Title: My Idea
Post by: NegativeZero on July 10, 2013, 05:23:36 AM
My idea for a cryptocurrency:
- SHA-256 Hash blocks
- New block are made from transactions
- 10% of every transaction will become a block, therefore blocks are various sizes
- A limit of 33 Million coins
- Starting off with 500 250 coin blocks
I really have now clue how to code or anything  :P so I really can't do anything with my ideas. So yeah, that's it.

I think you should learn more about how Bitcoin works.

I don't see the reason why to embed a new cryptocurrency at all - if we want bitcoin to get more successful we don't need all those alternate ones

Seems like making lots of small transactions is the way to go.
So you are encouraging spamming this blockchain

it wont work, unless you made every block like this. the reason is that new coins could never be added, so your total supply would only be 500 x 250 coins. what you'd want to do instead is add a base value for each block + 10% of each tx. something like this:

Code:
int 64 nSubsidy = (nFees + 5) * COIN;

then you would have to somehow define nFees(comprised of MIN_TX_FEE and MIN_RELAY_FEE) to be 10% of transaction

not sure but here's my pathetic attempt

Code:
MIN_TX_FEE = ("n/% tx %n/" * .1) * COIN; 
MIN_RELAY_FEE = .000005 * COIN;

Well the idea is certainly...different, but it doesn't sound like it would play out well. Just my opinion though.

Start studying these things. It is never too late.

Competition is better than a monopoly. Alt coins should stay, just priced fairly.
