It's not 50GB. It's about 7GB.

Yes thank you, can finally move off Bittrex!!

Damn, 50GB blockchain to download on my shitty 7Mbit connection....I'll check back in 2 weeks.

@AdamT. There was an unofficial GUI before the code rebase which some people have gotten to work in Windows. But now I am not sure if there is a new one, but I heard there is one that was forked from Monero's GUI.

Also try asking in Aeon's Reddit page. They might know the answer. Aeoners in bitcointalk are isolated beings hehehe.

Is there a GUI wallet for this coin yet? Or a way to hold Aeon that doesn't require a terminal window?

AEON is not money electronically free investment with the fund quite raised millions of dollars, you can tell me more is that we invest in, the percentage that investors receive profits since it is how much?

Hey all,

I've setup a new mining pool and am looking for some others to contribute some of their hash rate. So far the pool has mined one block and payouts and other functionality seems to be working great.

Thanks

@galgoczi. It would be best for you if you do not use HitBTC. I have already heard many complaints specifically from the Monero community. They have marked that exchange as off limits from the last time I saw their reddit side panel.

IMHO no reason linked to the coin, but reason should be linked to this exchange alone.

Hi ! Anyone know why HitBtc does not let AEON move. Support does not respond. There is a main acunt AEON. I can not get it out. Or sell it.

Bounty on reddit for a funding system and other projects afterwards.

The more that participate to get this bounty program moving, the better!

Agreed but the investment that Asic manufacturers bring to a cryptocoin's mining infrastructure might translate to longterm value, not only in the price but also in the project itself.

Also, it might be more advantageous to welcome them now than to release hardforks after hardforks to change algorithms that might cut hashrate and nodes supply.

I agree with this point. Cryptnight with ASICs is a stupid combination.

@bbc.reporter

I honestly don't follow the logic that ASICs would result in a higher price. There are not-silly arguments in favor or against ASICs but to expect it to make a 5x difference in price doesn't seem to follow either way from my perspective. You can never fully guess what a market will do but I would more likely see any price difference as marginal. I also find it a somewhat extraordinary claim to expect AEON not to decline a lot in value from crypto-market highs when nearly every other coin has declined a lot in value.


Mostly agree, although I would say that both dimensions matter. If horizontal axis is hash rate and vertical axis is participants (or perhaps some sort of measure that combines participant count and inverse gini of hash rate), then more secure is diagonal up to the right.

As far as hash rate meaning greater security, you really also have to adjust for algorithm/technology in terms of hash per watt. Monero is not less secure than some $100K market cap SHA256 coin even though the latter may have higher hash rate. IIRC one S9 has a higher hash rate than the entire Monero network. It is silly that being mined by one S9 would be considered a secure network, it is anything but.

A coin is more secure if *many participants* put a lot of hash power into the network. High hashrate of any particular algorithm doesn't mean high security if the network hash power is dominated by a small group of people such as ASIC manufactures.

@jwinterm. But allowing Asics was never in the roadmap of any cryptocoin, or was not something that was planned. It would also be stupid to change the algorithm to make it easier for Asic manufacturers. In Aeon's situation, it might have been better not have have hardforked to another mining algorithm.

When the community voted for a hardfork to kill the Asics, it cut its supply of hashrate and made the coin more insecure. I reckon it was a shortsighted move.

Well, if you're going to "allow" ASICs on the network, then you might as well go with an algorithm that is very fast to verify on low end consumer hardware. Aeon pitches itself as mobile friendly - if you want to run a full validating from a mobile device would you rather verify blocks with sha256 or cryptonight? Aeon isn't quite as bad as Monero with the lite variant, but it's still not exactly a mobile friendly solution. It's not about ASIC proficiency, but once you decide to let ASICs on the network you might as well make it as easy as possible for other users to run a full validating node, which cryptonight is not ideal imo.

@jwinterm. I do not understand. What would the difference be if Bitmain makes an Asic for a cryptocoin that is slow to verify using lowend CPUs and a for a cryptocoin that verifies quickly using the same CPU? How would more Asic proficiency differ between the 2?

I'm not smooth, but embracing ASICs for cryptonight seems stupid, imo. Cryptonight is very slow to verify using a low-end CPU. If you're going to go to ASIC PoW, you might as well go to one that can be quickly verified using all consumer hardware.

@smooth. I would really like to listen to your personal thoughts in this subject matter if it is ok hehehe. I know I might appear to be speaking from greed that Aeon might have already reached $5 if Asics were welcomed with open arms. But I know it would not only be me who would like to see that occur. All of us do.
