i don't understand the voting system; how often do you have to do it, and how it knows how many coins you have.

Since nobody replied :
>How often do you have to vote ?
You just have to vote once per address holding your coin.
Ie: if you send your coin to another address you have to vote again with the new one.

>How it knows how many coins you have?
Like every other bitcoin fork : it's in the blockchain (the database that stock every transactions)

As for the rest, we have to ask us this question :
What are the differences between a grant grabber, and a normal grant ?

If we find those differences then we can start thinking how to implement the grant to defeat the former.

As for the coin dying :
- First I'm not sure it's dying (as in "it never was alive" or "it's just a newborn", you chose).
- Second the coin dying is not because the grant system doesn't work as you expected it would.
Most of the miners doesn't care about it and the rest doesn't understand it, or vice versa !
Yes, I'm sorry to say that, but you suck at marketing FT, and you probably know it. (and from my point of view it's a quality as a human, but anyway...)
In the first announcement, you could have hyped the fact that the grant is good for long term support, and no premine etc...
Then when we saw the grabbers, you could have hyped that anybody with some money could get enough coin to get an interest rate, or mine without a rig (that's a catchy phrase, use it Wink

!
Instead, you went on "strike", which hurt the coin, I think you lost QuantPlus on this one.
And now you are saying the coin is dying, but you didn't give it a chance to raise. Yes I know when you create something you expect it to be successful very quickly, but hey how much time it took Satochi to get bitcoin famous ?
Same for the exchange, it was to early. If not a lot of people are aware of the coin, there won't be a lot of byers.
And I hate to say that, but you need to pump it if you want to establish a stable price.

If you look at SRC for example, it's just a clone, but with lots of hype and people involved.

Enough with this error pointing,
yes your coin is innovative, and we can push it forward.

If you want people to understand voting, you need a step by step tutorial, but even that is not enough.
So you need an interface that will tell people what are their vote at the moment, and make the voting process a one click of a button.

Keep the good work, Rome wasn't build in a day.
