Shall we contact igotspots to open a parabolas spots franchise?

A parabola (plural parabolas or parabolae, adjective parabolic, from Greek: παραβoλή) is a two-dimensional, mirror-symmetrical curve. y = x2 |

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.

Sorry for being inactive, I have been very busy; is there any new news on development?
Thank you to all involved!

Well I can help with Pool for sure (as long as i can build the daemon on linux..) and maybe a block explorer it nobody else hosts it.  |
Minar.cc pools are not running anymore, the domain was registered by someone else and I don't have any relationship with the new owner.

The source is found here, right? In that case we would need to write the hash functions. However, I see that MARS, RC6, Rijndael (AES), Serpent, Square and Twofish are ciphers. This means that we would need keys. Could someone suggest some keys? Also, what is this Square cipher? (don't tell me you take output=input^2?) My proposal: SHA-512 (or 256) -> 16 rounds of ciphering -> SHA-256 |

My experience in cryptography is limited but I will ask around! |

I can't believe people are still making scam coins. Yes, setting up the coin to pay off the developers is a scam, it doesn't matter if it's done in a "nice" way.
How can you justify skimming off the top? "The developers deserve to get rewarded for their work!!!!" No. If the developer wants to get paid, he can mine the coin just like everyone else.
If you are actually interested in cryptocoins, you won't be doing search+replace on some other coin, you'll add features that no other coin has. If you were actually putting any work in this at all, you wouldn't be skimming or premining because you'd want the coin to succeed.
If you actually want to help the community, you will be releasing a coin without any scams. What you are proposing for this shitcoin is a scam.

? What if the developer doesn't have a mining rig? The dev fund is just like mining, except it doesn't waste electricity. |

There are only a few ways to let developers get coins without mining - premine, taking a cut of every block, taking a cut of some blocks and relying on donations. The first is extremely frowned upon in the crypto community and would probably harm adoption (unless it is really small, in which case your revenue is almost worthless). The second is what a few other coins are doing, but if we want to do that you could take something like 0.5% instead of the crazy amounts the others are taking. The third is our proposal and is practically identical to the second. The fourth is problematic - in this mining world, margins are everything, so you are not likely to get much donations. Also, aa: you should go support some other coin with your hashpower if you disagree with a coin's philosophy. |
