Will you be giving away any coins at launch so people without big mining rigs stand a chance of mining using PoB?



No sense, Dcrypt isn't GPU implemented, so anyone with a CPU would be able to mine Slimcoin for the first days... at least

The Slimcoin client has all of the mining tools needed for PoB, PoW, and PoS. There will be an external miner for PoW released also that can be used for pool mining, etc.

Can someone explain why do we burn coins?
Why does raspberry pi have advantage over high end cpu or gpu?

Burnt coins can be used to generate PoB hashes, which then can be used to mine PoB blocks. PoB hashes are different from PoW hashes and are hashed in a different way/rate. They are hashed at 1 hash for every burn transaction you have made per 90 seconds. That is extremly undemanding, and that is why a super low power computer can handle PoB mining just as well as the fastest computer on this planet. A Raspberry Pi does not have an advantage mining wise, the advantage is indifferent. What makes the low power computers advantageous is that it is low power, easily attainable and maintainable, and cheaper.

Do we sending existing coins in wallet to be burnt (I guess not)?
Burning coins basically involves sending existing coins (generated from either PoB, PoW, or PoS) to an address that no one has the private key of, meaning they belong to no one and no one can spend them. Since you sent them to that address, they are destroyed and effectively burnt. Once burnt, you can engage in PoB mining.

Keep an eye on it. I read the white paper, however, still confused by proof of burn,

"The role of burning coins is to be proof when mining by proof-of-burn. The concept simply involves sending coins
to a burn address. A burn address is a special address that is specific and predetermined. No one has ownership of
the burn address, meaning once coins are sent to it, they are forever gone and are considered “burnt”"

Cut the coin total to 100 mil, 2bil. is just stupid
2bil, 2 big for nothing.

I agree also, 100 Mil or less is ideal.

And make sure to spread it over a 10 year period.

Otherwise get ready for : Launch - pump - dump - pause - pump - dump - pause - pause - pause - pump -dump - dump - dump - dump - dump (too many coins) Look at MYR now, dump fest, innovative coin destroyed by 270 mil MYR in circulation (2 bil total)


Exactly.

Agree with these guys. Dev team should think about it

What non-traditional platforms will have binaries on release?

Android, Raspberry PI? It would be cool if even OpenWRT routers could mine it Wink Wink Wink

VIC-20?
