How to reach the next retaget. Still a lot of blocks to find and no miners at this high difficulty.
I wonder the price did not crash yet.
On the other hand there are no transfers in and out from and to the exchanges possible.

We should wish that hashco switches for a few hours to CAT but price is not good enough for that

The price didn't crash because there is a real community and people that believes on the coin (I'm not a big holder not even close, but I believe in this coin and I've been supporting catcoin since day one and still doing so more than ever and I'm sure I'm not the only one as you can see from previous replies). the dumpers moved along, and now only faithfull owners left.

Transfering in and out of of exchanges is still possible, but it is pretty slow right now! althought after the next 10 blocks I don't recomment any transfer, as the fork is imminent

If you guys have a better suggestion then by all means we're all ears, I'd much rather implement a permanent fix. But I have to say this: This coin does not currently have the life left in it to survive what would likely be a several month development/deployment process to properly test some of the more complex solutions. Please for the sake of CAT, either put up some ideas, or support one of the already proposed solutions.

Gravity well, this solutions has been mentioned a couple of times, the code is available, proven to work perfectly on othercoins, and I didn't see a single argument against it. But again according to the conversations on #catcoin-dev it seems that we are beyond developpement phase, and we are at the final tests and tweaks before the fork, so for now I don't think it's a good idea to backtrack, but what I want to suggest is once the fork is implemented, the developpment on a final more polished version should be started, including a solutions like that, and fixing any possible errors/issues that might occure in this fork.

Also I have another question that I didn't see mentioned anywhere to this point, which is in regard of insta/pre mining (I think the high diff would prevent the insta mining tho), do you guys have put in place some measure to prevent this ? (I'm following the dev channel and didn't see anything on this regard, maybe I missed it).
