I was looking for something to show you guys and came across this, thought you all might like to read this. Remember getmining,info one of our older more respected members? When I was throwing around ideas before I started he chimed in:(
underlined important points)
There are a few things that I think should be considered.
Activity in and around PMC stopped. This is why it was delisted. No-one posted in the thread, no-one was trading it, the community fizzled away. This is an important and irrefutable fact.
Any 'revival' of PMC should be 'as new' - What I mean by this is that it should stay true to the original intentions of the coin. Those original intentions were an experiment to try to expose what would happen to BTC once it had all been mined.
It is important to note now that PMC was traded, people did make profit and people did make a lose. It can be strongly suggested that people who currently hold PMC either did not actively encourage it's use or take part in the community or bought it very cheap over the past several months (since the crash) in the hopes that they would make a profit at some point, a gamble.
Therefor, I very strongly suggest that very careful consideration should be given to any PMC revival that is slanted to the benefit of existing holders. There is no good reason to reward current holders of PMC in any greater way than new investors which may enter into the revival.
It is very easy to see and the suggest that a revival is to benefit existing holders that invested and/or are hurt that their PMC is worthless.
I believe the best way to proceed is to attempt a revival of the 'experiment'.
This could either be done with a hardfork of the current chain or, my preference, a new experiment should be started but with absolutely no exchange of existing PMC to the revival. It should be a completely new and fresh, clean experiment.
Absolutely no IPO, ever.
All that being said, I do have PMC - But that is my fault and I understand that.
Please PM me a date/time if there is to be an IRC meetup (as I will receive an email alert and will then know to jump in)
It's unfortunate we don't hear reasonable words like this more often.
But I have something better to post now. One moment.
