the doubts about luck-2poc, now give an explanation:
1.This is testet, not prenet. After the mainnet launched, the project will start from the first block.
2.The file of Luck-2poc will be published on GitHub and will be notified to everyone on bitcointalk. As for why email registration is required, it is because our mining method has changed. We don’t know whether luck’s miners hold hard drives, and we also hope that real and reliable hard drive miners will participate in the test.
3.Every miner participating in the test will get the same resources on GitHub. For accounts that participate in the email registration, the data will be included in the test report.
4.Of course, we welcome the participation of hard disk miners. Email registration is to select honest miners, follow up on mining data, and give some token rewards. I believe that once mainnet launched, miners are also looking forward to knowing the test results in order to decide whether to participate.

Luck-2poc is about to enter the testing phase and is now recruiting hard disk miners.

Luck-2poc is an upgraded version of Luck-2pow. As for why need to upgrade, the reasons are as follows:

1. Luck-2pow's community and miners are very good participants. As the value of luck gets higher and higher, it has attracted the attention of GPU professional miners. GPU participation monopolizes computing power and harms the interests of cpu miners. In order to protect the interests of the community, Luck-2pow once chose to upgrade the argon2d algorithm to the randomx algorithm.
2. As the Luck-2pow algorithm is upgraded to RandomX, the system begins to have synchronization difficulties, and as the number of new nodes increases and the blocks mined by the new algorithm increase, synchronization becomes more and more unstable. According to engineering and theoretical analysis, randomX uses a mutex Lock when calculating the hash value, and it takes about 1.5 seconds to calculate the hash value. When the number of nodes increases and the number of blocks that need to be synchronized increases, the instability of the system will increase dramatically. Then Luck-2pow is suspended.

In order to protect the interests of the Luck-2pow community and miners, Luck-2pow was upgraded to Luck-2poc again. The reason is: Luck-2poc uses hard disk capacity for mining, in principle, GPU computing power monopoly will not be formed; in order to protect the interests of community miners, we have made a promise: We will give the same amount of Luck-2poc compensation to the accounts that holding Luck-2pow before the block 388,000. At the same time, rewards will be given to miners who participate in the Luck-2poc mining test. The reward mechanism is as follows:

1. Recruit new hard disk miners and give test rewards;
2. Users who sign up for participation are tentatively scheduled for 50 accounts. The first 20 registered miners will be rewarded with 800 tokens for each account; the remaining 30 registered miners will be rewarded with 400 tokens.;
3. Registration: Email to [email protected].
4. Test time: January 15, 2021
5. Test cycle: 2 weeks
