Hey there folks, I'm creating a new altcoin . I could've simply forked from another altcoin , modified it a bit and published it, but I'm really inspired by the way curecoin works. Instead of simply calculating hashes that are useless, why not use that processing power for something that would be useful like protein folding that helps in discovering cures for diseases. But since curecoin does protein folding I wanted to do something different. So I ask you guys for some ideas.

Official website : https://Rigel.pro  ( Not yet online as of Jan 10, 2018 )

Here are some additional planned features :

1. Constant price ( IDK if this is possible. Someone throw some light on me in the comments )
2. Instant transactions
3. Official mobile apps for real world trading. ( who knows ? May be one day you can walk into the grocery store and pay instantly with Rigel from your phone.)

Looking forward to see Rigel online.

UPDATE 1 ( Jan 10, 2018)

I did some research and found that having a constant price is not possible , atleast as far as I know.
Waiting for some response from community  Smiley

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.

You are right (1) is not possible.

What about a RaiBlocks fork with fixes to actually make it decentralized and secure and also have smart contracts and some kind of block reward?

Notable projects 2019: Semux, Dero, Wagerr, BEAM

Thanks for taking interest. I'm not sure I understand Raiblocks. There's little to no information about what it is on their website. Mind explaining what the currency does?
