I'm interested in investing in vertcoin, but I have one concern: Is there anything stopping other scrypt coins from implementing Adaptive N-Factor, thus diminishing the appeal of vertcoin?

Other coins can hardfork to variable-N but the disruption, inconvenience and market uncertainty that comes with a hardfork is a big disincentive. It's why I personally pushed so hard for our fork to happen _early_, before we had issues with difficulty strandings, and before VTC got so big (ie. even now, and certainly in future) that doing so would be more disruptive.

So no, there's nothing preventing them from doing it, but there are considerable reasons not to do so as well.

I think the core issue there though is, why would VTC clones diminish the appeal of VTC? BTC hasn't been dimished by PPC/NMC/FTC etc, and LTC hasn't been diminished by DOGE/MEC/WDC etc. In fact, if anything, they have been strengthened by contrast - the alts are seen as the speculative, small-cap gambles, or what people mine to sell, wheras BTC and LTC have become the reserve currencies that people are comfortable holding in.

VTC is unusual, in that enough people realised early that holding in it would be the right decision. I think that's because of the dev support behind it, because it's not premined, and because of the lack of hype - it doesn't need it.



Thanks for explaining. I'm sold.

how much of this coin you can make in one day with 1 mh/s?

Probably about 10 off the top of my head. The irc bot in #vertcoin on freenode can tell you, just type !perday 1000 in the channel and it will respond.

Around 8-10 at this difficulty i think.

Of course they *could* hard-fork into it. Bitcoin could hard-fork into it too.
Not very realistic though, for a lot of reasons.

Yes, all things have their time. One day, VTC devs will be resisting the people saying "hardfork VTC onto XXX cool new thing". Hardforking an established coin with a massive userbase is not a trivial undertaking, and the risks and costs can so easily outweigh the benefits once you're the size of LTC for example.

Those guys will never hardfork, and I don't blame them - being called a conservative old fuddy-duddy when you're responsible for not fucking up something with that much of other peoples money invested in it is a compliment.

Just opened new pool (vardiff, proportional, 0% fee)

https://www2.coinmine.pl/vtc/
Primary Node: mine1.coinmine.pl:6350

Hey, thanks.
I really like coinmine.pl pools, they are stable and fast.

Someone took down the 0.01 wall on coinedup.com. Looks like it got all bought out. Along with that 29 BTC at 0.0097.

Now Cryptsy and coinedup can be price synced. The path was made clear.

I had a look into the Blockexplorer zo check how much coins are generated and how good KWD works.

There are around 30-35 Block / h = Blocktime of around 110 seconds
Estimated is 150 seconds


Yes, a couple of days back it was coping with (what I thought at the time was) a rapid growth of hashrate. This kind of explosion, you wouldn't actually want it to adjust so fast - the issue is, the blocktimes could be short because of variance then KGW would actually strand the network through overadjusting. There's a lot of smoothing built in to make sure that doesn't happen. Blocktimes will "catch up" and extend, but it might take a few more hours, and if hashrate increase (and it's 2nd derivative) keep increasing like this, somewhat shorter blocks (like you said, ~75% of expected blocktime) might happen for a while, which will only serve to encourage more miners - you get the picture.



Thanks for explain this Boris.

This is the question of the day. ^^^ Anyone?
Can other coins hardfork into Nfactor?

I was wondering this myself. As I said earlier I think ALL new Alts will adopt ASIC proof coding after seeing Vertcoin
get this big this fast.

Vert can still be the LTC(BTC) killer. But it will be amazing to see all new ALTs become clones of VERT.

Of course they *could* hard-fork into it. Bitcoin could hard-fork into it too.
Not very realistic though, for a lot of reasons. Every miner would need to change their mining software, and since that won't happen immediately, you'd run on a pretty ugly dual chain for a long time. Transactions getting lost, double spends all over the place...

No, I don't think that will happen anytime soon.

I sent some cashcoin and vert to crypsty about 5 hours ago and neither has shown as pending.

I wonder if cryptsy is keeping the coins to manipulate the market? It happened the same with many new hot coins added to cryptsy.

Same here, initially a few VTC got through (was on Cryptsy about an hour after sending it), but the batch after that is taking well over 8 hours now and it doesn't even show up as 'pending'.

That'll teach me. Back to coinedup then. Would be nice if another exchange with a decent volume stepped in. Coinex.pw maybe?

What is wrong with Cryptsy I don't get my 32,2 VRT I deposited in my Cryptsy account, it's not even in pending deposits, it's over 8 hours now and support only asked for additional information and I gave that and from there on nothing. I'm not a Cryptsy new user, I made a lot of succesfull transactions in the past. Anyone know anything about deposit problems?
