Guncoin: The U.S. Founding Fathers Would Be Proud
Enthusiastic community support and strong development are two crucial indicators of an altcoin with stay power. Guncoin has proven exemplary on both counts. Successfully launched May 1st, 2014, it has already entered onto the Top 100 most popular cryptocurrencies (based on market cap).
Although a Scrypt-based Litecoin clone (making it very convenient for altcoin miners with GPU rigs), its distinct marketing approach is anything but. As the name suggests, Guncoin is the first altcoin exclusively targeted at providing an easier transaction process for firearms and firearms-related accessory purchases; whereby catering to the unique needs of:
- Firearms dealers
- Gun Rights supporters
- Gun owners and enthusiasts
Moreover, it seeks to lower the barrier to entry for folks who might otherwise have no interest in cryptocurrencies; by providing them with a meaningful meme-based alternative to Bitcoin that they can identify with.
Guncoin Wholeheartedly Embraces The Second Amendment
As the battle rages on between those who seek to protect and defend the inalienable Rights expressed by the U.S Constitution and those who seek to destroy them, Guncoin rises to the call; offering a powerful means of augmenting the hard work and efforts of Constitutionalists and Defenders of Liberty.
At its heart, Guncoin wholeheartedly embraces one of the most important principles that the U.S. Founding Fathers pledged their lives, their fortunes and their sacred honor for: To ensure all future generations the ability to defend themselves from government tyranny via the Second Amendment. Not surprisingly, it has been greeted with passionate enthusiasm, as well as the typical hatemongering and trollism to be expected with such a controversial yet timely altcoin.
According to the innovator of Guncoin, who wishes to remain anonymous, the launch went flawlessly with lots of community support and is already on four exchanges in just the first week of launch. He also privately shared that some enthusiasts are already selling firearms and accessories for Guncoin.
In the short time since the launch, the Guncoin Team has fervently ramped up awareness and has accelerated related project expansion. In addition to ongoing development and a high-velocity advertising campaign, they’ve also launched a variety of related projects including:
- Android wallet creation,
- A Guncoin Firearms Auction
- A Charity Drive,
- And paper wallet creation for local Gun Shows.
It is this level of focus, dedication, passion and enthusiasm that truly sets a brand new altcoin apart from the countless pump and dump schemes far too common within the Bitcoin ecosystem. Even more promising, is that Guncoin already has a huge fan base of staunch supporters and is rapidly growing by the day.

Few topics inspire as much passion as the Second Amendment to the U. S. Constitution. The natural right of a citizen to keep and bear arms is both political and contentious. Despite judicial clarification gun control will remain a sensitive issue as 'pro-gun' lobbyists continue to engage ideologically with 'gun-control' lobbyists. The ambiguity around definitions within the amendment and the original intention of the framers does not help. Although, given the divisive nature of the topic, crystal clear clarification probably wouldn't help. In this spirit of 'pro-gun' constitutional....
