[ANN] ARBO - Arbochain - Green Eco-friendly Blockchain

[arboshidev]

Introduction

Arbo is the esperanto word for Tree. ArboChain is a blockchain implementation based on cryptonote technology, the same used by Monero, Aeon and Bytecoin.
The code has been forked from Ombre (Sumokoin), refactored and cleaned.

Arbo is designed to provide security and privacy while being, like no other project, environmentally aware of the carbon footprint created by the Proof of Work.

From the technical point of view Arbo implements Ring Confidential Transactions (RingCT) for protecting the privacy of the users. ArboChain is fungible, this means that Arbos are fully interchangeable. The development team is active in order to keep ArboChain in line with the technical evolution.

But...what’s new?

ArboChain has a basic mechanism for compensating the CO2 emissions of the mining operations. For each block mined, 3% of the reward is redirected to an ad-hoc wallet and then used for green projects (eg. planting trees, lending money for agricultural projects).
The 1% premined wallet will fund server/hosting cost and cryptocurrency research, in a transparent and accountable way.

Arbo is not only a blockchain implementation, it is a project! Behind ArboChain there will be a non-profit organization, that will be devoted to support green projects and cryptography research.

please fix

Thanks. Should be fixed in the next release. Doesn't stop you from mining though 

[arboshidev]

discord?

Will be set up soon and announcment updated as well with some additional details.

Nice coin supply number Jackpot?

One of japanese lucky numbers, beside 8. But I like the way you are thinking.

[israelps]

Do you have bounty translation? Interested in Spanish translation.

[avahad]

what's difference this one with sumokoin ?

We'll get in touch with you for the translation when the documents are ready. Thanks!

[arboshidev]

what's difference this one with sumokoin ?

The aims of the two projects are completely different - please have a look at our website for more info.
 
If you are asking about the technical differences, we are using the same technology (cryptonote) as sumo and other monero derivates/forks, but some of the differences are that we use crypthonight heavy algorithm. We premined 1% (sumokoin premined 10%), we have a smaller total supply.

If you need more info, just ask.

if the technical same as other cryptonote but you choice heavy for algo, So this coin will be support GPU miners ?
ok,i will mine this coin after there is already has pool..

for now it seems good, launching the project only can be mine using CPU.
but its better if has cli wallet for windows for gain more users.

We are working on it! It will be soon available

Windows executables are now ready and can be downloaded from the website for CPU mining on Windows.

on the website i can t reach the Pools page.
Btw nice idea, but i want to know more about green projects

EDIT:

Error: wallet failed to connect to deamon: http://localhost:19544. Daemon either is not started or wrong port was passed. Please make sure daemon is running or restart the wallet with the correct daemon address.

Hello, the official pool is not yet out.

You can mine in the wallet via "start_mining"

But first, launch the daemon arbochaind.exe and synchronize.

according to your statement :

Code:

For each block mined, 3% of the reward is redirected to an ad-hoc wallet and then used for green projects 
(eg. planting trees, lending money for agricultural projects).

Just asking, those "ad-hoc wallet" will be transparent also or not? and do you have plan to whom those reward will be deliver?

The wallet will be tranparent, but there are some steps to happen before. We need the blockchain explorer, and we'll publish the address and viewkey then. For te green projects we'll have to have ARBO listed on some of the exchanges. The short term plans are to facilitate startups like "treedom" to plant trees or similar projects like lending funds via Kiva. In the long term it will be managed by the Arbo foundation.

how to start mining with gui?

[vozphongtom]

i will wait Windows GUI Wallet  to easy use , i hope dev will release it soon .

[avahad]

how to start mining with gui?

as far i know solo mine for cryptonote algo not required gui wallet just needed deamon and cli..
gui or paperwaller just needed if has a pool

Indeed!

In windows:
1)Launch arbochaind, wait for sync, keep it open
2)Launch the arbo-wallet-cli, follow instructions for creating a new one (in case) or open an existing one.
3)Type "start_mining" in the wallet windows and enjoy mining.
