How is EGem different than ethereum apart from few basic changes.
I want to know what exactly do you plan to achieve.
If its just about speed then there are a lot of other networks like EOS, Tron which can achieve the same.
If its just about a different skin of Ether then it makes no sense.
Ethereum also has a list of plans to make a move towards POS, along with addressing the scalability issue. If they are successful then there wont be any need for EGem.
Just curious about why are people supporting this project.
Looks like a lot of shilling going on in twitter for the same.
Ethereum, EOS, and Tron were all ICO's, which did not have a fairly distributed mine. Unless these were somehow not premined for sale. So when Ethererum goes POS, who is going to be major staking on that network? Fairly disbursed in the long run seems better to me. And there is a high chance ASIC's cant do POW on EGEM right now. Which means in the first era of mining its a pretty level playing field for GPU's to get block rewards. EGEM does move quick. Also has a separate sidechain they are working on to work with the main blockchain. Hopefully some devs will come in here to explain that part. |

EGEM was created with the intention of launching an integrated subchain. That morphed into Sapphire(SFRX) seen here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5063954.0;allThis project with the combined chains is based off a project used in US government 15 years in making. Bringing some of that tech to the blockchain we think will change how crypto is looked at. We are not trying to copy Ethereum, just used them as a base chain for our idea. All of the coding of SFRX has been from scratch. Things will become interesting from this point forward. |

LOL Move along, EOS is a joke and so is TRON. |

...and quite the opposite of a "lot of shilling" EGEM almost made a "non announcement" of the recent airdrop of SFRX 2:1 to all EGEM holders because it EGEM community is tight knit since day one and it was based to reward on participation in the initial chain build. If you happen to be on tweets related to EGEM you might want to consider yourself fortunate to be following someone that at least is into real POW crypto. The entire team came from another coin project and has not advertised at all except grass roots to active participants. Case in point, an airdrop is a major marketing move for shilled coins and I don't even think a single reddit post was made in advance of the airdrop. The team came from a previous ethereum based POW project and a community that values working on this type of chain as a base, and has made significant enhancements on that open source stack that are coming out on this integrated subchain. Meanwhile the information on Twitter has been to a direct audience and in conjunction with podcasts and conference attendance or even private dev meetings with a need to reach that direct audience. Besides I think you are also overlooking the fact that there was no pre mine or ICO on this fair launch POW eth chain which is a direct improvement over those exact activities on Ethereum. All that being said, team EGEM developers (at least myself for certain as I am one of them) are extremely appreciative of the ETH codebase and philosophy and have decided to improve on that function in their own way. Initially, yes, this means only a difficulty adjustment and faster block time with a removal of the premine and presale funds, lowering the uncle reward, and a fair launch mining situation. But, secondly an extension to that base of a retrofit "quarrynode" was placed into the community to support network growth. Finally that base is being enhanced with a multi currency wallet and additional related chain (our integrated subchain sapphire) that improves the way the entire ecosystem interacts with the stable core. Sapphire is original code from the ground up that incorperates some new connection protocols for peers (based on other open source projects which will be acredited in the code) and unique approach to mining and node expansion. Sapphire is also independently mined with a dofferent algorithm than the main chain and is designed to accommodate dual mining expansion of the EGEM ecosystem in general. These activities take EGEM into its own direction and hopefully provide a new block chain open source base for thee communities to learn from and explore further enhancements to the crypto community down the road. tldr: I don't think its shilling as much as you are following someone related to the great EGEM project on twitter :-D final: hope to see you there in our discord :-D |

We only took the snapshot at this time. When the subchain is made public, first in a testnet capacity, you will be able to view your coins and use them. We will make announcements again to this regard. |

What is the total coin supply of this nice project ?, How do I add a custom token in mew to make egem visible?
is not a token, here is the wallet https://myegemwallet.comFrequently Asked Questions ▲ Q: What is the max supply of EGEM? A: After the final era which is the 7th there will be roughly 45 million EGEM in circulation, and each year following will produce 350k new coins give or take. Q: What makes you different than any other chain? A: We have implemented our own difficulty adjustment per block to keep the chain under a 13 second average, and we also use a custom block halving scheme to slowly reduce the amount of coins that get created over time. Q: Why the Name? A: Ether - a medium that in the wave theory of light permeates all space and transmits transverse waves. Gem - something prized especially for great beauty or perfection. |
If you don't believe it or don't get it, I don't have the time to try to convince you, sorry.

$EGEM $SFRX is something new. Two chains that work together in a decentralized ecosystem with a multicurrency wallet #DEX You can read more on https://egem.io/and on our Discord channel |

There is only one exchange for EtherGEM so far: https://graviex.net/markets/egembtc?I wish that the EtherGEM team will send listing request to Crypto Bridge, and bring the coin to the one and more exchanges. There was Maple-exchange, but it hacked and closed. Now we have 2 exchanges. And waiting big announce and more exchanges soon! |

Young exchanges are always too risky to use. By the way, Can I apply to get airdropped coins today? |

Well done with tradeable trading pair on STEX. However, volume (daily one) has still been low, and should be forced upwards. |

Well its been a few days now and im happy to say that our chain is now protected by PirlGuard, which is version 1.0.6 of go-egem, slowly the nodes have been updating. If you haven't updated yet just run the update for the node script and or pull the fresh source or grab one of the binaries. The other BIG news is there will be a fork at block 1,850,000 to finish enabling the NODE fund for quarrynodes and the difficulty adjustment to smooth out the network stats and some other minor gripes. ENJOY EVERYONE!
