Htmlcoin – The cryptocoin that keeps defying the odds and all logic. By Doofy I’ve said it before Htmlcoin is an anomaly among the cryptocurrency world. Back in 2013 and 2014, I did a ton of altcoin mining – mainly scrypt coins, including Litecoin, Dogecoin, Zeitcoin, Procoin, Htmlcoin, and so many others. Many of those coins simply disappeared. Procoin, which touted itself as the cryptocurrency for small businesses just disappeared one day, rendering all coins immediately useless. Just par for the course.

Htmlcoin seemed even worse. The mining for these coins never increased in difficulty in the early days, netting millions of coins per day. I didn’t care.

The running joke in my head was that I’d finally become a billionaire, even if it was in a coin clearly destined to disappear. Trading it smartly with doge would result in getting more doge and more html. It was a great coin for playing with. Instead of disappearing, they decided to fix the coin.

HTMLCOIN (HTML5) NOW AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC Bitcoin. The future design of HTMLCOIN New Website may look like.

They changed the algorithm for mining and did a coin swap, kind of like a reverse split. I wasn’t a billionaire anymore 😦 but at least I still had a healthy amount. Dubbed html5 (despite still being htmlcoin officially), it was definitely seen as a much healthier coin. It traded for somewhat better amounts of doge and even litecoin at times. Over the years, I just held most of my amount, as it’s supposed to go “POS” in 5 years, which is interest bearing. Last few times I looked, its USD price was embarrassingly low (like $0.00000008). Then, over the last few months, it was subject to a 51% attack, which seems to open the block-chain to manipulation.

Ok, well, it was fun while it lasted, and it certainly outlasted all the other coins from back in the day. What’s that, you ask? Why is htmlcoin worth $0.000181 today (and trading for approximately 0.00000005 BTC – prices fluctuate)? Who the fuck knows? However, they’re fixing the coin AGAIN and doing a mostly 1-for-1 swap of the coin, so most people won’t lose anything.

1000000 htmlcoin today is worth $181 (or 0.05BTC, which is about $210). Man, if I still had 1,000,000,000 htmlcoins today, I could potentially trade it for.

If history has taught me anything about htmlcoin, it’s that it defies everything. Shitty original algorithm, 51% attack on newer version of the coin, and on the cusp of a second coin swap and update. And now it’s worth more than ever, and still slowly climbing. In closing, some htmlcoin holders might find themselves to be accidental millionaires before too long.

By simplexletalis You may have heard of HTML coin in the past. It was popular around the time of Ethereum's launch and made headway up until June of 2017 when a 51% attack occurred and the coin suffered a large drop in price. Since then, the price hovered in the 1-2 sat range until recently. Now, HTMLCoin is seeing a major come back. It surged 400% late august and appears to have no boundaries or limits. HTML's Dev has been active and ready to answer questions on their slack, basecamp and through various other means. I have been in contact with him myself and can tell the dedication to reviving this coin is real.

Soon, HTML coin will be undergoing what is called a 'Coin Swap.' This is a process where coins are transferred from one block-chain to the newly developed pre-mined chain. Don't worry, the exchanges will be in charge of this process and as long as you store your coins on one of them, you will automatically be funded with the new coins.

So what's the point of a coin swap? The community has spoken and it wants HTMLCoin to be bigger, better and faster. It wants a coin that can tackle the obstacles of various coins all in one.

That is what is happening now. Amando Boncales has his work cut out for him, but he is recruiting the best of the best to begin creating a development team, support team and marketing team to push this coin to the top of the list. If you want to get in on the ground level of a huge breakout, now's the time.

The new HTML coin will feature various improvements which can all be found on their website at Some of the main focuses however are: NEOSCRYPT to help maintain security and protect users and miners alike. Smart Contracts to make use applications on the blockchain. A complex EVM system that will provide the grounds for amazing developers to port applications/contracts/computing to the blockchain. With HTMLCoin previously being up to 155 sats, pushing that far again would make millionaires among the community.

I know I will be there, hopefully you will join us on this fantastic and exciting ride. HTMLCOIN: The “Little Guy” that isn’t Giving Up By Rich Chambers, B.A., M.A.

Director of Publications The Htmlcoin Foundation 1. Background I live on the east coast of the United States.

I am a family man. I suppose you could call cryptocurrency a hobby, a small one mind you, but still a hobby that I am interested in. Has your previous work helped spark your interest in cryptocurrency? My old boss (back in 2013) was very into Bitcoin and, to a lesser degree, Litecoin and Dogecoin. When he talked about all of this stuff, I was clueless. Still, his interest in it, and his constant quoting of the price of bitcoin, was enough to at least pique my interest. When was the, 'ah-ha,' moment for you?

It was less of an “ah-ha” moment and more of a 'wow, this stuff is everywhere' moment. I realized pretty quickly that everybody was making their own coins. I also realized that I had no idea how to acquire these coins. I didn’t have any of the required software or hardware to make it work.

So, I quickly learned about mining and pools, and started using available desktops (legally, don't worry) to start mining scrypt coins. If I had to be totally honest, as a dabbler in this stuff, it still mystifies me. At the most basic level, I understand the block-chain to be a 'public ledger' of private payments. I don't know if it has changed the world yet, but it surely isn't going away any time soon. If we suggest that BTC is the 'proof of concept' for all this, then that's one hell of a concept--$4000+ for one coin. How do you think Crypto-currency will benefit people? It will benefit people in a couple ways.

Firstly, it decentralizes currency. I can pay a person in China and there's no 'Well, how much is that in their currency?' Taking place. No calculations are necessary. It is worth the same everywhere. Secondly, there's almost no limit. I don't mean in regard to the number of coins, but to the possibilities.

All it will take to make HTMLCOIN valuable is for people to simply accept that it is. If you sell stuff and charge HTMLCOIN for it, you clearly think it's valuable. In turn, if I hold or have the coin, I probably think the same. You can set the price; I can pay it. As with almost any market, the people will decide.

In this case, the product is the currency itself. How did you find HTMLCOIN? HTMLCOIN was literally just on the list of 'new scrypt coins' that I saw one day on the Bitcoin Talk forums a few years ago. By the time I found it, I had already purchased a few dualminer USB dongles that were churning out 70kh/s.

They were supposed to do the sha-256 algorithm, but I could never get that to work. Alas, I digress. Still, with a handful of these USB miners and the desktops still doing their thing, I was getting 1-2 million HTMLCOINS per day.

It didn’t matter to me if they were ever going to be worth anything. I just liked seeing the big numberslol. I initially joined the community at large because I was interested in seeing opinions of the coin. Back in the early days, they weren't very flattering, but that was to be expected amidst the endless 'hey, here's a new coin that will ultimately go bust” attitudes. Are you a miner or trader with of HTMLCOIN?

My early mining days were almost comical. I was amassing so many coins. But here is where HTMLCOIN was a huge benefit for me. Because it was so easy to acquire and people were literally “giving” it away, I had no fear trading it in large quantities for other coins (namely Dogecoin).

It didn't matter, millions more were coming. I could get Dogecoin and then buy back some more HTMLCOIN at a much lower cost. Essentially, I was trading back and forth and increasing quantities of both coins. All the while, I was learning more about the cryptocurrency market and HTMLCOIN. Which do you find most inspiring about HTMLCOIN?

Honestly, the community is what I find to be the most inspiring aspect of HTMLCOIN. In order for a cryptocoin to thrive, there has to be an enthusiastic community. If there aren't people behind it, it will die. I have watched this happen to so many coins that had so many initial cheerleaders but no true community commitment. Watching the HTMLCOIN community never give up on the coin, and working to continually improve it, might be one for the books.:-) 8. How might HTMLCOIN change people's lives? If HTMLCOIN ever hits even 1¢ in USD, some people might find themselves 'accidental millionaires.'

Any additional thoughts you want to express to the HTMLCOIN community and to the world? I have been a supporter of HTMLCOIN since I first discovered it. Amando has been quite the promoter of this coin since the beginning. I have always felt like he has been nothing but sincere in his push for the coin.

And honestly, if he was not sincere, the coin would have disappeared in 2014 or 2015. But here we are in the latter half of 2017.The coin is still here and trading at the best price I've seen. I'm not going anywhere.

Keep doing what you're doing HTMLCOIN. Keep defying the odds and all your detractors.

I think it's refreshing to see that the 'little guy' isn't giving up. Respondent: Bitcoin Talk user id: DoofyMusic.
