Topic: CureCoin Progress Update--Launch Approaching! - page 2. (Read 6619 times)

Well, folding will always be done via the folding pool, however solo mining for SHA256D miners will be possible at launch.

update on launch:

http://curecoin.us/index.php?topic=1126.0

we are all waiting for it guys!!

sweet idea cant wait for it

Any more updates on progress or a release date on this?

Looking forward to this! 

Awaiting launch

Will it be necessary to use a pool at launch, or will the client be sufficient for a little while?

yes it does sir. it cuts the growth of tumors nearly in half also just by ingesting this great substance.

happy tokins

Thanks for the update!
Is there another forum or venue where Curecoin is discussed more frequently?

As a Registered Nurse, pool op and coder I am extremely interested in this coin.
I just do not see premining as a good idea. It makes me uncomfortable as I could just set up f@h for a client and make more coins faster.

where is the discussion about how the current spec actually works?  and the source code

Its hard to express in few words the work that has gone into CureCoin. To make a few updates to the original post:

CureCoin already has 3 SHA mining pools ready and waiting for launch time. Plus many other requests from other pool makers for permission to make a CC pool when it launches, of course they were are told they are welcome to make their own pools. So expect many pool to be available. If you are a pool OP and are just reading up on the news, you are all welcome to make your own pool, no need to ask permission.

As for the launch ready pools, we have a stellar line up of experienced pool ops. Including Crypto-Expert and Dyoungii ( Dencoinpools). Both of them ran a test run on a sample curecoin code for around a week or two, with the whole team involved tossing hashing power at it, a few devs tried block chain attacks during the test and found no problems.

Both of the above pool makers have gone out of their way to upgrade the security on their pools for the upcoming launch.

As for the base code mintage and maxcoins of the coin... many spreadsheets lay across the dev teams screens with different models many of which have been tested and torture tested in private testing. The end numbers of coins minted through SHA mining and Folding has been reviewed and replaced countless times.  I believe that model has been created that will keep everyone involved happy about the project.

Many other member of the crypto community including devs and pool makers have contributed to the overall work of CureCoin. One person being a CureCoin supporter is Vorksholk. As you see he was able to cover an update for us while there was, circumstances. Thanks for that!

And to cover one last item, the CureCoin Foundation is indeed being worked on with a CPA and lawyer. The foundation will ensure that CureCoin adheres to its goals. It will be a non profit foundation so any donations will be tax deductible  .

The final coin build is being tested right now, running for about 30 hours now and a testnet built between a couple devs. Its running nice and smooth.  Well, hopefully you enjoyed reading my update 

Cheers

Hey guys! So the 10% coins doesn't go to founders per-se, it's a premine that's used to fund services and such, however that 10% is being drastically reduced, likely to somewhere around 4%. A good chunk of this 10% was initially going to cover massive hardware giveaways to the community and similar outreach programs as well as charitable causes, but due to worries about a 10% 'dev-fund' causing backlash in the community, we are taking most of those elements out or trimming them down. The dev fund will still serve good purposes, however they will be more central to the project.

why would i use this over gridcoin?

10% of all coins to the founders? thats bullshit.

was 10% but i see now they are lowering this amount which is good news and will create a lot less lash back. Let's hope the launch is 100% fair and goes to plan, if so will be the coin to take on BTC.

reserve.

when is the launch date?

and how much pre-mined?

I already have 265107 points in the Folding@Home project. What does that earn me?

The team and I are working on the final specs of the official coin at this very moment. We are taking a 20 minute dinner break then getting back to work.

Not sure if it has been mentioned but CureCoin plans on being a long term coin. Mintage will last for at least 30 years.

We have concluded that there is more then enough power lined up and ready to fold away for curecoins. IF the FAH servers reach peak cap we may temporarily reduce the folding payout to let FAH servers do more upgrades. Hopefully the new GPU AS (Assignment Server for gpu WU) will serve work units fast enough to feed the gpu power of the community. With these things in mind, Im excited to see what launch is going to bring. 

Good news. Waiting for it couple of months now
