How can NVOLVE be the world's fastest crypto with a 90 second block time when KASPA has a 1 second block time and will soon have a 1/10 second block time?

Frankly, I am not sure when it became improper for someone to start a crypto project without announcing it here first.  Many projects start up with Discord or Telegram as the initial launch point.  I am not saying anything as to the validity of this or any other project, but there is no requirement for a legit project to make itself known here.

In fact, given the cesspool of scams and dead coins trying to be revived, this has even less relevance today as compared to just a few years ago.

The last good project I ran across in these pages was over 2 years ago - Kaspa - and they first posted here 17 days after launch, though the launch was made known elsewhere.

Sadly, for every real project there are a hundred that are either scams, failed attempts to revive a dead projects or a vehicle designed only to inject malicious code.

And, for every REAL project that is good, there are a hundred that are mere forks with a different name and a different wannabe 'dev' whose goal is to make a few quick bucks.  

Last one I found was a little more than 2 years ago.  I happened upon Kaspa in this forum on 11/24/2021.  

Need to include Kaspa.  Fair launch.  POW only.  Strong community.

POS projects are inherently biased towards centralization as the rich get richer.

That means the issue of decentralization is not maintained and the claim to have solved the trilemma is not supported by the basic architecture of the project.

A few things that set it apart...

1. Mimblewimble protocol.  I can think of only a handful of MW coins.  MW protocol stores the end state of where coins are and NOT every transaction.  As a result, the entire ledger is tremendously scalable.
2. It can be mined with three different algos.  CPU mining on RandomX, GPU's on ProgPow and ASIC mining on a cuckoo variant.
3. All coins are completely fungible.  It is impossible to have 'tainted' coins.  One cannot be distinguished from any other.
4. Privacy is a default rather than a selected feature

I am sure others can chime in.  Those are the highlights as I see it.

EPIC has been flying under the radar big time.  That is one of the very few weaknesses of a community driven project.  There is no centralized body to promote it.  But that extends the opportunity for entry...

EPIC CASH recently listed at Bitmart with a USDT/EPIC pair in addition to the BTC/EPIC pair at Vitex.

EPIC CASH was originally launched in late September of 2019 and has a strong volunteer community supporting it. 

EPIC is one of just a handful of Mimblewimble protocol coins.  As a result, the chain remains very compact and scalable and there are no 'tainted' coins as EPIC's are totally and completely fungible.

Total supply will be 21 million.

EPIC is very thinly traded.  That is both a good thing and a bad thing.

Good, in that the vast majority of EPIC is locked up in people's wallets for a long term HODL.

Bad, in that a small amount of EPIC can move the market much more significantly than were trading more active.

Hang with it.  Mobile wallet on the horizon.  That will mean no need for open ports for MimbleWimble IP protocol transfers. 

Those who think everything should be spoon-fed to them and are griping when it is not are doing those of us who pay attention a great favor.

They are staying away.  They have nothing to add. 

With halving nearly upon us, it is time to update your server to version 2.17. This version accommodates the halving, and the algo change to the new 48/48/4 proportions. As of block height 1157760, mining rewards will be halved, and blocks algos will change to the following:
48% ProgPow  (GPU)
48% RandomX (CPU)
4% Cuckoo (ASIC/CPU/GPU)
Please download the appropriate 2.17 binaries from the official https://epic.tech/downloads/ site ASAP.
THE BINARIES ARE LIVE NOW 😎👍
Please search and replace both 2.15 files – the  epic.exe and foundation.JSON  with the new ones from the 2.17 downloaded folder. If you have any questions, please post in the Epic Cash Help Desk group - https://t.me/epiccashhelpdesk
For people with technical knowledge to compile their own – the source code is located https://github.com/EpicCash/epic/tree/2.17

Please note, with 2.17 - mining software has not changed, wallet software has not changed.

Also, please note, this is not the V3 update, that will come after the halving – stay tuned for additional instructions regarding V3.

This project has been a dismal failure.

And when you point out the FACTUAL shortcomings, the devs ban you from Discord...

Run away.  They have no idea what they are doing.

ProgPow is the way to go with mining Epic Cash at this point.   You should hit roughly one block per day for every 25 Mh/s you bring to the table.  Nvidia and TT-Miner is the way to go.

EPIC keeps chugging along. 

DIFF's are growing so if you have the ability to mine it... now is the time to do so.

For GPU's (what I mine with) use Nvidia and TT-miner.   You can mine to a pool or your own node IF you have a fair number of GPU's.   The algorithm is ProgPow but you need to use a miner that specifically supports EPIC in its algo-switching between ProgPow, RandomX and Cuckcoo algos.

Currently available at Vitex (DEX).  Half a buck USD or so...

This is a gem of a project but so few have yet to hear about it.

Now is the time to investigate it.  Then decide if you want to get involved.

Contract has not yet been created.  When it is created the address will be published... as per Max Freeman.

I would encourage you to join the Telegram server - https://t.me/EpicCash

Lots to get up to speed on if you are wanting to participate.

So this is now about two weeks to get some EPIC in order to take advantage of the snapshot. 

I am looking forward to this and to the continuing expansion of the EPIC CASH brand. 

Might also mention that this is a relatively NEW project, having launched in late 2019.  Now is the time.

Watch here for more details...

But this is a heads up that on 2/28, a snapshot of the Epic Cash Chain will be made, allowing all holders of EPIC to receive 1 ERC-20 token for each EPIC held at that time.

EPIC is a Mimblewimble coin with a fixed cap of 21 million EPIC, no premine, and can be mined with CPU (RandomX), GPU (ProgPow) or ASIC miners (Cuckoo).  Started in September of 2019, this coin is a community driven project and is on the cusp of some major developments with the ERC-20 token creation being part of that ecosystem.

This is NOT the official announcement.  This is a 'heads up' if you will.  Since the snapshot is now two weeks away, I thought some might want to research the project to try to take advantage of the timing of things...

1.  Wallets do not hold sync with the network and often lag by 2-3 blocks, likely meaning they are taken out of the hunt for block rewards

2.  Tier 1 Server Accounts are broken for many and the attitude from the team has slowly turned towards blaming the users and their 'computer problems'.  It is a software issue.  This ain't my first rodeo and I have never had this kind of issue before.

3.  While I can respect the desire to create a means by which coins are created by something OTHER than hardware that consumes energy, in the theoretical sense I am sort of failing to see how this achieves any real value.  Would love to be proven wrong here, but the 'mining power' that is being put to use here is merely having a network connection.  That means, at .0000000001 Sats, it is profitable as there is no power or hardware that is expended to acquire it.  It is, so far, low emission, but I understand that the emission will grow to accommodate the size of the network, ie., more miners... more coins, sort of keeping scarcity as a constant.

4.  So far, wallets have to be set up through either a ~24 hour hashing algo (for servers) or solving a puzzle to prove human interaction (for Tier 3) initially, and every 30 days going forward.  That means if someone just wants to acquire IUM through an exchange or private sale, it will take a minimum of 6-8 hours (Tier 1 with multi-threaded support) or about 2-3 days to have a wallet capable of receiving the coins.  This needs to be addressed before anyone other than miners can be expected to show an interest.

About the mainnet launch...

IMO, should have just been called a Testnet so all of the bugs that have come to the surface would be seen as signs of productivity instead of signs of a lack of foresight.  My insistent expressing of this in the Discord has earned me a ban.  Truth be told, I dared them to... and they did.  But another truth be told... I have a pretty high batting average in spotting what thrives and what languishes.
