What is Vestacoin?
Vestacoin, aptly named after the roman goddess Vesta. A goddess that embodied family and community- So too does Vestacoin. The purpose of our coin is to empower micro communities, organizations and even families. We envision an application so easy to use- a household might use the apps to keep track of and pay out allowances. Imagine an app that could create lists, set rewards and payout based on requests and photo verification. Scale-able to any degree- school systems could implement the app to reward students based on behavior and allow payments via the app at "student stores". It begins here. Please hold off any negative comments- this coin is in very early development.

We also envision a coin created for the community by the community. We want to create a "Family" to stay true to the core meaning of Vestacoin and to that degree- we will leave a lot of the development up to the community. In this way there are alot more ways to obtain vesta-coin then mining. Not everyone has mining hardware but may have other skills. We want to taylor to everyone's abilities.
