I'm a miner and interested in AE. However, I'm not easily locating alot of information.
1. Was there an ICO? 2. Was there a premine? 3. How much VRAM is needed to mine it? I don't actually know that I can mine this coin, haven't seen a statement on what hardware is needed. Only that it will run under Ubuntu currently.
Wanted to point out according to the pool stats page posted elsewhere that one single pool has over %90 of the hashrate. Don't want to call this thing a ****coin because I don't like use profanity but this mainnet launch is looking kinda rough so far.
I'm rather intrigued by the Cuckoo algorithm. The only implementation I know of is in GrinCoin and it's supposedly needing over 6 GB of VRAM. Is this using a fork or modded version of it by chance that will take less than 6 GB of VRAM? I haven't seen any GPU requirements. Is it a safe assumption it will run on a Quadro or Titan V? I have seen on Discord that Cuckoo runs horribly on AMD cards but on another project unrelated to this one.
Hey, Let me try answering your questions: 1. æternity did not do an ICO, it ran a campaign - we are currently in the second phase of migrating the AE ERC-20 token to the AE live-network token. 2. There was no pre-mining, see more here. 3. The best place to find mining (and any other kind of) information is our Forum. Find here GPU memory requirements. The Roma Release was not an easy task and there was some power concentration for a while due to a number of factors. Initially, Windows mining was not available, nor people could mine using AMD cars. However, those problems are quickly being resolved, many mining improvements are being deployed daily and our dev team is currently preparing a binary of the Windows version of the æternity node. We are persuaded that the mining power will be fairly distributed among all participating pools very soon. Let us know if you have more questions. Happy mining! The AE Team While I appreciate your parsing of the language to appease your securities counsel, It is a bit disingenuous to say you did a campaign rather than an ICO. To answer the question correctly and without being misleading, yes, Aeternity collected funds in a fundraising effort so that they would have the capital to implement their vision, and at the time it was a fairly substantial amount of money collected over 2 separate fundraising time periods. So for the purposes of the question, yes there was an "ICO" in the sense that the team collected money to fund the project and assuming it proceeds accordingly, participants will receive what presumably would be considered a utility token. Whether or not it passes the Howey test is something that you most likely ran by counsel and I would assume they are helping you to mitigate any potential issues in the future. So I understand your reasoning for phrasing it the way you did.

It is very good to follow the AeternityTECH twitter account because most of the people who are with aeternity will follow their technical updates through twitter now. I hope Aeternity team is technically strong in all aspects of their development.

It is true that what you say is that by following the Twitter account, maybe we will not miss the development update about the project and I think of course it is very good

Hello again, We are constantly adding new guides and tutorials for developers and miners to the æternity blog so make sure you’re reviewing it regularly. Learn how to register and update a name or how to operate oracle transactions. GETTING STARTED RESOURCESMore “how to” content coming soon! Best regards, The AE Team

When can we send the mainnet tokens off Air Gap crap to somewhere less confusing, never sene such over complciated junk in a app before, so many people here are going to end up loosing coins, its not funny.
So, when can we send mainnet AE to exchange please?
Withdraw from AirGap wallet is now available but the only exchange that is currently supporting mainnet AE is hotbit exchange. Hotbit does not support Mainnet AE. They only accepted deposit of ERC20, and only recently confirmed they will transfer but have halted all withdraws and deposits until that occurs.

They have already converted AE ERC20 to mainnet AE. You can deposit and withdraw mainnet AE now and any AE ERC20 deposited will be converted automatically.

Generally, I don't think AirGap is not bad at all. I have had no issues with it along with many other users. We also have a number of video guides on how to use it. It is really no different than any other wallet, but with the added security benefit of an offline signing solution. If you have your seed phrase written down, there is no way to lose coins (as in all other wallets). Best, Vlad You know, for some reason I am constantly having a problems with sending transactions from this wallet (Android on Smsng Galaxy S7). It can be a problem with signing a transaction, but the problem is solved by itself, if you wait for a while. Next time (it is what I have now) the transaction can't be broadcasted with message: "Transaction broadcasting failed: Error:request failed with status code 400". (p.s. the issue has been resolved with AirGap wallet update, but I do updates regularly...) This is first time I see such a strange wallet from 2013. Why don't you just provide AE community with simple and really working wallet together with AirGap? So people could decide which one to use. And another question: when and how will be PoS? Will there be any new wallet for staking?

Hey, The "error 400" issue has been identified and fixed already. You can just update your AirGap wallet to the latest version and you should be set. Ledger integration is coming, as well as the ability to integrate the Base æpp with AirGap Vault. More wallet will follow. Regarding PoS - there will be no staking. PoS will be used only for governance - users will be ale to add their token weight to answers and thus provide a signal what they think about a certain issue. Anyone who has AE tokens can post questions and any other AE user can reply. Best, Vlad

I am looking at the timing when Aeternity just got ready to take over the Ethereum. Next year what is going to happen that is not a secret anymore and we can say a new stage will be set for new players those are ready to provide solutions. Aeternity for this has been developed all the year long. About others at this moment, I don't know, but I see what is coming in next few months.

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT FOR ALL MINERS AND POOLS!We strongly recommend mining only on the latest micro block! This will greatly improve network efficiency and speed. We are thinking of making this mandatory in the æternity node. Have a look at this presentation by Michal Zajda from the dev team to learn more. READ THE PRESENTATIONBest, Vlad

I just completed swap process to move my tokens to mainnet so for this process I have to wait till hard fork which is planned after 2 months. Is there is any chance to get my token before this?

No, you will have to wait until February (the hard fork month) and AFAIK there is no way to speed up the process.
