About Munt

Munt is a witness-secured decentralized network for payments, digital assets, finance and more.
The direction of the developments are determined by the Gulden advisory board (GAB). The GAB consists of 9 members and is elected each year from the members of the community.
Anyone can stand for election. Voting for candidates is recorded and done through the Munt blockchain.
Munt would like to become a generally accepted means of payment. To this end, the development is aimed at making the wallets as user-friendly as possible.

What makes Munt unique:


- PoW2 (Proof of work + Witness)
- SegSig (Segregated Signature)
- SIGMA (Semi Iterated Global Memory Argon)
- Linking (Control your mobile wallet from your desktop wallet)
- Wallet accounts
- Unity (Unified codebase)
- Delta (Difficulty Algorithm)
- Sonic (Fast Sync)


Features of Munt explained:


PoW2

Munt does not use a standard PoW consensus model, but the in-house developed PoW2 model. This is a combination of PoW and Witness. Miners control the transactions and the Witness controls the miners.
Anyone can become a witness by locking an amount of Munt in a Witness account in the desktop wallet for a certain amount of time.
Depending on the weighting of the witness account (chosen duration and amount in the account) the witness earns rewards.
The advantage of this system is that the Munt blockchain can withstand 51% attacks without relying heavily on energy-guzzling PoW miners or vulnerable standard PoS systems.
Transactions can be safely accepted after one confirmation instead of the standard 3-6 confirmations.

SIGMA

Since October 17, 2019, the Munt team has implemented the Sigma algorithm and since then it is possible to mine Munt solo without additional equipment.
The algorithm is asic resistant and can be done on a normal desktop computer using it’s CPU. One can simply use this CPU mining algorithm by creating a mining account in the desktop wallet and start mining Munt/Gulden.

SegSig - Segregated Signature - Detailed article still to be published but was implemented with PoW2.

Advantages of Segregated Signature
1. 58% space saving on all transactions. More then twice the bitcoin SegWit implementation.
2. 58% increased transaction throughput. No block size or frequency changes needed.
3. Overhaul to the transaction script system which allowed us to implement PoW˛ and SegSig as clean as possible along with other benefits.

Linking

The desktop wallets can contain multiple accounts and mobile wallets can be linked to a single account in the desktop.

Sonic

Developed to decrease the initial sync time of the Munt / Gulden core wallets by up to 60% depending on the underlying hardware.
