Topic: [ARG] "random" reward (Read 635 times)
Interesting idea
cool idea, goodluck!
why 10min? the announcement says it depends on the hash of the last block, and it has 32 Second block time
so as soon as you see a block you would have to decide if you mine or not depending on that block.

so it has to be automated, still, Difficulty hoping is being done automatically too.
So... this new altcoin ARG has pseudo-random block rewards supposedly to avoid difficulty hopping. But... since the reward (the seed for randomness) depends on the last block, it would allow "reward-hopping"! meaning you only mine if the next block will have the highest reward... so it doesn't make much sense to me. And you cannot make it random because you need the network to agree on the block reward.
my 2 cents
cheers
Psuedo-random. You can't tell it's coming until 10 minutes. my 2 cents
