As MimbleWimbleCoin is on its way and it would probably be better than Grin & Beam, will it be accepted on BitcoinTalk as well?

Link? With a horrible name like that I can only assume it's a copy/paste of grin or beam. I also found nothing from googling.

With all if that being said, I doubt bitcointalk would start accepting 'mimblewimblecoin'.

I think the current lack of a windows wallet with GUI is a bit of a hinderance for many users that could be considered a weakness.

Maybe, the GUI wallet for Windows will be released at the first anniversary of Grin coin. Theymos did (or did not) likely predict Grin coin destination for its first anniversary. Who knows, if Grin coin can be able to survive till its one year anniversary, and expected Windows GUI wallet released on that day. I think these two things deserve our time to wait for them. They might not happen at the same time, on one year anniversary, and Windows GUI wallet might be released sooner.

Since the inflation rate is so high in the first ~year, I think it will probably go even lower, probably under $1, and I'd expect the price chart of the first year to be a general downward trend.

Aren't there at least 3 GUI wallets now? Idk about Windows. I don't follow it closely as it doesn't affect me.

Depending on who you're willing to trust, I imagine there are many out there... If you're speaking about their core team (not sure what to call them) and windows, the next official release is expected to support Windows.

but did you pay dogie back?

Dogie canceled his bogus claims.

Cancelled the court claim.

This is false. In other news, Guy stole that forum account from the company and its creditors.

I've just noticed this thread and I have to say that I'm glad for this decision. I really like GRIN, it doesn't seem to have any weaknesses Cool

Yeah, but I was thinking about the idea behind the project: it is strong, not speculative and new. Technicalities will be overcome soon IMO.

To be honest, I found interesting thing.
I spent a few minutes to check previous pages, what I found is no one in the topic pay attention on the rate for forum's Copper Membership in Grin coin changed.
The new rate has been almost double its past one.

New rate:

I was surprised to see Grin as a payment option, especially on bitcointalk. I suppose it's always nice to have an alternative choice for odd scenarios.
It's an interesting project that i'm keeping an eye on also, will be neat to see where it goes

How did you know about grin so early? Was it posted somewhere?

I read the original mimblewimble paper in 2016 and was very interested. I mentioned it a few times on Reddit and here (eg. here). A while later I heard that someone was working on it in the form of grin, but I then mostly forgot about it. I wasn't actively following it. But luckily in December or thereabouts I stumbled upon some article on coindesk or similar that mentioned its impending release.

I remember reading about it as a potential scaling solution a while back also.

@theymos - Your grin link seems to be broken at the moment. Should be: https://grin-tech.org/

~~I think that grin-tech.org is just down right now.~~ Nevermind, fixed. Thanks.

Kinda dissapointed that Howeycoins can't achieve the same thing despite being older.

Since everyone who invested in howeycoins became a billionaire, I was worried about what would happen to the world economy if I promoted it even more.

haha, that's very funny but on another hand you were very right when you posted it in Grin's ANN thread.
Here is quote: "I will definitely be buying grin fairly early on. Probably won't bother figuring out mining, though. Note that due to the way grin emits its coins, prices are likely to start out high and steadily drop for the first few weeks/months."
Yeah, as it seems price falls and falls currently, great time to buy or mine this coin but I have one question, rarely think you'll answer but I hope so.
How did you know about grin so early? Was it posted somewhere? Just want to know because I highly doubt you read all alt announcement thread because od busy time.

Since he has undivided control over the future of his own position, the only thing there is to do is talk about it.

This post alone has caused the price of Grin to tank 50%. The price manipulation has to stop! Angry

All other fiat and crypto is going to zero. Watch out guys.

So it's like Grin's Doge?

It's like all coins and currencies ever, all stocks and all stores of wealth combined into one. It also happens to be the 3st implimentation of mimblewimble. What a time to be alive.

I mean - a parody coin, starting with the name.
