Nope, this wasn't a clean launch.

Crunch Harder had a working copy of the source code.

Other pools did not. Your own Block Explorer didn't work and neither did an alternate one created from the Github source.

You changed the code six hours ago and now claim it works.

Good luck with your coin. Grin

P.S. OP if you're really from Nigeria you should at least be mildly upset by Crunch Harder's home page. He's representing your coin - which supposedly represents the nation of Nigeria. Why would you want your coin associated with the racist 'scammer' stereotype that prevails for your nation?

This thread just serves as another glaring reminder that the 'Open Source' tenets that made crypto-currency great are routinely being ignored by the people involved in launches.

I'll get off my soapbox now, because I'm no 'crusader' but hopefully aspiring devs will see this thread and realize the need to communicate much better with a community that is here to support your efforts.

Ok, please stop spreading FUD. All the sources were the same, please check the commits for what was actually changed. Both TalesfromtheScrypt and Crunch Harder were working at launch, it's just Crunch Harder was listed first on our OP so they got all the traffic. I've moved them down the list now.

I'm not upset by the pictures posted on Crunch Harder or on Tales of the Scrypt pools. They are meant to be sarcastic. Sorry you had difficulty installing the code. Under 0.9.0 Bitcoin Core, things work differently than usual. All the latest and greatest features are in this coin and I wouldn't be surprised if other altcoins actually fork NigeriaCoin code.

majorminers is right.

Crunch Harder had access to the source before everyone else.

I came to #nigeriacoin on IRC and asked for the source 15 mins before launch:

<@nigeriacoin> hello
source ?
<@nigeriacoin> to be released on github at launch

AND

nigeriacoin one question
how come crunchharder is mining before the source was even released ?
the source is available
the pool was mining on testnet before

So there wasn't any fuckin clean launch as you're trying to suggest.

I closed the ngc.hashing.at pool so you can remove it from the list ... not gonna support this realshitcoin.

Thanks for the support. As you're probably noticing, these bad practices at launch are happening more often and they're hurting everyone.

They make us all look bad and we have to waste time/money supporting coins with no true support from the 'developers.'
