Idea: AutoMorphicCoin

[r3wt]

AutoMorphic Numbers, or Circular Numbers are a number who's square ends in the same digit as the number its self, example: 5 is an automorphic number, becauses its square is 25.

Algorithm:




platform:
cpu

how it works:

when mining, your cpu computes a number based upon N, then checks to see if its an Automorphic Number. If it is an automorphic number, a block is generated.


what do you guys think?

Pros and Cons?

any legitimate use for a coin like this in terms of science/mathematics?

sounds like a good idea, also fibonacci numbers would be nice.

Due to your definition of automorphic numbers, they are not very hard to find. Actually any (natural) number which ends to digits 0, 1, 5 or 6 is an automorphic number (bad name you've chosen for them). Shorter: if n mod 10= 0, 1, 5 or 6
The list is easy and smooth as you see: 1, 5, 6, 10, 11, 15, 16, 20, 21, 25, 26, 30, 31, 35, 36, 40, 41, 45, 46, 50..............
Even a 5 years old kid can list them quickly...

Who was your math teacher??? Was a funny innovation
