I didn't even realize you were the one who answered that question -- haha!

No, it didn't sound like a sales pitch to me. It's little things like this I'd like to know about. I had been out of the game for some time now, but now that my BTCs are in profit, time to look for another coin to go in big with. I still haven't decided which coin to jump in, but I do have some interest in GLD.

Ha. I had deleted that Quora answer a couple of hours ago because it felt too much like a sales pitch.

Anyway, I've restored the answer now since you quoted it. Yes, of course it's true!  

Is this true? Was GLD coin's lead dev classmates with Ethereum’s dev at University of Waterloo?

Goldcoin was established in May of 2013 and is a currency dedicated to reflecting the ideals of its community.

We believe that Satoshi had it right the first time and that many of the current scaling solutions being introduced are "contaminants" to his invention and not improvements. Essentially, Goldcoin is a welcoming home for bitcoin purists.

The OP of this thread contains an overview of our mission. I would suggest looking over that for additional information then asking any specific questions that might arise.

I was wondering what makes this coin different from clone coins? I'm looking to sell some of my BTCs for a new upcoming coin. Can anyone tell me more about this one?

Sunday Meeting June 25 Highlights

Please find below highlights from Sunday's Skype meeting.

1.  In order to increase forum accessibility, a Facebook forum login has been added. This allows users with a Facebook account to signup with one click. I'll look into getting Twitter and Google added this week.

2.  This month was held the first German meetup between Cryptosolar and Stemis (who was traveling to Germany). In addition, node count in the country is at an all-time high and now makes up nearly 5% of the network.

3.  Gerald Higginbotham continues to raise funds for his Garden of Eden project. More on this project next week.

4.  It was suggested that our meeting time be moved up to avoid conflicts with Sunday church activity. The new meeting time is 7 p.m eastern (6 p.m central).

5.  The GoldCoin Talk forum domain was changed from GLDTALK.ORG to GOLDCOINTALK.ORG. The depreciated domain will continue to provide forwarding service for a minimum of 1 year.

6.  There are indications that our anti SegWit position is attracting bitcoin purists who are disillusioned with the current bitcoin infighting. Goldcoin is 100% committed to Satoshi's original vision which means the primary chain should never be throttled. The code enforces a social contract by its users who demand that Goldcoin remain sovereign, decentralized, and trustless.



7.  Last week Goldcoin reached its all-high in both price and volume with an intraday price of 15 cents on volume of $250,000.00. Source: http://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/goldcoin/#charts

8. There have been recent upgrades to the payment gateway and mail server for TryGoldcoin.com. All site email is now routed through Amazon SES while the local SMTP server is being depreciated.

9.  This fall Steve Conley will be kicking off a 19-city Goldcoin Tour speaking at historic black colleges across America.

10. We experienced an over-capacity issue with Skype at the beginning of the meeting. Skype disables audio and video when a group exceeds 24 users. This problem was resolved by removing group users who were not present for the meeting.
 
11.  Russia now accounts for our third largest country based on node count. It now makes up over 5% of the Goldcoin network. Source: https://chainz.cryptoid.info/gld/#!network

I'm not sure, but it's very unusual.

This Coinmarketcap link appears to accurately reflect the exchanges real trading activity: http://coinmarketcap.com/exchanges/alcurex/

Does that mean they are front running Bittrex trades?  Even the highs, lows and volume are the same.

Hi.
Does Goldcoin plan any renewal for the wallet?
Your wallet looks quite conservative and for sure investors want to see more..

I had updated the OP and the main website but then noticed the exchange is mirroring the Bittrex order books?

   I would be more than happy to update anything you need, just send me a PM on what needs changed & I will update the BBcoding on Github. I did push a few updates a while ago, fixing the broken links in the news area of the OP & see they are still 404 errors. I can update it anyway you would like MicroGuy or cryptosolar, updating the news area does show a good timeline for the coin & think that would be very useful for anyone new to the coin.

edit: just noticed that OP is also missing in the list of Exchanges https://novaexchange.com/market/BTC_GLD/

// you can message me any time or we can talk through any other form of communication about updates if you would like MicroGuy (Skype or Email), been a while since I have not been on the dedicated forum for the coin in a long time & will look there now.

For our favourite troll:

It would be nice if OP would update the first post with Alcurex echange too, since it is traded there too:
https://alcurex.com/#GLD-BTC

You might give https://hash-to-coins.com/ or http://inetrader.com/ a try!

anyone know of any mining pools for this coin?

Sunday Meeting June 11 Highlights

There's been a lot going on within the Goldcoin community over the past two weeks. At today's meeting I made the first test of my new mobile Skype rig made up of the new Logitech 4K webcam, Sennheiser headset, and IBM Thinkpad.

I'm building the rig in preparation for next year's North American Goldcoin Tour (see below).  

~~

1.  For the past several weeks all email functions of the forum have been crippled. I mistakenly commented out the openssl extension in PHP on the website server. A friendly Twitter user recently contacted me and alerted me to the problem. Email service has now been fully restored.

Email Bug Thread: https://www.gldtalk.org/index.php?topic=3859.0

2.  Eric has announced he is buying a MAC computer so he can develop the iOS wallet. If you would like to contribute to this project, you can send a GLD donation here: E1A6WogjpqU3KjjoRUD63f7kofrFozmyfg

3.  Recently I've been testing Purse.io by buying various items w/ bitcoin on Amazon. Once the client update is released we can look into the possibility of getting Goldcoin added to ShapeShift making GLD Amazon payments possible.

4.  We're seeing an increase in activity in the Goldcoin telegram group. You can join the group here: https://t.me/goldcointalk

5.  In 2018 we will launch the "North American Goldcoin Tour" whereby I will travel the continent in a Class A motorhome w/ full Goldcoin advertising wrap. I'll be setting up booths at technology conferences, cryptocurrency conferences, and also sponsoring myself in 5K Cross County races decked out in full Goldcoin racing attire.

6.  The United States node count percentage (wallet users in the US) has just exceeded the 50% threshold. Overall Goldcoin node count is also increasing (avg per 24 hours = +300). Source: https://chainz.cryptoid.info/gld/#!network

7.  The team is currently looking for an experienced broadcaster to stream/record our Sunday team meeting. The salary is 1000 GLD per episode. If you are interested in applying for this position, please attend the next Sunday meetings.

8.  Amir has announced an upcoming rebase (likely candidate 0.8.7.5) of the core client. The projected release date for this update is early to mid August. We will provide more details over the coming weeks.

9.  On June 6th, Goldcoin reached an intraday marketcap of US$5,500,000 on volume of $250,000. This was an all-time record for both the price and volume. Source: http://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/goldcoin/

10.  Goldcoin payment plugin installed at DrGerald.net is working flawlessly. Order confirmation after transmitting payment occurs in seconds.

11.  There are still over 100 altcoin wallets remaining in the Cryptsy Relief Project. If you are interested in one of these remaining wallets, you should make a request here: https://www.gldtalk.org/index.php?topic=3789.0

12.  TryGoldcoin now has a new merchant account w/ custom payment gateway. We now have the ability to alternate payment processors to increase redundancy lessening the chances of a gateway disruption.

13.  The United States node count percentage (wallet users in the US) has just exceeded the 50% threshold. Overall Goldcoin node count is also increasing (avg per 24 hours = +300). Source: https://chainz.cryptoid.info/gld/#!network

Added a pool for mining GLD:
GLD Forum:GoldCoin P2pool: http://crypto.office-on-the.net:8124 || http://crypto.mine.nu:8124
Full list of my nodes: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/annp2pool-p2pools-on-the-siberiaminenu-cryptominenu-852083

You can use something like prohashing and set it to pay out in Goldcoin.

can anyone tell me, is it possible to mine GLD with an Antminer L3+. If so, is there anything special I need to do to get it set up?
Thanks

relevant news now here is  launching...so relax over it.
