Re: [AXIOM] AxiomMemHash, Schnorr Sigs Implemented, APOS 3.0, AXH 2.0 Proposed

[AxiomCryptocurrency]

The next high POW/POS period begins in 6 weeks and we ask the GPU mining crowd to also share their code with the rest of the AXIOM community and keep our coin strong.

You tried to make a coin GPU-resistant, but it seems that you are not able to do it? Hmm.. In this case please make an official release of GPU miner.

We don't have a GPU miner, there are a few users with their own private miners.

Does Cryptsy even read this forum? maybe they know something we don't

Its a new Algo, its deserved.

They just looked at how many pages of posts this thread has. 127 pages is quite impressive for a coin that is less than a month old. Cryptsy is really good news though. They will never delist a coin, even if the network breaks.

Staking time!

[rt99]

For sure.  Stake stake stake
I don't know why everyone is surprised at a quick cryptsy addition.  Look at my posts again.  Great tech, great coin, new algorithm, new way of signing transactions.  All fantastic tech. I'll say it again:   Don't be fooled by the Fud in here.  They want these coins cheap.  Don't sell, buy, stake, hold for a month or so and be patient.

Frickn soooo many orphans.. what da f**K is going on?

Agree but AxiomCrypto say himself lead dev cutting off contact since 2 weeks!

I'll say again.  For the tenth time....be patient.  Every great crypto coin goes through growing pains.. Ups and downs, uncertainty, etc.     Be patient.  Hold, stake

So they destroys the conception of your coin (GPU hashes much faster than CPU, am I right?) and all you can do is to ask them to share their GPU mining SW?

This is the part I find most fucked up about this coin, does this prove that these closed source leeches that hoard the GPU miner have better coding skills than the dev that designed the algo?

cryptsy hasn't added a coin in ages, WTF

There are some things you can do to make orphans less.  I always like to limit my connections 8 or less seems best with maxconnections=8 or so.  I actually had the best time staking recently with only one connection.  I am not sure but block size may matter(if your chunks are getting to small they may not compete with the larger chunks).  I use coin control to keep the chunks about 250 or more but I really don't know what would be optimal I just would experiment and find out what works for you.

they only add coins with the best future.

If you took the x11 or x13 or any other algorithm and compared the hashing power of a cpu vs GPU it wouldn't even be 1%.  No way it would even be worth it.  With this algorithm the nicehash miner can do with a cpu near half the claimed rates I've seen with GPU mining and most likely at reduced energy consumption.  This makes cpu mining while not better necessarily at least able to compete with GPU mining and this is a feat in itself as no other coin I know of can claim this.

I really don't know if this is just to much for you all to understand or if you just like to troll.

Is it just me or is depositing to Cryptsy misbehaving?

200+ confirmations but nothing on Cryptsy yet.

AXIOM Update August 13

There has been a lack of communication from our lead technology and algorithm developer. We share the same frustrations as the community, and expected work to be completed at a quicker pace.

Before cutting off contact two weeks ago, the lead dev played around with various exploits and succeeded in fixing some and shared some of his findings with us. The AXIOM team was given compiled optimized wallets to test around the time we made the POS 3.0 announcements. We never received the source code to these optimized wallets.

For this reason, we have decided to release two of the optimized miners that were compiled by the lead developer. We hope to work with the incredibly motivated AXIOM community to continue building the project and harden the Proof of Stake protocol against such “optimizations” as these. We suspect the developer does not want to fix POS insecurities, and we invite the community to join us in our efforts to secure POS exploits in the #axiomcrypto channel on the Freenode IRC network.

The first manipulates a POS variable and a weight check in wallet.cpp to cause coins to split and stake more often than a normal wallet.

The second was delivered to us with much less of an explanation. It contains the above edits and also skips a CPU intensive “check” phase in POS. We aren’t sure exactly what this wallet is doing, but it seems to stake more often.


https://bitbucket.org/AxiomCryptocurrency/axiom/downloads/axiom-qt-staketest-optimized-staking-test2.zip


We are NOT certain what these wallets will do the network. We expect the POS difficulty to raise. If there are any network or blockchain problems we are equipped to hardfork and resolve any issues. Whatever happens, it will be interesting.

We are looking for more community involvement to aid us in reaching our development goals. This isn’t the end of the line, and with the help of the community, we can finish the project and revolutionize the Proof of Stake system by patching all possible exploits. The next high POW/POS period begins in 6 weeks and we ask the GPU mining crowd to also share their code with the rest of the AXIOM community and keep our coin strong.




More news soon.

Has anyone tested either of these wallets out or plan to? Let us know your experience if you do, I'm sure I'm not the only one curious.
