This is a specified time span between the blocks to which the network aspires.  More details in wiki: https://en.bitcoinwiki.org/wiki/42-coin.

Nova is supposed to re-open deposits early next month. And I am patiently patiently working on the DEXchanges: much more complicated than I understood, and very interesting.

EDIT: and do you know we have four undeveloped pairs on Tradesatoshi? -BTC, -DOGE, -LTC, -BCH

I used Tradesatoshi, had minor GUI issues (had to reload page), otherwise everything works. They used to have an open chat, it was first restricted with rules a few weeks ago, and now it has been removed(chat was mostly just FUD spam and p2p trade, and fortunetelling). I had a positive experience when I opened my support ticked. Overall good exchange but low volume of trade.

Whooo! I've finally started trialling Tradesatoshi.

One thing about 42 that really interests me is the way that it 'straddles' POW and POS. I see articles about ASIC-resistance and hard forks to outflank those, and [edit ETH's] intentions to go 'full POS.' So, do I understand correctly that we are nicely positioned -- certainly being deflationary -- to manoeuvre around these issues in coming years?

Existing PoS models are not suitable to go to full PoS due to 42 very limited supply and 0 block reward, only PoS based on CoinAge is working, but very slow and it can not be the main method of transaction confirmation. Low transaction costs work in 42 as a protection mechanism against ASICs. With the current tx fee, 42 mining will not be profitable until the price is $100m+ per one coin.

Thanks for your patience, Laser. My outfit -- you surely know some of them -- spend enormous effort analysing types of (rare) cryptos. I have devved at length on two.

Shall keep reading. (Found a 42 history that clarifies a lot of stuff, like the re-launch.) But the 'recipe' here is exciting.

Yup!!, Lasergun is one smart cookie!!!! 

I have been doing more homework on this coin simply because it fascinates me.  The coin is very similar to BTC with the added PoS aspect.  One thing that stuck out to me when I was doing some more homework is that this coin is divisible by 14 compared to BTC's 8.

I was directed toward this link: https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/20635/what-is-42coin-why-it-is-highly-priced

specifically, this comment:

So, basically, 42 is double to total supply according to this comment (and my own math).  I think that people would get more on board with this project if people understood this.  BTC is purely PoW and half the total supply of 'sats' compared to 'babelfishies'.  I am clearly not sure what to call it.

BTC total supply is: 21,000,000 to the 8th decimal is 2,100,000,000,000,000 sats.

42-coin total supply: 42 to the 14th decimal is 4,200,000,000,000,000 [to be determined]


On another note:

I see the roadmap has testing with this thread linked: https://bt.irlbtc.com/view/2480007.0

Can you update us on the status of this test that's been going on for over 6 months.  I see it is being traded on coinscontrol exchange (infrequently), but cannot really find much other information regarding the coin or its current utility.
