Multi-Algorithm
Merged Mining
Fair Distribution

Required Update - 0.9.3.1

• Version 0.9.3.1 has been released, source + windows binaries up on Github now (https://github.com/unitusdev/unitus/releases/latest).
• This update fixes a bug in the block weight calculation algorithm, and has been derived from changes in Myriad released today by /u/8bitcoder (See http://redd.it/2rycha).
• New algorithm kicks in at block 25300 - in approx. 7 days - please update before then.

About

Unitus = United

1. Joined into a single entity.
2. Involving the joint activity of multiple agents.

Unitus is about bringing together smaller crypto-currencies and the communities that support them into a larger group capable of greater change, influence and innovation, whilst allowing each to maintain their own unique identities.

Every aspect of this project will be driven by the community, for the community.

Specifications

- Modern Wallet - Forked from Bitcoin Core 0.9.3, with significant influence from Myriadcoin (Multi-Algorithm) and Dogecoin (Merge-Mining)

- Multi-Algorithm:

• Blake256 (8-round)
• Skein
• Qubit
• X11
• Yescrypt

- All algorithms can be merge-mined (AuxPoW)

- Each algorithm will have a 5 minute block time, resulting in a 1 minute block time for the whole network

- Fair Distribution:

• No Premine / IPO / ICO / Developer Donation. Just pure reward
• First 2,000 blocks increase from 1 UIS to 100 UIS (approx. 33 Hours)
• Every 7 days / 10,080 blocks thereafter the reward decays by 1% (compound)
• Decay continues until we reach 2 UIS (approx. June 2022, block 3,933,199) - and then this remains static for each block thereafter
• Mined blocks mature after 180 confirmations
• No free transactions - minimum fee is 0.01 UIS

- Peer-to-Peer Port: 50603
- RPC Port: 50604

I'm in for an X11 non-merged pool Might bring a merged one later on though!

[WigitGetIt]

Like the Yescrypt Algorithm addition.

[Nthused]

This looks very promising with the following Algorithms:

- Multi-Algorithm:

Blake256 (8-round)
Skein
Qubit
X11
Yescrypt

Merged mining as well let's just hope that it all goes to plan.

This is something different, it might as well be a late Christmas present

Glad you enjoy it. nzsquirrell should be in contact with you on the subreddit about this.

Okay Cool.

"oh no"
Now I'll have to make X11 LOL

What you mean Maxxy? An X11 optimized miner?

[Arsenay]

interesting list of algorithms

interesting list of algorithms

/u/nzsquirrell on reddit (the dev) had this to say regarding the choices:

I believe that includes some large existing networks (Blake & X11) for purposes of security, it gives incentive for MYR and similar, and also provides a (currently via Yescrypt) CPU only option.

Yescrypt hot for cpu mining

Only joking. Some people would get pissed and I don't like long chains much.

[Shadow_Runner]

Algo must be choosen in conf file?

[TakeItEasy]

What miner should we used ? SGminer or there will be a new special miner ?

We'll have a list of the working mining software before launch, but if you've mined any of these algorithms before you can just use that software like normal.

Myriad squad Unite! 

[soundwallet]

I dont see anything new in this coin

Myriad squad Unite! 

Reporting for duty with rigs and p2pool nodes at the ready for launch

Exciting times!

I think minerpools is gonna be in with us.  They are great supporters of BSTY so Yescrypt is known algo to them.

Edit: altpooler on bitcointalk knows the Yescrypt algo for mining pools.  also noncepool.com.  So if you have questions about the Yescrypt algo, they are good references.
