Topic: [ANN] [UBERCOIN] Working on a new coin. Will update this thread when completed. - page 11. (Read 12292 times)

A real innovative coin would introduce a new PoW, able to create dynamic connectors
for real world computation (e.g. folding etc.) on top of this. A coin with this capacity,
where the miner can choose what project he like to support with his computation power would
get tremendous attention from all directions. Community and media inclusive.
Plugin a working module (MATH/CHEM/BIO/MED/ASTRO) and choose your device type (CPU/GPU/FPGA).
Get your work from a 'babel-pow-broker-instance' and just start the local worker instance.
THIS would be innovative, instead to burn 5^10 kw/h with scrypt based, GPU only burner-coins
just to be safe of ASICs.

Don't take me wrong here, I like alt-coins and announcements like your's but I don't
understand why some talented coder doesn't start to work into this direction instead
wasting zetahashes of computation power just for a useless and boring SHA or scrypt.
Hopefully we will see something like this mentioned above soon.

So you asked, here we go...

By the time we are done here, that wont be a real issue. We will design it the way it should have been from day 1.

Put a clause in that states that it is not currency and the government cannot regulate it. [/sarcasm]

Added to OP.

So far we are on a roll anything else that would be useful to crypto to decentralize or make it easier?

Nice! I for one welcome any new coins as I love the code as much as the coins! Can't wait to see what you come up with.

well, we need to do something about the blockchain size.... too much to download for some people with slow/bad/expensive internet :-(

Originally it was a litecoin source base, but I will probably be forking off one of the alts again and reimplementing the new algo. Most of them have been cleaned up some already, but I will go through and do some clean up on the dirtier parts of the code I notice.

What source base are you working with?

Anyone else have any suggestions? Today I am making improvements to the attack resistance and anonymity.

penalize per hash rate? i disagree. If you want to have a chance, then invest into hardware, those people with crazy power spend money to have those hash rates, it's only fair they get proportional rewards

I dont think that would be possible with pools. Maybe solo mining, but the client would only be able to track the machine its on.

I don't know if this is possible or not.

I would like to see a coin that penalizes higher hash speed so small miners have a chance.
I am mining at 1GH/s-1MH/s and can only use pool mining once the difficulty gets above 0.4. I would far prefer to solo mine and that is why I like Memory Coin.

Yeah an integrated chat. where developers team can talk to each other.

And the demonstrable scientific utility of cunningham chains being ... ?

OP updated, does anyone have any out of the box or odd features they would like in the wallet?

Sounds interesting.  Attack resistant and anonymous would something to shoot for as well.

It will just be an empty account initially. But I will give out the link so everyone has a fair chance to get it at the same time. I would like suggestions though for features posted here at first. The base for the code is already written, but I would like to correct the issues across the board from all these coins. Some of them have gotten 1 or 2 things right, but are still missing important items to ensure decentralized and unfettered access to the coin.

I will be releasing it with little bits of code from all the coins I have seen appear this past year, just the good features. This will not be an "instant" coin like Feathercoin or Fastcoin, their security is not guaranteed when the times are so low.

But note the features and things you would like fixed on the coins and I will add them to the OP.

If anyone is aware of a particular piece of code that is especially in need of cleaning up from one of the original coins (I can use bitcoin/litecoin/whatever as a base) lots of the code in each of the coin is in desperate need of cleanup. From the looks of it, one of the other alts will probably be used as a base since they have already implemented some new features I can start with one of them. (this is not to imply I do not already have part written, just explaining that it is a simple change to move the new hash function to the other coin is simple)

This will be an ongoing work in progress.

Sounds interesting!  I'm looking forward to the release.  What time will you be posting to git?

I recommend doing something original, or it'll just be yet another crapcoin.  Even then....

Try to integrate real world value.  Whatever opinion you have of cunningham chains primecoin has proven that demonstrable scientific utility will spur adoption and popularity more than anything else you could possibly do to a coin.

I will be posting the git tomorrow. And check in to see if anyone has any suggestions beyond what I came up with on my own. I will be adding many new RPC commands to the client, this will be a whole new way of working with cryptos.
