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

Update on the rebase bounty submission

The code that was submitted somewhat works. It is capable of syncing to the chain and running a node. There are several remaining issues and questions that I'm working out with the developer, and not all of the criteria mentioned in the guidelines post are entirely addressed yet, but even at this point I feel it would qualify at a minimum for a partial bounty award.

The bounty remains open for other submissions, there may be multiple winners as described in the guidelines.

Would you mind if we asked who the developer is? Is it slb? We would appreciate it if we knew who he or she is. Thank you.

Also, how long do you reckon will it take to work out the remaining issues with the developer? Will it last for another 3 months or more?

Any developer who wants to come forward is free to do so. I'm not going to out anyone based on private messaging. Of course when there is point when actual bounty payments are going to be made then there will have to be a public claim made (though could still be pseudonymous, so I can't guarantee even then you will get names named in the manner you request), but we are some ways from that.

As far as time, I have no idea whatsoever. People work at their own pace, especially in the case of bounties where the whole idea is to incentivize independent work.

Right on. The coin has been moving at its own pace for a while now anyways. It is also good to know that the GUI wallet can be adapted from XMR since a lot of newbs are very nervous about development and ease of use. Perhaps community members should direct them to this thread when they ask. 

[stoffu]

Is there any plan to make a GUI wallet ? For many users is better that using a cmd line...

The monero GUI can be easily adapted after the rebase.

Meanwhile, Athan Clark recently developed an open-source GUI wrapper on top of today's AEON simplewallet (https://github.com/aeontransfer/aeontransfer-local/), which seems legit to me. Haven't checked the code myself, please do your own due diligence, as always.

yeah, i want to stress a little bit about what Stoffu is pointing to: it's all about a caution and safety, try to stick to the "official" releases, don't be hasty. Also, official releases are better supported in case of troubleshooting, and therefore giving a contribute and feedback yourself to the actual state of the code and features (in case of bugs for example) indirectly.

Ok, but does he or she have a Github account online for the public to check on his progress? I reckon the other teams had their Github made public for transparency and it is also something nice to follow.

As for the timeline, what can we do? Delays are always expected in small projects like Aeon hehehe.

We are a growing US based pool with multiple pool locations worldwide with new nodes coming up in the US very soon!

Pool: AEON Mining Pool (AMP)
URL: https://aeonminingpool.com/

AMP recently achieved 2000 blocks mined since our switch to the PPLNS software (1st October 2017). We are constantly making improvements to our pool code, UI as well as providing internal resources to our Slack community.

SPREAD THE HASH!

who pay for dev team there? Any kind of whale there?

I see that like small brother of Monero. Problem is small volumes (imo) rest looks quite normal. Price reflecting what I told. same pattern on price like monero just 50x smaller. Opinions?

[cameltoe66]

Hi, I am relatively new to Aeon so have much reading ahead of me but I'm impressed by its fundamentals. Does anyone know when a GUI wallet for Mac OS X will be coming out? I've picked up a few hundred coins but have them sat on Bittrex at the moment and would prefer to have them in a wallet that I control the keys of.

[smooth]

who pay for dev team there?

There is donation fund of about 450K AEON, so some level of funding, however the core team has only been volunteers so far. Bounties have been used to pay independent developers a number of times.

[AngryWhiteWolf]

It's ok for me to use the command line wallet, but for many others is not. It's simply of stopper for massive adoption of AEON.

Wait for the code rebase. When that is done, development on new features will be faster including an official GUI. Remember that Monero was in the same situation once, but their development team made sure that the core software was stable before adding anything else.

Also, if you are a speculator this is a good time to keep buying.

If you are new stick to minergate. It has a profit calculator too.

The Aeon hype is starting and I reckon, it will be a victim of high expectations and also of course, high price volatility. I cannot believe someone has already started making it appear that Aeon's development is doing very good.

There are greedy pump and dumpers in Aeon, everyone. Do not succumb to the hype. Aeon's development is still in murky waters.

This was posted in the subreddit as well. I think some people are going to get burned.

[bbc.reporter]

@boomboombazookajeff. Well that is nothing new. People always get burned by the market hehehe. I am more worried about Aeon's code rebase. I fear that none of the code submissions will pass the smooth standard, bringing us back to zero again.

is it possibile to mine it with GPU and claymore miner?

[osfera69]

is it possibile to mine it with GPU and claymore miner?

Hi, as far as I know, Claymore uses Criptonight algorithm and AEON is based in Criptolight (Criptonight Lite) so is not possible. Regarding to mine AEON with GPU, I can tell you that it is possible. I have used an old NVIDIA GTX 750 with good results.
