Hello,

    Would someone be kind enough to put their Junkcoin node online for a little while so that I may join the network?

Best Regards,

The last Junkcoin dev I could find was called dreamwatcher, but I cannot find any up to date threads and the Junkcoin website is down now. Does anyone know if there is a current Junkcoin thread?


There is a thread but nobody ever posts to it.

I talked to the dev about 6 months ago and he said if the community ever came back that he would also come back.

He said last time he put work in the coin and the community left him hanging so this time he's not gonna do that.

Why don't you guys cut the massive dilution of 107 million coins down to maybe 21 million and lower the subsidy by half in order to allow mining for enough years in order to secure the network via PoW.

There's no need for over 100 million coins, that's much too dilutive and it scares off a lot of new investors who do look at the max cap (max dilution at maturity).  Maybe also throw in 1% PoS and you've got a nice, 1+ year old, proven and tested coin totally revamped and revived.

Lots of people will start looking for the older coins given most new coins are nothing but scams.  Older coins have better, larger communities and they're also much better distributed.

Just my 2 cents, JUNK was a catchy coin, it would be a shame to see it die while all these new ShitCoins scam people out of their money.  Follow DarkCoin's example, they cut their max cap from 88 million to 22 million and shot up to $14 per coin shortly after.

Cutting the max cap and the subsidy would be exactly like a corporation doing a huge stock BuyBack only JUNK doesn't have to spend any money doing it.  It's a brilliant and quick way to add instant value to any coin.

I hope the dev on this coin does something to increase the value for all longtime loyal shareholders.

good advice, Junk missed the boat at being the next LTC.

There is still capital, and still potential in this Junk Smiley

It's no shame to make algo adjustments and hardfork in order to survive.  Put it to the shareholders and see what they say.

ps if Dev or community leaders read this I can get you an actual Junk [PM]

Mature altcoins are never dead.

Indeed, we have so many new coins added with premined, or hidden blocks, for pump and dump... The Bittrex thread gives some insights about what happened...

Junkcoin have none of  these issues, and is mature... The price is low today, but who knows the future?


I remember the price was low before last Christmas, then it skyrocketed after the bitcoin rally. Perhaps it will skyrocket again after the next bitcoin rally.

What exactly are mature alt coins? I only think 2 alt coins where successful for a long time and that was namecoin and litecoin. no other as lasting as long as them.


IXcoin is nearly 4 years old. Was launched right after NameCoin and unlike NameCoin, iXcoin has never died or forked and is just as secure as NameCoin.

Yet nobody knows about it.  Very odd.

I hope that fair coins that are still out there and for a long time now; that are still operating, and still on the exchanges, will have a future.

The short term strategy that we see every week. A new coin is launched huge farms are already setup (they must already have the source code, and the pools code is ready), A pump and dump, and the the coin is dead, and the process is known as a a new scam coin. This strategy must have an end, they can't scam the same people every week; and now mining these coins don't worth the electricity...

JKC is following the usual path when it comes to altcoins, First the hype, then the dump. The Cryptsy dump was enough for me to personally step off the JKC market for life.

I dont see any manipulation, just someone dumped 500k which filled all the buy orders down to 2 sats.




Someone dumped 500,000 JunkCoins which is 5% of the total coins right now and they were happy getting 2 Satoshi when they could have gotten much much more?

I mean, why not try to get 50 Satoshi?  I think he would have sold most of it at 50 sats or higher.

Unless it was an accident but I don't think so given if you look at the buy side, there are now tons of orders for 10,000 and much higher.

That's new - until recently there were nowhere close to that many buy orders.

And on the sell-side, same manipulation now.  Lots of stacked sell orders.  I looked for weeks to buy some Junk and it took days to find just one 10,000K block - JUNK is a very difficult coin to accumulate.

I don't know, to me it seems like there is a big buyer now, but why?  This is an abandoned coin with no dev and I don't even know if it even has a thread.  lol

I'd like to know cause if there's a new dev I would consider buying some JUNK.

Someone just tried to game JUNK big-time today.

They Manipulated the price down from 130 Satoshi to 2 Satoshi.

I have no idea how someone could have done that so smoothly without any attention.

I actually bought a few hundred junk coins at 18 Satoshi so it wasn't some glitch, it really went that low.

There were no sellers at that price, just bots selling tiny blocks.

Now the price is back up at 130 Sats but I wonder what's going on - was that a fat finger trade or is someone trying to buy up a huge portion of JUNK?

Anybody have any idea?

Thanks!
