[ANN] [KVA] Keva - Cryptocurrency with Key-Value Data Store

[calmstorm]

I`m a bit confused now after  read your mining  guide ..
Should not then my address start with prefix V?
So why I have  with T ?

For the testnet, the address starts with "T". The prefix "V" is for the mainnet. It is not clear from the guide, sorry for the confusion.

How to mine solo?

[calmstorm]

How to mine solo?

You can refer to this tutorial:
https://kevacoin.org/tutorial_solo_mining.html

In summary, you will need three pieces of software:

1. The Kevacoin Core/Wallet itself.
2. The proxy/stratum server for solo-mining.
     - We have a reference implementation: https://github.com/kevacoin-project/keva-stratum
     - It is easy to build on Linux. There is a pre-built binary for Windows 10: https://github.com/kevacoin-project/keva-stratum/releases
3. A miner that supports Cryptonight-R, such as:
     - XMRig AMD: https://github.com/xmrig/xmrig-amd
     - XMRig Nvidia: https://github.com/xmrig/xmrig-nvidia

If you have any questions about the solo-mining tutorial, please feel free to let me know.

OK. Kevacoin will be officially launched on Thursday, January 16, 2020, at 03:00GMT!

The source code for mainnet will be released about 6 - 12 hours before the mainnet launch. This is to prevent pre-mining as much as possible and give people enough time to get ready before the launch. We will post a notice here when the mainnet source code is ready.

Kevacoin uses the standard Cryptonight R (variant 4) hash algorithm. So anyone can use NiceHash to mine the coins for their benefit, just like any other PoW coins. We will let the coin economy play out

Thanks for the reminder. We will produce one soon. The mainnet will be launched on Thursday, Jan. 16, 03:00GMT. The genesis block will give 0.00001 Kevacoin (KVA) to the core developers (the standard block reward is 500KVA for the first 4 years)  

Kevacoin is unique in that a block can be part of the database storage. We need to find a way to present the key-value relationship in an intuitive and logical way.

Hello! Interesting project, I will keep an eye on it.
Regarding the OP I like it simple like it is, maybe you can put your logo and name on top and that's it.
As for Discord I must agree with @Javi_Anibarro. In the space, Discord is a must. Gitter is unknown, at least to me (first time hearing of it to my shame).
