Thanks Pi, that was our feeling.  Basically the coin has gone through its initial "shake out" period.

Hopefully all the initial teething troubles will make this a stronger coin in the long-run!

Nice and fast blocks! Lots to get ;-)

Hi all.  Just wanted to make it official by posting here:  YACCoin is up and running.

We launched at ~1000 blocks on February 12th, had a great few hours of CPU miners being very happy before the pools sprung up and the normal launch hell broke lose.  We have successfully converted to Kimoto Gravity Well, and, of course, wish we had launched with it, but that is now history.

Pools came and went and came again.  We now have one stable public pool, at least one private pool, and many individual miners.

Please visit our website at http://www.yaccoin.org for more details.

As of this posting:

{
"blocks" : 14307,
"currentblocksize" : 1000,
"currentblocktx" : 0,
"difficulty" : 0.35780583,
"errors" : "",
"generate" : true,
"genproclimit" : -1,
"hashespersec" : 2253,
"networkhashps" : 17159634,
"pooledtx" : 0,
"testnet" : false
}

An artwork contest is informally under way and we expect to release at least one update (See the forum for the currently leading contender) that will just be a more formalized "coin look" release.

Basic info:

    Scrypt Algo
    1024 coins per block found
    23.5 years of coin generation
    2 year half life
    1.5 minute block time (90 second generation time target)
    Kimoto Gravity Well based difficulty adjustments
    8.4 Billion total coins
    100 confirmations for new blocks
    6 confirmations for transactions

We have a blockchain explorer available, the public pool, full DNSseed support (5 nodes), a forum, twitter account, Windows, Linux & MacOS wallets, full github source code access, etc.

Cheers!
