WhaleCoin



Abstract
We describe a simple mined cryptographic blockchain which
is designed to power a unique decentralized social network. The social
network supports several types of roles and notably the “Whale” role
which is given to any user who holds at least 1,000 tokens. The total
number of Whales on this network will always be limited and Whales
will have the power to influence how blockchain rewards are distributed.
An incentive structure will be designed so that “Followers” will attempt
to gain approval from Whales who will then influence the blockchain to
send them rewards.

Technical
Based on Ethereum
Miners send mined coins to a smart contract which pays for the Development Fund and Follower Rewards.
Social network Dapp to be launched after Block #200,000

Custom Difficulty Adjustment Algorithm: "Ahab"
WhaleCoin created a new hyper aggressive difficulty adjustment algorithm, which adjusts the difficulty of every block by +/-10% of the previous block based on whether the last block occurred faster or slower than the target time (20 seconds), meaning the difficulty can adjust exponentially if necessary. This should help protect the chain from 51% mining attacks.





Genesis Block Start Date
September 4, 2017 11am Pacific Time

Current Coin Distribution
This is a 100% mined coin with no pre mine or ICO.  After coins are mined, miners send some of the coins to a development and social contract fund.  The amount depends on what miners agree on based on consensus of the code they run at the time.

Current Coin Distribution (After Block #863270)
Miners: 50%
Followers: 40%
Development Fund: 10%

Coin Distribution (Block #200,000- #863270)
Miners: 34%
Development Fund: 33%
Followers: 33%

Coin Distribution (Block #1-#200,000)
Miners: 67%
Development Fund: 33%

You mentioned to the miners at least have a supply of 1000 tokens.
Is not that big enough for the early players?

I hope so the dev will learn from those mistakes I'm sure about that if he fails this one, then we should not trust another coin that will come out with a whale on it even though a cryptocurrency whales are running it

Will the wallet, pools, miner, etc, all be ready before release? So right on release day we can start mining immediately?

Thanks, and good luck! Wink

Interesting idea, and I like that there's no ICO, but the developer fee seems a bit too high. I'm fine with a project being self-funded, since crypto currencies are basically software and software needs maintenance, but what are the plans for the funds? I'm potentially interested, but I'll wait for an actual product.
