Title: "Proof of Presence" experiment Post by: MoMoneyMonetarism on December 17, 2013, 09:27:10 PM I would like to test the viability of Proof of Presence (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=374855.0) to thwart secret chain attacks in a high transaction verification speed environment.
Could someone please show me where in the Peercoin code Proof of Presence should be added and where to drop the verification time to 1 second? I am a complete noob to cryptocurrency code, but have been programming for decades, so I really just need a quick kickstart...I think. For reference: "Proof of Presence" in the simplest form rejects consecutive blocks verified by the same miner's address used for rewards & fees. Thank you to whoever so much in advance!

I can't help you with code, but I'm pretty sure that what you said won't help because by default, the bitcoin wallet uses a fresh address each time it mines a block. I apologize since I don't fully understand and probably wasn't clear. I'm referring to the address used for fees & rewards. Is that the address you are referring to? Thank you so much in advance! |
