[ANN] *Aborted* Bitcoin Resilience: Cuckoo Cycle PoW Bitcoin Hardfork

[whoisthismanoO]

Node: https://github.com/hodlor1/bitcoin/tree/resilience

WTF? Why did you call git as bitcoin? lol  

[FreeZe_85]

IF THIS COIN FOR CARDS THEN IT'S COMPLETE SHIT!!!!!!

ASIC's and corporate miners are complete shit. For sure.  
I wish this project good luck. Will see about it.

ASIC's s the best OF the BEST THAT CAN BE
MINING ON GRAPHICS CARDS IS COMPLETE SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!

More BIG RED letters!
And by the way, asics are cenralized shit.

Bitcoin Resilience

Background

In recent months it has become self-evident that bitcoin mining is extremely centralized.
While the greater community shows almost no interest in the 2X fork, the threat of using said
centralized hashrate to disrupt the core chain to the benefit of 2X or BCash for a long period of time remains real.

An ASIC resistant PoW alternative where ASIC miners are not able to slow down progress must be available for the community.
(And Equihash forks with premine and consensus rules changes are clearly not it, sorry)


Cuckoo Cycle

We've picked the most ASIC resistant algorithm we could find:
https://github.com/tromp/cuckoo


Commitment to zero disruption to core chain

• We will fork on the same block as 2X does. This serves a double purpose:
   1. Services are already suspending activities because of the 2X fork
   2. If the core chain is attacked (reorg, wipeout, double spends, …), this is the time to offer the alternative
• "Magic bytes" are changed so Resilience nodes will not connect to core nodes

Details

Algorithm: Cuckoo Cycle: 42-cycle with a graph size of 2^30 (2^20 on testnet)
Premine: No.
Added Difficulty retarget: Emergency only
Two-Way Replay Protection: Yes
Intended for GPU mining.

Projects and sources

Node: https://github.com/hodlor1/bitcoin/tree/resilience
Pool implementation: https://github.com/hodlor1/ckpool
Miner implementation: https://github.com/hodlor1/sgminer
(Miner is provided as reference implementation as is not fully optimized)

! Status !
Public testnet is available and running, and everything released so far is intended for developers and other possible contributors.
We will release binaries as we get closer to fork time.

How do you mine? algorithm? pool?

Algorithm: Cuckoo Cycle

DEV, what about total coin supply? 21m like simple Bitcoin?
Block time?
Block reward?

pool?wallet?

[commax]

Which exchange support this coin ?

[JungleOnion]

Damn I love the algo's name. I'm up for it I wanna mine it

it's a bitcoin hardfork, we only changed the PoW algorithm

Will there ccminer for NVIDIA and compiled wallets from start?

[tromp]

You'll need to change the difficulty as well.
And possibly the difficulty adjustment, since rapid hashpower fluctuations are to be expected.

You are correct, and we have.
The mining difficulty will be reset when the PoW changes, and emergency retarget has been also been implemented
that's what is written in the OP as well.
i was answering a comment about block time and rewards and didn't realize i was making too general of a statement.
The core principle is to only change what needs to be changed

[Glebonator]

Wow! Is it really cuckoo cycle implementation? It's great algo with asic resistant and botnet resistant. I'm in.

You can help by spreading the word on social media! 

[hodlor1]

In which country this will be working? This will be for limited countries?

in any country where bitcoin works

[olexx]

Why don't you just start a new coin? Copying of BTC blockchain is already tiresome.

[MegaAzer]

Where to buy tokens?

[abhishekseth]

Sounds interesting...Waiting for more details

[Children of Gaia]

I've asked twice about working, compiled stuff for mining before the start, but looks like i'm ignored.

you weren't ignored
there will be compiled stuff before the start, which is in 10 days
we are now in public testnet phase aimed at devs, and the mainnet version hasn't been released yet
