This coin is finally going ahead. Launching in 24 hours.

I hope it was an 1st of april joke.

As a Scot and a YES voter in Sept, I wouldnae even look at yon pish if it wis free

Nor "scotcoin"

You really expect anyone to take a coin seriously or even contemplate using it named "bawbee"? get a grip min

Before you start ranting on about the banks, I am fully aware of the imposing situation, but this coin is a joke, widnae piss on it if it wis on fire

No, sorry, I already posted that I the launch is being postponed. I will announce again or update the thread when I have a definite date.

What's the situation with this coin? Shouldn't it be launched already? Is anyone mining it?

Why am I making this coin?

1. To learn more about Bitcoin and Litecoin. I have been following Bitcoin since 2011 and was initially interested in how it bypasses central banks, government and corporations, not it's current speculative nature. As a tech, reading the Wiki and browsing the source code will not teach me anything. I am the kind of person that needs to take something apart and rebuild it to find out how it works - I have learnt a lot.

While I and many other alt-coin creators are not doing anything new, some of us are learning the technology and many people are making small incremental improvements which may feed back to Litecoin or Bitcoin. While 99% of alt coins will probably be worthless in a few years, it all pushes the technology forward and develops skills in a new technology that will only become more and more mainstream and require more developers, evangelists and entrepreneurs.

2. A political statement. I was motivated to make this coin when the main UK political parties threatened that an independent Scotland would not be able to continue using the pound and could not enter a currency union (they have since backtracked). I am simply trying to demonstrate that there is an alternative to centrally controlled and manipulated fiat currencies and to show how easy it would be to set something up or to just lead people to Bitcoin or Litecoin.

3. Childish comedic value. Bawbee (pronounced boaby), BAWs, Baw bag - brush up on your Scottish slang if you don't get it. Well, it tickles me. I am just doing this for laughs.

4. Because I Efing can.

PS: Please people, this is not a country coin. Anyone is more than welcome to give this coin a go, no restrictions, allocations, air drops or pre-mining for that matter.

Sorry folks, I know you are all queueing up to mine this coin but I am postponing the launch for the time being while I finish setting things up. Hopefully be up and running in a week or so.

Why do you tell this? You are multinational and want a free coin for that?

I wanna get rich! I'm coming!  I'm a guy with multi-nationality.
I'm an Icelanders,  Spanish, Ukrainians and also Scottish.
Send me your free coin!

I think all the country coins are made for money.
They just misappropriating money.....
Can you give me a good reason why you make this coin?
