[ANN][ABC] ABC Blockchain Protocol | Launch 11 May, 2017 - 16:00 UTC

[LoyceV]

The developers launching ABC are not compensated in any way for their efforts developing/maintaining the ABC protocol.
The developers will maintain and update the protocol in effort to provide a useful system to users, this may include a fork to a contracting codebase in the future.

Without compensation, developers have no incentive to keep working on this. What motivates them to keep working? I guess developers will be mining coins from the beginning, and make up for the lack of premine, am I right?

How this initial mining works, is mining software incorporated to the wallet

You will need to mine it using getwork, with a mining program as its not built in,
or contact a pool and have them add ABC mining.

Agree, need a wallet and pool, without it how we can mine this coin

ABC will be a user driven project not a developer driven project. The users will need to take initiative.


ABC has no crowdfunding
ABC has no pre-mine
ABC developers are not compensated


The developers launching ABC are not compensated in any way for their efforts developing/maintaining the ABC protocol.
The developers will maintain and update the protocol in effort to provide a useful system to users, this may include a fork to a contracting codebase in the future.
The goal of the developers is to maintain a stable blockchain that will enable the creation of applications upon it.
The developers will not participate in "marketing" or acquiring exchange listings, but will provide necessary information to users.  
The developers offer no warranty to users wishing to participate in the ABC protocol. The ABC protocol is offered as open-source freeware.

Please read the OP. The wallets are coming...TBA.

Please be patient. We will announce 1 hour prior to the start of PoW. The first 1000 blocks (approx 33 hours) have a reward of only 1ABC to ensure an equal opportunity launch.

Are you going to release the source code, too? Then we can build it by ourself.
