Groestlcoin was created on 22 March 2014 and we’ve seen some interesting few months since then. A lot has also been achieved. We have:

  • Patched the HeartBleed vulnerability
  • Updated to Dark Gravity Wave 3
  • Updated the logo
  • Created the new website
  • Created a Reddit tip bot for our users. u/GroestlTip
  • Built a solid base in social communities like twitter, reddit, facebook
  • Created an official Groestlcoin forum, paper money generator, extra block explorer, and got listed on numerous exchanges
  • It is even possible to buy GRS directly with Euro (on 2 different websites).

Building on these important milestones, today we would like to share with you the Groestlcoin roadmap for 2014:

Our most important update: Groestlcoin is going POW + POS (70% POW and 30% POS) on block #150,000 (early July 2014). The community has been asking for it and we are implementing it.

Also, from block #150,000, the new block reward strategy will be used: 25 GRS initially and decreasing 1% each week up to the minimum reward of 5 GRS. The total volume of coins will not be changed and will remain 105,000,000.

It will give us 10 additional years (up to 2033) of mining using the Groestl algorithm and it’ll decrease the inflation levels.

From block #120,000 to block #150,000 the reward will be decreased 10% daily, reaching 25 GRS at block #150,000.

We will launch a Groestlcoin advertising campaign, featuring a bodypainted model in the first week of June. Sneak peak: http://goo.gl/KE2xfO

At block #200,000 (or earlier, if time permits) we will introduce GroestlSend, a way to send anonymous transactions.

Other news is that we will be launching a Groestl/MyriadGroestl multipool during this summer and payouts will be in GRS.

We will keep working on a JavaScript/WebGL Groestlcoin mining website and planning to open it by the end of 2014 (no exact date yet).

Android miner has just been released and it gives about 25-60 KH/s per core, on the latest smartphones/tablets. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.miner.groestl and https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.miner

Another June premiere is a p2pool for Groestlcoin. This will help us better distribute hashes and secure the network.

We are also focusing on the actual usage of Groestlcoin in daily life. Payments with GRS, shops accepting GRS, etc. We just won the CoinPayments.net vote.

Groestlcoin will keep being a community coin and follow the latest trends in crypto currencies.

Thank You,

The GroestlCoin team

i read on twitter you released a miner with a phone/ lol

what is that connected to a pool ? and the battery drain on the device ? heat strain if cpu is pushed to 100% ?

i understand making applications for smartphones to send/receive coins but mining ?

that seems a little crazy...

Hi cinnamon... i see there's another blaker here Wink... it is just a Watt/$ demonstration of the algo efficiency...

I like the idea and it would be nice to have the same for other coins, specially for a certain group of merged mineable coins Wink

    khash/s is shown, but not in the main GUI, you can select the menu option "show totals" which shows the hashrate and also the shares found. Also pro releases (groestlcoin release although is free works the same way as pro's) have the ability to show hashrates in the notification bar.

    Also, the app name was changed. Now it is: Crypto Miner (BTC,LTC,QRK,GRS)

    Going to give it a try again in the morning... have been catching up with game of thrones and it is already 3:00am here....

    it would be nice to get a little bit more info about how many blocks are found by the pool each time it is found, and what is the speed and the balance of each user.

    which pool are you talking about?

    Each pools has its own statistics. Even groestlcoin.biz has it: http://groestlcoin.biz/workers

    [so the biggest wallet still only has around 6btc worth whats wrong with that?

    quote author=srcxxx link=topic=525926.msg7030304#msg7030304 date=1401433147]
    I'm not sure what the original author of the top 100 addresses printout is referring too.
    But I presume that he means that some wallets have too many GRS.
    But I'd like to point out that exchanges and pools wallets are also in the list.
    For example, grs.cryptohunger.com has around 200,000 in the wallet (guys, please withdraw, this is not a bank!).
    I'm sure mintpal and poloniex also have quite a bit.

    Can you compare with similar printouts for different alt-currencies?
    I don't think many have this info public.

    I don't think this coin will go up too much.look at the top rich list

    Are you saying theyre too rich?

    Groestl is a great algo that is efficient and doesnt take up a lot of energy. I just wish more groestl coins would come out. X11 is great, too, but I think its just trendy cause DRK uses it and DRK has risen so high in value.

    Regarding the Android miner app...

    1) There are no open source miners for Android. I did search myself and have personally contacted 5 authors of paid miners.
    2) I recommend you to try the free version first. Use port 4444 (yes, 4444. not 3333) on groeslcoin.biz, your wallet address as login. It has very low difficulty setting (diff=1), good for Androids.
    3) There will be a special version just for Groestlcoin released (hopefully today).

    PS: updated Windows and Mac wallets are availabel on official site.

    How much does the Android miner cost?

    Assuming it is ~5$ I will subsidize 50% of the pucrhase for the first 10 people to submit screenshots of results from their android devices. Only first two submissions per device though will have a chance. i.e Id like at least 5 diff devices covered.

    You will be subsidized in GRS of course at a rate of  0.00000550  (last price MintPal)

    The Team will certainly tweet these results but your btctalk identity will not be revealed on twittr, altho clearly it will be here.

    Perhaps this would be better posted in groestlcoin.org/forum but I feel you guys are still the life-blood of crypto so I reach out to YOU.

    REMINDER: I hope to demonstrate that ARM is as efficient as GPU mining on Grøstl as defined by a watt/hash calculation (ARM procs use around 2W!)

    First lady/gent to post screenshot will have 100% subsidy in GRS.

    Black hat thinking here:

    • That's a paid app. The lite version has an annoying ad on top of the app the whole time, clearly contradicting Google's guidelines for Ads.
    • The lite version only tells you it is mining. Doesn't show hashrate, doesn't show sharerate... nothing, it could be just burning cycles with no-ops just for you to watch the annoying ad.
    • The lite version only runs when on foreground, unproffesional.
    • And worse than anything else, the app is closed source. I can't for the life of me support a closed source miner, they could be mining on their own address and you won't even know, because they aren't telling you your hashrate.

    I'm deeply interested in this coin, but this miner isn't what we need right now. Uninstalled right away. And i have 3 android devices here screaming to mine.

    Btw, i'm working on services paid with this coin. Even my serious business will start accepting GRS soon, i've already done the backend and have a nice frontend. I think we need more merchants accepting this coin.

    I opened the app and checked for anything malicious and it is not present!
    every program on android has a file extension of  "" *.apk"
    changing the extension to zip allows you to read every byte of source code in the prog.
    yes there could be many changes to this app but its a damn good start ........ as everyone has started somewhere.
    with googles adb "open source" it allows anyone to inspect modify and change anything within the android market and everything is open! nothing is closed source!
    pay if you don't want to spend the time recoding it yourself
