Quarkcoin clones, which ones are still floating around out there

[rmhuntley]

Which quarkcoin clones are still floating around? I know of Offerings, but that is the only clone I know of that is still kicking. Are there any others?

[Tash]

Quark is the clone of Sifcoin which is the mother (inventor) of all chained coins
Blake=BMW=Groestl=JH=Keccak=Skein....... which btw is total cryptographic nonsense.


Edit:
Correct order of chained coins by block 0 (genesis) date-stamp:

Sifcoin                              6 hash (Blake, BMW, Groestl, JH, Keccak, Skein)
Quark                               9 hash, 3 random (Blake, BMW, Grøstl|Skein, Grøstl, JH, Blake|BMW, Keccak, Skein, Keccak|JH)  
Qubitcoin                          5 hash (Luffa, Cubehash, SHAvite, SIMD, Echo)
Chaincoin                       11 hash (Blake, BMW, Grøstl, JH, Keccak, Skein, Luffa, Cubehash, SHAvite, SIMD, Echo)
XCoin (Darkcoin, Dash) 11 hash (Blake, BMW, Grøstl, Skein, JH, Keccak, Luffa, Cubehash, SHAvite, SIMD, Echo)
......


Qubitcoin
Chaincoin   Block 0  2014-01-18 20:50:20
XCoin (Darkcoin, Dash) Block 0 2014-01-19 01:40:18

ok, let me rephrase. any other Sifcoin clones still floatingaround?

Your respondent is correct, up to a point. SIF was the inspiration for the quark folklore combiner and others followed but it's not a clone in that the different combiners use different ranges of algos in different sequential order. I've taken the liberty of labelling the Sifcoin algo “nist6” - i.e. 6 of the NIST algos (as opposed to, e.g. the much later nist5).

fixed order:

Code:

Sifcoin: nist6 = BLAKE, BlueMidnightWish, Grøstl, JH, Keccak, Skein
Chaincoin: c11 = Blake, BlueMidnightWish, Grøstl, JH, Keccak, Skein, Luffa, Cubehash, SHAvite, SIMD, Echo
X11coin:   x11 = Blake, BlueMidnightWish, Grøstl, Skein, JH, Keccak, Luffa, Cubehash, SHAvite, SIMD, Echo

varying order

Code:

Quarkcoin:       quark = Blake, BlueMidnightWish, Grøstl|Skein, Grøstl, JH, Blake|BlueMidnightWish, Keccak, Skein, Keccak|JH
Roulettecoin: roulette = SHA2, Blake|BlueMidnightWish|Cubehash|Echo|Fugue|Grøstl|Hamsi|JH|Keccak|Luffa|SHA2|Shabal|SHAvite|SIMD|Skein|Whirlpool

With Quarkcoin, 9 rounds of hashing is performed with three rounds using a random choice of one of the two algos listed

With Roulettecoin, the first block is hashed with SHA2, then 16 rounds of hashing are performed sequentially, each using a random choice of one of the set of 16 algos listed

Returning to your original question, if I pose the question as a SPARQL query of the DOACC RDF graph:

Code:

PREFIX doacc: <http://purl.org/net/bel-epa/doacc#>
PREFIX skos: <http://www.w3.org/2004/02/skos/core#>

SELECT ?node ?name ?symbol ?alg ?date ?status
WHERE {
    doacc:D67af5c41-6b6e-40d3-9eba-f4d92b46f71e skos:prefLabel ?alg .
    ?node doacc:pow doacc:D67af5c41-6b6e-40d3-9eba-f4d92b46f71e .
    ?node skos:prefLabel ?name .
    ?node doacc:symbol ?symbol .
    ?node doacc:incept ?date .
    ?node doacc:expiration ?status .
} ORDER BY ?name

I get the following results (edited slightly for this context):

Notes:

1. Hyperlinks unapologetically point to Minkiz (*) Linked Open Data browser pages, an HTML rendering of the underlying RDF representation
2. The value of the “status” field is, of course, contentious and probably incorrect.

Thanks, nice info wasn't aware of Caincoin another coin having Qubitcoin at the back. (Luffa, Cubehash, Shavite, Simd, Echo)

The power is something else ...

Yes, Qubitcoin (2014-01-12) preceded Chaincoin (2014-01-19) by a week

Running the same query with qubit as algo yields ...

Just in case it helps, here's a SPARQL query that lists all the different pow schemes in DOACC:

Code:

PREFIX doacc: <http://purl.org/net/bel-epa/doacc#>
PREFIX skos: <http://www.w3.org/2004/02/skos/core#>

SELECT DISTINCT(?powalgo as ?algo) ?name WHERE {
    ?node doacc:pow ?powalgo .
    ?powalgo skos:prefLabel ?name .
} ORDER BY ?name

Returns (slightly edited for this context):

Again, the hyperlinks resolve to a Minkiz LOD browser page showing details of the PoW scheme including a list of all the coins that use that particular scheme. And therein lies the power.

I'm still expanding the information for landmark features such as  PoW scheme, there’s data for a couple of hundred recently-launched alts to be added and there’s some amendments to be made (see 3s for eg)

Nice to see that simple inflation coin is finally recognized by at least a few who was the 'mother' of all these.
