Why would BC have a higher market cap than mintcoin with 3x-6x smaller community? Smells of pump manipulation to me.

I think the higher BC marketcap shows more affulent speculators are vested in large holdings BC compared to MINT. The 5-week PoW stage vs 1-week for BC ensured far better distribution, as did MINT's lower price of entry. It's sort of like 50% of the entire wealth of the US is held by 1% of the population. I think the 20% stake of MINT is also viewed as inflation of an already far greater supply of currency.

I've completed all of the cosmetic and translation work in the wallet. I've begun work in the mintcoinj library. As thisisit mentioned, this portion is slow going but progress is being made. I have made the code changes to allow outgoing peer connections on the main mintcoin network. Currently I'm working through some protocol & deserialization exceptions attempting to download the blockchain. Any updates to the mintcoin wiki in the form of protocol specifications and testnet configurations (if any) would be greatly appreciated. Keep checking the URL of my original post for updated screenshots.









Oh wow. That's great news! From what I understand this is fairly substantial technical undertaking. I applaud your efforts! Oh wow. That's great news! From what I understand this is fairly substantial technical undertaking. I applaud your efforts!

All coins are already in circulation though. It's like saying, "hey we're done! Come buy our coin, it's better than bitcoin!"



It's just funny to me, lol, I mean literally funny. All coins are already in circulation though. It's like saying, "hey we're done! Come buy our coin, it's better than bitcoin!"It's just funny to me, lol, I mean literally funny. \

Cool. I guess I'll get paid in MINT for a few days to add some buy pressure to MINT.

From a purely currency perspective, MINT is a far more sustainable concept IMO. However I do think MINT may have shot themselves in the foot by incorporating such large stake percentages for the initial years into an already inflated money supply. A flat 5% seems more reasonable and it's a figure people can relate to. 20% seems like a banana republic style inflation rate.
