Yo dawg. I heard you like mining... So I put a PoW mining inside Ethereum ERC20 token so you can mine tokens while you mine Ether!



Imagine standard ERC20-compliant token on Ethereum platform. Now, lets add simple proof-of-work check inside token contract, and reward whoever solves the PoW task with tokens. Bam! You've got lightweight implementation of Bitcoin on top of Ethereum. Isn't it meta?

Ofcourse its just for fun only. Mining (spending computational resources) doesn't protect the network from attacks (Ethereum network is already protected with its own mining), so it's only a tokens distribution to miner (and those tokens are useless and worth nothing).

Bonus! You can mine in your browser. I made a tiny Dapp for that. Requires Metamask plugin.
M4K3 M1N1ИG GЯE4T 4G41И!

Current specs

• 2.5 min block time (I know, there's no blocks here, its just a figure of speech)
• Block reward: 5 tokens
• Decimals: 8 (digits after dot)
• Halving each: 210,000 blocks (1 year?)
• Difficulty retarget: each block; simple (exactly as in bitcoin-core)
• Algo: sha3 (aka keccak256)
• Max cap: count yourself (mining wont stop after 64 halvings as in bitcoin-core)

I need your oppinion and feedback on this.

This is better than BITCOINEREUM lol

[lamongan12345]

ya that's a good cocept.. but need to add more detail information also detail introduction...
so it will look more complet and interesting...

[zayachkivska]

okay, this announcement is very simple, even on the token specification, this is not enough to convince people to be interested in this token, and what is the advantage of the token holder? please, give more information for the future

It is a good idea and i too had a similar idea. But the gas that has to be paid as the transaction fee is the problem here.  How much gas is required for mining each coin?

Haven't checked it. Why don't you mine one coin and see for yourself?

Thinking about the same idea, have you tried to mine one coin and saw how much gas will cost ,,, i am ready to implement if you have an answer !
