It would be good if the devs did chip in now and again to update this thread with either some news, if there is some, or at least a response to posts put here by people interested in the GBCoin.
We, the miners, can help by at least voting for GBC to be included on one of the exchanges. I'll be continuing to vote for GBC to be added to the swisscex and allcoin exchanges, at some point it would be good to 'rush' the coin to the top of the list by using some Bitcoins at an opportune time.
I will continue to mine GBC as I believe that, despite the quietness of the devs at the moment, this coin has a future in the future (
). I'm still watching and waiting to see how much affect the current batch (and next batches) of ASICs have on the more established coins. Until it is known what this does to other coins using whatever method (SHA256, scrypt, etc.) I think any alt coin that isn't affected by a big hike in difficulty can increase its value and desirability to miners - I like to see coins being earned regularly rather than extremely small points of coins per day.
There aren't many crypto currencies you can use to buy goods or services currently, whatever coins we choose to mine it'll always be a gamble as to which ones succeed and which don't. There are some oddly named coins out there accompanied by large doses of BS as to where its going and what you'll be able to do with it. All crypto currencies are young, even the experiment called Bitcoin! So picking winners now, next year or in five years is extremely hard.
As the difficulty on GBC drops the coins flow faster I'll be taking my chances mining the coin for a good while longer. At some point the coin will be trading on an exchange even if it takes weeks or months.
