I agree with the concerns of others on the state of this coin.

It would not be hard to fix the mining issue so I cannot understand why it is not being done. Hard fork in 50 or 100 blocks and add KGW or DGW, done. At the moment it seems leaving it broken is the intent of the devs.

I fear if it is not fixed soon it will be too late. Sad

Good points but with one fatal flaw. The devs want the emission of the coin to match the demand of the coin. Currently there is almost zero demand and therefore almost zero emission. However that in itself is also a fatal flaw because by the time they actually get past their discussion groups and roadmaps and actually implement *Something* useful, the crypto world will have left BTM behind and moved onto something else. There are already other coins taking the basic premise behind BTM and running with it, at least one of them will "out BTM" BTM by simply being more proactive.

Guys/Dev team. We need an algo that keeps the blocks moving even at reduced rewards. I'd rather see 0.2 BTM every 2 minutes than 20 BTM every 12 hours or so. Make it happen like yesterday!

KGW and DGW are flawed algos. DIGI would be my pick (with variable block reward based on hashrate). If that is past your expertise, I have it on very good authority that the DIGI team are more than happy to help out.

I really dont think mining should be changed before marking comes out. It was a day away in december before mark got sick.

If the coin parameters change, before we see core marking, people will switch to another coin.
