[ANN] Expanse (EXP) - 1st Stable fork of Ethereum (New Algo + PirlGuard)

[ocminer]

Anyone having issues on supernova can only log into five pools everything else is down

For me too. Mining is working fine. Perhaps only frontend is down

Hope that's all it is all the supernova pool's are showing the same thing

Frontend was having some issues, check my Twitter, it is all fixed in the meanwhile, thanks for your trust and patience

Can anyone explain the difference between Ethereum and Expanse? Are their any extra's Expanse has compared to Ethereum? Or is the same but with less available coins?

Thanks for any reply in advance!

I actually opted to buy some EXP instead of ETH thinking the rise % would be higher. Didn't pan out I suppose.

You may have spoken too soon. It appears it may be breaking out right now.

BTC slingshots LTC, just like ETH will slingshot EXP IMO.

[groomsxxx]

it's way behind so it surely needs that slingshot.

Not really, took LTC a lot of time as well to adapt to what it became later compared to how it followed BTC's price after that.

If you compare Expanse (EXP) and Ethereum (ETH), they are relatively the same way except that EXP has less available coins. A good advantage of EXP is that its mining difficulty is lower than ETH, which makes it much more profitable to mine. Also, it is far cheaper than Ethereum so investing in it right now would be a good start.

Any simple EXP wallets around? What wallet is presently recommended? thanks

I think that the simplest EXP wallet right now, would be a paper wallet. If you'd like to make one, just visit this site: http://exp.rocks and you'll be all set. There is also a GUI wallet for EXP, but it is still in beta stage. You can check it out by visiting the official page at: http://expanse.tech  Hope this helps

I assume the mining difficulty will increase if more people start mining? Do you know how many coins can be mined each year?

I already invested in Expanse. I found it on Poloniex. Looked undervalued compared to the trade volume. Now I found out it has ETH tech and a nice active community, I think I will be on board for a long and happy time;)

Thanks again!

I am glad that you found out EXP is a great investment. About the mining difficulty, it could increase once more people start mining it. It should happen with all crypto currencies. For the amount of coins that can be mined each year, I am may not be able to answer that for you but I'll leave that to the Expanse team.

Thanks - Hoping I can generate a wallet offline though.
Has/is the mist wallet from ethereum been forked to expanse?

It could be, but I am not really sure how to answer that question. But as far as I can tell, it looks to me that it could be the same Mist wallet from Ethereum but forked to Expanse. (I hope I am wrong) Anyways, we have now reached the Homestead release in both EXP and ETH which could mean that more exciting things are about to come.

Another couple of questions
 - will expanse have a proof of stake function similar to ethereum where you can stake 1250 EXP and get a return on that?
 - Does exp need to be ported across from homestead release, is this port being worked on in github?
Sorry for all the questions and thanks in advance.

update:
it looks like the premine addresses are here

10M no transactions yet

My team forked Mist to Expanse blockchain, it will be available in 2-3 days.

Is that right?

Coinmarketcap.com states that the total available supply is 1,170,379 EXP.

Coinmarketcap don't list the premine because it is in a semi out-of-circulation state. Basically it isn't availaible to the users, so it isn't counted.

Expanse (EXP) is the first eth clone?

Expanse (EXP) is the first eth clone?

Actually Shift is the first Ethereum clone.

There are two other ETH clones:

1.Soil
http://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/soilcoin/
http://soilcoin.xyz/


2. Shift (The first Ethereum fork)
http://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/shift/
http://shiftcoin.weebly.com/ (Shows info about the current state when scrolling down)

I think all of them can build something great considering the strength of the Ethereum framework. Shift for example just lacks dev activity but the community works on getting one on board.

In terms of Shift, there has been progress - I recommend to follow the corresponding Thread:
