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

[Nik4691]

Haven't mined any Aeon since mining algorithm changed sine there was no miner to use for Amd cards at the time .Is there anything that works with Amd card's yet for mining Aeon  I have four rigs  each one is loaded with four AMD 390x's

Yes there is. I was surprised to find just now that the links to the modified miner never got added to the OP. If someone can repost them I will add to the OP for easy reference.

Arux compiled one for Windows, but i can't find it now.
The name was aeon_gpu_miner_1f45234.zip

my windows binaries for amd gpu are here: https://github.com/Arux-BTT/wolf-aeon-miner/releases
they are cloned from Wolf's OpenCL AEON Miner then latest commits from wolf-xmr-miner were added ("substantial_performance_increase" branch)

http://52.8.47.33:8080/#getting_started can also be useful for cpuminer windows binaries.

Thanks Arux, if this was "for testing" I can confirm that it works just fine, it needs almost 0% CPU usage unlike the previous one, which consumes about one core of my 8core AMD.
Strange thing is, that there is not a xmr-miner (not aeon_gpu_miner) of this edition compiled for windows. Or there it is?

After reading a lot of Smooth's info over as many months and seeing how he operates, I've decided to throw in with AEON.

And I'd like to report that the transfer speed from Bittrex to my simplewallet was the fastest transfer I've ever experienced, aside from Ripple -- which isn't really a crypto in my book.

It took maybe a second. I'm serious as soon as I hit the enter key it was there.

Great Work AEON.

Well you mostly got lucky on the transfer. The block time is 4 minutes which makes it faster than BTC but not a transaction speed star.

One of the things I've been thinking about is fast transactions and I have some interesting ideas that seem implementable, so that may improve but I can't promise anything right now.

Anyway, welcome to AEON, happy to answer any questions.

When Aeon will be on Poloniex??

I seem to recall that someone had trouble removing their coins from Poly awhile back, but someone helped him/her out. I think it was Smooth who helped. But I could be mistaken.

In any case, this would seem to imply that AEON was on Poly before?

And...I just texted "Chickenliver" (a mod) in the Poloniex Trollbox and was advised that AEON was 'delisted' from there.

Whatever the reason, I've never seen such speed. The transfer just before that; however, was about at the 4 minute mark.

And I've noted that some have brought up the idea of advertising and so on, but your routine posts are great stuff -- and to me anyway -- great advertising.

The old saying..."If you build it, they will come," seems appropriate.

I think that is one of your strengths -- your posts. Reminds me a bit of the 'underdog.'

By comparison, crypto's like BCN offer highbrow blogs, slow wallets and no spunk.

Monero is good, but slow with that extraneous data carried forever in the blockchain as I think you mentioned. Thus your pruning concepts, that the Boolberry Dev's thought about implementing? seem to help.

And I read the ShadowCash 'debate.' Interesting material. That's how I wound up here. I was looking at the map of coins site and saw AEON - Monero relationship...and that you were the Dev. Dude!

Have a good one.

It was. When the original dev abandoned it and interest dried up before I took his place, they deactivated it. They still have the wallet and could reactivate it, but they seem to be in a phase where they aren't adding many coins. Still having been there before and that they already have a wallet may help.

Cryptopia now listed on coinmarketcap.com.

I wonder if it was the request I filed?

Mr Smooth certainly knows his stuff and I hold a few aeon myself

[rickgejr]

How many "monetary units" will there be, approximately, when AEON reaches peak mining production?

I realize that there will be a "Max supply: ~18.4 million" and "Proposed: minimum maintenance reward of <1%/year for mining incentive starting after approximately 8 years."

I'm looking for the total number of all SATS so to speak.

Any great mathematicians out there?

Or can someone point me to the answer if it is already floating in the cloud?

I think the base unit is the same as Monero, 1e-12. So max supply before perpetual inflation would be 18.4e18 sats, so to speak.

Yes that is right

[rickgejr]

For the layman.

18.4e18 is approximately: 58,441,427,315,751,480,000,000 correct?

Sextillion - in American right?

I'm trying to visualize and compare -- wrap my head around it.

No. 18.4e18 = 18.4*10^18 = 18,400,000,000,000,000,000

[rickgejr]

So the total individual units (values) are 18,400,000,000,000,000,000 or 1.84E19.

Okay.

So the number is a function of the 64 bit integer system? The upper limit of it, so to speak?

Yes that's right. All of the cryptonote coins, regardless of their coin supplies, use the same 64 bit integers to represent "atomic units" internally. The various differences all have to do with how those units are represented in terms of moving the decimal point and so forth.
