So my next question to the community is this.

DarkSilk mining algo.

I don't want opinions or suggestions.

Just answer back with one of the below options.

• CPU only
• Scrypt
• SHA256

Thank you

SHA256 is good but WAY too hard to launch without someone forking it immediately. I would argue that CPU or Scrypt is prob best outside of the more excotic x11, keccac etc.

A custom CPU algo can be made

However for mobile applications either SHA256 or Scrypt are good because of header sizes and apps already existing that can be more easily forked.

(On a side note the white paper is starting to look sexy)

dont under estimate the big group of potential sha miners.
lot of useless hardwares left from btc..

If you would like suggestions, I personally like any GPU mineable algo that is ASIC resistant (not SHA256/SCRYPT). Usually leads to more decentralization (somewhat) and is less botnet-friendly (Most CPU algos are very botnet profitable).

Also very true.

I believe Scrypt-N may be an option isn't that GPU friendly, ASIC resistant and not friendly to botnets?

Only worked with SHA, Scrypt, X11 and X13 personally.

Thats not really a problem though. The big issue is instamining or forks and Scrypt-N, x11 work well for staving off that. A few months down ASIC resistance isn't that important since diff will have adjusted already.

Also: EHSminer are prob not delivering anyway. They are already over a year late.

Sorry got distracted, Word, white paper work again lol

OK in terms of mobile apps X11 could be a good option.

Not to mention the graphic designer is here and we are both brainstorming ideas of each other

Whitepaper is at 15 pages and I still haven't added Weavers section nor have I written up the decentralised marketplace section either :/

Whirlpool X.

Might be more work though.

Looks good. Thanks for your help, Empinel!

The silk team grows stronger every day

[SLievensDRKSLK]

Finished proofing what I have written so far.

Just need to add in one more section to DarkSilk and get the entire Weaver section written up.

Then it will be informative images and then proof reading again.

[SLievensDRKSLK]

These are the next three I have shortlisted from the graphic designers second, or is it third round of work?

This is what I said:

"So keep the font from the DarkSilk logo, Weaver is OK, Silk needs the text to be smaller and match the DarkSilk font and the DarkSilk logo needs to match the Silk one in design, but with a purple outline. Not too keen about the beak on the bird for Silk, maybe drop the coloured beak and keep it just as an outline."

Awaiting the results

[SLievensDRKSLK]

Results:

[SLievensDRKSLK]

Gonna ask the graphic designer to change the purple to this and slightly thin the colour outlines on both:



See what it looks like

Results:

Perfection.

I have now asked the designer to make the scorpion do the same as the silk logo, have the scorpion slightly pushing out of the black background.

Awaiting the changes...
