SkrittCoin (SKTC) is a POW currency based on an april fools post from Guild Wars 2, an MMORPG game by ArenaNet.
A minigame was created by user that_shaman on Reddit and can be viewed and played here: https://www.skrittcoin.org/
You can also find his original reddit thread at https://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/88pd97/presenting_skrittcoin_tyrias_first_cryptocurrency/

I decided to created a scrypt based coin and present it to the community both on bitcointalk and reddit.
This is meant to be lighthearted, so have fun with it. I went ahead and mined 1% of the coins ahead of time so I would have some to hand out,
and who knows, I may even recoup my server hosting costs some day Smiley
As for a use case, well it could be used to trade for just about anything, up to the community of that one.

Some specifications:
Block time-5min
Difficulty retarget-10min
coin reward per block-725
Total coin supply-30757576
Algo-Scrypt
# of confirmations for transaction verification-6
mined coin maturity-20 confirmations
RPC port-35902
P2P port-35901
