I think groestl is better than x11 for mining taking up far less energy. Anyways the coin looks good, will watch for a few days before mining.
For now i had bought some from bittrex. good luck

Thanks to CoinTweak and Bittrex for making this possible.

Please follow SFR on facebook for updates:

Hello,
We are planning to implement X11 algorithm as the 4th algorithm into SFR.
What do you all think? Would this be great for SFR given X11 is the talk of 2014 and very energy efficient?
Do give your reviews. If there is a good response, we will look to add it.
Thanks

No one needs to register and use the forum and not many do.
The forum's value comes from the SEO effort that goes into the back end.
Every post is indexed and easily visible.

I can guarantee that absolutely anyone in India who has heard about Bitcoin, has seen the forums or read through a minimum of 5 posts at some point in time.
There is not a single resource on the Internet which holds as much localized information as the forums.

We are now leading on Comkort voting.
Thanks to all those that helped in contributing. 

If you use Linux, you can download the SFR Linux wallet from http://saffroncoin.com
It is tested with CentOS but should work on Ubuntu as well.

Thanks. Sure i will keep this community updated with the progress!

Well in a way you are right that many indians do not use this forum but who ever are here form a significant part that cannot be neglected. Atleast you can hear the critics by being here.

I too believe we wont need a dozen coins to get the crypto rolling in India and just a single crypto coin is enough. But i just doubt will it be something other than bitcoin as it is the only coin mostly known as of now. The price should not be a problem - you know that bitcoin can be divided into satoshis.

From what i see i agree this probably is not created for profit - at least not for direct profit.

As long as this coin can do something good, i m here to lend a hand

Good luck with your coin !

Probably the devs of LaxmiCoin did not go through the project completely. Also, again they were targeting just the Indian Market. I was sent a PM by a very enthusiastic crypto expert from NewYork. He told me SFR is great at not targeting a particular region with the coin. All coins that did may have got initial hype but never succeeded worldwide. It turns worldwide traders off when they see a regional based coin. It is better to unite people by markets and not divide them by nationalities.
That is the reason many cryptos from India never got the pump because either they were targeting a particular state,the country or the sub-continent.

We don't need dozens of Indian cryptos to promote crypto in India. We just need one, done the proper way.
Also you are right, there aren't any multi crypto exchanges in India. There are only bitcoin related exchanges.
So, the same team that brought SFR are also working on creating a multi crypto exchange so Indian traders could trade in INR with trust.

Talking about features of SFR, it is unique in multi algo approach. Only 2 other coins use multi algorithms. It has been designed to be run for a very long time(Longer than Bitcoin i.e. 2040). The main thread has everything. https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-sfr-saffroncoin-latest-version-142262-mandatory-wallet-update-586320
Many of your queries may also have been answered by other people likewise.

It would be great if we all could join on IRC and discuss: #saffroncoin

Thanks

even if there are 3-4 coins already launched, India is much less known to the world. The much hyped laxmi coin also did not take off.



as i pointed out in my thread

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/something-is-holding-cryptocurrency-innovation-in-india-569378

We need dozens of indian cryptos, educating speakers like Andreas antonopolous , interesting projects like the one MIT did 2 days ago,new exchanges, we need kids using their gamin rigs as mining rigs...

So anything related to crypto i fully support

Does saffron coin have new features!

Thanks. Yes Saffron denotes the primary colour of the Indian flag. That is why i thought of this name that would actually denote our country without actually putting the name.
We aim to promote cryptos in India and it would be great if many Indians contributed to it so we may push the Govt. to rethink about the stance of cryptos in India.

It will make a huge difference. Our govt. will never adopt cryptos in its own if u have heard what RBI has to say. It is us who need to make the push. If a Indian crypto becomes real famous, it will give confidence to the Indian Government to see more pros than cons in cryptos. Nothing happens by itself.
My team never made this coin for self purpose or anything. We wanted to promote cryptos in India. Promoting Bitcoin wouldn't make any sense, so we thought by creating an Indian crypto, it would lay the platform for all cryptos in India.
If India becomes an active player, imagine the price of 1 BTC.
Yes, there have been 3-4 cryptos from India, but from what i have seen, they are mainly either projected at India or Asia. So the main market for those cryptos are Asia itself.
From studying the first week of all Indian crypto launches, SFR has received more activity from all over the world, maybe because we aren't projecting it at a particular region but the whole world infact. Many foreigners who have messaged me think that SFR is the first crypto from India and it can become real big since India is a huge market.

Well and i haven't come to the Indian community to get "promoted". I created a PRE-ANN but nobody replied. You can check out the main thread of the coin, where people have any sort of queries, i make sure i clear them. It is strange that for a local community you are supposed to "ask" for support to get support. I have also specified in the thread's "community" part, that we would love any support and you don't have to be a techie to join the community. So from my part, i did come here for support before launching. Also, i am new on this forum so i thought maybe Indians do not use this much.

We Indians love this protocol, that is why we are here. So, we should aim at promoting this stuff in India rather than letting our egos take control of us and decide which is better to make money. I am not talking about SFR but every Indian crypto that people feel could have a future, should be supported.

EDIT : You may think we made this just for profits. Well in the OP is listed that only 400 blocks were premined and most of them are already given away to bounties and promotions. If we aimed at just profits we would certainly have pre-mined much more than 400 blocks. 

Thanks

From what i have seen the Indian community in here is more friendly if you come here for support during development of the project so that the community here also stays more involved and not just when you need to get your product promoted.
Apart from the fact that this is a coin from an Indian, do you have any other reason to get support from here? There are 3-4 coins for India by other Indians already. According to me India do not need a non-government coin of its own to enter cryto market - it wont make much difference.

congrats for your new project..

how did you come up with this name..
the color saffron is associated with hinduism, so there is representation of Made in India in it..

good luck with the project

Thanks but just thought that it would be great if Indians would interact on this thread and suggest ideas to promote this coin in India. It would be a great platform for India to enter the crypto market.

Of course they do ! All the best with your coin !

Don't Indians use this Forum?
