We're having internal discussions right now regarding a change in the inflation percentage in order to promote mining/staking which would then also provide income for masternodes as well. Max is looking at POS/POW implementations right now. We're also looking at 10% for development as well.

Great suggestions. This could really bring the coin to life.

Yeah, I agree - I think this will really get the coin back on its feet, and get us moving again. Once the core of the upgrades is in place, and we have some more development funding we will make sure to get additional manpower to help support Max as well. I think this is really moving in the right direction.

More important still what is max saying?

If he is wasting time on these other coins with a load of different usernames then that is a very bad indication for the future of quark.

If those allegations are groundless then lets hear what he says. I hope they are groundless.

Wasting time on these projects whilst neglecting an aged and famous coin like quark is foolish.

Let's hope he says something anyway soon. Also if he is 100% going to focus on qrk now i hope he has incentive to see it through.

Thank god Max is very transparent (he showed once with Zoincoin, another coin he created few months ago):

So, you might expect a plausible explanation from Max.

Hmmm.... Initially 20% founders reward with Zoincoin? Could be a nice option for a solution for the development funding of Quark! then you are sure it comes to the right person (an "anonymous" copy coin cloner) Roll Eyes

Two years ago another poster was already aware about the dozens of other coins Max created and therefore he never was and will never be fully engaged with Quark:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=701469.msg10331620#msg10331620

By the way "WillowRosenborg" was already identified/caught as a sockpuppet of Max in this thread:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=260031.msg10331605#msg10331605
Who knows how many more puppets he uses....

Edit 1 WillowRosenborg/MaxGuevarra continued with another accountname: "willowrose"...with this name he continued as a "dev" for Qubitcoin. Seems he is also involved with Pascalcoin and seedbit.

Although this all seems kind of annoying he would waste time on these other projects when the top alt (except) LTC of 2013 with one of the best names QUARK and most famous project is reduced to a shadow of itself...... if it is true anyway.

It is not all bad. The guy can obviously code and has some good skill set. PIVX is using quark algo 4 years later and quark algo is still one of the best.

The main issue with QUARK was that the launch (that i was on) was very very fair. I had only a couple of quad core machines and i mined up a good chunk. Weeks later i tried to rent some quad core servers and mine on them and still then i was able to mine a lot of quark. It was a fair launch but one guy stephenB i think his name was really did have a lot of cpu power and took most of the easy coins.

So the main issue was max did not get enough coins to incentivise working on quark much and it was pretty much undeveloped and not marketed at all by him.

Let's introduce a development tax and fund him to make quark relevant and even rather exciting again.

His biggest flaw is he does not talk much in public nor if you PM him.

Max if you want to bring quark back start talking on here and looking like you are serious.

I hope you have enough quark now and enough sense to see quark is a project that needs to be brought back...

I hope the old foundation members will come back too.
