[ANN] Credits(CRDS): CPU-only mining | Argon2d PoW - Masternodes

[loremipsum]

we need to get innto others exchanges

i vote for cryptopia the best one

We are not in a hurry to get into more exchanges ATM. We want to have another update first (add support for an external miner and create a pool). CoinsMarkets is a new exchange but their volume is growing (24hr volume of 150K ATM).

But if you think you can help with another exchange, please do so

What exchanges can I buy this coin? and how many coins do I need for a Node ?

You can buy Credits on CoinsMarkets - https://coinsmarkets.com/trade-BTC-CRDS.htm

5,000 CRDS are needed as collateral to run a masternode.

few people know and use CoinMarkets...thats why almost it has no trade volume for Credits...

This coin has potential....experimental Algo....first coin to use the full potencial of Argon2d ....atractive front-end....
New way to Masternode...No Pool Miner YET capable of the full power of Argon2d...
Thats what it makes a coin to prevale...and endure for years...

but if it doesnt move to most used exchanges....if people dont stop selling for what they can get, low as they are doing right now...

Something must be done to make people look at it...

CoinsMarkets.com is what we've got right now. We are focused on developing the code for stand alone mining, some new bounty campaigns for marketing (to be announced soon) and then we'll be looking at some changes to further develop Credits. We've got a lot of things to do and in time we will be included on other exchanges I'm sure. We are working on completing the updated road map and will publish it as soon as we can. Unfortunately listing on a better exchange is not likely to be on the road map at this stage.

I joined the sig campaign but the 75 character count per post thing is not really my style, I post complete concise thoughts without the need for long blocks of text

What happened with network right about just now? Few client crashes, mined like 20 blocks per minute and then back to normal (mentioned blocks removed)

it looks like this project will be an exciting development so that many can be incorporated in this project. this is a great initiative. worth to follow

If a difficult block takes a while to be solved then the difficulty algorithm adjusts for the following blocks to ensure that there are close to 675 blocks per day. Do let's say a block hasn't been solved in an hour since the previous block, as soon as it is solved the chain will lower the difficulty to catch up on the blocks that should have been issued in that last hour.

Is it just me or are the wallet links on the crds.io website broken.. which lead to the github repository... which is missing all releases?

There is a new homepage.
https://crds.co/

It links to this github
https://github.com/CRDS/Credits/releases

The original developer left and it was then taken over by new developer. The old homepage and original github is still there so it makes it confusing. But if you go to first page of this thread and click the picture you will go to the new homepage.

We have published an updated roadmap for Credits - https://crds.co/roadmap.php At present our consulting developer is working on version Credits version 1.2.0 which will allow for an external miner to be used, and in turn the use of a mining pool. ETA is about 2 weeks.

Great news but I have concers regarding the roadmap which mention removing PoW rewards as an alternative after voting.

How is the Community voting going to take place?
I really don't want PoW rewards to be removed. I don't beleive the coin can survive without PoW.
It is also one of the very few coins that can be mined with CPU only. So I would like to participate in the voting.
It was CPU mining that made me interested in this coin and I don't think I am the only one.

What is the reason you consider to remove PoW in the first place?
Is there no option to leave it at PoW + Masternode rewards only?
Or PoW only if removing masternodes is an alternative? I think all options would be nice in the voting.
PoS and masternodes just makes it more complicated but I can understand that masternodes may be needed to get all the functions we want in the network. I like servers and creating masternodes but I beleive some people find it complicated.

What purpose do masternodes serve? In general I mean

They are full nodes, with static IP and a locked input as collateral.
But what is their function?

The vote will be a poll which will be posted in the #polls channel of the Credits Discord. I appreciate your opinion and ask that you cast your vote accordingly when the poll is opened.

The reason for considering the change it to make Credits more environmentally friendly as all mining uses quite a lot of power. There will be an option in the poll to leave the current PoS+MN reward system in place.

Masternodes are indeed full nodes. They provide high availability to the Credits network and allow Instant transactions to take place. In future they will be given more functionality as the code is developed further. The reward structure is designed to encourage more masternodes on the network which serves to better strengthen the network.

AFAIK it's under investigation. Was a general crash, both wallets and masternodes were shut down.

[lilaj4de]

One doubt, a few months ago had the bounty twitter campaign, and it seems that something had happened with the project, who participated in the campaign received the tokens?
