3  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Why Dagger-Hashimoto for Ethereum? on: October 29, 2017, 06:55:14 AM
Dagger-hashimoto is basically the core of Ethereum's proof of work. With it the drawbacks that arose from bitcoins PoW were tackled prominently the use of ASIC machines. There are many arguments that it is possible to make ASIC machines for Ethereum, if that happens we sure would be talking a whole new RAM revolution.

We wrote up a post to describe how it happened and how it works:

11  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / We'd like your feedback: Verify on: October 08, 2017, 09:41:05 AM
We're launching an ICO later this year, but wanted to share an early version of our vision for Verify so we can get your feedback. Verify is a reputation platform; it facilitates trust, in any process that would traditionally require some degree of trust between two or more parties.

I link to our draft white paper below. You'll find mistakes, a bunch of TODO's and various other gaps in the doc, but our goal is to get this in front of potential users ASAP.

Examples of things we'd like your feedback on:
- The Problem (does it make sense to you?)
- The Solution
- Crypto-economics (inflationary/deflationary mechanisms, token allocation, etc.)
- Token utility

Here's the document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/19AOfvPmPMd1xg-0-Lm6WkPXAlQNh4JzVdZxeakr5-54/

All feedback is welcome, as long as we're civilized about it Wink
