Some people has to invest otherwise barely anyone would mine it. But I see what you mean. Unfortunately ZEC was way overhyped and likely heavily manipulated as well.

And the slowstart was so slow that ZEC was essentially instamined in a sense. Not amount wise, of course, that amount is nothing now but the first couple of people made a lot of money even with a fraction of a coin. Miners were virtually ripping pool owners' throats for payment delays. And then there's early private miners which also hurt distribution.

Anyway, my point is that you don't need ~34 days of climbing to avoid instamining, that's ridiculous. Even if there's a new algo waiting with no public miners.

But this day and age newly a released big coin without a windows wallet and some basic GPU miners for both teams is kind of laughable imo and makes it hard to take it seriously. Even Eth got a lot of flack for it and rightfully so.

A coin with linux/mac/windows wallets and basic GPU (not just CPU) miners at launch and some proper marketing way beforehand shouldn't need more than a few days of slow start.

And if you don't have all that, what's even the point of releasing a half-cooked coin - even if it has a killer feature (other than the obvious answer of making money)? It's not like you want as many people as possible to use it... oh wait.

A slow start is absolutely needed to prevent instamining.

Yes it's a stupid idea to invest from the beginning during slowstart, why do you need to invest immediately? That's not a problem.


SP says a lot of things, I'll believe these things when I see it. It's just as easy to say I'm going to be making a coin and it'll be released in the next decade, fair for everyone, amazing technological innovations, anonymous transactions, and large whale investor support! It's like the tagline for every trash coin released in the last three years.

Guys, you are doing it wrong, as we say here you are climbing to tree ass ahead  Currency that is fair for those who are printing it? Yeah right...

Anonymity, fast transfers, low fees, fair distribution, basically all what banksters hate. Give me that and I am all in.

True. But anything's better than Zcash's slow start imo.

~34 days from 0 to 12.5 means exactly what we experienced; crazy high initial price followed by a continous slow dump because the slow start is basically nothing but a super high inflation period which makes it a stupid idea to invest into it during that time.

But by the time the slowstart ends, the price is already low.

And then the blockreward staying the same for 4 years is another stupid idea because it's just another super high inflation period.

It made sense for bitcoin because barely any people mined it back then and now that it's established it doesn't matter. I might end up working for ZEC in 4-8 years but by that time it would also very well end up being ancient tech.


I think Zcash should have started with something like 6 ZEC per block and after the slow start the blockreward should have gradually decreased over time. There's no reason not to do a gradual decrease instead of the old school sudden halvings every 4 years.

Today, I will work on it.

I don't copy a low difciculty coin with dickhead support.

Its amazing how you think I'm making it my own..... just copy difficulty adjustment of dime coin that's what I was hinting at.

But if the emisssion have a roof value and the graph is not linear, could be bether than the slow start of zcash.

a thing it's client side, like the KlausT skein kernel, another thing it's server side with accepted rates, where the latter it's equal to the "apparently slower" 1.8.3 from Tpruvot (That I use).

Stability first, and pool side accepted shares second. It's pointless to obtain 1GH/s if you've got accepted shares for 0.4, server-side.

About the coin, there needs to be done a complex study about inflation/deflation and coin/btc rates, given the possible optimizations of the code by public or private kernels, if available, and also the admin/operators intention, that could kill the viability of the project immediately, given that we need to count an immense and immediate hashrate (instamining with private kernels at it's finest) of the admins.

Such kind of coin should have an inflation like zcash, but also an immediate exchange to support the mining process (not cryptopia, ccex or youbit, but trex for example, with a planned release - NOT NINJA). Without such mechanics, and with a better inflation curve than zcash, we could avoid the immediate dumping scenario, that could obliterate the initial casual investors. Other than that: FEATURES ! Are we talking about another Instamining Shitcoin dumped to death after a couple of weeks, or something else?

Good idea but it means emission is unpredictable which means less speculative investors will bother.

It would need some real world use or some incentive for people to hold it.

Looked at Elacoin, distribution has nothing to do with market health. It has something similar to a difficulty retargeting system that's more advanced based on difficulty, but still has nothing to do with the market. This doesn't seperate itself from other coins, just assumes there is more 'demand' if the difficulty is higher... That's not what I was proposing.

What they were doing is a good way to get the coin pummeled into the ground.


That's Elacoin and also not what I was talking about.


It's amazing how fast you guys try to make ideas your own though. ^^

you need to make a coin that encourage buying and not dumping, so until you can make a coin that is not only a pump and dump but also used a currency you will not get far here, there is a reason why btcoin isn't dead

because it's used like fiat

No. If the network hashrate is falling, less inflation. The miners get the same amout of coins. The coinprice has nothing to do with it.

But if the coin price drops then mining would stop instantly.
I was mining a coin on and off for 1 year with the difficulty adjustment I said making .12 btc once in a while with rented hash too.

Very good news...I am begin to understand what nvidia with private kernels - best profitand much stable than amd solution

I think the next skein sp-mod will do more than 600 on the 1070 and 750-800 on the 1080

-i was not set before. Tried 26.9 - all ok. But with current hashrate XCN more profitable than skein coins

Try to reduce the intensity.

-i 26.9 ?

tested spmod 1.5.80 with skein because dunno where to get miner for 586 - 530 mh for gtx 1070 OC and 20% rejects - so sad ( mined digibyte at yiimp )

Nice. You had to compile that correct.?  If so with what cuda version and what miner source code plz.
Going to try to compile again.
