Dawn:
@ Sirsmokes -- hey, welcome back!
@ Gustav: there's a post of FK's somewhere above: he contacted over a dozen devs. No joy. Can someone find that post?
This has me on the hook:
"The concern is what could happen to the hash when the price of Uno drops. Logically, hash will move to the more profitable coin. This could leave Uno vulnerable to a 51% attack. When Uno started off, it had a great message around a "Secure Network." I'd like to recapture that message. Implementing AuthPOW in Uno against Bitcoin would quickly see us begin to measure the strength of our network in Petahashes (thousands of Terrahashes), rather than Terrahashes that I can count on my fingers & toes. I think it will make Uno more suitable for storing greater value in it's blockchain. It would move Uno into a different category of strongly secured coins."
'The Mall' -- our idea of making Unobtanium/its community the core of a Much Larger Project -- warrants an outstandingly 'solid' coin. It is synomymous with 'crypto bullion.'
M
sure, if price would go down and stay down (i doubt it) so would hash.
If smaller coins don't want to merge that leaves us with two options:
-raise marketcap considerably
or
-implement merge mining with bitcoin
both options are good
I'm almost certain an implementation of auxpow with btc would raise price and interest. I have been talking with people on the outside and they said they would be very much interested in case the merge with btc would be implemented.
