SFR UpdateUpdated: 09 September 2016SFR the coin which just won't die for some reason. It's been 5 months since my last update, nothings happened at all, all but 1 remaining Blake pool has been taken offline, but the coin still works for some reason! Amazing.
Anyway, here we go with the latest update...

The great strength of multi-algo coins is that they are not dependent on only 1 hashing method. For instance, although 3 algorithms are in poor health and not mined, 2 have been in continuous
good ok health since the coin was launched, meaning blocks still generate, the blockchain keeps moving, and transactions get processed. Multi-algo coins are extremely resilient and have always been under appreciated. Saffroncoin is probably the best one out there, despite the lack of progress from the dev in recent
months years and a low price, it is still fundamentally a solid coin, designed by a skilled developer, and therefore doesn't die when it should have long ago.
