Title: [ANN] BitEther Coin (BEC) - a cross-mining coin on Ethereum Classic (ETC)
Post by: splix on February 23, 2017, 05:16:53 PM

BitEther is a token built on top of existing smart contract technology of Ethereum Classic. It rewards ETC miner with an additional token (BEC) - miner receives two rewards, by doing same amount of job. Ethereum Classic is a PoW chain, original chain left after Ethereum Foundation made their fork.

BitEther follows Bitcoin monetary supply, with 21M coins total, halving each 3 years and 50% distribution by year 2019. 99% will be distributed by year 2034, as about same time as for Bitcoin. Reward is 2 BEC coins per ETC block, which is comparable to 50 BTC per 10 minutes.


|Era #||% of mined||Emission Rate||Bec Per ETC Block||Year|
Era 150%50 BEC2 BEC2019
Era 275%25 BEC1 BEC2021
Era 388%12.5 BEC0.5 BEC2024
Era 494%6.25 BEC0.25 BEC2026

This an experimental coin designed to demonstrate abilities of Ethereum Classic blockchain and to incentivize Dapp developers to add additional value to chain and to improve network security.  

BEC follows ERC20 specification for custom tokens on Ethereum Classic, which makes it compatible with most of existing wallets and software on Ethereum Classic blockchain. Also a standard token for Ethereum Classic wallet.

Main features that it’s a first coin of that class in Ethereum Classic, it have familiar economic capabilities, and can be a base layer for future development in that field.

what if we use from MyEtherWallet?

It's already supported by MyEtherWallet, it will show balance in BEC, and allow to transfer, if your account has any BEC

what if we use from MyEtherWallet?

I do not understand this new coin? but mining is already underway, and received more than 3 million blocks.
Explain, please
or please write to the PM in Russian (oт aнгл yжe гoлoвa пyxнeт)

ETC has 3M+ blocks, but BEC token mining started just recently. About 1M of total 21M are already mined (we're in initial era, when first 50% of tokens going to be distributed)

BitEther is independent token on Ethereum Classic blockchain, so it has different timeframe and supply. Just cross-mined with same blocks

So you were mining ETC and as it started dumping you wanted to create a coin to parallel mine and dump on others to make ETC mining more profitable?

Am i understanding this right?

You say you want to experiment with ETC to demonstrate the DAPP and sidechain abilities.... WHY are you making a new coin with no REAL purpose. Just create a Dapp dude. Fkn google DAPP and there are tons of great ideas you can shoot for.

Not mining, not investing. Really low quality projects coming out this week.

Congrats on your ninja launch / 1m coins mined also.

Hope you don't mean ethereum examples because there are exactly zero good ideas on ethereum chain right now. And they are not dapps on ethereum, since ethereum is centralized fraud (https://www.reddit.com/r/ethereumfraud/), they are just apps there, slow expensive apps for no reason.

afaik Jaxx doesn't support ERC20 tokens yet, so I don't recommend to use Jaxx for BEC at this point (jaxx works for ETC though)

This is not ICO ;) just mine ETC and get your BEC for free

Tell me, at what exchange I will be able to sell in future planned coins that I get.
I found the exchange on which the coin is present, however, there is not generated the wallet.

I'm mining ETC on a pool, with claymore
what I have to do with my .bat file to get this BEC? or I have to do something else to claim it?
