This business of having 4 threads is getting ridiculous. When new people google VNL ann coin vanillacoin, they get 4 results and are confused. Can someone get moderator to delete closed threads and get search engines on the right thread please.

On it's way and they are locked already.

Vanillacoin
cryptographic currency

Vanillacoin is not a clone of Bitcoin or Peercoin, it was engineered from the ground up and is designed to be innovative and forward-thinking. It prevents eavesdropping and censorship and has security in mind. It also promotes decentralized and energy efficient network transactions at sub second speeds.




NOTICES


Position open for an experienced C++ engineer. Scroll down for additional information.
