Vertcoin [VTC][ANN] Segwit Activated | ASIC Resistant Decentralized GPU Mining

[TeamUnitus]

Make sure to get FREE UIS for merge mining VTC via the GPU mineable algorithm, Lyra2re2 at https://vertcoin.easymine.online/

https://www.crypto-coinz.net/recommended-crypto-pools-for/?169-Vertcoin-VTC-Lyra2v2-minning-pools/ over 90% is unknown. I also stop mining vtc with GPU rig, reward is too low. Maybe there Lyra2v2 asic miner

A lot of miners.

Vertcoin is so undervalued but what’s the problem with Vertcoin. If it has so many cool features why hasnt the price exploded yet? Waiting from long time. I hope 2019 will be the good year for VTC.

When atomic swap is implemented the centralized exchanges will disappear. the decentralized economy will be unified in bitcoin when bitone network starts to work, the presale is a few weeks. We can exchange    VERTCOIN      in a decentralized manner.

$2 soon....(maybe more) and $5 .... next week (for sure)

What is Vertcoin?

Vertcoin is different. Unlike many other coins you will see on this forum, Vertcoin has a purpose, a goal which drives the community and developers to constantly innovate. Committed to the decentralisation Satoshi originally dreamed of, Vert has consistently evolved over time to combat the threats to this dream. As a result, one of our main features is ASIC resistance, having forked successfully to a new proof of work algorithm called "Lyra2RE" upon discovering that Scrypt-N ASICs were being developed, and Lyra2reV2 after discovering a botnet. We believe that by keeping the mining process in the hands of those with generalised, low-risk, consumer grade hardware, we can lower the entry requirement for miners, increasing the number of individuals mining the coin which in turn leads to true decentralisation.

Our primary innovations

Current hashing algorithm: Lyra2REv2

White paper: https://vertcoin.org/downloads/Vertcoin_Lyra2RE_Paper_11292014.pdf

Our revolutionary new proof of work algorithm, designed to be ASIC resistant at its core, made its debut at block 208301. In addition, responding to calls from our miners, Lyra2RE has a ~15% power usage reduction on X11. Lyra2RE has replaced Scrypt-N, our previous proof of work and a Vertcoin innovation in itself, in order to defeat the ASIC miners that were released for it. The fork has successfully been carried out, once again making Vertcoin a decentralised, ASIC-free zone and fulfilling Vertcoin's promise to hard-fork if an ASIC threat becomes apparent, a promise which Litecoin made, but didn't deliver on.

I'd rather have bought such a thing like him. I have been dealing with crypto currency recently, so I have very few coins.
I hope someone will support you and buy a T-shirt. This is a good coin.

How does this benefit small scale businesses? Yes there are problems that they are facing but what advantages can you offer over existing methods and how can blockchain help in solving the existing problems?

I wonder whether the developers will change the algorithm or all the same will be a coin for ASIC
