Any chances of having SHA256 or Scrypt mining algorithm? I don't do GPU/CPU at all

I Think many have the same problem, a better known hashrate will make a bigger mining hash , but also better spreading.

Im simply not going to own the coin cause when a new algo comes out mostly people of the community will instamine or , mine it like crazy.
and the coin will be pumped/ dumped

PoW isn't for a set period, it is indefinite.

Also bear in mind we are tuning Argon2d and also releasing miners for NVidia and ATi.

Bigger mining hash will give added security to coin network and higher the pool hash lower the coin mining profitability. I think every miner should be given chance to mine; shouldn't matter what algorithm.

Most people just dont mine gpu anymore cause its cost a lot of power compared to many software , also i understand pow isnt a set period,
but the diff increase after a while.

Will the mining software be launched before the mining start so miners can jump in from second 1 ?

A new algo will mean many people cant mine it mostly so actually not everyone get the chance

They cant even rent miners or something, many people sold there miners after most coin diff got too high and wont invest again to
buy gpu's to invest in a new coin.

We wouldn't launch without all the necessary software.

Please read the thread.

Sorry no.

Argon2d will be the PoW mining algorithm and Blake2B will be the PoS algorithm.

good selections!
how did you end up to those?

waiting to see gpu vs cpu results..

Well we wanted an algo that eliminates botnet mining via CPU, a strong hash for PoW as this is also used for the Stormnode quorums, also an algo that over time can have ASICs developed for it.

New Silkcoin folder updated for quick sync
copy it to your user\appdata\Silkcoin folder
if you get no coins in your wallet do as Crypt0Keeper did: start the wallet with the -rescan switch

Good syncing

I spent today with the graphic designer working on the splash screens for both DarkSilk and Silk. Because I wanted to make a few final changes to DarkSilk, Silk won't be finished until tomorrow.

DarkSilk final splashscreen:

Looks really nice!

I recommended them to him.

really? you are one of the bests!!!

New splash screen is sickness! Really nice

So just out  of curiousity has the swap occurred already?

not yet, we have to wait to launch

Okay thanks I've just been on holidays so wanted to see what was going on since I wasn't around for a while lol

Good news for us, bad news for all the other coins that use Masternodes and PoS.

Basically, ALL the coins that have Masternodes and PoS and utilise the PoS hash to secure the Masternodes can be exploited if the user has a high stake.

Whereas ourselves will not suffer from this affliction

This includes coins such as Crave, BTX, Sling, Transfercoin and many many others.

What coin is that then?
