Three words for 42.

I'm inclined to agree with this. I'm just looking at ProsperCoin which is supposed to implement KGW, to see how that pans out ...
If I'm not mistaken, KGW has been submitted as a pull request to the Git, and I believe Hendo was planning to include it.
Excellent, that should help with the difficulty and get some 42 flowing.
We have been working on this with some help from defaced since he has implemented it on Franko ..
If this works out, we will have a mandatory update with the new changes in affect, and will validate 42 coin's value back to normal.
