Topic: [ANN] BlackCoin (BC/BLK) | PoS | No Premine - No IPO (Read 2803 times)

QFT.. as they say  

How about getting some devs on here so people don't have to sign up to three seperate forums to get any technical questions answered?

Please discuss further here:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=599299.new#new

what BC needs is to be listed on BTC-E

Thanks, hopefully we can have a more factual discussion in this thread Might I suggest that those who feel like helping us get listed on BTC38 take a minute and write a suggestion in this thread -> https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.5834047
Or indeed send a PM directly to them at https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/btc38-262888

If you do please keep it professional and don't spam them. Not that most people here would, but I just want to point that out regardless.

Time to move on... lets get this party started !

Yes, this one is going to be self moderated however.

I will not delete genuine problems, but FUD, trolling, accusations and threaths are gone on sight.

Also, IE: you are welcome to post your projects here.

Looking forward to more reasonable discussion in this one.

Is this a new coin??? 

Interested in investing in BlackCoin?

Then you need to perform your "Due Diligence"!

First, I recommend you head over to Reddit where you will find a structured and relaxed atmosphere. Many of the developers and community management are there to answer your questions.

http://www.reddit.com/r/blackcoin/

Next I recommend BlackCoinTalk, this is a forum setup specifically focused on BlackCoin. This again is populated by all core team members, developers and community managers.

Finally, give the official BlackCoin.co site a visit where you can download the latest version of the BlackCoin wallets.

BACK TO BUSINESS!

Dear BlackCoin Community,

I'm blown away by the potential of the upcoming 90 day PR campaign. Our lovely coin will be catapulted onto the world stage and I firmly believe this will be immensely beneficial to BC. So over the weekend I thought, "what can I do to help BlackCoin?" in addition to my donations to all projects already?

Well. I've decided to put all my efforts into assisting with the PR campaign by making FURTHER donations to the cause equal to those raised by the community up to a value of $5,000.

I promise to match EVERY donation from now onwards for 24 hours up to a total of $5,000. You can pay in any of the official denominations. For accounting purposes I need you to list your donation transaction ID on reddit, I will then match it 100%. I will be promoting my fund raiser on Reddit, Twitter and BitCoinTalk.

Official donation addresses:

BC: BTfqh99d8DcKWrd4hFYLR7D2bAYDdAKV3Q   
BTC: 1MAGvdGMCAaJysMBgA5uFRBUFQ25AkUWQV   
LTC: LSGPviYMYmgF2RiXVuXG1U4iVz3drk3JvR   
Doge: DNkmhknWWx6ogrHaTy9X2SLft9ouwhCNs1
Paypal: http://www.blackcoin.co/donate/

Tell me about your donation HERE on Reddit, and I will match it:

http://www.reddit.com/r/blackcoin/comments/24si9s/i_will_match_your_pr_donations_to_5000_for_24/

So, please help me reach my target, together we can add $10,000 to the fund raised. If you have already donated (like me) then consider donating AGAIN as I'm going double it for you! Let's get BlackCoin to $1 sooner rather than later!!

Let's get this PR campaign underway and prove what an AWESOME COMMUNITY we are!

You can find more about the PR campaign here: http://www.blackcoin.co/general/the-next-step-for-blackcoin-hiring-an-pr-agency/

Have your wallet unlocked and online.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compound_interest#Compound_Interest
I still don't understand PoS interest!

What is the number of coins?
Not fixed nor limited
What is happening when my coins are offline? Am I loosing reward?
You are loosing transaction fees and compound interest. Nominal interest will be paid when you find a block
Why stake reward is so low?
Just as planned
