Introduction

Mjollnircoin is a decentralized digital currency that enables instant payments to anyone in the world; it is a lite version of Bitcoin using a redundant cryptographic function as a proof-of-work algorithm. Mjollnircoin is a people's currency, intended to be efficiently mined with consumer-grade hardware. It is ultra secure, ASIC resistant, Multipool resistant and rare with a total number of 42 million mjollnircoins.
Mjollnircoin uses peer-to-peer technology to operate with no central authority or banks; managing transactions and the issuing of mjollnircoins is carried out collectively by the network. There is no concept of ownership (nobody controls or owns the Mjollnircoin network) and there are no restrictions on who can take part.

another HVC coin?

[djm34]

no just an IPO... 5 lines on the coin, the rest is about IPO

[lubing7683]

We need to secure our investment principal.
Whether is there  a escrow?

[LTCMAXMYR]

HVC is good enough,we do not need a copy

[mjollnircoin]

Mjollnircoin is a HVC clone with a few subtile differences; A part from the parametric coin differences, it has no block reward voting and it has support for coin control
We think that HVC is the better alternative to the (countless) Scrypt clone-coins - The block chain is more secure and mining is much more energy efficient.
HVC simply deserves more siblings.

Also, MNR is already up and running in TestNet since the 6th of April and we have binaries for every major platform - We are confident that the launch will be successfull (everything has been tested and is known to work) This is definitly not an IPO where there is no coin at the end.

The motivation for the IPO is plain and simple; We need your help to fund this project in order to be able to provide long term development, maintenance and support.

With all the fuzz coins, it is harsh environment to launch a honest coin, I understand the reluctancy given the sheer number of scam coins that popup everyday

Currently, I am looking for someone who can provide the Escrow service, it will be added to the original post once found,

I have contacted Escrow.ms and to my pleasure he is willing to provide the Escrow service.

Thanks,

[jztxeno]

no escrow, i am out

[DutchyGn]

no escrow, i am out

you are a big scammer yourself!

[mjollnircoin]

Escrow Service is now available, the original post was edited to reflect the changes.

The name seems unpronouncable. Anyway, good luck with your project!

The name seems unpronouncable.

I dunno what you're talking about!  Here's a guide:

This is more or less a blatent copy of HeavyCoin https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=506774.0

The only real difference is the dropping of the decentralized voting which was probably a good idea.

You say:

Mjollnircoin uses peer-to-peer technology to operate with no central authority or banks; managing transactions and the issuing of mjollnircoins is carried out collectively by the network. There is no concept of ownership (nobody controls or owns the Mjollnircoin network) and there are no restrictions on who can take part.

If this is truly going to be a "community" coin then there should be no IPO or premine.  You really can't have both concepts of "no ownership" and also wanting to control premine/ipo.

There was no "devs" designing this coin as it was "borrowed/copied".  WHY IN THE HELL do you need a premine/IPO regardless of size?
You do not need any bounties as such either, because again, it's already been done for the original coin this was copied from.  Code will only need very slight tweaks. Hardly anything in need of premine or IPO compensation.  None of the reasons given are very good.

If this is going to work as envisioned as a "peer-to-peer" then there should be very little money needed.  If you feel there is a need then run a pool with 1% fee to cover costs.

What I'd suggest instead is to get the community behind the coin with ideas for marketing and such before you even set a date for launch.  Get people lined up in different positions to execute certain things that will be needed.  People who believe in the coin will do this with their own time without compensation if they "believe".
Examples:
Translate this announcement to another language (ask and a community member could possibly do this)
GPU miner (exisiting code from ccminer and cgminer used by HVC will require very minimal code change)
Mobile Wallet (ask and a community member could possibly do this)
First Mining Pool (bounties are not needed as pool operators can charge a fee)
First Block Explorer (very minor changes needed to use HVC block explorers)
Second Mining Pool (bounties are not needed as pool operators can charge a fee)
Second Block Explorer (very minor changes needed to use HVC block explorers)
Third Mining Pool (bounties are not needed as pool operators can charge a fee)

So if you want this to be a community or "peer-to-peer" coin then start it this way from the beginning and bag any notions of premining and IPOs.  Right now in this market it just "screams" SCAM regardless of intention.

Yes, this is a clone of HVC - but not a fork (Mjollnircoin was forked from Vertcoin)

We believe that decentralized block voting does not change anything - It is simply a means of imposing illegitimate control over the currency - by miners (who are not even the majority of the users)
The ability to vote does not positively change anything; This so called democracy is bogus and undemocratic as over half of the voters do not understand the implications of their vote. Instead, only direct action and other alternatives (by the developers) are more likely to result in a better coin.

Also, we have given some thought about your statements on the pre-mine and come to the conclusion that we can easily do without - it merely seemed a good way to reserve funds but once the mining phase has started, but it won't be before long that we'd accumulate the same sum of coins - Therefore, the pre-mine, including any bounty, will be removed entirely for a comeback at a later time

As for the IPO and your counter solution, we do not believe that imposing a 1% fee via a pool will be sufficient to make Mjollnir a sustainable project - And besides, there already is an Investor, canceling it now would be simply too late. Also, as for the other arguments; We do not intend this to be a hobby or classroom project; Relying on the community to complete tasks with no incentives other then "believing in the coin" will not bring many fruits (in innovative terms). On the contrary, submitted works usually suffer from amateurism compared to work on a professional level. Besides, wouldn't a true believer be fully committed to Bitcoin - the one and only, instead of an Alt coin - assuming they have a different motive other than pure profit and pump/dump schemes.  

Still, I appreciated your feed-back and thank you for that,

this is the first clone of heavycoin

How does the hammer hammer itself ?

How can you even dare to call this a scamcoin with your -12 trust rating?

No argument from me on voting.  Just check the HVY forum and you'll see I'm dead against it.

That's great news to hear on the premine.

I understand what you are saying with the IPO and already having an investor involved.  Here is what I'd suggest if you want to keep it.
Eliminate bounties for the 3 pools. They will not need bounties as they will be charging a mining fee and transaction fees, so they already have motivation and don't need bounties.  Use the bounties previously assigned to the pools for something else in the PR/Marketing end of things since you don't have anything there.

HeavyCoin had a big IPO (much larger then what you are doing).  While it may not be fact there is a perception the devs have went into hiding and aren't supporting the coin.  With that said, some of the most likely candidates you will get to mine this coin will come from that community and they sort of feel burnt by the devs for lack of communication.  What I might suggest (and only that) is maybe re-work the escrow of the IPO so funds aren't released to you at launch but X amount at 30 days, 45 days and 60 days assuming you are taking part in the community and making an effort.  Of course bounties could be released directly from escrow.

I don't know if those things are doable at this point or not but these changes would go A LONG WAY I'm sure with the Heavy Coin community right now and build up some additional credibility that is lacking from the devs there.

One other suggestion.  Get all the files uploaded a day or two ahead of time and password protect the files.  Allow people to download them and have them ready.  Then during launch post the password here.  This will help with a smoother launch.

PS what did you fork from Vertcoin?

another HVC coin?
