Title: [ANN] Bitcoin - Scrypt Version - ASIC Resistant Post by: Everlight on September 08, 2013, 10:08:30 AM DISCLAIMER: This is not the same Bitcoin as commonly discussed throughout the forum, please use diligence in realizing that this is its use, and please realize that it is an entirely different coin.
-SaltySpitoon Hi all, I am pretty new around here but a guy called Omega6 on IRC asked me if I could post this for him on here. I am just going to copy and paste exactly what he wrote to me below: ------------------- I am pleased to announce the release of a scrypt version of Bitcoin, the benefits of which will be a resistance to ASIC, making it a much more fair coin to mine. The coin details as per block reward and difficulty adjustments are the same as the SHA-256 Bitcoin. RPCPORT - 30200 P2PPORT - 30201 TESTNET - 30300 In your config please put addnode=217.8.255.62 Windows Client : https://www.dropbox.com/s/g6r1x7nyl8tn10o/Bitcoin%20Scrypt.zip Source Code : https://github.com/Omega6/Bitcoin Mining Pools: http://btc2.botpool.net http://btc2.cryptominer.net --------------------- This is everything that he posted to me. I am sure he will post on this thread to answer any questions, as I will struggle to answer any but I will try.

I don't know the dev. I just wanted to try out this coin with a p2pool since I was just getting rejects when mining solo.

Hosted Forum : https://cryptocointalk.com/forum/411-bitcoin-scrypt-btc/ Why am I getting negative votes? I am just the messenger here. Or is it a way to stop people having an ASIC resistant Bitcoin? Bitcoin (Scrypt) is now at a difficulty of 1, which the global network hash rising.

Title: Re: [ANN] Bitcoin - Scrypt Version - ASIC Resistant Post by: CoinHoarder on September 10, 2013, 12:41:58 PM Wow, an ALT coin that erases your Bitcoin wallet. :D
You win the award of the worst ALT coin ever sir. Well played. Title: Re: [ANN] Bitcoin - Scrypt Version - ASIC Resistant Post by: CaptChadd on September 10, 2013, 12:56:35 PM It only erases your original Bitcoin wallet if you let it happen and don't know what you are doing.
I never keep my SHA Bitcoin wallet in appdata anyway, I have the client point to another hard drive using the map method. It is funny to be solo mining Bitcoin again, even if they are not real or worth anything. Title: Re: [ANN] Bitcoin - Scrypt Version - ASIC Resistant Post by: braytz on September 10, 2013, 02:19:29 PM so..... BTC3 will be cpu only ? ;D ;D ;D ;D

Title: Re: [ANN] Bitcoin - Scrypt Version - ASIC Resistant Post by: krasnyoktyabr on September 10, 2013, 08:11:12 PM At least this is going to die very very quickly.
The difficulty will shoot up and the outdated difficulty adjustment with leave it beached at an impossibly high difficulty. Title: Re: [ANN] Bitcoin - Scrypt Version - ASIC Resistant Post by: dmatthewstewart on September 10, 2013, 08:58:50 PM /thread

I have been told to lock this thread due to a rule here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=292543.0 that has just been made. Looks like a clamp down on Bitcoin Scrypt, so we are not allowed to make anymore threads about it due to this new censorship rule. Even though I have locking the thread now, the website bitcoinscrypt.org is a forum where users can talk about it without restriction. |
