I think nobody cant\want do that merge mining. This is only talks, but for last monthes do nothing, speek nothing. We, small investors, must take power by own hands, without hope to anybody. Our luck in our hands.
Need some protect against multipool, last diff adjustments take few days.

PS. Not Lesni but Lesnik

I agree. If we want to see Emerald grow and prosper, it is up to us. There is great potential in this coin if there are a few tweaks and developments implemented.

BTW... Lesnik's new window's wallet works great. If you haven't downloaded it, yet; I would highly recommend it. It is a great improvement over the old (v1.3) one.

First, there needs to be a new thread started to show the re-emergence of Emerald. A new thread will allow for all updates to be posted on the main page instead of being hidden somewhere on one of the later pages. People like updates but they don't like to have to dig and search through the entire thread to find them.

Next, we should really get a better theme for the website. I can knock one out in a day or two if anyone is interested in having a better web presence.

Next there should probably be a new logo created. The image of the gem is fine, but we need to show that the coin is moving on from the old developer and is offering something new.

The Emerald core needs to be forked to implement a better difficulty adjustment to even out the peaks and valleys. DGW, digishield, etc would be better, but there is probably a better solution in some type of custom diff schedule that better fits the fast block times of Emerald. (update every 5 blocks based on 40 block average with a max change of x% (up and down) would probably work well) If I'm way off on that, someone tell me. Wink

Someone should also create a Emerald Twitter account, an Emerald sub-reddit and a Emerald Facebook page to provide regular updates as to the progress that is being made on the revitalization of Emerald. These social media accounts will also expose new people to the currency and bring former miners/buyers back to the project.

A video showing the vision of Emerald (when a clear path is established) could be a nice addition to promote the coin, as well.

Everyone should be looking for ways in which people can use Emerald. Whether that be gambling sites, merchants, etc. Members could also create Emerald themed items such as: clothing, calendars, mugs, novelty items, etc that could be traded for Emeralds.

Developing apps and/or plugins that create new uses for Emerald would generate interest, especially if they are new and/or unique.

It really should not be that hard to create renewed interest in Emerald. Any volunteers to start the new thread?
