[ANN] AEON: Scalable, private, mobile-friendly cryptocurrency

[sammy007]

I've already seen some similar ICO, why are you different?

This has nothing to do with any ICO whatsoever.  There's no way to correlate the two by any stretch of the imagination if you had read the first post, let alone the rest of the thread.  Are you a bot or are you drunk?

This retard prolly bought scam ICO called electroneum.

Does anyone know if it's a problem pointing my solo mining stratum server (sammy007) to a public node? I'm running some pretty big hashrate...

I don't think the stratum server will bring any significant load to the public node, because the stratum only needs to fetch a block template every time the public node receives a new block from the network (which happens every 4 minutes on average). The load for processing lots of shares your miners produce will be put on the stratum server which you run at your own cost.

[sammy007]

Owner of the public node can fuck you over and replace rpc param with your address so you will mine for owner, not for yourself. If you got enough resources for solo mining you must dedicate some hardware to run your own full node. If you can't afford it you don't have to solo mine.

I was overlooking that aspect, thanks for pointing it out. Yes, it makes no sense to rely on someone else's daemon when one has resources dedicated to solo mining.

I don't know much about the actual implementation of the stratum pool, but in theory it should be possible to check if the coinbase tx in the block template provided by the daemon owner is really destined to the intended wallet address by doing the CryptoNote key derivation using the view key against the coinbase output. I suppose such a checking (which is an additional computational cost) isn't done by the stratum pool (as it doesn't know the view key), though.

But again, the node owner could make a block solved by a remote stratum solo miner invalid by corrupting the block template in various ways (e.g. by providing a wrong prev block hash) which does a favor to the node owner by excluding one participant from the mining competition. Anyway, the conclusion is to use your own node when solo mining using the proxy stratum.

Hello. Need help sammy007.
I have no way to run a proxy under Linux. sammy007 or can someone help to compile the Proxy (for solo mining with GPU-miners and/or multiple computers)
- https://github.com/sammy007/monero-stratum/tree/aeon) under Windows. Thank you.

I don't know how to compile it under windows.

Thank you, I appreciated the joke, I will work on Linux

@smooth. Samsung has started building mining rigs using old Galaxy S5 cellphones and they have reportedly claimed that their rig is more energy efficient compared to a regular desktop PC.

Maybe this is something that Aeon can take advantage from.



The mining rig was unveiled during a recent Samsung developer conference held in San Francisco. The rig is the brainchild of Samsung’s Creative Lab – an internal hub for innovation and development within Samsung that is located at the Samsung Digital City in Korea.

Aside from the cryptocurrency mining rig, Samsung program has also seen an old Galaxy table turned into an ubuntu-powered laptop, and a Galaxy S3 smartphone repurposed to monitor a fishtank. The company has also utilized an old phone featuring facial recognition software as the basis for the home security system.

The company has pledged to make plans for the showcased projects freely available online, in addition to the software that allowed Samsung’s Creative Lab to unlock and repurpose old phones. Samsung spokesperson, Robin Schultz, told motherboard that the “innovative platform provides an environmentally responsible way for old Galaxy mobile devices to breathe new life, providing new possibilities and potential extended value for devices that might otherwise be forgotten in desk drawers or discarded.”

@bbc.reporter That is interesting. I briefly clicked around and went to the conference page but I couldn't easily find any more information about the mining rig or the group behind it. Mining AEON would likely be very efficient (if not necessarily fast) on recycled surplus phones. Mining Bitcoin (as the article stated, possibly incorrectly) would obviously not be. If we can find a direct contact with someone at Samsung who is involved with their project, maybe they aren't aware of AEON and greatly improving the efficiency of their mining would be an opportunity to attract some attention here.

[bbc.reporter]

@smooth. Samsung has an upcycling site hosted in Github https://galaxyupcycling.github.io/

But there are no repositories for any open source code and it did not say when their miner will be available to everyone. If you want to contact them, you can do it by email galaxyup@samsung.com

I would like to contact them myself out of excitement but I would not know what to tell them. It might be better if you do it since you represent Aeon officially.

I think you need some graphic designers   

AEON is an opensource project, so I'm sure if any graphics designers wanted to donate some time they could talk to Smooth about it. Fresh marketing material, if good quality, is always useful.

I've already reported it as a spam on Reddit. Most Aeon supporters aren't that stupid to fall for such an easy con.
