PoW coin, and move it into BC.  It's also a great way to mine BC indirectly, now that the PoW phase is over.
