Ah that's pretty funny. I saw that there was a @QuebecCoin twitter when I made my twitter account and that it was related to crypto. But you didn't have a picture up earlier today or any tweets (Your only 2 tweets are from 1hour ago) . I think you saw my release and panicked a bit and rushed out to talk to me? It looks like you were taking your time before I announced my coin to be honest.
I have a fully working X11 coin with DarkGravityWave difficulty readjustment, a fully working mobile responsive website which is ready and looks really good, all other social media sites are already set up as well. The Québecoin I'm releasing is cutting edge and has every feature to make it desirable to miners, investors and Québecers. I already have a great exchange and mining pools coming up too.
I'll have to ask you to not use QBC as it as already taken by my Québecoin (which is already announced of course). You might have had the idea as well and that's ok. Unfortunately your coin has a few major flaws. SHA256 is going to be mined exclusively by ASICs, almost no one on this forum will want to mine your coin. Second of all, you have the most basic difficulty readjustment available, once every 1440 blocks + SHA256 means your coin is going to get raped as soon as it's released. an ASIC miner will take every block for the first 1440 blocks and drive the difficulty through the roof for everyone else after that. Your coin is a very basic bitcoin clone and I don't think that's what's good for Québec.
If you are unhappy because I released Québecoin first, I would suggest instead helping me out and having one good Québecoin for everyone! You can contact me at
jpgagnon@qbc.io and we'll be able to promote Québecoin together.
No rushing here. I've been working on this project for the last 2 months. I saw your post just before making my announcement actually...just missed by a couple of hours it looks like. Throwing up a template website shouldn't take too long.
But that being said, maybe your coin is better, I don't know...I am actually not familiar with its technology.
But some things sound off to me, like the IPO? Selling pre-mined coin for BTC?? 1% of total coins up to date: is a lot of coins! Trust me I do understand the amount of energy and money that can go into launching an Altcoin...but asking for money for pre-mine, just doesn't sound like a good idea and can quickly be turned into to a Scam topic. Plus 50% pre-mine, well the Auroracoin missed that one!
But I do believe that if QuebecCoin is to work that it was to have a community behind it. No reason to be fitting here. Being the creator or a miner shouldn't change the view. So ya, I will PM and see how we can help each other. Any QuebecCoin meetups planned?
