Big Scam. No one in their right mind will do KYC to mine crypto.

Big scam. Just look at Ethereum Classic

Re-read the post it was announced on Twitter and Bitcointalk back in 2022. Also it was on Coinbase grant back then too if you follow back.

I don't know. I'm just a enthusiast of the project. I don't think the creator ever made an announcement on this channel. He did under discussion though back in 2022: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5400871.0

Fact0rn is a proof of work cryptocurrency which changes the hashing algorithm seen in Bitcoin and similar POW coins to factoring. Thus making it the only cryptocurrency whose consensus is actually useful and can be used in things beyond just securing the network. Fact0rn received a 100,000$ grant from Coinbase to develop this theory: https://www.coinbase.com/blog/fact0rn-blockchain-integer-factorization-as-proof-of-work-pow. The whitepaper is here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1AJ5_MTIhdI-lz8X35WGi20JNnbN_q2vn/view

The digital security of banks, 500 Fortune companies, governments and many IoT devices depend on RSA — a cryptographic system whose security is provided by the difficulty of factoring integers into their prime factors. In addition to the interest from private industry there are more than a dozen active academic communities that factor integers as a hobby in the hopes of advancing our knowledge of mathematical theory in various areas. Many of them offer large sums of money for factorization. Fact0rn also plans to have a marketplace essentially for factoring.

The Fact0rn tokenomics model is built around a unique difficulty adjustment mechanism based on prime factorization. The key takeaway is that the difficulty of mining roughly increases 6-9 times for every doubling of the block reward. This intricate design aims to balance inflation and scarcity, ensuring long-term network sustainability.

No VCs, fairly launched, no pre-mine. Network launched in April 2022: https://twitter.com/LionesEscanor/status/1516720678812200965

Seems like a great project. Reminds me of Kaspa.

Kraken and Binance listed futures. I think spot is only a matter of time.

Kaspa ranking fixed on Coinmarketcap. Nearing 0.1$, Life is good!

You should join the Discord. All the important info is discussed there and people can answer more of your questions.

Someone else can answer the more technical questions, as to how people found out about Kaspa before it was mentioned on bitcointalk.

There were a lot of academic papers / stuff written by the creators which referenced Kaspa. I assume academics who were following the space, read his whitepapers/ tweets, and were interested to learn more found out that way:


About Kaspa (https://someone235.medium.com/scaling-bitcoin-with-blockdag-d785174a3402) This was back in April 26, 2021. There was a link to the discord at the bottom.  

Yonatan tweet about Kaspa in April 12, 2021 (https://twitter.com/hashdag/status/1381633444078309383)

Shortly after you wrote that comment KAS corrected 30% and then went back up to make an all time high. Maybe you should do some more research on Kaspa and see how revolutionary it is as opposed to thinking this is another speed mine scam. There's a good reason it went up 300x during a bear market.

Rust mainnet went live April 16th. Uphold listing coming too.

Rust upgrade coming out April 15th. Potentially making the system 32x faster.

Ledger support coming for Kaspa 

They are rewriting the code from Go to Rust. This rewrite will substantially boost Kaspa's performance. Conservatively by around 10x.

No one stole anything. You are just lying. DevFund wallet is here:

https://explorer.kaspa.org/addresses/kaspa:precqv0krj3r6uyyfa36ga7s0u9jct0v4wg8ctsfde2gkrsgwgw8jgxfzfc98

All community donations. The wallet is managed by 4 members of the community (msutton, Tim, The SheepCat and demisrael) who were publicly voted in to become the Treasurers. This a multi-signature wallet with a 2/4 signing formula, so it needs at least 2 of the Treasurers to sign the spending transaction for it to become commutable. All spendings are published in the #devfund channel and are performed according to the results of public votes in either #funding-pools or #votes channels on Discord.

Is there a GUI miner?

total scam coin. down 90%. Creator threatened to sue people on Reddit for trashing the project.
