Voyacoin was created by a few crypto-enthusiasts that have been wanting to develop and improve on the state of the current alt-coin market.
We had a hard time choosing between current algorithms as all had their ups and downs and limited the wide adoption we would like.
That was until Pluck came along (Thanks to Earlz!) and so far seems to bring profitability back into mining and destroys the barriers for wide adoption.
The current development plans are to add features such as AuxPoW (As we see that Pluck will become a high choice in the next coming alt-coins and merged mining will be a big bonus).
Android and Windows Wallets (we are unsure of iOS as Apple store rules are rather strict).
We are also looking into optimizing the CPU miner some more for everyone.

Although 'VOYA' was the ticker assigned at the deployment of the Voyacoin Token's smart contract, it is also in use by another asset with a larger market presence and higher trading volume on major exchanges. To avoid confusion in the marketplace, the alternative ticker 'VOYACOIN' has been adopted for this token. This designation ensures that assets are distinctly identified.
