It's scrypt...GPU mining

Now that's the coin i was looking for in the past few weeks!

Need more infos soon 

Octocoin is for CPU or GPU miners?

Welcome to Bee OctoCoin mining pool

http://bee-oct.daan.lt

1. Pool fee is 0.5%
2. Payment type PROP

Pre-registrations are open

Nearly our full team has arrived in Austin, TX but we're scattered across 3 different hotels - SXSW is insanity. We have a team meeting in about 10 hours and will post updates shortly after that. If you want your pool to be included in the main post, please contact me via private message. edric's pool is locked in at #2 on the list.

During the first 8 days, each block will contain 888 OctoCoins - these represent the largest OctoCoin blocks there will ever be. As a result, we expect a lot of miners will be hitting OctoCoin early and we will make sure we are prepared. While the difficulty will start out low, it will ramp up quickly - we expect the 888 blocks to last very close to the full 8 days.

You may want to speak with the developer about it, he has asked not to announce anything until after a dev team meeting which takes place tomorrow. I've got a pool set up as well and will be opening registrations when we get the green light from the devs. See if there's still a spot for an official launch pool, I think there's 3 so far but more pools are always good as long as there's miners!

Setting up a pool for it

I lost it there dude. But you're absolutely right, a coin is a coin, is a coin, ad nauseum, it's all in the presentation, the marketing strategy, and who you know. When I saw this one I immediately got pretty excited and after speaking with the dev I'm itching to get my pool open and see what other services spring up. I've been busting my butt this past week trying to early adopt some new coins and I've been getting stuck with failure to launch after failure to launch. I'm expecting great things from OctoCoin and I know the devs are too. See you guys on the 8th at 18:08!

excited to hear more about the services they'll have.

eight is great! lol

I've seen your posts around before and it's the same thing over and over. You have to get a life buddy. Not every single new coin is a scam and you posting the same message in every thread isn't going to change anything. I had a brief exchange with one of the devs and it sounds like they have some cool services and whatnot they are building and have their shit together. They openly admit just releasing another coin is pretty boring on it's own (although even that isn't a "scam") but the business is what they're excited about. By your definition even bitcoin is a scam then. If that's how you feel maybe you need a new hobby? You sound like a grumpy old man who has given up on life. The simple fact that I saw this website on the Guide Channel in my hotel room in Macau leads me to believe these guys have some connections and it seems more promising than any of the other coins that have been coming out lately. I'm not betting the farm on it but I'm definitely going to give it a shot. Maybe you are right but it seems strange to immediately accuse OctoCoin of being a scamcoin when nobody knows anything about it. I'm still confused and I certainly know more than you! Only time will tell but I've made money mining early on every single new coin (even Grumpycoin - the biggest piece of crap released in months. The guy behind it probably has to wear a helmet at all times and I still turned a profit.)

goodluck with your scamcoin.

As of right now, there will be 3 pools at launch. I believe they will all start taking signups before launch time. Details will be posted both here and at octocoin.org.

Looks good! 8 is my lucky number.

I have spoken with one of the developers of this coin. This is definitely going to be one to keep an eye on, I think we can expect good things.

I have already set up a pool, 1% fee PPLNS, with a weekly giveaway. Just waiting on the green light from the dev team to open it up for pre-registrations!

I just checked out my friends' room and it's on their TV also. This is so strange. What is it? Just another coin? How the hell did you get the URL on the TVs here?

Whoa. I saw octocoin.org at the bottom of the TV in my Macau hotel room this morning! No description or anything so I ignored it and then I saw this thread.

OP, sent you a PM

This coin sounds like it has some promise... No IPO, dev is actually online..

Lots of 8's involved.  Cool logo.  I'm in.
