I had discovered about ProgPow algorithm change to  make harder to use ASICs to mine Ethereum.
I wonder if  it  will be any equivalent steps made by Expanse?

Yes we are working on Frankomoto, there is a bounty for anyone trying to help us.

Thanks for your answer,
I though it will be just one-to-one ProgPow changed for Expanse but it looks quite interesting - so after that Ethereum and Expanse mining algorithm will be different? Won't it hurt mining availability? now it is ease to switch from ETH to Expanse; some people has Expanse mining set as failover etc.

Why did you go with a custom algo and not another existing like progpow or ubiqhash?

Hey defaced, I was wondering whether or not you do control any exchanges? Tongue  Grin

Well, we have worked on EXPEX but the legal atmosphere around running an exchange is just absolutely insane. Thats why most exchanges are either in a country where you can buy off the regulators -cough binance malta cough- or they made enough money to pay the cost before the feds started cracking down on it. Meh.
I was joking because of your other conversation, but you know what? You come across as someone I want to talk to. I think I can learn from you. Would be up for a call?

Been looking at this project from ahead, but never had the time to actually look it up. Now seems to be a good time as any - blood on the street and all that jazz. Feel you exchange pain though. Folks like to think we've all got CZ on speeddial

CMC isnt up to us. We applied. That's pretty much all we can do. I think you can trade lab on boa exchange and graviex? Not sure. Honestly we are focused on building things.

So you dont have anything to do with the Project? Otherwise you would know where its listed i guess.
Fair enough, I just feel like people should be able to sell the stuff they got from you in exchange for our money. Might be wrong tho, after all its crypto

Im just not sure what exchange list it, there are a couple but again, not sure. I don't trade much anymore so it's not something that is actively in my mind. If you ask in our discord im sure one of the other admins can answer your question. I just don't handle listings anymore. I do higher level stuff.

Im glad youre doing something else. You sure as h*** did a pretty shit job in the listing department. Not sure if Im happy you do higher level stuff tho..

I know because people like you only care about exchange listings. I dont control exchanges. I dont want to control exchanges. I loathe exchanges. Most of them are predators and the others are just slightly less predatory.

Good call, collect money from investors and then dont give them the change to sell their shares. Great thinking man.

Yes there was a chain reorg. We arnt sure if it was intentional or accidental but either way it doesnt matter because we have added PirlGuard to help protect against reorgs.

In order to maximize the integrity of our blockchain, we have decided it is in the best interest of our network and community to employ a unique mining algorithm. We are the only Ether fork to use this algo. We are looking for a developer to help us create the GPU miner for our unique algo. If you would like to help us test the new algo then reach out via discord. The new algo is on github in the "frankomoto_with_blocklock" branch.

ALGO SUMMARY

  • On target epoch an algo switch is scheduled.
  • Light cache generation switches from Keccak to Sha512.
  • Whole DAG has to be regenerated from Light cache.
  • Mining algo changes from Keccak to Sha512.

There is 100k EXP bounty for this development.

Trading is suspended on Bittrex since March 26th. Is there something going on?

Yes we are working on a new update to help them that will prevent chain splits and reorgs.
