Network is very slow again, Nicehash attacked to 700KH/s.

Very beautiful packs  .

Storj - decentralized storage, Ethereum - smart contracts, Zcash, monero and many other - privacy, factom - database registry, synereo - attempts to build decentralized social network and many others 
Regarding you statement about "only USD payments". You know all Marijuana is illegal on fed level, right? And still dispenssaries are there  You know most of extracts are illegal on state level, right? And still you can buy it in every dispensary  You know there are other countries other than US, right? And still they are smoking weed there 

Totally disagree with you, there are so many good coins after 2012, not weed coins. Ethereum, Monero, Zcash and many others. Why people are not working in McDonalds and starting their own restaurant? Because they don't want to work for McDOnalds corp, because they want to do it different. Same here, there are a plenty of weed coins but still no weed coin with smart contracts and here we go. You may like it or not but it is a competition and real free market capitalism. I can't call it pyramid, everything is pyramid in that view.
Time will tell.

MAR SCAM was a very painful for us all. Thanks Gosh I haven't bought any MAR. MAR scammed the community on much more than 28btc, all weed coins trust is under attack now. I hold a few Marijuana coins and I support the weed cryptocurrency movement.
Smart contracts may be not so bad and I don't think MarijuaneumTeam is behind Marijuanacin scam. My IMHO. What I can tell for sure is about dopecoiners, they are attacking other weed coins too and they are running their own weed coin at the same time with very low almost 0$ exchange volume and 67 satoshi price at the moment. I see a conflict of interests here. But whatever.
Marijuaneum still can be a scam as 90% of ICOs but if it is not a scam the project can potentially go very high with a few other cannabis coins. It is a pure speculation now, time will tell. I will think about giving a penny to this ICO and may decide to have a few XMJ tokens in my basket. Bonus stage is a good decision.
We can't compare it, I know but I remember when there was an Ethereum ICO many people were telling it is scam. Now we see it is not.
Time will tell.

haha, few of them will be mine after the ICO I am a PoW miner and pool owner, don't understand smart contracts too much, but I mine ethereum and ollect weed coins;D

Don't waste your time on them. Ethereum + Marijuana is right in time. Will take some during the ICO 

Good, BTW name is awesome. Imaging Vitalik Buterin smokin big blunt 

Here we go. New Marijuana coin! I am very exited, let me take a look   Smart contracts + Marijuana - this is cool! So ICO not started yet?

Bots making volumes is actually good for coin. You can put your order at price you think is reasonable, buy or sell, don't look at bots, bots just help coins with liquidity and attention. There can be 2 or 3 bots trading with each other, that is why we see big volumes. Do you really think XMR or DASH volumes are natural? You know why XCI is valuable? Because people spend time and money for bots, mining, nicehash, etc. XCI features are very good. It is PoW, it is private and it is open source, of course it is about weed:) what else do we need.
P.S. GoriillaPool.org had some interruptions due to the server failure. Now everything is ok.

Just noticed XCI is listed under Silver sponsors and if you will check Silver sponsorship is 19000$ now https://www.compassionatecertificationcenters.com/exhibitor-registration/.
Devs are shy 
By the way one conference is not a very big milestone. We need more media coverage. Coin is just great after the recent updates. Thank you again devs.

Good work devs! 1600 blocks on gorillapool.org after the recent XCI update. No issues, just perfect. Thank you again.

GorillaPool.org is up and running with the updated XCI 1.0.11 - JOIN THE STABLE XCI MINING and LOWEST 0.4% FEE
gorillapool.org

XCI is almost the best performer among all cryptos now and it is definately #1 Cannabis cryptocurrency. I think price will hit 1$ this year very soon and may hit 10$ later this year, because 10$ is an average 1g weed price. It will be very easy to exchange weed-to-xci 1-to-1

I really like the devs, was speaking with them in private channels, they are very ambisious and know much about weed industry and know major people there. But they seems not to be very hurry with promotion right now because they need to be sure XCI is stable enough for dispensaries use. I beleive the latest XCI 1.0.11 will solve all the issues and waiting for the GUI based on 1.0.11.
Thanks devs!
Join GorillaPool, mine XCI, LOWEST FEE 0.4% and 1 XCI payout.

Thanks for sharing, I mean to open source your pool source code with all additions on github for other pool admins.

Source code link?

Did it! Now payments are going smoothly.

XCI is anonymous - stands for your Privacy, Pot is not.
XCI is miners friendly PoW, decentralized. Pot is PoS, Pot more centralized.
XCI is new and uses new CryptoNote tech, Pot is old and Scrypt.
Here are the main differences. For me XCI is much better than Pot, it may be very young now but with a great potential to grow!

Yes gorillapool.org is on the right chain, the same as other pools.

Small problem: reset 
Huge problem: resync+reset 

Now he is on both http://xci.acidminer.org/ and http://gorillapool.org/
Nicehash is changing IP for every new order. We can ban a range of IPs but we should do it together. That would be a good solution for now. BipCoin dev is saying he can help with XCI forking.
