Re: [ANN] BlackCoin (BC/BLK) | PoS | Multipool | Coinkite | WSJ

With the experience with BC, I doubt any alt is more than one-time p&d with occasional jumps on the way down. There is no alt that has broken the pattern so far. Shit - I learned the hard way. Could have become rich selling a few alts at peaks, but have almost nothing now Sad

EDIT: It might change when the next BTC bubble starts, but who knows...

It's not about how much $ you can buy with your BC, but it's about how much BC you have.

When that BC becomes useful, you're happy with your market position.

In the meantime.. Alts are only profitable short term if you want more btc. In long term, who knows. I think BC is a serious contender.. but will take much effort and use before we beat ATH again.

maarx btw do you know when or if the pool will buy again soon?

I believe they are buying on Bittrex, but I haven't talked with the pool operators (LDG: StGNU and TheDoge) in a long time..

I don't mine either, but I understand the pool does not pay out?

I have participated in two payout rounds and got not a single coin

BC send: N/A.

Also looking at the depth graph in cryptsy or bittrex the pool having a few GHs should easily bring BC above 12k thats why I am asuming, it does not buy at all. Also, cryptsy api is still offline
