[PRE-ANN] [XDB] Doubloon - Privacy Evolved

[wtfpdf]

This sounds interesting!

Will itsuku be possible to mine with a CPU?

Yes, Itsuku seems to be CPU/GPU oriented

Finding schemes for which ASIC or FPGA hardware implementations do not show an undue advantage over CPU or GPU software implementations is key to avoid the kind of mining power concentration that has occurred with Bitcoin.

Here is the whitepaper, expected CPU/GPU performances are on page nr.15

That is awesome! I will be following this closely then :-)
And thank you for the link!

[GeePeeU]

Project looks pretty ambitious. Hopefully I don't miss the launch.
Looking forward to testing the new algo for mining.
Good luck devs.

[petezza]

Looks good to me. Will follow this closely.

I know you guys may have already answered this, but from what I am understanding, Doubloon is not going to be air dropped and instead will be a standalone currency alongside BBR? I keep reading posts that say that the hardfork was cancelled and that Doubloon will be released as a standalone in Q1 2018 for mining and buying. Also, where is the best place to be first in the know when we can start buying and mining?

here is the best place I imagine. also their chat is active.
I have been logging to check on status. first quarter is a whole 3 month period maybe sooner.

sounds like interesting project, looking forward for network start

Nice..I read about the hashing algo and now they most definitely have my attention.

@b4h4mu7 I'll translate it to Portuguese Brazil, because are so many confusion about it, and seems the people don't read or don't understand it Yet!

Thanks for the translation! PM your BBR address and I'll send you coin for your efforts.

Please please kept Wild Keccak as the algo. z-cash algo sucks big time. Cryptonote Devolved

Hi tbearhere,

Thank you for your valued feedback! Itsuku is not the Zcash algorithm, that would be Equihash. Itusku is loosely based on the "MTP-Argon2" design from the authors of the Zcash algorithm, Equihash. I hope this helps clear up any confusion there. For more information on the algorithm please visit the publication https://eprint.iacr.org/2017/1168

I was thinking this would be the best place too. I wonder, however, where we might buy this? Perhaps Kucoin?

When can we go online?

[RinceWind84]

When can we go online?

I think we are all still patiently waiting for the dev's to post some news on that.
Q1 is till young

Nice project. Can't wait for several month, hope to buy Doubloon(XDB) the next week.

Is there any schedule for Doubloon(XDB) ? Need some network test? I can help to test network. By the way, I am a software engineer, with ten years experiences of SW dev.

Roadmap looks impressive, and the way launch is being prepared is attracting. Waiting to put my rig to it

[mandor]

hopefully this project has a mission and a good vision for in a the future and always giving development with good. all details this project still coming soon and everyone in here waiting more next information about this project including me. good luck

[Hakamura]

good project.
I wonder how you will develop your new coin, I will follow your news. I think you will succeed

[runner-yc-0621]

"Doubloon is a groundbreaking cryptocurrency research project that has pioneered many new improvements not present in any other project. The main highlights of our research efforts include a brand new Egalitarian mining algorithm called Itsuku along with pioneering our new trustless zero knowledge system."

Great project! I am here waiting project launching!

[alabeco]

This looks interesting. I am also waiting

[renaldn]

"Financial Privacy" sounds good!
Curious to see more!

[P86M]

Looks promising!
