I quite like the updated logo, the logo on page #1. Just my 2c

DGW is very nice but myriad of algorithms give people with different specialized machines ways to earn although each algo in the myriad can use DGW  nope, il press meeh to use the original diff systems and not (re)targeting systems that aim to fix something that isnt fixable. all they do is adding obscurity and bugs. I hope you don't mean bitcoin-style retargeting after a certain number of blocks, because that would be disastrous. |

Looks like the difficulty is settling around 700 ... for anybody's info, i went and hired 32MH from miningrigrentals.com and i would like to think that helped, and i suggest that if more of us do that we might keep the multipool vultures at bay, at least while we are having these growing pains ... EDIT: wishful thinking ... Hero! It does help don't get discouraged! |

DGW V3 from Darkcoin is really fucking good as far as difficulty adjustments go. You guys should use , unless you absolutely feel like you have to make your own code. The network is getting hammered by 1 pool though, they are dumping as much as they can as soon as the price rises.
+1 I vote for DGW, I've heard good things You vote for DGW. You are so funny LMAO I'm glad my comments have brightened your day with laughter. |

I think replacing KGW with a better difficulty algorithm would go a long way toward fixing this, as would increasing the hashrate from non-multipools (which is a social problem, not a technological one). Meeh is currently working on the KGW replacement, so it will not be long before there's a fix and hard fork.
Since I'm the only developer that can work on Zerocoin right now (meaning without any learning time), it makes more sense for me to stay working on this so that there's no chance of schedule slippage.
+1, keep plugging away at ZC, meeh can handle the difficulty algo. I'm going to go on the record supporting a diff. algo fix ASAP, preferably before the Nov. 1st ZC hardfork. People tend get their panties in a bunch about hardforks but it really isn't that big a deal. I say let's do it now. |

So what is the estimate ... how many minutes, hours, or days will it take ... until this block is mined now at diff 4483.891 ?
Hah, sorry ... I can actually answer my question myself: http://abe.darkgamex.ch:2751/chain/Anoncoin?count=500&hi=252656It's has been happening in very regular intervalls, and then each time there was no block for 2-11 hours. EDIT: ... 120 blocks = 600 ANC ... = more than 2 BTC if he can dump them at the current price. 2 BTC in less than 10 minutes. Wow, some pool/miner can be getting really rich right now, with that trick. Crypto is a weird world. Same guys are raping ANC since weeks. They are creating thousands ANC in some hours but devs don't care. Welcome to Anoncoin! Wow does not look good at all.... its fine, there will be a hard fork with both a better difficulty algorithm, and multiple hashing algorithms (like myriad) I believe Unfortunately I think this is a while away....not something you can just flick a switch on....development needs to occur and I think the dev team is focusing on zerocoin stuff rather than the foundational aspects of the coin  It requires a hard fork to make this change, they decided to roll it into the ZC release on Nov 1st so that we only had to undergo one hardfork, not two. This volatile difficulty problem is more of an annoyance than anything, it sucks that we get stuck on blocks for hours at a time, but the difficulty is not so high that our miners cant crack the block eventually. We just need to live with this problem until nov. 1st. |

Quite happy I have been mining and buying ANC, guess it can't stay under the radar forever though.
If Gnosis can deliver (fingers crossed), I'd expect a market cap in line with XMR/DRK, maybe higher. That means we still have 400-1100% or larger increase still ahead of us. |

Hi, if you could please add Anoncoin (ANC) that would be awesome. It is one of the highest volume markets on cryptsy and currently listed #26 on coinmarketcap.com. https://www.cryptsy.com/markets/view/66Thank you! |

Yes as even using a myriad the network difficulty is set from the chain with the highest difficulty. So to pick chains with the biggest and steadiest hashrate to auxPoW with is the best solution.
Just to clarify, each myriad chain has its own difficulty that floats independent of the other chains. ie there would be no one "network difficulty" but 5 different difficulties that are each floating independent of each other. Also I don't think saying that there are 5 chains is accurate per se - there is still only 1 blockchain just five different ways of adding a block to the chain. Yeah but what I meant is the difficulty for finding Anoncoin blocks will be set by the auxPoW chain with the relatively highest difficulty. Which will be applied across all Anoncoin auxPoW chains in effect. So if there's a very high auxPoW scrypt hashrate and a relatively much smaller auxPoW NeoScrypt hashrate then more blocks will be found on the 'bigger' Scrypt chain. Or at least that's as far as I understand Myriadcoin. I'm pretty sure that's not how it works. Lets say we chose to do 5 algo myriad with a network (total) block time of 1 minute. Each algo would find a block on average every 5 minutes, and the difficulty of each algo would adjust independently to maintain this 5 minute block time. In aggregate a block would be found across all algos once every 1 minute. |

correct. even better if combined with myriad and alot of hashpower at each PoW.
I apologize I forgot that you are a dev. Have you all decided that Myraid + auxPoW is the direction anoncoin will take? And what is the timeline for implementation? Thanks |

AuxPOW + Myraid sounds super complicated - has Meeh confirmed that this is what the plan is? I agree that this is definitely a good thing for the coin, as long as Meeh feels confident that it can be implemented without issue. Most important is maybe a switch from kgw to some other retargeting algo (I assume there are retargeting algos that might fix this issue of large difficulty spikes from block to block). Maybe dark gravity well?
I say the same thing as the last time, before we switched to KGW. Ther eis no susch thing that protects from high hashrate spikes and never will be... Alright fair enough - I guess auxPOW is the best solution then. |

So it makes sense to set up the auxPoW with bigger chains as they already have lots of miners who'd potentially also mine Anoncoin for free. It makes sense to auxPoW on Scrypt as Anocoin is currently Scrypt plus the Litecoin chain is secure and the network large. So anyone who mines Litecoin and Dogecoin could then also mine Anoncoin for free. Then it makes sense to have a second chain focused on CPU mining. So either Primes or Cryptonight. Then a GPU chain also of which the upcoming NeoScrypt looks like it will be the largest GPU network chain. Although there is also Scrypt-N Vertcoin which is soon to change to Lyra2 algorithm to look at as well. So you could have a Scrypt ASIC chain plus a Cryptonight or Primes CPU chain and a NeoScrypt GPU chain for a three chain myriad. Or for a five chain myriad, Scrypt, Primes, Cryptonight, NeoScrypt and Lyra2 For one Scrypt ASIC chain, plus one or two CPU chains and either one or two GPU chains.
Just a quick correction - Cryptonight is largely GPU mined at the moment (google "Claymore GPU miner"). |
