GreenCoin is experiencing a technical issue. For a short time now the Foundation has been receiving 20 coins from one or more of the pools instead of 1000. For example here is a list of the last 20 transactions from the Foundation wallet: $./greencoind listtransactions "" 20 0

The code above indicates the coins coming into the Foundation. The amount is either "20" or "1000". Sometimes there are more "1000's" than "20's" so it probably depends on the relative strength of the pools set up correctly versus the unsub pool. Without an operating block explorer I wasn't able to determine whether the coins were being burned inadvertently. However, the evidence on Bittrex suggest strongly that one of the pools is receiving 1,980 coins and only sending 20 to the Foundation, due to programmatic-looking selling on Bittrex often being in exact multiples of 1980. The fact we get 20 coins also looks a lot like a pool donation of 2%. So the unsub pool probably has somehow set up their mining incorrectly and they keep 1980 coins that go to their miners and the 2% that was meant to go to the pool as a fee comes to us. Whether this was intentionally done or not is less important than the fact that it's possible. I alerted ncsupanda to the issue but he has not responded. I do not personally have the technical ability to fully address the issue and come up with a technical solution. If there are others who have the ability to help we do have some financing available. Please PM me. We have 1 BTC - 1.5 BTC available for this depending on the workload. Step 1 would be to fully understand the issue and then Step 2 would be to come up with the proper solution and implement it. Also it would be very helpful to have a block explorer working again I am soliciting this again for 0.15 BTC. As far as payouts have been going, the foundation has been consistently receiving about 350,000-500,000 coins so I have donated in the difference to represent a "full payout" (that is, to reach the total of ~1.4M per day). The coin is cheap enough that I can do this for now and maybe a bit longer but it is not a long term solution. The Foundation is mandated to distribute the coins it actually receives per day and so I may drop the payout down to the actual coins received if I can no longer donate in the difference. If your pool is receiving 1,980 coins instead of 1,000 per block, if you could please shut down for now or attempt to correct your pool set-up on your end I would greatly appreciate it. Obviously the code should make it impossible to defeat the compulsory shared coinbase transaction to the Foundation, so we apologize for this and are looking into solutions.My analysis: - The coin still works in the job it is trying to do as a carbon emission offset credit because the calculation is not dependent on the coin's split between the Foundation and the miners. Therefore, during the period where we are looking at solutions the coin can continue to operate as it currently does.
- This is a good time to look at all options on the table. For instance, (1) the coin could be forked with the coinbase tx code fix but also could contain any upgrades desired. (2) We could go to a PoS coin at this time and remove mining completely. The pros and cons of PoS versus PoW really need to be vetted first though. I think it matches out environmental imperative to have a coin that eliminates or minimizes PoW mining as much as possible, so eventually I think we should go in the PoS direction. Maybe given the current circumstances this is the right time to try it.
- I continue to be committed to this coin and if solutions are on the table I can raise the financing to implement them, within a reasonable amount.
