Great! waiting update wallet and pools

Pure PoW, CPU-only solo mining.. so old-school. I love it!
Looks like restarted Darkcoin, driven in a fair way.. I'm in, deffinitely.
By the way - how much coins for a masternode? 1000?

Keeping it solo only is not a bad idea actually. Though I'm not sure it's possible
It should be profitable and fair to mine for several weeks after launch, maybe months. That's the idea. When it becomes unprofitable, someone will make a pool
Certainly, pools will be created soon after solo mining goes obsolete but we don't expect it to happen soon. We might create a pool of ourselves so don't worry about that. Get ready for launch though, set some reminders, there's just one week left.

Amazing, this is a coin create for long term (36 years available), I think this is new concept. I confused, how much the price of this coin. Good luck dev.

There is a nice discussion here explaining the benefits of Argon2d for mining and its improvrments over scrypt and others:
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10863131
Overall Argon2d is a novel algorithm that was selected as the winner in the 2015 Password Hashing Competition; the Argon2d version was chosen as it provides maximal resistance to GPU cracking attacks. As a result, Credits is GPU- and ASIC-resistant and can only be mined with a CPU, maximizing decentralization and prohibiting the setup of mining farms.The currency also provides botnet-resistance using memory-hard functions.

Glad to hear this will be CPU only .
Will be there a pool and a miner at launch ?
Thanks
There is no pool yet, it will be solo mining in the begining, CPU-only mining. As for the miner, it is included in the wallet that will be released on June 17th.

Currently the press release is being worked on in the Slack channel by the community.
Website is having its CSS finalised and also the Download menu will be hidden until precisely 10PM UTC on the 17th to stop people trying to download and saying the link is dead, this work is also being done by a community member in Slack.
Not to mention all the other bits and pieces worked on already by the community in the Slack channel.
Basically lots happening in the Slack channel, so come on over

Why your signature is SONM not Credits 
Best comment here
I was part of https://boinc.drugdiscoveryathome.com long time ago. This kind of BOINC "decentralization" existed long before bitcoin. Some of the drugdiscovery@home devs are now creating SONM. And I find decentralized GPU/CPU usage very promising. Does that answer your question?
To continue on that note: Me and @loremipsum are merely helping the creator of Credits, we've joined him in the beginning and so we've remained to handle things such as Bounties, Promotion and such.
We found out about Credits after joining the SONM campaign so you can guess that we are not leaving yet as that is another very interesting project. After their campaign ends make sure that we'll replace our signatures with the CRDS one or even earlier.

I am quite sure pool operators will most certainly want this on their pools, so a module will be created quickly by someone if it doesn't exist already, or is already being worked on.

No wallet for android?
SPV is certainly possible, but because of Android phones using the processors they use, Argon2d is simply not compatible, so a native wallet running on Android is not possible at this moment in time, that doesn't mean it cannot ever be done.
