Yes, challenge accepted.

After listening to the advice of the community and looking into it technically, it does appear possible to swap out the algorithm. We will be going with keccak.

This change will take some time and require a hard fork. Please stop your miners as there will be a hard fork at block 48750. This is subject to change and I will keep everyone posted. For now, please close your wallets as there will be a new version available at relaunch. As always, please be sure to backup your wallets. During this time the game will also be offline (no payouts) but still playable.

The tentative re-release of the coin will be next Saturday, 4/5/14 provided all goes well. I will post progress updates throughout the week.

While this change is being made, it would be great if you could contact pools, exchanges, and someone to host a blockchain explorer. This would be a great help as I'll be busy coding and testing. If you have any other input on this change, please contact me directly through PM.

Your chance to win!

I wanted to remind everyone that in less than FIVE HOURS we will have our fifth drawing, this means we will be adding two more coins to our exchange!
The good news is that you don't need to be at the top of the list for a chance to win, all you need is a minium of 100 votes (more is better, of course Cheesy

) and you will be entered into the random drawing which will be streamed live.

If we can hard fork, the algorithm swapped out and the blockchain maintained, that would be pretty cool. Let me look into it this weekend to see how doable it is.

Definitly good idea.

Rebranding ENC as Keccak's coin

The point is we're able make it hapeened. I guess we ought to do this. Obviously we can raise due to rebranding ENC(new members etc.), so in my opinion it's worth the effort.

Dev, challenge accpeted?

What are the options about the payouts? Could you shortly explain possible solutions?

Due to the fact this coin doesn't have a market presence you would be hard strapped to find anyone to give you btc or anything for these coins as they currently don't have a market value. As a result, since it has no value you can't get a "payout"

You don't have to relaunch anything. Just implement a hardfork upcoming in the chain which would implement a new algorithm or new feature at a specific block. Don't change anything about the blocks or total coins, just hard fork to implement scrpyt-n or something.

I'm not completely against that but it leaves the question of relaunching and what to do with payouts to this point? What is everyone's thoughts on that?

Exactly, more advanced algorithm will gain people's trust.

If you want this coin to go anywhere we need to stand out.

I would recommend switching to X-11 or another more advanced algorithm which would really make your coin stand out. X11 seems to be one of the trending algorithms right now. Without something to diversify this coin it will get lost in the mix with all the other shitty scrypt coins.

Dev please consider following:
1. Change algorithm from scrypt to for example keccak
2. Relaunch with new algorithm and nice HTML5 game
3. Coin will be noticed by a larger group
4. ? ? ?
5. Profit!

When coin will get into an exchange, thanks to keccak it will become multipool resistant (and ASIC-resistant)
I am aware that this plan require a lot of work, but it's only a suggestion.
