What is Titcoin?

Titcoin is a cryptocurrency for the adult community. It is exactly what you would expect from a currency called Titcoin!  

Titcoin can be used for:

• Paying at adult online stores
• Motivating girls to post nudes for crypto
• Tipping on webcam sites
• Investing money in the power of tits

... etc.. You can basically use Titcoin for anything you like! Only your imagination is the limit.  You can find a more detailed list of Titcoin use cases here: https://github.com/titcoin/doc/wiki/Benefits

Titcoin is fun, but it is not just fun! It is also serious. Titcoin is closely following the Bitcoin Core development in order to achieve high software quality and robustness. We're employing unit tests and regression tests to ensure continuous quality during development. The main difference of Titcoin compared to Bitcoin is a faster block time that allows us to compensate a lower transaction volume with higher transaction speed, and a different retargeting algorithm.


History

Titcoin (TIT) was founded in early 2014 by the entrepreneurs Edward Mansfield and Richard Allen. It was one of the very original altcoins, only a few different cryptocurrencies were widely known at that time (Wikipedia). Titcoin received a lot of media attention in 2014 (see https://github.com/titcoin/doc/wiki/Media-coverage).

In April 2016, the Bittrex account of the Titcoin founders was hacked and all project funds were stolen (Source). They decided to quit and started looking for other developers interested in taking over Titcoin development. One year later, in May 2017, Titcoin development was finally handed over to a company called "Joy Toilet", but they never did actual development work on Titcoin.

In Q3 2018, the owner of Joy Toilet (called "Doop") started facing financial issues and sold his access to the official Titcoin accounts to a different cryptocurrency project named TittieCoin, including Twitter, Github and Bitcointalk. TittieCoin then created a new pre-mined chain, claimed the "TIT" ticker for it and asked Titcoin holders to "swap" their coins. The swap was carried out by the TittieCoin developers themselves and they did not burn the received Titcoins.

Parts of the Titcoin community did not agree with this approach and decided to continue the original Titcoin. A new Titcoin wallet based on Bitcoin 0.16.3 was released by Titcoin community member Gandalf86 on Nov. 9, 2018. As of 2019, TittieCoin has rebranded itself to "Limitless VIP" and is no longer associated with adult themes.

In June 2019, community member "zolette" created the subreddit ShowMyTitCoin on Reddit as a place where girls can receive free titcoins for uploading nudes. As of June 2020, our subreddit has over 9000 subscribers and hundreds of girls have installed the Titcoin wallet in order to receive their first titcoins!

A new Titcoin wallet that activates various Bitcoin softforks (including SegWit) was released on July 20, 2020 by Gandalf86. (Announcement)


Roadmap

The current Titcoin wallet is being developed on this Github repository: https://github.com/titcoin/titcoin

The following goals have been achieved:

• Developed a new Titcoin wallet based on Bitcoin 0.16.3 that is fully compatible with the existing Titcoin network
• Released binaries for Windows, Mac OS and Linux
• Extensive test suite, including all tests inherited from Bitcoin
• Created a new homepage: https://www.titcoinproject.org/
• Activated various Bitcoin softforks (SegWit etc.) to turn Titcoin into a modern cryptocurrency
• Getting listed on new cryptocurrency exchanges

Short-term goals are:

• Use native "lightweight" mode by default for the graphical wallet
• Rebasing to Bitcoin release 0.22, activation of the Taproot softfork

Long-term goals are:

• Adjustments to the Titcoin wallet to support live cam (tipping) scenarios better
• Native Android wallet based on lightweight mode
• Integration in multi-coin mobile wallets
• Reproducible builds based on Guix
• And of course, being accepted as a payment method by adult sites and online stores, and becoming the No.1 tipping method in online adult communities!

Best regards, Gandalf86
