HODL (Ħ)
The reason for this post it to bring a little attention to this gem of a coin and hopefully grab the attention of bigger exchanges. #HOdl has grown so much since launch, improved upon and now copied and imitated by other coins.
What is it?
HOdlcoin is just like Bitcoin, but it pays interest on every balance. This is to recognize the importance of HODLers and properly reward HODLing. If you lock an amount of #HODL as a term deposit, you can also get a bonus on the interest. The longer the deposit, the bigger bonus. The bonus is just a multiplier of the interest

"HOdl your nuts"
I got involved HODLing the beginning of March. It was my first wallet with mining integrated into it that really attracted me to the coin. Day 2 I had a couple employees approach me and say "something is HODLing on our computers". I told them "don't worry your little HODL, it's just me".
Great project, Bluehorseshoe loves to HODL.............
First heard about this project. Thank you! I will grab some coins to Hodl.
Great project, I've been mining and HOdling since day one. Thanks for posting this stoner19 and bringing much needed attention to this coin that has gone mostly under the radar due to not being listed on a better exchanges.
Happy to have you on board from the get-go @kushed. HODL is definitely one that has been under the radar.
uhm, ok sold. i mean, BUY?! I wnt to hodl some nuts!
Interesting idea. I suppose Steem power pays interest also. But sbd looks like an "interest"bearing coin with a combo of price stability and high accumulation rate in my view. Not a recommendation of course just an observation.
One of the thinks about HODL is the intent for longterm hodling. As with any PoS coin the longer you hodl the more you hear, but by locking up your HODL in term deposits you earn more the longer you lock it.
Its just cool to mine it on your own cpu - the real public coin! Great support in the community!
And yeah, thanks stoner!
Indeed a great mining opportunity! Thanks for the support! HOdl <3 U!
i have an old computer, any point in mining with this old lady?
It was even more interesting before the latest hardfork when they decided that they don't need miners anymore and added a 1 year period for miners before their coins become available for use. The coins of course gain interest in that 1 year, but it essentially has driven away miners and pools and the interest in the coin has further decreased. They favor HODLers that buy coins and keep them to earn interest, unfortunately with the very high interest rate and miners going away, the future of this coin is quite uncertain... so do a careful research what you might be getting into.
1 year is the same as the average weighted form for obtaining STEEM from POWER. Only difference is that you obtain STEEM weekly, as opposed to all at once. This probably stabilizes the market more so than HODL'ing, but who knows. It's an interesting experiment. HODL was technically first to market for long-term deposits; even if the idea for POWER was independent (which I believe it is), there is no way to prove that (beyond maybe using a time-stamping blockchain based record for the idea of a private project which would require revealing your private key to prove authenticity of an encrypted message, assuming you don't want details of the entire project known prior to its release).
First to market almost always has an advantage.
You may find it similar to Steem Power, but the problem is that most miners don't like the idea of not having control of the coins they mine. Some mine and sell immediately to cover costs, some mine and keep coins for a period of time, some may hold them long term. All of them want to be able to control their coins. Steem Power gives you some value and has some functionality on the steemit platform as you hold it, apart from the interest rate that increases your holdings, but mining HODL and being forced to wait for a year and in the end you just get more coins.
The problem is that by the time you get control of your mined coins there will be a lot of coins available on the market and the market will most likely not be able to take them as they are driving away some of their users and are hardly attracting new ones. There needs to be some other use for the coin other than just holding it for the high interest rate and there isn't for the moment. Most mining pools also stopped, there is just one new one that has brought a very small portion of the miners back for a second try, but it is questionable if they will remain for long - http://hodl.optiminer.pl
Correct, there is no immediate usage for coins held in deposit. It'd be interesting if one could trade deposit accounts on an open exchange, even if they are still locked up.
Essentially they are closing up more in favor of their existing HODLers instead of opening up to a wider audience and attracting new users to the coin. I was actively following it before the hardfork, mining, trading and holding (short term), but after they changed the rules I just lost interest and I suspect a lot of other people also did.
Being able to trade long terms deposits would be interesting, however I think that this is more reasonable to be implemented on the local wallet than on exchanges. Hardly seeing a more complex feature implemented any time soon when they still have not added the option to sort the term deposits in the wallet for months... :)
I'm about to go load up a wallet I forgot about.
What's The Latest Skinny
on this coin??
Its good to let people know about crypto currencies, but you left the most important info out for Hodl...... It has no value and there is no interest after their hard fork.
Miners have to wait for a full year after the block gets mined to your address before you can move the HOdls off from that address because coins are locked after mining. Many mining pools stopped using Hodl because of this issues. Interest in this currency (hodl) has faded after there hardfork. Lets get deeper, looking at the dates on bitcointalk (Hodl OP) since the hardfork for the mining hold issue comments have plummeted on there OP, interest in the currency faded, and most conversations are only about mining.
@greatness
your 100% right hodlcoin has no value anymore. not sure why this post got so much
wow you said it " you left the most important info out for Hodl"
exactly.....
thanks
I think this coin is still a hidden gem:) Worth to look at even in 2018. Many new things coming...
I don't think this post deserves such a big payout. Also as far as I remember FreeTrade wasn't a ProtoShares creator.
I stand corrected, I think FreeTrade was more involved in the mining aspect of ProtoShares.
Ideally, this post would have raised enough to pay for a listing at @bittrex, as the community has been demanding it for a long time, but your downvote has prevented this from potentially happening. Can you tell me exactly why you flagged it? As you can see there are a lot of other users who feel this is a great step forward for HODL, otherwise it wouldn't have received so many upvotes.
I flagged it because "I don't think this post deserves such a big payout".
And why does steemit community need to pay for it to be listed on bittrex? If there are no other sources of funding I have a very big concern about the future of this project.
@pierce-the-veil: I have seen similar concerns about this on the general web @val-a.
Due diligence is always rewarded.
Directly from the man himself, FreeTrade did in fact make ProtoShares.
Isn't the point of a currency for it to be used in transactions? The incentive here is literally to hold and hoard the coin, there's too many bitcoin hoarders as is.
Today I downloaded HODL and started mining
Hi I am having trouble getting onto the optiminer pool site do you know if it still working?
you better start solomining hashpower is still low, price goes up !
hilarious
Another shit coin great
