I'm voting on all these exchanges as often as I can. Great to see GBC rising up the lists Keep mining, keep voting Quite often the swisscex interface doesn't load properly for me - more text than graphic, and I can't vote - do others get the same?

Yes me too. Sometimes you have to refresh and re-login. I think it's a security measure but it doesn't actually say anything unless you refresh.

No matter how many times I refreshed, logged out, refreshed, logged back in, cleared cache, refreshed, used Chromium instead of Firefox, (I even tried Windows and IE - aaargh), it usually still didn't work - maybe worked 1 in 10 times. I contacted swisscex about this and they say there has been a problem but it should be fixed now. It affected people in the UK more than elsewhere apparently. Hopefully it'll stay working now. Hash rate and difficulty rising as well as GBC up the voting charts like a rocket reasonable fast thing

Bittrex exchange might be willing to add GBC if it can get more volume than it did on CryptoAltex (less than 0.5 BTC per day). I have an idea that might help. I don't have the skills to do this myself otherwise I would do it. I'm thinking of a multipool that mines the most profitable coin and exchanges it for GBC - or direct mine GBC if that gives more GBC coins. This would create volume and demand as well as increasing the profile of the coin but would need to be done with assistance from an exchange. Bittrex are definitely interested but we need someone who is able to do this. Adrian could also offer a bounty say 20K GBC (if not I can provide a bounty). Does anybody know of anyone that might be able to do this? Also at no. 1 spot on Comkort Exchange now: https://comkort.com/vote

Spoke to Adrian yesterday and he is currently looking into possibly moving to a less energy hungry/heat generating algorithm such as X11. Nothing 100% but he is looking into it.

This is possible, I believe other coins have also changed algo, would people prefer to have X11? It won't make any difference to coin amount or production time just heat generated etc. If there's enough interest I will start looking at the code to change it.

Have some people asking why POW would continue if there was a multipool, their point being that it should perhaps switch to a POS only model first. I can see where they are coming from. Total coins etc would stay the same, only the method of production would change. Would also help to garner more attention.

Crypto-t: re. change of algo.
Anything that reduces heat and energy use must be a good thing. Using fewer resources means less cost = more profit. I don't know much about the different algos but x11 seems popular, I see there are other x** algos too, are these worth looking at or are they just more complication!? Changing the algo could also enable a re-launch, refresh, re-whatever to further invigorate GBC and popularise the coin.
Soul-eater: re. Multipool idea.
An excellent idea, setting one up is outside my abilities too. Can we get GBC on to an existing multipool? Which ones might be worth contacting, especially once GBC is on the exchanges.

Not really sure. Am doing a bit of research on it. One of the things I have come up against is resistance to taking up a coin that is still in POW and directly mine-able (if that's a word). Will need to look into it more.

Welcome back. We need more people. Difficulty is very low- so definitely worth mining.

A good way to secure the network whilst keeping GPU miners happy could be to move to a Myriad style multi-algorithm. That would be my vote

Great to see more people mining GBC. Spread the hash around a bit - xhash and nonstopdev could do with a few more workers each, that would spread the hash nicely

At the moment I could launch a 51% attack on my own - although it would be kind of pointless given the difficulty is so low but it is always better to be safe.
