What is LEOcoin?
Technical information about LEOcoin
LEOcoin (LEO) is a peer-to-peer digital currency and open source software project. LEOcoin creation and transfer is based on an open source protocol and is not managed by any central authority.
LEOcoin in 2014 started as an altered version of Litecoin and for two years used scrypt-Jane as a proof-of-work (POW) and proof-of-stake (POS) algorithm with a modified nFactor. In July 2016 LEOcoin switched to a sole proof-of-stake procedure. Under PoS users are asked to prove ownership of a certain stack of LEOcoins. This makes the LEOcoin network more secure and over time creates new LEOcoin without consuming large amounts of energy.
In the summer of 2017 LEOcoin moved to a technically improved chain. The LEOcoin blockchain uses the X11 hashing algorithm and Proof-of-Stake (PoS) as a coin creation mechanism. Further specifications:
• Total coinage: 1 billion coin cap.
• Ticker: LEO
• Block time: 1 minute
• Difficulty retarget 15 blocks
• Stake Interest: 10-20%
