Yes, huntercoin of course if great. HOWEVER this coin is not about innovation, it is about deliberate scamming.

We can't expect the noobs to stop mining copy and paste clones but we can aim to shoot down the worst offending outright scams on here.

All of them in the last six months have just been ways for the developer to get rich off of speculators.  Trash coins.  And then on the other hand there is NxT which is addressing real issues, with a real code, so in the future it might even take on bitcoin!!!

Well, yes, but there are a few exceptions. Some devs seem to make coins for fun. Take for example BEECOIN which i support, i can see no way the dev made ANYTHING at all from the launch or this coin at all.
However yes most do not have innovation.  So there are a few that are not scams nor really made to enrich the dev at all.

But let's just keep this thread to only naming and shaming total scam coins with evidence to support our claims.

dont forget the re release of mnc..huge premine on first release and then change a logo and new coin... pump it on release and scam away...


A lot of people mentioning this one.... i luckily missed it, wasn't really aware of it until hazard mentioned it before in the other thread.

Looks like ruby scam and that app one are fading .... good bye scammers.
They probably screwed some noobs out of BTC and electricity... but hopefully they will have died out soon.

They will be back with a new coin.... let's hope they decide to be a little more fair next time.

I vote for smartcoin, the biggest pump and dump of the last month probably.

And maybe mintcoin if this coin wouldnt work and dev will say only sorry, IPO melted down, no reason to repair it.

Almost all coins which were released the last days/weeks.
Maybe it's more useful to make a list of the good ones, because this list is more manageable.

Good, fair & promising coins for example (my personal impression):
Vertcoin
Premine Coin
Microcoin
Myriad Coin
InsanityCoin
Mintcoin
Leafcoin
Karmacoin
Huntercoin

Let's though try to keep this as just a warning page for serious scams that come along. Not about coins we think are good.
