I am seeing lot of positive interest in the X11 based Virtual Coin, but we do need coders & developer to review the code before we could launch. Any volunteer willing to provide feedback/input before the launch. At present it will not be before 2015...2016 a ASIC miner comes out, so future is bright. Users will needs to use SPH-MINER to mine the coin. You can download current source code from https://mega.co.nz/#!zVQwwIbK!IvE-Has6Izr1pTTOCDv_7CRFBdy-U9Nf0YrbvISdI_k It is a re-launch fresh with all new modded code based on X11.
To be open & fair, source code is provided upfront even before the launch, so you guys can review & provide any input to further improve it Once code is stable in next few days, Launch date will be posted at least 2 days in advance.
The current code is designed to be fair to everyone & allows CPU/GPU miners only.
yes, we do need github, if someone with experience would like to volunteer & upload this code, please contact me.
I am with you, this is the right approach, once ASIC Scrypt miner is out do you think scrypt coins like Litecoin will survive? their won't be any difference left between mining bitcoin or litecoin. I see most if not all coins never disclose source before launch so they can privately mine it. At least you are honest, we all can see the source code. I will 100% mine it. I hope more developers join you & further improve the code.
To all user making bad comments, don't just speculate stuff, maybe go through the code & then point out. I know some guys like "vann" have interest in a specific coin, so it is in their interest to bash all other coins. I suggest you stop spreading these rumors. You review the code & then point of issues based on it.

NaMo Coin launch was cancelled due to poor support, I have requested users of my coin to support X11 based coin like yours which happens to be No Premine. I wish you & your Coin team good luck.

It is not launched yet, above is based on older scrypt version which is no longer supported. Just before launch blocks will be reset to 0. Please feel free to download source code & test it.

Looks great, i'm glad you chose X11. I was supporting this coin from the start and had 70000 coins in the old wallet. Too bad they are all worthless. It looks like this version has more support than the old one so good luck! By the way, when we are mining with sph-miner, do we act as if the wallet was darkcoin? like this: sgminer -k darkcoin -o <host>:<port> -u <user> -p <password> Thanks, e1ghtSpace

Virtual Coin will be the future not Litecoin, they are stubborn to adopt o new Scrypt-N.
Virtual Coin = Fair Coin
Lets all give this Coin fair chance to succeed, so far I don't find anything negative about it.

}
May be someone familiar with C++ code can clarify?

May be someone familiar with C++ code can clarify? Appreciate your feedback. I will review the code. That was the reason why it was in beta testing to iron out any issues.

Darkcoin is discussing airdrop at the moment to mitigate the effect of instant mining.
In order to reduce the instant mining, I would suggest proportional block reward according to difficulty in the first few, say 5000 blocks. For example, set the starting difficulty to be 0.01, but the block reward is 1, when the difficulty is increased to 1, the reward is 10. The relationship between block reward and difficulty does not have to be linear.
This will give time to the miners and pools to set up their wallets and mining software. They are not much disadvantaged by coming to the mining just a little bit late.

But then it will disadvantage little solo miners. Like me.

Is the 30 mins block target time too long? 10 mins would be alright.

How about you just cancel the launch of this coin. It's not needed and will be just another one of many crap coins that currently exist.

I have to agree. 30 minutes is a long time. 3 minutes would be good. 10 max. 30 is just way too long.
