Hello, I am new to crypto and heard a lot about blackcoin. It seems interesting.

Could you please explain what is special about blackcoin? Why is the value growing so much and what are some important objectives blackcoin is trying to achieve?

Thanks.

Other people will be able to explain this better, but 2 of the key factors that i can think of off the top of my head are;

-PoS instead of PoW, no miners to dump the prices, eliminating value inflation and miner dumps
-a community that is ripe full of projects and enthusiasm. someone posted the other day, we are the 3rd highest thread in posts on the BitcoinTalk Announcement section, which says a lot.

there is much more, but i'm just a guy who bought in. many more people can enlighten you to the opportunity offered here.

Interesting. So do you think price will continue to go up? What will it be in one year?

I second this question. I am contemplating on purchasing more BC

Others can add to this but I love Blackcoin because its simple.

There is so much your going to miss that is great about blackcoin but the TLDR is:

Fast // 10 sec confirmations, fully confirmed within 10 confirms
Low inflation // 1% annual, no penalty for spending as staking can occur after 8 hours
Tons of interest // top 5 volume coin consistently every day for 6 weeks? you better take notice
A real smart dev, (fixed mintcoin without a request? +1 Rat4)
3 separate investor groups working parallel
Coinkite // We will see how big this is in a few months
Awesome Community leader Soepkip who at the drop of the hat brought in the Dogeofwallst and his fantastic team and built the best multipool on the planet within a week. www.blackcoinpool.com
Blackcoin is not restricted to any regoin
No IPO
No Premine
ASIC have no negative effect on price, only neutral or positive

There are things I'm missing but things move so quick, I wouldn't be surprised to see blackcoin at 1+USD/bc and listed on BTC-E within a month or so.

Yeah, sounds promising.
