• Block time: 60 seconds

Network

Kulupu was launched in September 2019. Two hard forks have happened in its life time, Slag Ravine and Swamp Bottom.

Faucet

Kulupu has a faucet that you can use to get some initial money. The faucet is donated by fellow Kulupu community members. To use the faucet:

• Create a new account using a Kulupu wallet such as polkadot.js. Remember to select Kulupu network from the network dropdown menu. Copy the address.
• Join the Discord server for Kulupu.
• Go to #bots channel, and type !faucet send address.
• The faucet bot will then send you around 0.1 KLP.

The network has just been (experimentally) launched!

The second hard fork Swamp Bottom has happened successfully! https://github.com/kulupu/kulupu/releases/tag/v1.0.0

It's a side project but i wouldn't say it's a shitcoin...
It's the first PoW coin on substrate, and thus it is in the polkadot ecosystem.

Look at the order book of this coin. Who would have thought that this coin will reach about 45cents after almost a year of inactivity here? Lucky for those who mined and believed that this coin will hit in the market. But since the trading just commenced, expect that in few weeks, the price may go down and may see the true value of this coin. So be ready for what may happen in the next few weeks if you are seriously investing on this coin.

Hello-

My name is Rick and I am a crypto youtuber. I wanted to reach out and see if you were looking for youtuber promotion of your project. My channel is www.youtube.com/cryptorick let me know if you are interested in discussing details. Thank you

how to mine this coin ?? do need a good computer?

Yes you need CPU like Ryzen 7,9 or i5 I7

Are there any mining tutorials to run and earn coins?

Yes there is of course, please visit Github https://github.com/kulupu/kulupu
Also join the discord server, an active community and developers will prompt and help
https://picua.org/images/2020/08/11/e4ec174e9a6781113bef4d139f527f90.md.png

a little interested in the concept of this project, but I haven't seen such a video tutorial for mining using windows, it's a shame it's never provided, if you want this project to have a lot of community you need to make lots of writing or video tutorials so that everyone comes for this project, but I will study a little there

As you wish, this coin was destroyed by miners with great arithmetic.

Just join Discord or Telegram and you'll be helped. ;D


Big changes incoming to fix this issue ;)
Stay tuned.

Finally, after some effort, Kulupu mining calculator (https://minerstat.com/coin/KLP) is live.

The price is getting better. After 3 weeks that I posted the above message, the price has risen a lot. The profit for those who bought even this first week of August are already enjoying their gains. But where are the supporters of this coin, are they active more on social media like telegram because this thread is not so active. Are they keeping their profits within themselves?  ;D Will the price continue its upward growth?

The main communication on the project takes place in discord server, I also see that there are discussions in other communities of polkadot ecosystem.The price of #KLP in the short term does not concern me, the market will decide later )

Relaychain Chat with Developer Wei Tang

January 16th, 2020

https://relaychain.fm/12-ethereum-past-present-and-future

In this episode, hosts Joe Petrowski (Research Analyst, Parity) and Phil Lucsok (Product Communications Manager, Parity) speak with Wei Tang (Core Developer, Parity) about his work on several Ethereum- and Substrate-related projects. They discuss Tang’s experience working on Ethereum, Ethereum Classic, and Substrate, including innovative proposals for account versioning, backwards compatibility, and bridging and merging different Ethereum chains, as well as the future of ETH 2.0 and the broader Ethereum community.

Tang is known amongst his peers as an exceptionally gifted and prolific developer, having built the SputnikVM Rust implementation of Ethereum from scratch just by reading the Ethereum yellow paper (without looking at other clients), and having created the Substrate EVM implementation in just a few days.

Highlights:

00:57 - Why open source and Rust
03:30 - Building an Ethereum VM implementation from scratch
05:53 - SputnikVM and ETC
08:22 - Ethereum account versioning & backwards compatibility
15:10 - EIP 2225: bridging and merging different Ethereum chains
20:00 - Multi-client transaction validation for Ethereum
25:00 - Contentious EIPs and improving governance
26:52 - Shasper and implementing Ethereum 2.0 on Substrate
31:57 - ETH 2.0 challenges and roadblocks
34:07 - Substrate EVM
37:19 - Solri and Kulupu: Substrate meets proof-of-work

Block Rewards are now as follows:  

30 klp Every Block which is 1 Minute

Miners Receive 24 klp out of the block

20% Tax which is 6 klp goes to the treasury or is burned. The miner decides  

The previous referendum (#20)  to add council member SGARAGAGGHU as registrar has passed. We do not have a referendum under voting this week.  04/01/2021

Faucet

Kulupu has a faucet that you can use to get some initial coins. The faucet is donated by fellow Kulupu community members.

To use the faucet:

1. Create a new account using a Kulupu wallet such as polkadot.js. Copy the address.

2. Join the Discord server for Kulupu  https://discord.gg/BsgWDSRkqJ

3. Go to #bots channel, and type..   !faucet send walletaddress

4. The faucet bot will then send you around 0.1 KLP.


You can do this roughly once per day

Referendum #22 (Mandatory Donation for Miners)

Referendum #22 has passed, this will be activated in 8 days. We do not have a referendum under voting this week.

This week under voting -- referendum #23

This is to set the Emission curve to get an expected* max supply of ~60M

The block reward will be set to 12KLP at the block 700000 and 6KLP at the block 1200000 (respectively around September 2021 and September 2022).

[The treasury's donation should be changed accordingly when we are approaching the above blocks, respectively to 3KLP (for a total of 15KLP minted of each block) and 1.5KLP (for a total of 7.5KLP minted for each block)

The voting has already started and ends in just over 2 days. You can cast your votes by going to:

https://polkadot.js.org/apps/?rpc=wss%3A%2F%2Frpc.kulupu.corepaper.org%2Fws#/democracy

The previous referendum (#23)

This has been rejected because it failed to obtain a super majority

This week's referendum #25
 
This is to vote on enacting the DX3906 runtime upgrade. For changelog

Please see  https://github.com/kulupu/kulupu/releases/tag/v2.6.0

In particular, please note that this runtime upgrade will enable the "lockdrop" runtime module, which you can find more information here.  https://github.com/kulupu/kulupu/pull/126

If the current runtime upgrade failed to obtain a super majority on-chain, we'll post a new runtime upgrade with the "lockdrop" runtime module removed.

This week's referendum #26

This is to vote on the emission curve proposal. The proposal reduces block rewards in a gradual way, with 20% treasury reward unchanged. This would result in roughly 75m total supply.

* Start block 550k: 24 KLP.
* Start block 800k: 21 KLP.
* Start block 1050k: 18 KLP.
* Start block 1300k: 15 KLP.
* Start block 1550k: 12 KLP.
* Start block 1800k: 9 KLP.
* Start block 2050k: 6 KLP.
* Start block 2300k: 3 KLP.
* Start block 2550k: 1.5 KLP.
