The point here is to validate ownership of names, not restrict the total number of names or in the system to an arbitrary upper limit, right?
If so, would it be possible to tie in the difficulty of the proof-of-work to be based on the number of new name requests seen in the past two weeks? That is, the more requests, the easier the difficulty of hashing a block, and the more quickly blocks are generated? POW would also obviously have to be tied into the amount of processing power being thrown at the network as well.
The way it is implemented there is the currency in between. btw: Help needed testing this Namecoin id/ pgp keyserver: https://forum.namecoin.info/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=2476btw2: The rebased client is humming along nicely. There is an external rpc GUI frontend for name operations with the new client available ( nameGUI, includes experimental secure name trading). Even the manage name tabs might come back to the new client. btw3: There is a roadmap now (work in progress) that shows some of things that are currently going on: https://github.com/namecoin/meta/blob/master/roadmap.md |

The Bitcoin software, network, and concept is called "Bitcoin" with a capitalized "B". Bitcoin currency units are called "bitcoins" with a lowercase "b" -- this is often abbreviated BTC.

Looks like the usual pump-and-dump pattern that starts with unrelated altcoin news (here: Ethereum) and later spills over to other altcoins (this time PPC and NMC). However, there could also be some rich investors in Asia capital flow control and Europe Quantitative Easing. They are starting to look for alternative storage of value, and therefore invest in altcoins with a robust infrastructure and an up-to-date Core codebase. |

I have some namecoins, I would rather the coins become commonplace than worry about the price. I invested in NMC because I can see it as a great tool for the future of the Internet.
Hopefully the .bit domain becomes commonplace.

Namecoin is about 6 months behind Bitcoin as far as halving right? So we will get a good indication of the price trend by what Bitcoin does the second half of this year.

ummm i thought it was like 3 years behind bitcoin Yep, I have no idea where I got that number from. Last halving was 2014 so I imagine the next NMC halving is around 2018. |

AFAIK it works ... you need a browser extension and they were working on lightweight version a while back that might be out already. |

It works now to the full extent possible, but domain names registered in Namecoin will never be available to the common person as simply a dot bit unless someone were to spend the $100K to buy the .bit top level registrar name, and someone running the .bit domain still would undermine the decentralized trust that the blockchain provides. With configuration to hook your local computer's DNS to the namecoin blockchain, your local computer can look up namecoin domain names as dot.bit or any other tld you want. There are also various sites on the web that make namecoindomain.otherdomain.com work, or block explorers that allow you to look up the data stored in domain names more easily than running the software yourself. |
