Just thought of an interesting idea:
A PMC mining contest @ Hashcows
Prizes:
Most PMC earned in a month: 1 BTC
Second Most earned in a month: 0.5 BTC
Third Most earned in a month: 0.25 BTC
Random prize to ANYONE who earned at least 100 PMC: 0.25 BTC
( Yes, I said BTC not PMC )
This will require stats from 'nearmiss' of Hascows...
Think about this for a moment....
What would happen if suddenly a BUNCH of folks started choosing a PMC payout?
It's a great idea, but who is going to fund it? If you would want to fund it with PMC you need to sell 15-20k PMC, which would probably crash the price.
What about a private sale of this kind of PMC? To avoid crashing the price on Poloniex... Or a timed sale on Poloniex to increase volume..
