I just started to study the crypto currencies world and I'm really interested in teh security field. Could you suggest me some ebook, hard or technical ebook wiki, videos and other stuff to learn about CC? thanks! Title: Re: New to ALT coin - book suggestion?

The industry just changes so quick a writer would constantly be doing revisions or become dated on book info. That is part of reason the forum is so great as we get many current topics.
Is there anything certain with crypto currencies you are wanting to learn? Title: Re: New to ALT coin - book suggestion?

I didn't know how many CC exist.. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=134179.0Is there anything certain with crypto currencies you are wanting to learn? and hom many are died and disappeared! Now I'm studying the basis of CC from a mathematical point of view. I found different guide and learning how block chain works, proof and other topics. I think that in this forum and with google I can found everything I need. Title: Re: New to ALT coin - book suggestion? Post by: pereira4 on May 30, 2015, 07:17:18 PM There are way too many coins created daily to keep track of them. What you need to know tho:
SHA256 = Bitcoin Scrypt = Litecoin PoS = NXT Hybrid = BLK The rest have introduced a ton of algorithms, like x11 with DRK (Darkcoin, aka Dash) ,a bunch of other ones with QRK (Quark). Those are in my view gimmicks, we don't need that much anyway. SHA256 is as safe as it gets. A project worth checking out: Maidsafe, they are aiming for an actual decentralized internet.

But if you go to this site it does a lot - http://www.coinwarz.com/cryptocurrency With coinwarz you can specify the type of mining specifically to go down into one algo. or you can select them all. It also makes comparing exchange rate and difficulty of the alt coins a pretty simple glance. Title: Re: New to ALT coin - book suggestion?

I bumped today into QRK.. 9 round of hashing :o Title: Re: New to ALT coin - book suggestion?

Thanks mate!! :) What about digi? and could you elaborate a bit on NXT? I saw someone in another thread talking positive about them... Title: Re: New to ALT coin - book suggestion?

If you are interested in security, pleaase have a look at NEM whitepaper: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7wAe2jt1MMzYVJhUUFnMHQxZ1U/view?usp=sharing Developers did a great work using Eigentrust++ for nodes reputation. |
