Topic: [ANN][EXN] Exilecoin | A coin with purpose (Read 16694 times)

fyi

This coin was 'cloned' from a coin I launched in 2013 CinnamonCoin

So first I am not the dev of this but I am familiar with the code.

This coin was later changed to use the kgw vs. the original linear retarget for pow. 

Sadly , as I know know (but had less experience back then) the coin used as a 'foundation' for Cinnamoncoin's source had some 'flaws' in it mostly related to calculation of stake modifiers and difficulty.


As my c++ & other experience has grown I now realize the flaws in the code aside: Proof of Stake has flaws.

I still have cinnamoncoin nodes up but the network was attacked several times & currently has a negative time stamp preventing proof of work.

My current involvment with the BlakeCoin system + merged mining is my focus now.

Eventually when I have time I will rewrite cinnamoncoin to be proof of work only although I have not decided on an algorithm yet (def. plan to abandon scrypt 1024)

If the developer of this coin wants to correct the error you are seeing or if you do to take it over the stake modification check points in the kernel.cpp file need to be updated and since the codes proof of stake difficulty calculation is flawed it : it needs to be adjusted .. Also i would suggest cutting the clock drift from 2 hours to 15 minutes. It still may not work since I never really looked this over but I know at least those things are necessary to mend it.

I have a fully synced QT, but a warning that checkpoint is too old... I think I might need to upgrade the wallet software, but... Where to download? I'm using version 1.4.0.0...

Appreciated!

Another one for my graveyard folder then, huh? Though the website is still up and running: fast hosting too

Peace!

Post-edit: I stand corrected: latest wallet gave me 1 connected node... Let's see if it syncs too Their last tweet was exactly 1 year ago... Yeay! ;p

There's no point, it looks like this coin is dead as the dev has not posted in two months.

Where can i obtain the Keys with EXN?

You're mining a coin with no updates in it's thread for 1 month?

So, I have been mining ExileCoin for about a month now and if I'm not mistaken this is supposed to have PoS and my wallet has yet to generate any stake despite my coins never leaving my wallet... Am I doing something wrong here...?

The P2P port is not the same and yes unfortunately the original Dev changed nearly nothing else but the port.  This is unfortunate.  As for multipool attack proof it clearly wasn't as that what killed the first Algo.  I also attempted to contact you recently regarding the matter and you ignored these messages.  I'd still like to talk to you about some things but im still waiting for a reply to your twitter.  The page you read I think was when I miss clicked create a pull request after cloning the project. This still had the default README file.

Please do PM me a method to talk to you directly I'd much appreciate it

Oh god!!!
They've started creating perfect clones .

Funny to read this.

No one but sock puppets cheer on these shitbox coins anymore anyway, I wouldn't worry about it.  Only retards mine shit like this.

note,

this is a straight up clone from Cinnamon Coin (a coin I am the developer of) with an increase in max money

I don't care about that ,since Cinnamon Coin was cloned from something else,   

I do think however the developer(S) should have changed the ports from being the same as my coin since according to the main post here they are the same.

Since they did not change the hex (magic) numbers and are using the same port (or so it appears) this can in theory cause the two networks to 'talk' to one another.   Since my coin was certainly launched first (mid september of last year) I have no intention of changing the ports of mine. 

I also noticed they cloned my github recently to put the kgw into this codebase.......

Keep in mind guys this is designed to be mainly proof of stake and proof of stake blocks (the way it is now) are always going to take priority over proof of work blocks.  I am not a big fan of the kgw either.  The linear retargeting should be sufficient........

I cannot control other peoples coin networks nor do I want to sound like I am looking to start trouble.

I support (almost) all other alt coins or can be at least neutral  (large premines I feel are unfair and doge is something I think needs to be 51%'d out of it's misery) 


I just thought I should bring these points up since either no one else has noticed or cares. 

I care.

I have spent many hours and other resources working on cinnamon coin (and other projects) It is traded at Coins E and on Coin Warz , so it is a successful coin that is by design resistant to multipool attack not just because of the retarget system however because of how the proof of stake settings are.

Honestly I was considering recoding Cinnamon Coin with level db support and possibly 'tweak' the proof of stake settings in a future release but that may be a few months away.   There are lots of open ports still.  I guess someday there may be so many coins that every port is taken !!

But not yet ...... just some food for thought......  cheers

Important Update from 9th April 2014

As many of you have woundered the last few weeks, what was going on and and why there was no real mining. Here is the best explination that i can give out as of now.

First of all, thanks to Jimmy06 and many hours of testing and testing, EXN is back on track.

The reasons why this happened are easy and hard at the same time, a multipool seems to have jumped on EXN and increased extremely the difficulty. The old wallets difficulty algorythm did not allow and was not build for this situation.

We have now tested and deployed a new algorythm known as Kimoto Gravity Well. This reselt the difficulty back to a low level when a block has not be found for a certain period.

With that said, download the newest wallet from www.exilecoin.com and give it a try, all nodes and pools we host and let host, are already updated.

The EXN crypto shop was shut down for security reasons during the switch, it will be turned up online tomorrow.

Thanks you for all this patience, next target is now to get listed on some popular exchanges and let the currency take its way.

any marketing planned? hype? contests?

WTB 325 EXN

cmon exile.
looking good on allcrypt!

What is going on with this coin, alive? dead? give an updade abouts up and down?

COMING!

This coin alive at all? Its near the top of the voting list on AllCrypt.com but we're not adding dead coins.
