Around 1 year ago on March 24, 2013 Bitcoin's difficulty was 6,695,826. Curecoin's current difficulty is 6,369,452. Our difficulty is around what Bitcoin was at only 13 months ago!. And Curecoin has only been out for 2 weeks.
Let's catch up guys, Curecoin the true 3.0 cryptocurrency!

Difficultly =/= Same
The difficulty is 1 year behind bitcoin, not the entire coin.

what is unique about curecoin that sets it out amongst the hundreds of other alt coins?

the transaction and coin side is the same but instead of you guys just doing worthless calculations to get your coins it uses the calculations to do something useful - finding a cure for major diseases through protein folding. |

Except that is not true. Only the "worthless calculations" secure the network. Unrelated to that the protocol pays non-miners to perform protein folding however that contributes nothing to securing the network. |

The network is secure and you help the world. Nothing is wrong with it but the helping the world doesn't secure the network. The network is LESS secure than it would be if miners (the ones actually securing the network received all the compensation). Everything else being equal the network will be easier and cheaper to attack. Secure isn't a binary value. It isn't secure vs insecure. It is how much security the network has, how much it would cost an attacker to attack it. Any revenue diverted from security means the network will be less secure. |

Except their is a limit to how secure you need the network to be. Bitcoin probably doesn't have a noticeably less risk of attack now than it did when it was GPU mined in fact the risk may even be higher now because of large companies with huge networks. |

Except their is a limit to how secure you need the network to be. I don't think most people would agree. Nobody knows for sure how secure is secure enough. Being a little too secure never hurt anyone but being a little short of secure enough would be bad. Still even if you are right and CureCoin has enough security (it doesn't the 51% attack costs are negligible) then it simply has a higher inflation rate (and thus loss of purchasing power) for miners than under a similar system where free coins weren't handed out. Folding does nothing to secure the network, it is simply free coins that reduce the value of the coins earned by miners. |

Except they are not free coins because they still need to be earned through folding. I know folding does nothing to secure the network, but it helps put meaning behind the coin to know that 80% of each coin you own was generated by computers working to cure major diseases. |

Though I am very enthusiastic of curecoin, the speed of mining hardware was not the same and has grown since the date you state, I believe there should be more talk of curecoin as it has achieved something significant but let's not exaggerate and have it come back as just hype. LET'S GO CURECOIN |

Bitcoin helps the world by releasing the masses from oppression of ruling elite.
Shitcoin however well meaning actually in the big picture damage that progress.
if you cared about the world generally you would stop releasing shitcoins like curecoin.

I am not aware of Curecoin and curious how much its price now. I wonder if it will be worth it to mine Curecoin using mining services like Genesis mining with its current value.

And the price of BTC & Cure are both increasing some while the amount of curecoin you get a day is holding kind stable. |
