Well, tbearhere is right there are questionmarks about what is said and presented by John.
Maybe he is a bit of a good but sloppy professor. I mean sloppy by having Libcoin as name in the wallet (even having Libcoin in the image in post 1 of this thread),
and running in all these startup problems after 1 year of working on it, is a bit remarkable too,
as also would be forgetting to mention his algo is based on an existing algo and not build from scratch.
As said, I hope John will not let us down and turns out to be trustworthy.

Really hope you are wrong. It would be so disappointing if this was just another foolaround coin. Too many of those lately, last few weeks we already had diodecoin and optimumcoin cheating the community. So sad if Vanillacoin turns out to be one alike.
Yes i'm trying to help us not getting burnt. Thats all. When he said new...it is not...I have been mining this algo for a while.

Bullshit.  If you were interested in the truth you would simply apologize for your mistake.
Explain re-targeting please.

A re-targeting algorithm is what the software uses to determine the difficulty of the blocks being mined.  Many coins have made small (and large) attempts to refine the difficulty retargeting for a variety of block chain health purposes. 

It's a really big topic actually and I am far from being an expert at any of this so if you want to know more about retargeting in general or the specifics of this coins new retargeting algo you will need to do your own research.

Hopefully that helps you understand that the dev has not been disingenuous.
Ok cool but its still not a new algo.  Smiley

ok dude but what you really want to communicate is that it is not a new hashing algorithm.

Since the dev took the time to communicate clearly I think it is basic respect to not ignore the context of the word algorithm.  Having a misunderstanding is fine, everyone does it from time to time.

Be patient, I just invented a new algorithm that's never been tested before mid-stream release.

It will be soon. The biggest problem is my slow CPU's compiling windows code.

I will update shortly.

Thank you for your support.
Isn't that whirlcoin algo... c11 ?

see no answer

He's probably not answering you directly because he has better stuff to do like get the wallet working.

You think you are a super clever sleuth who cracked the case but if you took the time to read the whitepaper in the original post you would see that it states quite plainly "The chosen algorithm is Whirlpool".  So this isn't a secret or something that the dev was hiding from the community.  You are like a troll without a bridge.
If you took time to read....he said he created a new algo...it's old you troll...just trying to bring truth to this.

He said he created a new difficulty retargeting algorithm.  Go ahead and tell me how I can't read again.

I've been thinking, what stops someone from changing to source to use all cores of a processor instead of just one? If someone can get away with that then we could have a very skewed distribution.

Or gpu mining.  If source is released it will be done.

Hope that by then the initial distribution is fair and the coin is popular. The mining evolves from cpu to gpu and new players come on board. Its a good thing I think and a coin should be allowed to evolve like that. So long as we can make it a fair distribution at the beginning and the coin keeps gaining popularity the rest will take care of itself.

 Huh  What's a scam?

Pretty sure the algo used here for vanilla is a modified version of what is used on that coin.

I'll follow this one. Fairness algorithm looks very interesting to me  Smiley
Also, I like CPU coins Smiley
