I registered an amazing 3 letter .bit domain last month. I was really surprised it was available, someone must have slipped up and let it expire!
I'm going to be keeping it forever since they are cheap to renew and possibly using it for a zeronet site.

Maybe some chit chat about transport layer security?

That are great news. I don't think anything like a "recognition" of .bit will happen, but it shows the Namecoin system is not only a dream of some nerds. And maybe it will lead at least to ".bit" domains being permanently rejected as new "official ICANN" TLDs. (I think that interview is also the reason for the recent price spike, if I look at CMC.)
But I continue to think that a more user-friendly implementation of OpenNIC is the way to go. A browser plugin would surely be a good start, although I don't know if its technically possible to do it in a decentralized way (Peername seems to use a centralized web service). Also, OpenNIC could provide a small and user friendly tool that connects to the alternative DNS servers, Linux distributions even could offer it as a standard way to connect to DNS.

Why is this coin so dead?
Is it even actively developed?

Where do you see the coin to be dead? If you look at our Github (https://github.com/namecoin/namecoin-core/tree/dev), you'll see that we are regularly updating the code - about once per week usually. We are usually on par with the bleeding-edge Bitcoin Core, integrated with Namecoin's functionality.
Apart from the core client, we've also other projects ongoing that build on top of it to further extend the Namecoin ecosystem.

I wonder how it can go up? What would have to happen?
The problem of Namecoin is that it's barely used - because almost nobody will be able to connect to .bit domains. The centralized DNS system is too strong, for now. Only if Namecoin develops into a real alternative to the ICANN-controlled system it can be a success.
I recommend everyone who wants Namecoin to succeed to support and use the OpenNic project (https://www.opennicproject.org/) and other services like ZeroNet (https://zeronet.io/). Both, with different strategies, realize a "more decentralized Internet" and have integrated Namecoin's .bit domains.

Must be a false positive because a market without trading volume and buy support isnt going anywhere.No market = no future= no discussion.Nobody gives a shit about .bit domain names or any other geek babble.Money talks in the end and open source free innovation can be copied,cloned,recycled all day long so all anyone mining this crap cares about is cashing out with a profit.Have you seen the difficulty?There are multiple shitcoins out there offering better returns in return for hashpower.Namecoin is dead since it started and shouldnt even be on an exchange due to its inability to even provide a decent hedge against bitcoin.Dump it or cry when it flames out and you are left holding the bag.

It's going up.
February 02, 2017, 06:41:35 PM
It can go much lower.It dipped down to 16 cents not so long back so if you had went long with leverage you would have got taken out easily.
^^^live in hope but I hope you dont die in despair while still living in hope all the while dying in despair.Its a vicious circle.
January 10, 2017, 09:24:44 AM
Just pump it.

But then again we could just be returning back to where we started.

It needs a big ass overdue pump thats what

It says it's worth 22 cents US and there is a 3.2 million dollar market cap. There are 14,736,400 NMC out there.
Seems like it has a long way to fall. I wonder how it can go up? What would have to happen?

Too bad this coin is dead. It had good potential.

I heard Kimble is changing his name to kim .bit in the new year.Is there any truth to this rumour?

I think dmob,phelix and casini are also developers.There are many unknown developers too afaik.It's a pity its getting dumped but there seems to be a large mining pool just dumping their coins onto the exchanges.There still seems to be some buy support to absorb it though.No good to me now after buying all my nmc @ almost $7 LOL.
I think it's CEX.io. It seems they decided to dump all their alts.
There will be repercussions!!!
There was rumour of cryptsy liquidation of 75k coins already have been approved so this may also be factor but I think I see on namecoin forum mention of one particular mining pool dumping directly onto exchanges.
Cryptsy has in Vern or the lawyers? Cause the latter makes no sense, they should offer those at auction.

Nobody is buying namecoin only the mining pool that is dumping it and providing the fake support.Namecoin can go down a few more digits all the way to 1 satoshi.No demand for it meaning no market meaning no future etc etc.

75k coins being liquidated wont make much of a difference to the price and can be absorbed eventually but constant dumping by a large mining pool would affect price long term.
