my bad, Pre Sale at C-CEX exchange
In August 2014, it was sold at price up to 6000 Sat on day one, dropped to as low as below 100 Sat for only a few days. After that the price never looked back. Apparently, most of the initial 1.4 million Joincoins have changed hands. Additional 0.7 million Joincoins have been mined; the remainder of the 0.7 million Joincoins should have been mined in the coming 6-7 months.
It was delisted @c-cex.
Traded at Bittrex all the time.
I have been fascinated with being able to set up and mine Joincoins with several office PCs during idle hours and have been staying with this kind of CPU-mining for 16 months. During the about initial half a year, the blocks was advancing at mostly below 300 blocks/day, but during the past 6 months, mining activities have been mostly at or above 1450 block/day.
For updated info and vote: http://www.joincoin.org/Please note that: despite the vote, presently only (1)
No change or (2)
Switching to lower POW block-reward of say 0.2 J/block is the possible choice.
Otherwise, with markedly increased difficulty/cost/risk-of-failure to switch to
POS and enormous amount of work-to-do and risk of Switching to
POS+POW (which costs the whole value of the Joincoin crypto), it would be hard to imagine doing in these way. (Unless there is a precedent of seamless switching and very good outcome with any multi-ago crypto.)
===================================
of note,
the dev Love_of_Algo has never come back or responded. Even the helper Pride-C-CEX, looking like the same person (with this idea being rebutted) by the name structure, was only "last active" in January 2015.
A large amount of give-way of Joincoins is still going on @
http://www.multifaucet.tk/index.php?faucet=J. Present Joincoin Faucet balance: 97150.55864 J
====================================
It appears that Joincoins would need to stay "No fril." Even adding things such as mibile wallet would be very hard. Nevertheless, it can be kept stable, useful, certainly interesting with continued lower-reward-POW.
I am working to make Joincoin known, kept, used and traded by people relatively new to the crypto world. Popularity is the key to success.
