I wasn't going to discuss that algorithm at all, but you were asking about it ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) It isn't clear what you were talking about from the thread; it was ambiguous.

it sounds like just a currency turned into a payment processing type structure....
Just like PayPal How will coins be distributed without mining?

that hasn't been explicitly stated, but I believe it would work as a phase 2 of a cryptocurrency. I.e., once the emission is complete, this kicks in, similar to how some PoS systems work.

So, this is a really neat idea for a new coin and sounds like a possible winner in the long run of things, if bitcoin hits a real snag and can't come up with a plan of attack to fix the block size problem. But I was curious, so each "node" in the sense would have to be distributed geographically to be able to adequately send transactions in any part of the world? I'm just having trouble understanding how this could work without the blockchain system, and can't seem to grasp the idea that if say, no nodes where on the continent of Australia... then it would be very hard to transact to anyone that would want a transaction sent to them if they didn't run a "node themselves" ...
I was trying to read a majority of the thread, but honestly, I'm not in the mood for diving into reading a whole thread right now.
Also, has this coin been implemented yet? Or is there a specific release date?

Does your coin is open source,i know currency half second transaction fast,running from one year
But not open source,.There is not possible to find exchange becouse not open source and not blockchain technology
Now 12 october beta test of yet another is starting,it will be exchangable to fiat.Proof of Time,supply will be through searching internet,currency will be backed by products
if anybody is intersted in ,feel free to pm me

I'm evidently not as mathematically gifted as some of you in this thread and am having trouble wrapping my head around what is being proposed. If anyone ever has any spare time, some Alice and Bob graphics to help clarify how exactly this network would work could help immensely.

Sorry, could not resist. I do hope that one day we get to see an actual implementation and the expectations turn out to be properly set.

If we can't build a Blockchain system without Bitcoin, why will be possible to build a Bitcoin without a Blockchain? It is interesting, because having a working proof of DagCoin will definitely separate the concepts of Blockchain and Crypto-Currency.
Looking forward to the 0.1 version release.

Ethereum uses DAG aswell, any comparisons that can be made?

DAG != DAG, we can say that Bitcoin uses DAG as well.

I've been thinking about this on and off for a bit... How is difficulty handled in this system? The paper doesn't go into much detail, but it does hint at some kind of deterministic difficulty computation?
Unless the difficulty of producing a new block is at maximum network difficulty, the system could be subject to sybil attack?

Why? By 'maximum network difficulty' I refer to a difficulty adjusted to cope with participation as in bitcoin. Given that, if you have differing sets of difficulty depending on where you put your new block in a DAG, it means that you can produce different numbers of blocks depending on placement for the same CPU power, hence this opens the system up to sybil attack.

If you count weight of blocks depending on difficulty you don't have problems with sybil attack. 10 blocks with difficlty 2 and 1 block with difficulty 20 are the same.

This is true, but if you don't have a continuously adjusting difficulty, how can you tell what the amount of work is required to 'confirm' a transaction?

After some adaptation period when a transaction is included into most of tips you need to wait constant time without paying attention to difficulty. A similar thing exists in blockchain-based PoW coins - it's passed time that matters, not number of blocks (if waiting time >> block time, which is necessary to reduce effect of variation).
