How exactly would one scam a mining coin? The term 'scam' gets tossed around too casually these days when there's little else to say. Did we call Bitcoin Cash and Bitcoin Gold scams when they launched? Let's focus on constructive dialogue and innovation instead of baseless accusations.
No. At least BCH is sha256 whereas BCG is equihash and yes I consider both to be scammy in that their names were chosen to confuse newbies and ride on the coattails of
BTC. They are still considered to be crap coins by most folks.
Throw in that "Bitcoin Core" is generally recognized as being the
software used for Bitcoin and is
NOT a coin, leads to the conclusion that you intentionally named your crapcoin to deliberately confuse newbies.
Lastly, this area where you posted (twice) is strictly for Bitcoin - ya know - sha256. Have requested mod to move this to the correct altcoin area.
Just to pile on...
Bitcoin Cash & Bitcoin Gold were forks of the Bitcoin blockchain by people who wanted Bitcoin to go in a different direction and had specific plans so they have some legitimacy.
There is, however, a long history of coins adding "light" "dark" "cash" etc to well known crypto brand names. Most have disapppeared into the dust because they had nothing new
to offer and were just trying to capitalize on the brand.
If this new coin had an original name it would be just another shitcoin, which some consider scammy anyway. Using the name Bitcoin was obviously intended to deceive,
making this unquestionably a scam.
It doesn't belong in altcoin either.
