Merged Folding - We currently do not have a sound way for merged folding participants to distribute their tokens on our platform. The current system requires access to the LTB distributor which other merged folding participants do not have access to. For this reason I propose we put merged folding on hold until we have a more bulletproof way of operating it.

good episode, FoldingCoin mentioned too
i though she only talk about DASH

I may help with this (if I understand correctly - you have a list of transactions you need to send?). I've built a multi-send tool for CounterTools. I can make a customized version for FLDC for free.

One thing that seems to work for several coins is to use a bot (or a person with too much free time) to stabilize the price longer term and help the coin grow.

For example right now fldc @ ~76.

The market is trending up right now so the bot might put a medium buy at 70 and a smaller sell at 81 both trades likely to execute.

When the buy executes at 70, those coins are put for sale at various prices starting in the 80s, and when the sell executes at 81, those btc are used to place buys below 81.

One coin I follow was chaotic until someone did that. Now if you buy or sell that specific coin there is an instant counterorder placed. If you sell 0.1 btc worth than buys for that amount are instantly placed lower. Selling vice versa. Whoever did that seems to be making money and it seems to have stabilized a chaotic market. It would probably work well with fldc which has fair volume but wide spreads and not huge volatility.

I don't mean manipulation. When people look at the order book now they see a wide spread and indications that the market is too thin to trust liquidity.

Having a market maker would solve that and increase interest among speculators.

Any person who had knowledge of trading bots as well as resources to invest could fill the place of market maker and make a little money probably. I have neither computer programming knowledge nor resources or I would do it. It works for other coins.

I used to run Folding@Home alongside Seti@Home with my Pentium 4 machine, that was like many years ago...

Just had a brief look, interesting. Very interesting.

Merged folding is a great idea, there is very little reason to be in direct competition working on achieving the same goal.

If ETH hadn't stormed in last summer and dragged off all the GPU miners to it, Folding would have received a boost. Guess just have to wait for ETH to go PoS and all the juicy GPU power can be harnessed for good.
