I do agree that many altcoins are "pump and dump", as i have been a miner for years now. But also a lot of these altcoins never became incorporated and masked their identities, IPs, ext... We are fully open with who we are, with pictures to our names and we are 100% compliant with US laws, we are a registered non profit with my name and information on their.

That being said, we are held accountable for our actions as many other altcoins are not, which is how they get away with scamming people.

Even if we do fail in the future, we have at least brought the idea of Folding to many miners who had never heard of it before. Look at our team, http://folding.extremeoverclocking.com/team_summary.php?s=&t... but since we allow other team members to earn FLDC, we just hit 21 million FAH credits yesterday making us the 6th fastest FAH team in the program. That is an accomplishment in itself :)

Your lack of an IPO doesn't imply pump and dump. Making an altcoin that is deceptive and speculative.

"Mine Medicine, Not Hashes" implies that this is somehow useful for medicine. It really is just a pump and dump where a portion of the money goes to protein folding.

Actually non of the money goes towards protein folding, its the power of the folders that does. All of the FLDC (money) goes directly to those that fold.

As for the IPO, we dont need one. Since a counterparty asset is very easy to create, our overhead is low. Thats why we are running a fundraiser, we plan on implementing additional features, but really no features are required to distribute FLDC. The features will help better the currency and the economy surrounding the currency, but unless people wish to give us money to do these things, then we will simply keep coding ourselves and distribute FLDC everyday.

Other blockchains require a lot of maintenance and patches, we do not. Almost no overhead

What else could you possible think I meant when I said the money goes towards protein folding?

You have the Bitcoin blockchain as overhead and you have the security of the Bitcoin blockchain, however you have created a speculative asset that is Bitcoin plus a mandatory tax for protein folding.
