In addition to running cooler, Scrypt ASICS are rolling out. This coin will get obliterated (with almost all the Scrypt coins) as soon as those hit. Only survivors will be *Maybe* litecoin. X11 has no ASICS yet, runs cooler, and might actually give this coin a shot. I agree, Random difficulty seems new and interesting
Thanks for the input. I might make the switch to x11. I'm still trying to figure out how I will do this with 0% pre-mine. It would be great if we could get some donations to really kickstart this coin.
If you write good code, promote your coin and get some actual adoption (and merchant support) then you'll get donations and support from miners. Same way miners can make a living mining, you should be able to make one by developing your coin. The algo is the starting point, but without attention this'll die like so many other coins.
Well I have the algo down pat I believe. I just need to do a bit more reading on x11, the switch should only take me an hour or two. Ill have it done tomorrow if I decide to go that route. I'm just hoping this coin gets enough donations to buy spots on the top exchanges. It would instantly become a success.
