sounds interesting, can you speak more about the hashing algo?

will give this a try when it's released :>

Restarts?  Meaning ZERO coin after mining?  Then this is a BETA test coin.

Maybe this should be called "Amnesia coin"

Coin Minting
-----------
Reduction of 5% each week. 90% of coins minted in first year. 10% minted in second year. ~2% a year thereafter



Grant Awards
-------------
Every 20 blocks, a grant is awarded. The grant size is 5 times the size of the block reward.
Coin holders vote as to which address receives the grant.

Grant Voting
------------
Addresses beginning MVTEoEo are eligible to receive the grant provided it receives enough votes.

To vote for a grant, send a small amount of coin to the address.
For example, to vote for the MemoryCoin Foundation, send 1 satoshi (0.00000001) to

MVTEoEoXmYzFydRfg5uNJRewt9tZ329fAN

Try that now.

You can vote for grants in order of preference.

Lower amounts represent higher preferences . . . so you should send 1 satoshi to your highest preference, 2 satoshis to your second preference etc.
Amounts are cumulative . . . so if you send additional amounts, they are added to previous amounts to determine which preference they are in your vote.

The grant are awarded every 20 blocks using a STV voting system. If your first preference is eliminated, your vote is transferred to your second preference, until one of your preferences is elected or the election ends.

You only need to vote once, and your vote will be active for all future elections. Your whole balance will count towards your vote, so the large your balance, the more influence your vote has.

You should only use one key per wallet when you use the voting system in MemoryCoin. The MemoryCoin wallet will always send change in you transactions to the first address in your wallet, helping to maintain all of your funds at a single address.
