BlackCoin (BLK) is pure Proof of Stake coin, except stage of initial distribution, when it’s mixed PoW and PoS coin. Recent Bitcoin patches against transaction malleability are integrated. Problem is not solved, but harder to exploit. Mining of Blackcoin will only be available for one week, since after the 10.000th block it will be a Proof of Stake coin only.
