Can someone send me a NVC lol

There are no 1M of coins. So, this wall can't be broken anyway.

I think even with correct algo, with solo mining you see no stale rate until a block is found,
and perhaps network connection is all the time equivalent to 90% stales and there is only
very small chance to get the block. No way to know it.

So, pool are a necessary middleman.

Of course, if you can find valid block every 10 minutes...

Question: Why is the client telling me that the trust nodes are outdated? This could be a problem, because I cannot download and verify the blockchain. Could someone point me to a fix?

All the coins NVC mined Balthazar (110,000 coins) are in the guarantee fund exchange BTC-e.com

Nothing compared to the initial 110k.

I think we can also assume the hardware mining the initial 110k did not just "switch off" after the 110k.

I'd be willing to bet closer to 200k is in the same person(s) hands - so about 74% of the currency (currently).

Im going to put up a proofofstake.com page with NVC metrics later, this should indicate all of the above.

It seems that you forget --scrypt option.

110k of 273k is not "more than 50%". Also, don't forget about mining... Now network creates approximately 2000 new coins per day, for example.

I did solo mining Feb 11 - Feb 12 and all was done. I found more than 130 blocks with 24,49 - 20,37 reward. (9 Mh/sec)
But since Feb 13 it was rejects only.
Now mining is working fine with coinotron.com (less then 1% rejects) (I also tried http://novapool.zapto.org/ but got 50% rejects on February 13, but pool is alive and working now)

No one ain't got time for that shit.

That's your problem, guy? Why did you hate LTC so much?
