1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Kaspa Testnet 11 nearer and nearer to the hard fork... on: December 31, 2024, 04:20:01 PM
The Kaspa Network ( kaspa.org ) has been running at 1 block per second without a hiccup for over three years.  Testnet 11 has been running for many months at 10 blocks per second.  Incremental improvements on this testnet have been implemented and while a date for the hard fork has yet to be announced the general consensus is it will be the first half of 2025.

Kaspa seems to still be a fairly little-known project since there are likely no more than about 150K people in the world who even OWN any Kaspa.  When the 10 blocks per second hard fork happens that should draw significant attention as it will surpass its OWN record of being the fastest POW coin in the world by a factor of TEN.

Kaspa was created by a team who have a rich background in crypto and have been cited in numerous white papers for their contribution to the overall crypto space.  It uses a unique BlockDAG structure that allows for blocks to be ordered even if they were presented to the network 'out of sequence' or in parallel. 

I think people are sleeping on Kaspa due to its initial meteoric rise in the first 2 years resulting a year 3 of essentially no price appreciation despite HEAVY developmental progress.

The 'graph inspector' for Testnet 11 can be viewed here in real time, running TEN blocks per second.   http://104.11.218.91:8080/?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR0dSFdlvHPrQxJg45-yPavzs6AuAJop9r_aNTd13kS-joVkkqLO1nbhexE_aem_Acd2dfwMMx009AbwHaNs6JHtgHVb_rE3Gwpw4a6MYcJGngG94OcPHduh2xxV2NIOZARvZ_mh5EDRU1yFv-zrgTSs

The second and most suspicious thing is and for sure here should be watching out everybody!
Run Miner:
./miner --wallet "TON-WALLET-SEED-HERE 24 WORD"


Why as it allways is for miner not put the wallet address in here ?
For mining tokens in the TON blockchain, a seed phrase is observed in the miner connection - this is a common practice. But there is a main rule: do not use the seed phrase of the your main wallet, create new wallets for mining.

Still makes zero sense.  NOBODY mines to a seed phrase.  You mine to a PUBLIC address.

If you mine to a SEED PHRASE then ANYONE with that same seed phrase will receive your mining rewards.  It does not matter if it is a new seed phrase or not.  If it is known to someone else then anyone who knows it OWNS THAT WALLET.

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?

I wrote about your coin in my telegram channel 10 days ago. Mining has been going on for almost 13 days. Have you just now decided to publish this coin on the forum?

thats weird!

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.

I would like to ask the locals here why do people jump always on new projects. There are plenty of good ones which are runing years unnoticed. And people would love these small projects.

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.
7  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: ULX is founded on innovative technology that solves the blockchain trilemma. on: August 10, 2023, 09:38:35 PM
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...
11  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / [ANN] EPIC CASH now listed at Bitmart (CEX) in addition to Vitex (DEX) on: May 01, 2022, 01:26:28 PM
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. 

14  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / EPIC (Epic Cash) halving coming up very soon - UPGRADE required on: October 28, 2021, 04:11:57 PM
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.
16  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Epic Cash on: March 07, 2021, 06:06:29 PM
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.
17  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] [POW] EPIC - Epic Private Internet Cash | MimbleWimble | Dandelion++ on: March 07, 2021, 06:03:29 PM
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...

Bitcoin is a fantastic store of value but it does not do very well for the other two functions of money:  Medium of exchange and Unit of account.  People only want to hold bitcoin which means it is ineffective as a medium of exchange or unit of account but amazing as a store of value.  Bitcoin is also not scalable.  The bitcoin blockchain is over 300GB so node security becomes more difficult.  Bitcoin can be private but not by default.  To transact privately with bitcoin requires many extra difficult steps.

Epic Cash solves all of these problems.  EUSD (Epic USD soft pegged to USD) and ECR (Every Citizens Reserve) makes it so all three functions of money are easily leveraged.  Less than 2GB blockchain means it can be kept on a phone and this means that CPU miners around the world will be able to mine from their phones.  This is scalability and decentralization that bitcoin was meant to have.  Epic Cash uses the mimblewimble protocol which is private by default.  Epic Cash is sent without addresses by default and transaction amounts are only known to the exchanging parties.

Bitcoin is a great start and new coins like Epic Cash improve on what bitcoin started.

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.

what is ECR  token contract address?

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.
