I wanted to whole hardheartedly support this coin, but a lack of posts from the dev, the utterly crazy diff, and the lack of pool software has killed this coin before it got started.

GL with it, but I doubt it will go anywhere now


Yeah, I'm about to give up too. It's just MaxCoin v2.o -- Why release something when you've yet to have it all prepared. People much rather wait an additional week to have the coin prepared, fair, and the devs not as busy.

we call this pre-mine  Grin


You guys got to realize that the dev. has a life too. It's not like he is getting paid for developing this. Nor does he have a professional team hired like Maxcoin..you should just appreciate the fact that this coin isn't another shitcoin cloned and changed the name. The dev. does post things..I really don't understand where you get the lack of posts from. He has a life and work. If you'd like to pay 100k a year for him to quit him job and work on this full time, I'm sure he'll have time and devote himself to this. If not, then please don't criticize him from lack of posts because that isn't true. He replies on here when it comes to difficult technical question but leaves it to the community members when questions are general. Plus, (sorry if you didn't know), he said he would update once a week on every Thursdays. Crazy difficulty is normal. It's better with a crazy difficulty coin like Riecoin. Makes it last longer. You don't want a coin like Quark where you can mine almost everything in half a year.. You want a sustainable coin like Datacoin (takes hundreds of year to mine everything), Riecoin (decades), and other various coins that takes a long time so that when the public is notified of cryptocurrency and is accepted by the masses, it will have enough supply.

This coin is an experiment. To have something "perfect" and prepared is asking too much and having too much expectation. Bitcoin wasn't fair, why aren't you complaining about that. Dozens of coin weren't "prepared", but they still made it to the top. Delaying a coin for a week doesn't really help make the coin more "fair" because the problem isn't as simple as you think and could be fixed in a week.

Overall, give the developer time. It hasn't even been 2-3 days since he posted about the updates. Being a developer is tiring and demanding work. If you aren't a full time dev., you can't really understand how overloaded he is right now.

Life is not fair. Deal with it. What's fair to one cannot be fair to another group. This coin is far from pre-mined because the first day output 0 coins.
