Getting nodecoins automatically is really cool. But someone explain to me when real nodecoins start what is going to give them value? Isn't it a false
assumption that miners will forge to get nodecoins?
Right now miners have so many options of which coin to mine and they choose based on how
easy the difficulty is and how much they can pump and dump it for.
That's why new coins get mined quickly. The miners know there will always
be someone dumb enough to think "ejaculate coin" will be the next big thing and everyone is going to use it to buy groceries so therefore I must
buy some on cryptsy.
What reason would miners have to "mine" nodecoin? Who's going to buy them?
It's only a TEST !
Duh, read the bold part. Its a test now, I'm talking about when we are live on main and nodecoins start for real.
imagine you could mine nodeBitCoins, real easy and cheap. What would this do? RAISE IN PRICE because of arbitrage.
nodecoin value will follow NXT value, and if you mine them, you will get some.
Hey brooklynbtc,
hmmm I kinda get what you're saying. I am no expert but if you see it and James who obviously gave birth to it sees it then I can't
say anything except I hope it does what its suppose to because that would be brilliant if it did.
all these alt coins DO NOT have VALUE because they are new and cool (they BUBBLE for those reasons)
the reason any coins, crypto or fiat , (especially PoW coins) have value because WE decide that the value of what went into making them is TRANSFERRABLE and VALUABLE to others in free exchange
Nodecoins are valuable because they will be paid out to nodes who are serving to support the network.
Imagine if the mobile phone company said we're not going to build ANY towers, BUT if you run a tower at your house, we will pay you for doing this.
NXT is decentralized, so there is no COMPANY to build the towers. There is just users. So nodecoin will PAY them all to secure the network.
Forging is the same idea, except that forging proves the blockchain, and with PoS you need to HOLD coins to make coins.
PoW, like in nodecoin, will allow anyone to point their computer, pi, cubbie, or tv stick and no matter how much NXT, you can just get paid daily for mining nodes.
I've had it online for 90 minutes and pulled in 40 nodecoins..
