Wouldn't that defeat the whole purpose of a finite supply cryptocurrency ?

ok but what about if we go with the same idea (mining everything into a central wallet, giving miners a small portion, etc..)

then we start the trading a certain amount at a particular Ask.  and then a certain amount at a higher ask, etc..

eventually create a market of sorts

Each mined coin should be linked to the US dollar.  So what you put in you will be able to withdrawal (minus 1% fee)
We already have that, and there's no fee.  The US Dollar.  $1 always equals exactly $1.

I'm not saying you can or can't...but why would you tie a coin to this thing?

part of the reason why BTC and gold have done so well is because people want to run away from the dollar, not to it.

your not thinking of the big picture

we could call it Dope Coins

cause people don't wanna have to invest in a wild and unstable crypto coin when buying their shit

Maybe the way to mine would be playing the knockout game. One knockout would = one coin.

The name of the currency does'nt matter. As Beetcoin says. People want to get away from the current currencys. People also does'nt want to get involved with the bank aswell due to fees and taxes etc.

Would also call the currency "retardocoin" as freethinking2013.

Convince me instead of coming up with names for the currency.

They already made an inflationary Bitcoin, it's called Quark.

As far as I'm concerned, you can stick Quarks where the sun don't shine, I'm not interested in having my store of value inflated away at any percentage.

the idea of these kind of currencies is to be independent. So no 1:1 link to any curreny like the dollar, no centralized, etc.
thats what is going wrong with currenty fiat currencies and what shoud be prevented

Would'nt that force the banks to get involved? Dont want anything to do with them.

why would you say that?

You fundamentally misunderstand what mining is.
