All I can say is, I hope the devs of this coin are legitimate. Since this coin has a centralized aspect the Devs have to be silent? I've only seen Nick step up and say he is a "volunteer". I see that he is only accepting donations for his time on the Solarcoin website.
Nick, what do we know about the Devs of this coin? Who is on the board that controls the majority of these coins? I'm probably missing this information so please forgive me if it's right in front of my face.
One of them is some kind of economist who wrote some sort of paper about reward systems for solar energy generation, but found that it wasn't feasible until crypto-currencies came along. From what I gather, the devs for this coin and the organization behind them is LEGIT, and to consider coins made by random pump & dumpers on the internet with no functional value beyond any other crypto as legit and not this one is just plain silly.
I think some people are weirded out by this coin because of the aforementioned lack of engagement by the devs, but I can assure you that that is not for lack of work going on behind the scenes, and I take it to be a sign that these guys aren't in it to make a quick buck off the premine like so many others are.
I realize it's hard to take it at face value, but I have high hopes that we are going to see really big things from this coin. Sleeper-coin of 2014 in my book.
spot on! Ive done my research too, before i decided to mine this coin and I can only see promising things out of solarcoin.
Are you doing it with solar energy or not? You might ruin the coin if you mine it with nuclear power produced energy.
What is this even supposed to mean??
