I'd definitely buy some but I'm on the run 🏃.



FYI, iXcoin has never been pumped either. Just the 2013 spike like ALL coins had and a few stress tests I ran. It's gonna be 6 years old in April - oldest scam/pump-free coin in the world.

I would like to build a list of them.



Until now, I know:



- Bitcoin (adoption unsure, still low miner support)

- Litecoin (signalling just started yesterday, too early to draw conclusion)

- Viacoin (planned, but still no signalling)



Are there more? I'll update the OP if I find more (even the smallest ones), feel free to suggest some. (If there is already a thread about this, point me to it).



VertCoin is based on their latest blog:



Quote

The Vertcoin Development team has been busy the last month working on updating our wallet to the latest Bitcoin core with Segregated Witness (segwit). If youre not familiar with segwit you can read the benefits and purpose here ( https://bitcoincore.org/en/2016/01/26/segwit-benefits/). With that being said we are excited to announce that everything is working as it should on the test-net ,and if time permits we should have the new release ready sometime early next week, if not sooner. This should serve as a heads up to miners and pools since we will need a 75% consensus for segwit to activate. Please spread the word.



Thanks,

It seems a bit unclear as in the thread there is no concrete info, but for now I put it in the "Activated" section.



It was 95% of the blocks mined in the last 2016 blocks, like Bitcoin has.



CSV, Segwit and BIP65 timeline:

 Signal: Miners will be able to signal that they are willing and able to enforce csv, segwit and BIP65 starting at the beginning of the first 2016 block retarget period on or after 21 January 2017 (UTC). In short signalling started on block 1435392 which was on 21 january 2017

 Lock-in: Once 95% of blocks in a 2016 block long period have signaled that their miners are ready to enforce csv, segwit and BIP65 then csv, segwit and BIP65 will lock-in  meaning that unless the blockchain is rolled back at that point, csv, segwit and BIP65 will become active. In short Lock-in happend on block 1437408 which was on 23 january 2017

 Activate: After another 2016 block period, csv, segwit and BIP65 will activate, allowing miners to produce blocks containing csv, segwit and BIP65 transactions on Groestlcoins mainnet. In short Activate happend on block 1439424, which was on 24 january 2017.



So yes, it is activated since 24 january 2017. It was, like Bitcoin has.CSV, Segwit and BIP65 timeline:Miners will be able to signal that they are willing and able to enforce csv, segwit and BIP65 starting at the beginning of the first 2016 block retarget period on or after 21 January 2017 (UTC).Once 95% of blocks in a 2016 block long period have signaled that their miners are ready to enforce csv, segwit and BIP65 then csv, segwit and BIP65 will lock-in  meaning that unless the blockchain is rolled back at that point, csv, segwit and BIP65 will become active.After another 2016 block period, csv, segwit and BIP65 will activate, allowing miners to produce blocks containing csv, segwit and BIP65 transactions on Groestlcoins mainnet.So yes, it is activated since 24 january 2017.

bitcoin blocks almost full, they have to do something to put more tx into one block. But in altcoins blocks are empty....

You can even have a solid argument for Litecoins but other coins you ask yourself why do they even need SeqWit, some don't even have a daily trade volume of $1000, so why do you want to implement SeqWit You can even have a solid argument for Litecoins but other coins you ask yourself why do they even need SeqWit, some don't even have a daily trade volume of $1000, so why do you want to implement SeqWit

Certainly it is worth researching the proposal of each of these cryptos and what plans the developers have for the future. I think the hype will intensify after big coins, like Bitcoin and Litecoin, are closer to activating SegWit.
