[ANN] Netnode [NND] Mineable New consensus Algorithm - No Premine!

[Netnodeio]

What is Netnode?

Netnode is a peer to peer, digital asset ecosystem that implements a new form of consensus. Ordered Node Consensus (ONC) allows for instantaneous transactions with a clear scalability path. Transactions are sent to each peer connected node and sent back to the genesis node in real time. Each node on the network allows for faster verifications with less peers being needed. Nodes verify payments one before another to create an irrefutable chain. Netnode (NND) is the base asset of the network with all transactions being settled in NND or its trading pairs.

Users have the ability to earn rewards by running a node that acts as a transaction network server. Due to nodes only verifying transactions as they come, electricity consumption is extremely low at 7W/Kwh based on SBC hardware. Nodes earn a set reward for how much time they are interacting with the network. Each node earns 0.25 NND/600 seconds. As the network scales so does the reward, with a halving every 1,000,000,000 coins distributed. There will only ever be 10,000,000,000 NND with no presale or pre-mine, meaning 100% of coins go to users of the network.

The network scales with the number of nodes connected with each user receiving a set reward for verifying transactions. With users receiving a set reward this removes the random aspect from Proof of Work algorithms. This removes the need for pool mining which allows for even further decentralization.

Ordered Node Consensus provides superior network safety with zero chance for compromise through 51% attacks or close peer attacks. Nodes will have a built in trust factor. The higher the nodes trust factor, the less peers that need to be connected, the faster transactions are verified. This allows for a transaction to be settled in real time with verification happening almost instantaneously. Merchants can run their own nodes and verify customer purchases with no chargebacks and easy refunds all while earning NND.

Due to Netnodes distribution method it will have one of the most stable market capitalizations of any new coin with price being directly correlated to number of users and nodes. All new coins will be created through nodes participating on the network. As the number of nodes scales so will the amount of coins distributed during the 600 second reward periods. The value of NND will be better tied to the underlying asset (the network) using this method.

Is this just another custom algo + masternode combo or I'm missing something?

Is this just another custom algo + masternode combo or I'm missing something?

It is entirely unique, mining is somewhat derived from "masternodes" though. A node on the network is simply a device that is verifying the transactions. Rewards are constant to incentivize users who are worried about electricity, difficulty, etc.
So a similar reward mechanism however nodes are the only way to mine with there being no bond or staking like in other custom algos. ONC works in a similar way to a mesh network.  Hope this helps and thanks for your interest!

Code:

600 second node reward time
0.25NND rewarded per node every period

What is this?
10 mins for one block with only 0.25 NND per block. Did it what the team wanted expressing in the OP?
Did I understand the message right?

There is no block time with Netnode, 600 seconds (10 minutes) reward time was used out of user familiarity. Each Nodes rewards are 100% independent from each other with earning 0.25NND for every 600 seconds they are actively on the network and verifying transactions. Transactions are layered based on their genesis call and their settlement. Thanks for your interest!

Very interesting.

Could this not be gamed, with miners renting vast amounts of micro server instances to serve as nodes that farm the network?

Could an IOT botnet with a hundred thousand nodes not mine out the entire coin supply very quickly?

I suppose it depends on how much CPU/RAM intensive it is to run the node. Will the resource requirements grow as the number of nodes grow?

In theory, yes. However not very much so in reality. On launch nodes will be whitelisted through the protocol using device IDs translated into a hash that sticks with that node. Netnode is also considering distributing the initial launch nodes to a certain amount to combat a rocky start. Netnode will not limit a number of nodes a user can run but it would nearly be impossible for a person to set up that many nodes without greatly impacting the value of any underlying asset.

Due to the unique reward system and it's halving mechanism, a "malicious" actor trying to game the system would have a difficult time. If they can get around the whitelisting mechanism they would still have to be worried about the value of NND and the trust factor of their nodes to make any sort of impact.

If you would like to discuss the project in more of a conversation environment, we are very active on telegram. Thanks for the great question!

Node resources will remain relatively steady if not decrease since nodes will probably grow at an equal rate to that of users making transactions. Even if there is an increase it will not be noticeable on the user end or affect your rewards in any way.

Zero fee? Are you sure, how can it be like that? I hope you can provide updates as soon as possible, is the whitepaper available?

If you think of the emission rate as a fee schedule then it makes it easier to understand why incentivizing the network in the right way can eliminate traditional fees. We understand that it is completely unique and maybe even odd but we are 100% confident in our model.

We have big things planned for the year end and Q1 2019. An introductory whitepaper is available on our website but it is rather surface level to appeal to a larger crowd, all feedback is appreciated. Thanks for taking the time to look at our project!

seems some unique idea. watching with keen interest.

When correct the link to your site. I wanted to get acquainted with your project, your team. Without the normal provision of information, the project will not succeed.

The first link is the website, I just changed the link name so it doesn’t look like the project title. Our website is https://netnode.io
Thanks for your interest!

[Netnodeio]

Sounds neat, hopefully nodes can be ran on raspberry pi and similar machines to keep these easy to deploy. X86 would be fine but I'm sure you would have more nodes via arm.

Nodes will definitely be able to run on Raspberry Pi. Mining NND will arguably be the most simplistic coin to mine once released. Thanks for the comment!

[Netnodeio]

Apologies everyone! the link for telegram has now been fixed to display the group instead of the channel. Thanks.

why no updates post Dec?

We are still planning on a full release in the first part of Q1, so very soon.
We will also be updating the announcement with more information. More information is also available on our website.
If you would like to know more specifics feel free to ask questions in the Telegram or through a PM.

Thanks for your interest in the project!

Missed the point.It turns out that the coins are not needed or what?I'm talking about node.
Or need?I've never seen anything so ask-we will follow the development.

Missed the point.It turns out that the coins are not needed or what?I'm talking about node.
Or need?I've never seen anything so ask-we will follow the development.

The coins are used as a high liquidity base "currency" for the network. After all coins are mined a burn rate will take effect although that will not be for a long time. The NND coin is also used to support those who operate nodes. Relatively speaking there could be a high emission rate with a high number of nodes on the network. This incentivizes the network to scale alongside transactions.
