So apparently today is the day where new Canadian based exchange "Vault of Satoshi" will be adding NMC to their list of coins for Trade. This opens up a new NMC/USD category and make NMC purchase directly with USD easier for North Americans now! Hopefully Virtex will be next to list NMC! http://www....

After I have read this article¹ (Smart Property, Colored Coins and Mastercoin) on coindesk I guess that Namecoin is obsolete. I have read about the possible use cases for Namecoin² and as far as I understand coindesk, it tells that Bitcoin version 0.9 will have the same features. Well the differenc...

21 million. Exactly same specs as bitcoin with the many bonuses it offers and can potentially offer in the future. Not sure how you couldn't find the specs though since if you type namecoin in google the first thing that pops up is this lol http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Namecoin

No namecoin is supposed to gain in value over time just like bitcoin. Not exactly sure how it works but im sure one of the devs can explain it a little better. As I understand it though, as the difficulty of mining of NMC increases over time the cost to purchase a .bit domain is lowered as well. Rig...

This although sounds dumb to most people here.. is SPOT ON.. Instead of Namecoin-qt - on namecoin.info, it should say Wallet (and maybe namecoin-qt less emphasized):) Also in threads - example, the namecoin-qt original thread (which i made ffs) doesn't even say wallet in the title lol - i so dumb H...

Good page! And I agree if namecoin.info is supposed to be the main namecoin website then it needs to be updated and have a more professional look to it and marketed towards people who dont fully understand crypto but are slowly getting into it. Like why does it show (Mac binary - ?). Is the namecoin...

Namecoins offer a real intrinsic value unless bitcoins are doing wasting only energy and Namecoins are as rare as Bitcoins. This means Namecoin could reach Bitcoins value - it depends only on the market, which decides to use Namecoins or not and this depends on a good marketing of Namecoins. I agre...

namecoin.org is using a script I wrote. The inaccuracy wasn't due to only having 3 pools; it's due to the fact that it was using the ratio of BTC/NMC difficulties, which only update every 2 weeks (and not at the same time). BTC difficulty had just updated; NMC hadn't yet; this caused all pools to a...

Hello, This whole namecoin being 51% vulnerable is not correct and is based on someone looking at the pie chart on namecoin.org which was not updated with the correct hashing power distribution. Yesterday it was only showing only 3 different mining pools in the pie chart therefore making it seem lik...
