Title: WANTED: DEVELOPERS to develop a new coin along similar lines as Primecoin Post by: FrictionlessCoin on July 18, 2013, 11:25:20 AM Hello,
I have an idea for a new kind of crypto-coin that has a proof of work that has real practical purposes. Bitcoin and Litecoin have PoW that really has no real practical value. That is, finding a nounce value that will create a hash with a certain number of zeros. Primecoin has a PoW that may not have any practical value, but at least it is intellectually interesting as to what it discovers. I have an idea for a coin that does have an algorithm that has value. I hope to release the coin in 1-2 weeks time. Anyway, I am a skilled developer, however I would like to collaborate with 2 additional developers to help me refine my implementation. Please pm me if you are interested. I would like to work with someone with C,C++,Java or Python skills. Thanks in advance.

You'll find their are massive hurdles but i hope you find the people you need to complete your mission. :) Good luck sir!

This cloud can be used to host websites, host personal files, do distributed computation. It has a bitcoin-like block-chain to store the payments/transactions. Something similar to Namecoin but more dedicated. I think it will be much useful.

Storing all the data required by the computation in the blockchain may be problematic for many classes. So, the block chain may be able to point to a url to retrieve the computation required for the block.

There is this neat decentralized data storage software called Bittorrent Sync:This cloud can be used to host websites, host personal files, do distributed computation.

Once the URL target changes, the block can no longer be validated.Title: Re: WANTED: DEVELOPERS to develop a new coin along similar lines as Primecoin Post by: mercSuey on July 18, 2013, 08:23:35 PM time to launch UnPrimeCoin (hashes all non prime numbers!!) That would be CompositeCoin....and it can be merge mined actually. ;) Title: Re: WANTED: DEVELOPERS to develop a new coin along similar lines as Primecoin Post by: solracx on July 18, 2013, 08:44:03 PM the block chain may be able to point to a url to retrieve the computation required for the block. Once the URL target changes, the block can no longer be validated.For a compuational to be valuable, there needs to be a means for the consumer of a computation to be able to submit data for computation.

Why don't you just tell us what PoW you have in mind? Being secretive is dumb. |
