Hey all, nice to see old Meow is back! Transfer from old kitteh wallet to lynx wallet is working without problems with copy-paste wallet.bat file. Thanks to devs for bringing this old coin back 

This pool would like to support Lynx coins projects. Add them to the list on the first page:

http://pool.luckyaltcoin.com/

Thank you for the info. That's definitely good to know about this project, I just was confused the name with a completely different company.

still hoping to get updates here 

FRK, MAX, FLT and other shitcoins. Hopefully good times will come and will dump them on someone.

At the official homepage of Lynx Ben, who is the development leader of this rebranded coin, wrote: " It’s also our way of paying homage to the text-only web browser (Lynx) we used back in college in 1994."

It means, Lynx browser is one of the first internet browsers (1992), and is still in development!!!

Btw, zoologists consider lynx as the biggest cat who can meow.

So, this coins will continue where its predecessor stopped.

Isn't there also a car company similar to Uber that is called Lynx? Why do you call your project Lynx, what is the idea?

just out of interest what is  'hodling shit'

are you serious?

projects and innovations that are very helpful in the world of health. make it easy for us all to know the condition of our body. the tool was so modern and elegant. hopefully with this project we will all be more concerned with our health.

Yes, Elon Musk is going to pump LYNX to >100 satoshi soon. Buy now before it is too late!

I am reviewing the project documents for about 4 hours. It looks like a very comprehensive project, I will invest a little for ICO. Does Elon musk really support this project?

RIght On Man!!!  Back Live on the LTC Markets at CRYPTOPIA!!!
 

I don't agree with PoS variants cause I don't know any good imaplementation of PoS which could work fast while syncing after 1-2 millions of blocks, i.e. 1-2 years in the case of Lynx blocktime 30s.

I like idea of PoS very much if PoS is very low, but current implementations of PoS are very bad for longer term coins.

Possible implementation of the merged mining is good idea.

This I already wrote so you can comment:

---

"Lynx coins works very fast when you need syncing or resyncing. All my PoS coins are very slow at that jobs, totally uncomparable with the speed of Lynx. I think only one PoS coin which should consider is Peercoin which does not have problems with syncing speed. Novacoin or Blackcoin clones are very bad when coins is more than 1 or 2 year old, by my experience."


"I will test syncing all of this coins, maybe I will change my view: https://coinsutra.com/proof-of-stake-cryptocurrencies/ "


"First I tested PIVX coin. Syncing of the whole blockchain  lasted more than 4.5 h. Coin is old about 2 years.  Problem which will became extremely big (just like with the vast majority of PoS coins) is exponential growth of time needed to synchronize the blockchain. It means, first year was synchronized at 1 h,  but second year required almost 4 h to finish sinchronization. I think at the next years this coin will become just like the most of the other PoS coins where you have to wait big time, few hours or evan more time  to synchronize for example 1 last week or 1 last month of the newest blockchain data.
Also, PIVX has block time 60s, and Lynx has block time 30s. In the case of the introducing PoS and the same/similar way of the calculating PoS, Lynx could have big problem with the blockchain syncing after 1 or 2 years after the possible  PoS forking time which will escalate further with the time and the acceptance.
At the current state, Lynx syncing time is very fast. Similar coins which is reviving last months is Argentum which became similar to DigiByte (I think). Argentum's syncing is also very fast, a bit faster than Lynx cause of  block time 45s. In the recent forks, Argentum introduced  4 new algos: Lyra2re2 (GPU)
Myr-Groestl (GPU/ASIC)
Argon2d (CPU)
Yescrypt (CPU/GPU)   as addition to scrypt and sha256d. I think while mining each algo is used to mine one coin block after previous one which is mined by previous algo  from the algo serie.
Maybe this DigiByte/Argentum  multi-algo coin way  is better than introducing PoS. What do you think?"



"PoS implementations is very bad on every coins i tried, except (MAYBE) in Peercoin which has bigger block time than Lynx for example. Such coins are not suitable for regular and longer term use. For those coins with short blocktime like Lynx has, problems with the long time syncing startss even at its 1st year and despite its no wide acceptance. If this coin is short term game, then everything mentioned is not important."


Additional: PIVX is 2 years old coin, and now it has only 1 million blocks, and at this moment its PoS and masternodes implementation seems better than implementation at Novacoin or Blackcoin clones. But exponential growth of the syncing time is easy to notice by measuring synced blocks and passed time. At the current time and state this implementation is quite good.

I have more than 10 PoS coins, and all of them are very bad, very slow while resyncing after 1-2 millions of blocks. I think all of them are based on Novacoin or Blackcoin, and all of them have bad implementation while syncing (very slow, it depends on the current number of blocks in the blockchain) including Novacoin and Blackcoin.

Current implementation of Lynx is very fast, Lynx is one of the fastest coins while syncing or resyncing and I like that very much. By known PoS implementation it will be heavy ruined after quite short time, I think and would not like to check it.

Which coin have the best PoS implementation and don't have slow syncing or resyncing which getting worse exponentially by the time? (coin should be old more than 2 years, and coin should have more than 2 millions of  "PoS-ing blocks")

I think the reward system could work. Devs have clearly decided this isn’t mining for profit, but mining just enough to secure the network and earn enough to pay for your own transactions. I think, too, that there are other possibilities for the network down the line that may make us all think differently about mining for rewards, ie, if the ideas that will run on top of Lynx are good enough, there may be plenty of people willing to support the network for free, just to enjoy the benefits of greater returns in Lynx. Just a thought.

Since algo is scrypt, what about merged mining? You don't use any more that what is already being used for scrypt. doge is doing this with litecoin... there's no problem with hashing power there.

dev has this put energy into these rasp pi miners, so using low cpu method to mine is important. merged mining wouldn't help with that, but PoS could work. Again, that means only former kittehcoin owners benefit. Even if low reward stake, no one has any quantity other than previous MEOW coin owners. Or buy on exchange...

SOme humor to it:

Mr. Chobani, "lynx" is an English word, it is not copied from anywhere. BTW, unlike the made-up word "linx", "lynx" has real meaning. Use the dictionary please.

Why did you choose to copy the name of an already existing coin? (LINX)

What's next, starting a coin called Lytecoin?
