Topic: [ANN] ZenithCoin (ZTC) Market Making Sustainable Crypto Currency - page 20. (Read 35770 times)

FTC 2 already exists lol, yeah I was thinking that same thing when I saw it, week re target is going to turn into a really long time when a bunch of miners jump off if it at a high difficulty.

FTC 2.0

difficulty changes every 4096 blocks...hmm i dont see it lasting long after the initial hype

It is quite interesting especially how the development fund will be used.

http://www.zenithcoin.com/?page_id=6 50% of the coins go to the dev and to "back" the value of the coins with reserves of btc and ltc  

Use Google.

Maybe you will want to describe and give more details of your ZenithCoin so that others can evaluate and maybe offer some good suggestions?  Just giving the date isn't too much helpful.

yay

Anything special about it?

STATUS

7:57 AM EST  -  Currently generating genesis block for June 1st, 2013.   Proof of work will be Litecoin compatible.  Difficulty will start at 0.00024414.

2:30 PM EST - Genesis block created.  Currently performing final checks prior to source code check-in.

4:30 PM EST - Source code checked in.   Daemon tested on MacOS X.  Currently testing build for Ubuntu.

6/2/2013 11:56 AM - Block Explorer ready and tested (see: http://explore.zenithcoin.com ).   We will be making some network changes, to add some permanent nodes on the network.    Please do not mine yet until we have this setup.

6/2/2013 6:41 PM - Initial code check-in of client code based on MultiBit.

6/2/2013 8:49 PM - Fixed port bug.  Successful network test.  

6/3/2013 Two nodes have been set up to allow folks to test mine the coin.

6/5/2013 A couple of miners have attempted to skip the line and mine prior to official mining.    All their coins will become invalidated prior to the start of mining.

6/5/2013 8:57 PM Appears there are a couple of scammers who modified the source code,  distributed a windows binary and are  mining.    Due to the modification,  none of the official clients will accept the incompatible blockchain created by these scammers.    This is a minor inconvenience at this time.  We will just need to reconfigure default network parameters to avoid these folks.

6/6/2013 2:13 PM Users eagleeye and magnet continue to pawn off counterfeit ZTC on bitcointalk.org.

6/7/2013 ZenithCoin being prepared for mining on 6/09

Nodes in different geographic locations  (europe, us east, us west) will be setup for mining.   A new genesis block will be created for these nodes.

One word of warning, you can test mine right now, but we'll recreate the genesis block on the official mining launch so you will will lose these test coins.

6/9/2013  Mining started.  

6/10/2013 1457 blocks mined, current difficulty is 0.58768933.  

6/17/2013 5,342 Block Mined.  Difficulty is 0.7

Windows, Linux and MacOS clients available.

Update

I received this email from Jim yesterday:

:Thank you for suggestion for the new coin type.
We will take the time to check out your suggestion and consider it for addition to the Cryptsy
trading area!

If you have any further suggestions, please let me know

Sincerely
Jim
Customer Service Manager

Difficulty is quite low right now, so this is a great opportunity to mine.

Also,  I can give a 2,000 ZTC bounty for people to setup pools!  First 3 pools get the bounty!

I will keep up the ZTC Cryptsy Bounty thread https://cryptsy.freshdesk.com/support/discussions/topics/41385  until we actually list.

So if you can't mine, you can continue to show your support by voting up ZTC at Cryptsy.

The market will determine the price.  However,  there are only less than 2.5 million coins, so try to compare it with coins like it.

Coinmarketcap.com is a good source:

Here are some coins that are comparable (based on number of coins created):

65    Noirbits                $ 63,109   $ 0.03   2,099,560 NRB   $ 1,527   -3.98 %

So in the low range, it could be work 3 cents and at the high, possibly 50 cents.

Just a reminder,  this is not a new coin,  it was created back in June 2013.
