|||||||||   CATON   |||||||||
Catalonian based cryptocurrency
Catalonian based - Private - Fair  




Initially made with a bare cryptonote fork, Caton aims to be used in Catalonia but not limited to.
With ecology in mind developers team are implementing a diff target limit that will decrease the block reward proportionally when the difficulty is bigger than the target diff. Target Diff is updated with a fork every winter solstice, having in mind the current hardware hashrate and its power consumption. Initial limit will be the diff equivalent to 2.1GH/s

At the moment developers aren't being announced due the possible Spanish state repression. Depending on the government response developers will be revealed. (Check 1st October 2017 catalonian referendum news to know what happened to people who want to vote. Government seized domains, reported to the courts people who organized a referendum and jailed preventively who defended the independence peacefully, catalonian government was dissolved by the prime minister Mariano Rajoy).


Launch date:
Caton's genesis tx has been generated on UTC 21/12/2017 at 22:48.
Caton's genesis tx has been generated on UTC 22/12/2017 at 21:14.
Caton's seed nodes launched on UTC 22/12/2017 at 21:57.


Specs:
PoW: Cryptonight
Block target time: 180s
Total supply: 14.000.000 CTN
Fair launch (UTC 22/12/2017 at 21:57, no premine, no instamine)
High diff block reward penalty
(Visit cryptonote.org to know more about cryptonote technology)


Source code and binaries:
Source code
Linux x64 binaries
Linux x86 binaries: Next days
Windows binaries: building & testing



Roadmap & Eviroment:
Implement difficulty penalties
Foundation's website
User guides



V0.0.0.1 Note:
Due a mistake with caton's parameters, launched chain on 21/12 isn't valid. Those who mined some catons on the broken chain, before height 593, will be credited proportionally with some catons in new chain (not all mined units) be sure to keep a copy of daemon folder (renamed, in order to run new chain), do not delete your wallet files to perform the mined accreditation (do not use in new blockchain).

We don't think that 2 coins are too much for Catalonia, but Caton is not limited to Catalonia. If you look closer there are differences between them.
However market will decide what happens.
Thanks for your opinion.

Yes, you are right, Market will decide what happens to the coin, but how it will perform in the market depends also with the developer. With that, the dev team has big role to fulfill to make this coin alive.

We, the devs, are fully compromised with the development and maintenance of the coin and its environment. What happens is that we won't announce our real names right now, as is explained.

At the specified time, genesis block will be generated, tx included in the source and source code will be posted on github.
With fair we mean that anyone, including the coin foundation, will have the same opportunities to run a node and miners.
No premine, no instamine, first block reward will be calculated with (m_moneySupply - alreadyGeneratedCoins) >> m_emissionSpeedFactor.

I understand you is not easy. But what about Catalonia long before Spain and the European Union? How will this affect the price of the future state coin and how will it be reinforced if the crisis has not yet ended?

For anyone who's interested, our team wrote up a paper on how cryptocurrency could assist Catalan financial independence: https://blog.havven.io/catalan-independence-and-the-blockchain-6bc77fab851c
