Topic: Proof of Stake Coin List - page 8. (Read 49065 times)
The wiki for Colossuscoin needs to be redone since it's 100% Proof of Stake and has been since December.
Thorcoin, a revolutionary hybrid proof-of-work/proof-of-stake coin. With Thorcoin you are able to receive and send Thorcoin all around the world and back, to all of your peers including businesses, friends, and family. Thorcoin is a Scrypt Jane Hybrid which only can be mined using CPU's and GPU's. Feel safe with ASIC resistant Scrypt Jane.Traded on cryptorush.
Any details on Thorcoins yearly % and min/max age?
80% of those coins aren't 100% PoS..Peercoin...ColossusCoin..etc etc etc.
That's not the idea of the thread. It is to collect a list of coins that offer any amount of stake...

1% Premine, 20% POW then POS, no thanks.
Agreed. But I will add it to the list...

Just saw this in the [ANN] thread launching today ..

GhostCoin .. POW ( 1st 3 months ) then POS ..
Looks like a 'reverse' MINT clone ..
Stake % goes UP over time ( first 6 years )
20%/25%/30% two years at each stake %
Then 5%/year after the 6th year ..
Triff ..

(blackcoin is PoS)
to the OP It may be worthwhile to make a google spreadsheet to keep the new additions updated.
Great thread btw, I have 50 wallets and this made it easier to run through and put them all into a POS folder.

I'll look into it. It is a possibility. I was thinking about a simple webpage too.

Thanks for the heads up - could be worth watching.
Currently researching FlutterCoin.
Launched a few days ago - rocky start but seems to be stable now (i'll cut the dev some slack as this is not a copy and paste coin).
PoW, PoS and introducing Proof of Block (interesting).
Not much in the spec about PoS but looking at the code it seems to be 100% max yearly interest.
Wallet includes coin control (nice).
PoW rewards scales down over 8 years.
I also like the fact that dev is doing his best to stay below the radar and focusing on the code.
Promising - this may be the new coin I was looking for?
Mining FLT while net hashrate still low.

Edit: I asked dev about PoS in Flutter and he said it's the same as NVC except that he changed lower interest bound to 5%

Code:
// miner's coin stake reward based on nBits and coin age spent (coin-days)
int64 GetProofOfStakeReward(int64 nCoinAge, unsigned int nBits, unsigned int nTime, bool bCoinYearOnly)
{
int64 nRewardCoinYear, nSubsidy, nSubsidyLimit = 10 * COIN;
CBigNum bnRewardCoinYearLimit = MAX_MINT_PROOF_OF_STAKE; // Base stake mint rate, 100% year interest
CBigNum bnTarget;
bnTarget.SetCompact(nBits);
CBigNum bnTargetLimit = GetProofOfStakeLimit(0, nTime);
bnTargetLimit.SetCompact(bnTargetLimit.GetCompact());
// FlutterCoin: A reasonably continuous curve is used to avoid shock to market
CBigNum bnLowerBound = 5 * CENT, // Lower interest bound is 5% per year
bnUpperBound = bnRewardCoinYearLimit, // Upper interest bound is 100% per year
bnMidPart, bnRewardPart;

Anyoen know the % interest on NRS?
According to the beta code on github: 3% annual

i'm relatively new to crypto but this is a good summary of how my thoughts are beginning to crystallize (personally i'm not interested in a day trading approach)
also the reason why the only stake coins currently on my investment list are NVC, HBN, and PHS (recently added)
watching the resurrection of GrowthCoin closely
interesting that apart from NVC (about 2 years old) HBN, PHS and GRW were all launched about 7-8 months ago

I know I'm crossing threads here - giving advice in a thread that is just about the coin lists, but I can't help it. It is time to draw a line and raise a flag about stake and coins in general. There are too many making money by preying upon others.
HBN, PHS, GRW all were born from the first scrypt alt-coin frenzy that happened after LTC and NVC became popular. However with HBN & PHS you can see that the devs and community care about their coins. There is a core there - not the bubbling frenzy of other coins but a solid core.
The cornerstone of my stake portfolio is NVC, HBN, PHS, and TEK. Any stake investor needs to pick those 4 coins up. The ratio that you pick them up in is determined by how much risk you want to assume in your portfolio. I'll address this more in my other thread.
However, we can't just sit on our coins. As stake investors we need to do the best we can to promote and help those coins. Support bounty funds, and services, talk them up, find vendors, etc.
will be great to see a new coin designed using this model
if not i may consider refreshing my c++ skills and developing one myself

I'm on the fence about new coins. I think if we can promote the 4/5 core coins, and especially the coins with the smaller market caps, we may not need more coins. Think - if we can double or triple the market cap of the lesser coins, then the stake made also doubles and triples. We don't need other coins if we can make more on what we have simply by investing time into the current coins.
The only caveat to no more coins, may be coins with different algorithms. If someone comes out with a good stake (see above criteria) coin that is scrypt-jane, quark, or heavycoin-algo based - they may be worth watching/investing in.

A lot of new PoS coins are cloning MINT so obviously the MINT model seems to be popular.
Not sure I like the idea of only being able to effectively PoW mine for 5 or 6 weeks?
A more gradual shift from PoW to PoS seems to make more sense imho - from a long term investment coin perspective that is.
Thoughts?

IMO mint became popular, so people decided to clone it and see if they could pull off the same thing. And mint itself is just a clone of DOGE with some stake tacked on as an afterthought...gimmick.
In my opinion ALL coins should be both Work and Stake. Work secures the network and keeps a community active. It allows people who don't want to buy the coin outright to get some. Stake helps stabilize the price and rewards the holder of the coin for being loyal and using the commodity - ie not just dumping them as soon as they mine them, or as soon as the price jumps a little bit.
These flash in the pan coins - where you can only mine for a few weeks are just all noise and no substance. I bet they're a way for early adopters to make a ton of money before they are dumped. Look at mint and blackcoin right now - pump and dump.
Devs - coin makers - I'm calling you out.
- Stake should either be the NVC model - 100% yearly modified by stake difficulty - or 50+%
- Stake coins must have methods to contain inflation - destroy tx fees
- Stake age should be no greater than 30 days
Coins that don't pass the stake test use it as a hook to draw in the unaware. They throw words around like "investment," "gains," and "energy efficient." As a stake investor stay away from them. They will be ruled more by price fluctuation (pump and dump) than by stake and you will never recoup your investment through stake.
Coins need a community - miners plus stake holders grows the community.
Coins need to be rare - not billions of coins within a few weeks or months.
Coins need to be fair - not hugely rewarding early adopters.
Coins need to be supported - good and active devs.
Coins need to be stable - work and stake that last for years.
Coins that pass those tests are worth investment.

@StakeHunter, thank you for sharing - hopefully we can all combine our knowledge and make this list beneficial to all PoS investors.
I've been investing in Hobo for a while now and I'm really starting to like PoS coins.
Mainly because of what you've shared (in this post as well as your PoS Investments post) I'm currently researching Stones (looking good) and mining some Growth.
Also researching two new PoS coins - ECC and ZEIT
Both claiming a 25% year 1 interest rate...
Edit: both ECC and ZEIT seems to be MINT clones.
