Too late. SCGuild already has way more than 51% power. All they would have to do is turn off hashing for one day, difficulty will plummet, then we can get back to getting several blocks a minute.

SCGuild, what do you say? Will you turn off the pool for a day?

It's not actually too big a problem if they do that, faster blocks is fine. SolidCoin is only a week and a half old, once it starts gaining more traction due to my development changes there will be more stability in the mining power. What we do know is that in under a week we have gone from 1.2 THash, or 11% of the BTC network to 300GHash and SolidCoin is still flying. BTC would be dead, as we saw with NMC, Ixcoin and I0coin.

So yes SC may not be "perfect" in every way but those trying to suggest it's not better than BTC are living in lala land.
