If you look at digitalcoin there block reward is 15 every 40 seconds.
And if you look at there trading on cryptys the bid and ask are made up of
small orders of 10-20 coins increments.

Hopefully this will happen with solarcoin if the block reduction
is down to 5 a minute by next year.

Instead of having 5k to 10k on the bid and ask on a single order.
As we have today.

Rarer = more valuable = more solarcoin grants

Gotta agree with that.  By decreasing block reward, then PoS, it looks to be a good scenario for those that have already mined/bought the 25% of all solarcoins that will be mined….and would think it should raise the value of solarcoins. 

So you think that a block reward halving or % reduction for a coin that has only 0.1% of coins available for mining will  influence the price by even one satoshi?

For certain.  Demand should stay strong, and hopefully grow, as the Foundation spreads its wings. And, the # of coins available will shrink, with block reward reduction, and then PoS. Expectations for granting of solarcoins from solar power is low for the first few years…see previous post providing research/predictions.

Yes, because approximately $300 per day is flowing into SolarCoin as buys on the exchanges -- and this buying rate has been pretty consistent over the past few months -- and without as many new coins being created, mined, and dumped by miners, those buys will have to be bought into the ask, driving up the price. It's basic supply and demand. The 98 billion SLR held in reserve is going to be granted to solar energy generators over the next 40 years. The existence of those coins has little to do with the current price of SLR because they are not circulating.

Ask is drying up hopefully the person who was dumping is done i remember there was a guy on litecointalk jrose that mined over a million in the early days i bet it was him on the ask selling.

As long as the block reward is relatively high, there will be dumpers. By next January, I imagine there won't be many dumpers left.

If the only way to mine coins was to own coins, then that would definitely make SLR more valuable.

If the board decides on a block reward decrease will this require a hardfork?
Yes, changing the block reward structure or block times always requires a hardfork.

Must remember we're halfway to block rewarding halving in the current code too.

https://github.com/solarcoin/solarcoin/blob/master/src/main.cpp#L838

…anything else looks to requires a code change.

I think we can just leave it. It will probably make the coin more appealing if left without all the fancy hoo-ha. I can see a switch to POS, especially for what this coin is trying to achieve. A switch to POS before or during the roll out of the real grant program would probably help the coin quite a bit as you should only be able to get it from solar power and various solar related efforts aside from the IPO which also makes sense.

Check this out: http://coinvox.org/the-future-of-governance/ Pretty good read and SolarCoin is mentioned twice.

The good thing about all these coins being delisted and solarcoin staying for a few more weeks makes less junk available and hopefully solarcoin can shine.

We just need to all put our money where our mouth is.

Here is the link where we can plead our case to stay on Bittrex: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-potential-markets-de-listed-from-bittrex-635824

I just posted on there to help out but if they want to get rid of solarcoins i will just stick with allcrypt

 in the end it really doesnt matter bittrexx doesnt make or break us.

Personally, I've always like Allcrypt better, but I usually get better buys on Bittrex.

AllCrypt is going to do a major overhaul soon, and from what I've heard they will be adding margin trading and shorting. Perhaps in a few months they'll be a much bigger exchange than they are now. Still, it's unfortunate that it looks like we'll be cut from Bittrex in the near future, as Bittrex has emerged as the #1 or #2 for altcoins. Oh well.

Bittrex Bill posted in the other thread that they'll be leaving us "for a few more weeks". At least we don't have to keep begging every week.  Grin
