Any chances of having SHA256 or Scrypt mining algorithm? I don't do GPU/CPU at all

Sorry no.

Argon2d will be the PoW mining algorithm and Blake2B will be the PoS algorithm.

good selections!
how did you end up to those? Grin

waiting to see gpu vs cpu results..

We wouldn't launch without all the necessary software.

Please read the thread.

I Think many have the same problem, a better known hashrate will make a bigger mining hash , but also better spreading.

Im simply not going to own the coin cause when a new algo comes out mostly people of the community will instamine or , mine it like crazy.
and the coin will be pumped/ dumped

Bigger mining hash will give added security to coin network and higher the pool hash lower the coin mining profitability. I think every miner should be given chance to mine; shouldn't matter what algorithm.

A new algo will mean many people cant mine it mostly so actually not everyone get the chance Wink

They cant even rent miners or something, many people sold there miners after most coin diff got too high and wont invest again to
buy gpu's to invest in a new coin.

PoW isn't for a set period, it is indefinite.

Also bear in mind we are tuning Argon2d and also releasing miners for NVidia and ATi.

Most people just dont mine gpu anymore cause its cost a lot of power compared to many software , also i understand pow isnt a set period,
but the diff increase after a while.

Will the mining software be launched before the mining start so miners can jump in from second 1 ?

when will silk be changed to dark silk coins on 1:1 ratio ? and can people start stakeing darksilk ?

Never, and yes PoS is a feature of DarkSilk and the new Silk.

Silkcoin will be able to be swapped to the new Silk at a 1:1 ratio.

The dates for the DarkSilk and Silk launch will be announced once the codebase of both are tested and ready.

This also applies to the Weaver platform.

So if i get it right silk will get 2 coins , 1 called darksilk and one called newsilk

newsilk is rebranded (old silk)

darksilk will start from 0  coins and will have a fair new launch soon ?
They both become PoS, but why do you need 2 coins ?

To be honest i like the fact you guys work hard on this and rebranding it , but so far its all pretty confusing.

Silk Network is the name given to our entire network which encompasses Silk, DarkSilk and the Weaver platform.

Silkcoin that everyone is using now has an awful network with a lot of issues, not to mention a garish wallet overloaded with features (many unneeded). Because of this I have been coding a new coin simply called Silk which has the suffix SLK to replace Silkcoin (SILK) completely. The swap will be handled on Weaver at a 1:1 swap ratio. The swap will be indefinite but only caters to addresses that held Silkcoin (SILK) at the moment of launch or prior to it, this is because there are a lot of users of Silkcoin and if we put a time limit on the swap there is a great chance people will not find out until it is too late.

DarkSilk is an entirely new coin which I have been working on solely since April/May last year until November time when Amir Abrams joined the team and has started to assist me with the work. DarkSilk (DRKSILK) has Stormnodes (Masternodes), Sandstorm (DarkSend), InstantX, Proof of Work, Proof of Stake, Quorums, Budgeting/Proposals/Voting, Stealth Addresses,Watch-Only addresses, a decentralised marketplace and more. DarkSilk will also have a brand new algorithm for PoW called Argon2d which Wolf0 is configuring and also creating GPU miners for. PoS will have Blake2B for PoS. PoW will not be CPU mined as to avoid exploitation via Botnets.

The Weaver platform has many features and more info can be found in the whitepaper here (please note whitepaper is not final until the moment of launch) - https://goo.gl/OwgKnv

at least something new to mine for gpu miners , sold all mine so prob cant join the mining process , my silkcoins are on a exchange i need to transfer them to a wallet before the new launch to avoid coin loss?

You can send them direct from the exchange to the Weaver platform. Simply register on Weaver once it launches and you will have an online wallet for Silk/DarkSilk/Bitcoin on there Wink

Is there a way those coins get togheter or anything like that ?

Will be swapping out the Scrypt code for Argon2d and removing the PoW limitations.

Anyone have Argon2d mining software for nvidia?

No. Should have miners on release. Besides, the parameters to Argon2d haven't even been chosen yet - it's a tunable KDF.

We won't launch without the mining software ready Wink

but, client online and staking!!
soon it is time to setup masternodes..
(i was hopin little longer pow phase to test..do we need it?)

But for now, yeah, the code is how it stands for testing right now.

PoW works fine though and that's why it isn't needed to have a long period. What we need to test is PoS and Stormnode payments, hence the PoW being short and PoS starting on block 101 in the test version.
