Hi DEV for now we need Plan, coz now this coin have heart attack Wink . Logo ,graphics and text about coin we can do that later .
Maybe you consider this simple plan >
1) change simple scrypt to someyhing else like Heavycoin = " HEFTY1 " ( it will be just for GPU with low fan noise )
2) Pools !!! , for now there is no working pools ( maybe we can start some official pool , I can rent some hosting for this pool )

We just need do everything simple, really easy to use like " plug and play" , after this 2 simple points we can start think about logo, text , and in near future we can start serch for some merchants.

Well I'm not the dev but I can address some of you concerns.

1) We are tossing around ideas about how to bring somethng new to SMC, we have talked about adding PoS.  As for ASIC prevention I'm not sure what the dev thinks about it.  Perhaps in a future release.  From what I have read X11 seems to be the thing but this is not my area of expertise.

2) Cryptotycoons shut down all their pools and left a few days ago.  All UpDaMoon's pools have recently gone down.  I don't know if this is permanent yet.  There are 2 pools that I am going to test out myself and report the results.  Also, I am in contact with other pools trying to work something out.  The difficulty of SmartCoin is currently low enough to solo mine.  That is what I have been doing in the meantime.

Just last week we had 2 perfectly good competing pools so this took me by surprise.  These pools did not close because of SmartCoin, all their pools were closed.  Be assured that I am on it.
