This is to inform that to use Birthday Hash Collisions, the block has to be entirely restructured (a.k.a. When validating, invalidating the previous blocks thus holding the client useless to validate older blocks).

A Swap may be imminent, what is your say if a swap were to take place

Could be a lot of work for little gain. Pool operators can just make a miner and put up another pool. Then all that work is for nothing. I think one month of wallet mining is fine. Pools are the next evolution, then GPU miners, then ASICS. Well.. that depends on what this coin does. If it replaces DASH then yes those things will likely happen and its a good thing they they are happening...

Mining with FreeTrade's algo (Memory Coin) isn't going to be better its going to be worse. Only high end PCS with a lot of memory will get blocks.

You're missing the point of a CPU mineable coin. This is a coin that should be able to be mined by a regular laptop. We don't want GPU miners hogging the hash and dumping and ASICs are ridiculously wasteful. Yes, bitcoin and litecoin are becoming very large contributes to global warming. CPU mineable algorithms are the future. It ensures decentralization by making solo mining, not only a possibility, but required. This is what Satoshi had originally envisioned.
