Anyone knows have they decided on the algorithm yet? Don't feel like going through all the blog posts/videos.

Last time I checked they were in favour of PoS, but don't know whether the decision has been made, or is the matter still open.

Last time I checked they were looking at DPoS but I've no idea if they decided to use it.

Ethereans don't talk here much. They think we're all trolls for some reason Tongue

Absolutely!! If Ethereum can't make it, I doubt anybody can!

can someone look at this ethereum serpent code and see if it does what it is supposed to do? i.e., ethereum smart contract for a powerball style lotto, and people being able to send around the tickets that are created, as well as redeem winning tickets for the prize allocation for the # of matches.

https://github.com/PeterBorah/ethereum-powerball

Sets the executor of the contract as the owner of the "powerball" that only him can start the draw or send payments
Only the winner can message the contract to claim his prize
Can transfer tickets
Has a variable price for the ticket
Has an expiration date for redemption of the prize
The random number generator uses the previous block hash to generate the 6 numbers in a pool of 60 numbers, checking if there are no duplicates (and sort
them ascending) and 1 powerball (the 6th)
Has payouts for 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 numbers
Splits the jackpot to all the winners

I haven't been following much on this after the ICO.
Has there been any new developments posted on the plan to launch the coin?

Maybe this helps :

Just came across this:

Ethereum's Vitalik Buterin Wins World Technology Network Award

Quote

Vitalik Buterin has beaten Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg to win the World Technology Network (WTN) award for IT software.

Pretty prestigious. Don't know whether this will have any impact on Ethereum, maybe it'll drive more people/attention to the project. Anyhow, well done Vitalik.

Great job Vitalik! Congrats!

For those who want to know if the Ethereum teams can keep the promise to start the main net this winter we opened a prediction market on it:

https://www.fairlay.com/predict/registered/new/ethereum-main-net-goes-live-before-spring-2015/

It is a market place where people can bet against each other. If you prediction they won't start the main net we try to find one how is willing to take the other side. Currently we have about 0.8 Bitcoin in open predictions and the likelihood is at 45%. If you think it is more likely you should predict "yes" - otherwise "no".

Will be interesting who wins in the end.
