I think I'll invest a specific amount in VERTCOIN
Can you explain exactly how VERTCOIN is being protected from coming ASIC Huh?
Read the first page, there is more info on it
Of course I read it
my question is ASIC machines with 10 MH/s at LTC
mining VERTCOIN with 5 MH/s Huh?
or will not be able mining VERTCOIN?
all infos in op or on the website:
From: http://vertcoin.org/Vertcoin-DavidMuller.pdf
Scrypt was utilized by Litecoin to try and deter ASIC use because large memory requirements are the
best way to try and make ASIC financially unfeasible. Litecoin held out for a while, but the original
memory requirements in the barebone litecoin distribution were just not high enough to lock out ASIC
completely.
Vertcoin has now been released as the logical evolution of Litecoin and introduces what's known as
"Adaptive N‐Factor". The N‐factor component of Scrypt determines how much memory is required to
compute the hashing functions. Vertcoin N‐factor increases with time to stay one step ahead of any
possible ASIC development.

this does not answer my question ...
whether it will be possible the new ASIC machines mining VERTCOIN

even with low values ​​.... and how can we be sure that this will not happen as yet not available ASIC machines on the market

What will happen when the funding limit is not reached?
Will someone from the dev team go to the convention in any case and just pay the rest by himself or will the coins be given back?

Hey guys,

I'm actually looking to get a few logos made for a little business I'm running.  I'm really not to sure of the process of asking someone to make me a logo if they provide watermarked samples before the finished product or whatnot but I'm willing to pay 40 VTC for a professional job and 10+ variations for multiple purposes.  If anyone is interested feel free to PM me. 

Hey send a pm to lukemax:

he made some nice logos for our company website, maybe he can help you.

Devs have been pretty silent these last few days, hopefully working on big things Smiley

Something interesting to note, even though the price has bounced around between $1.50-$2.00
just on cryptsy alone vert still has the 5th most btc volume of the 130+ alts they trade..

1. doge 2k+ btc volume
2.litecoin 392 btc
3. mint   271 btc
4.protoshares 134 btc
5 vtc 127 btc.. so at todays rates, on cryptsy alone roughly $70,000 is changing hands in vert/day
while not as high as we'd all like to see, its still a fair amount of trading going on

next closest is quark at 100 btc
and maxcoin at 92

after those it goes down significantly, into the 60's and below for the "lesser" coins


In addition to volume, I think it is also very important to look at liquidity.  This is going to be based on the number of exchanges that trade VTC, the number of currencies that can be traded for VTC, and the total book orders.  Taking this into account I think VTC should easily be in the top 10 in terms of total market cap in very short order.

Yes sorry for my lack of activity round here the last couple of days, there's still a lot going on behind the scenes (which is actually why I haven't been around so much here) - we'll be opening up a public project-management board soon so everyone can see what we're working on easily.

Volumes look pretty healthy - what with the MtGox disaster, this is a good time to be mining - the volatility in cryptos is pretty nice when you have a longer-term view of the value of what you are mining.

Is it Good to join new small Pool or Some big pool. My Point is Bigger pool is finding block faster because of hash rate but pay ultimately will be same if small pool will find block or big pool. I mean when it comes to distributing shares, everyone end up with same amount as small pool or large pool.


I just opened a pool name as DAMNPOOL.com just few days back. It has everything few of biggest pools are offering. Powerful  dedicated servers, SSD drives, DDOS resistant, and for Corporate users or for students who can't mine at port 3333 (mineable at port 8080). It is created with the help of friend and will be friendly pool.

So Join DAMNPOOL.com and make it DAMN COOL

36 BTC Buy Wall for 2966 at Poloniex (12166 VTC) Mother of Jesus Lamb Fish
All that BTC must have been where the mtgox funds went to.   I do wonder on the advantages each altcoin including vtc might have over btc or not, maybe one is the sucessor to the throne
