about Developer Fee

https://medium.com/@toni.lukkaroinen/consensus-level-developer-fee-2e4a16e26280

In the ever-evolving landscape of cryptocurrencies, the quest for a leveled playing field has led to innovations like ASIC resistance, aimed at preventing monopolization by specialized, expensive hardware. Hoosat Network stands at the forefront of this movement, leveraging its unique Hoohash algorithm to ensure that cryptocurrency mining remains accessible to everyone, not just those with deep pockets for ASICs (Application-Specific Integrated Circuits).
Understanding ASIC Resistance

ASICs are designed for specific tasks, like Bitcoin mining, providing unmatched efficiency but at a cost that often excludes small miners or hobbyists. This concentration of mining power can centralize control over a blockchain, potentially compromising its security and decentralization principles. Hoosat Network tackles this issue head-on with its ASIC-resistant approach.

The Hoohash Algorithm: A New Dawn for Fair Mining
The heart of Hoosat Network’s fairness strategy lies in its custom mining algorithm, Hoohash. Unlike algorithms that favor ASICs due to their efficiency in linear computations, Hoohash incorporates non-linear equations and transforms matrix multiplication in ways that creates parallel processing bottleneck —less advantageous to ASICs— . Here’s how it promotes fair mining:

Computational Complexity: By introducing non-linear equations, hoohash ensures that computations cannot be easily optimized for the linear processing paths typical in ASIC designs. This complexity favors general-purpose GPUs, which are more adaptable to varied computational tasks.
Algorithm Updates: The network can evolve its algorithm to stay ahead of potential ASIC optimizations, maintaining a dynamic challenge for would-be ASIC developers and keeping mining accessible to a broader audience.
Impacts on Accessibility

Democratization of Mining: By creating parallel processing bottleneck to reduce the advantage of ASICs, Hoosat Network allows enthusiasts with GPUs to compete effectively. This democratizes mining, enabling participation from individuals worldwide, fostering true decentralization where the participants build up the network.
Cost Efficiency: GPUs, while more expensive than CPUs, are significantly cheaper than ASICs, making entry into mining more feasible for newcomers. This cost efficiency encourages a more diverse mining community.
Sustainability and Fairness: With parallel processing bottleneck causing ASIC resistance, the network avoids the ‘arms race’ of mining hardware upgrades, leading to a more sustainable ecosystem where miners are rewarded based on their contribution rather than their hardware’s cost.
The Broader Implications for Crypto Accessibility

Hoosat Network’s commitment to ASIC resistance through Hoohash not only preserves the integrity of its blockchain but also sets a precedent for how cryptocurrencies can evolve to remain accessible. This approach encourages innovation in mining algorithms, potentially influencing future blockchain designs to prioritize accessibility and fairness.

In conclusion, Hoosat Network’s strategy with Hoohash isn’t just about technological innovation; it’s a philosophical stance on what cryptocurrency should represent: an open, fair, and accessible financial system. By ensuring that mining remains within reach of everyday enthusiasts, Hoosat Network champions a vision where the blockchain’s security and governance are genuinely decentralized, not just theoretically. This move towards ASIC resistance could very well be the blueprint for a more equitable crypto future, where the power of mining lies not in the hands of those with the most resources, but in the collective might of a diverse, global community.

This article encapsulates Hoosat Network’s approach to ASIC resistance, focusing on how it promotes fair mining and accessibility through its innovative Hoohash algorithm, drawing from the essence of information available while emphasizing the broader implications for cryptocurrency accessibility.

HTN Hard Fork to Hoohash
The estimated time to 17,500,000 DAA Score is currently Thu, 26 Sep 2024 14:47:20 GMT. Then we will be forking our blockchain into Hoohash.

In conclusion, Hoosat Network’s commitment to ASIC resistance through the innovative Hoohash algorithm exemplifies a powerful stand for fairness and accessibility in the cryptocurrency landscape. By leveling the playing field and ensuring that mining remains open to everyone, not just those with expensive hardware, Hoosat Network champions true decentralization. Its focus on empowering a global community of miners, rather than centralizing control in the hands of a few, paves the way for a more inclusive and equitable crypto future. The upcoming hard fork to Hoohash represents not just a technical upgrade, but a statement of values — a vision where blockchain remains a tool for everyone.

HTN Stratum Bridge is for HTND 1.0.4 and supports hoosattest prefix when connecting to testnet port of HTN node.

https://github.com/Hoosat-Oy/htn-stratum-bridge/tree/V1.0.0

Hoohash 1.0.3 released
@everyone this version includes changes to HoohashV1 to make it more compatible between CPU and GPU architectures, because of precision problems and changes to matrix multiplication so that a + b * c becomes a + complex_non_linear(b * c), which should take CUDA matrix multiplication advantage away.

I'm going to say that HoohashV1 is now finalized, so GPU and Stratum developers can start working on their implementation without myself hopping to do changes when they circumvent something.

Here is also new Testnet datadir available with blocks on the new finalized Hoohash you can do HTND --testnet --outpeers 2 -a mainnet-node-1.hoosat.fi to get synced with the datadir.

Windows and Linux builds are available in Github:
https://github.com/Hoosat-Oy/HTND/releases/tag/v1.0.3

Hey @everyone, I have just threaded the HTN Golang Miner with Goroutines to get better look at CPU benchmarks. Here you can see much better the effects of Hoohash to parallel computing. The threaded GPU Miner is available in master branch currently. You can set htnminer thread count with -t number or --threads number and it automatically uses max amount of threads reported by your CPU.

From the single core speed of Ryzen 9 3900x you could expect it's max cores to output around 91 Kh/s, but in reality it's outputting third of it. So 24 x Ryzen 9 3900X single core chips would output much more than Ryzen 9 with 24 core chip.

AMD Ryzen 9 3900X 12-Core Processor
CPU Mark: 32630 diff to max in group (0%)
1 core: 3.8 Kh/s
6 core: 18.3 Kh/s
12 core: 26.7 Kh/s
16 core:  27 Kh/s
24 core:  27.1 kh/s

AMD Ryzen 7 3700X 8-Core Processor
CPU Mark: 22550 diff to max in group (-30.9%)
1 core: 2.2 Kh/s
6 core:  13.7 Kh/s
12 core: 26.5 Kh/s
16 core: 30.45 Kh/s

AMD Ryzen 5 3600 6-Core Processor
CPU Mark: 17750 diff to max in group (-45.6%)
1 core: 3.4 Kh/s
6 core: 15.5 Kh/s
12 core: 23.12 Kh/s

🦉 How Hoohash Attacks Parallel Processing.🦉

📈You should know that CPU, GPU, VPU, FPGA, ASIC are all about parallel processing. The underlying hashing algorithm in Hoohash which is Blake3 hash is extremely fast on parallel processing. Now that Blake3 has been implemented on specialized computing units, it excels there thanks to the nature of taking advantage of parallel processing techniques.

💡To level the playing field from those highly specialized parallel processing units I've decided to attack parallel processing with with code that requires sequential processing. Non-linear equations give us this ability since they require sequantial processing and heavy synchronization from the processing unit. This creates bottleneck in the algorithm for highly parallelized systems.

🧾I'm not saying Hoohash linear equations are unimplementable on VPU, FPGA or ASIC. I'm saying it creates disadvantage to hashrate with the bottleneck that is attacking their parallell processing speeds. This directly translates to the fact that advantage of implementing Hoohash on those specialized processing units requires more from the hardware. You won't be seeing devices with 250-400 Gh/s on 100W coming to sale.

🔔Thinking that from 6 core processor to 12 core processor you should expect the hashrate to double right?  NO that's not happening in Hoohash.

AMD Ryzen 5 3600 6-Core Processor ~2.5 Kh/s
AMD Ryzen 7 3700X 8-Core Processor -2 Kh/s
AMD Ryzen 9 3900X 12-Core Processor ~1.7 Kh/s

🤔How are these results even possible? That is against logic of basic computing speeds! We put more processing power to Hoohash and we are losing already 32% of processing power!

Good saturday! Hope to see you in Thu, 26 Sep 2024 14:32:02 GMT!

Attention for The Entity!
@everyone consider this a challenge from me personally to The Entity developers. We can start playing cat and mouse with algorithm implementation time, but The Entitys developers need to eat while i'm keeping them on their toes chasing an non-existent mouse. In Hoosat Network we have now the ability to setup automatic hard and soft forks on daaScore and we can automate hundreds of them for the next 100 years.

Think of this scenario carefully:
We do a Hard Fork for Hoohash.
The so called "Entity" implements Hoohash.
We make new algorithm and the "Entity "implements it again to mess with our hashrate.

What do you feel when I can say that I'm able to build new algorithm once a week for example (I'm not talking about single line code changes.)  and setup daaScores into the node for Hard Forks for years to come.  The design and implementation process for moderately complex algorithm in FPGA and ASIC is about 6 months. As in 6 weeks I could make 3-6 years of developer time costs for you The Entity.

Hoohash V1 attacks parallel processing speeds with non-linear transformations in matrix multiplication. We also have ability to do memory hard functionality and can scale memory requirements in upcoming algorithms if necessary, testing already on possible Hoohash V2.

So please try your hands at Hoohash non-linear floating-point transformations in matrix multiplication, specifically designed to thwart parallel processing. We can make it harder for FPGA/ASIC every time until it can not be implemented on those computing units.

The Entity are you ready to take on the challenge? Do you want to take that risk? Hoosat Network is here to keep GPU mining available. I personally promise that with all of the attacks on Hoosat Network already I'm starting to enjoy this more than ever!

The Entity you can call me when we start this game. You can find my phone number from my company website.

Rabid Mining did a good review of our hard fork.

# 🦉 Developer Fee Allocation Plan: Maximizing Our Project's Growth! 🦉

 Dev excited to share our current plan for utilizing the network wide developer fee coming after the Hard Fork to accelerate the growth and success of our project. Primary goal is to ensure that every aspect is well supported from development to marketing. 

1. Operational Expenses (~10%)

First and foremost the minimum operational expenses will be used once a month from the developer fee. This covers Hosting & Maintenance and Legal & Compliance.

2. Marketing & Community Growth (~40%)

We’ll run targeted campaigns across social media, forums, and other platforms to increase visibility and attract new users to our community. More partnerships will be formed with influencers to expand our reach and bring more value to our ecosystem. We can now continue organizing contests, airdrops, and other incentive programs to boost engagement and participation.

3. Development (~50%)

This is used to cover the development of Hoosat Network, ensuring the safety of our growth is paramount by keeping developers happy. On the side i'm looking to encourage innovation & development by setting up Developer Grants. 

# Final Notes:

This plan is designed to ensure that our project remains competitive, secure, and vibrant. We're committed to transparency and will provide regular updates on how these funds are being used to achieve our goals. Though expect these plans to change as we iterate on very competitive world, these numbers are a goal.

Thank you for your continued support and belief in our project. Together, we’re building something incredible!

 We’re thrilled to announce that the Hoosat Network hard fork is set for September 26, 2024, at 06:41 PM with a DAA Score of 17,500,000. This is a pivotal moment for our community, and we can’t wait to share what’s coming!

We are doing a hard fork to our own algorithm. This announcement gives some time to update all of our nodes. You can do that right now from the source. Exchanges, Pools and Solo miners please do so at your time before the 26th and please ping me in Discord for every possible bug report or help request.

I've decided that even if GPU miners are not ready the Hard Fork will commence. We are in talks with pool and mining software developers about implementation of Hoohash. As such until then we have the nodes own CPU miner.

Hard Fork Details:
Date and Time: September 26, 2024, 06:41 PM
DAA Score: 17,500,000

What the Hard Fork Brings:
Hoohash Algorithm: A cutting-edge algorithm designed to combat parallel processing, enhancing security and making Hoosat more resilient against FPGA/ASIC centralization. The algorithm attacks parallel processing with floating point non-linear equations transforming matrix multiplication. We have also developed multistage block version support for adding more algorithms in future, so FPGA/ASIC developers I invite you to implement Hoohash as soon as you can since we can iterate then further and see when we hit a point that it's unimplementable.
Adjustable Developer Fee: Introducing a network-wide developer fee tied to consensus, defaulting currently to 5%, to fund essential growth and future development. The developer fee is changeable in source code and consensus considers 1% fee the minimum.

So when I look at your dictionary, it's obvious who's an idiot. Tony is an amazing person and he doesn't hide anything from anyone. It's obvious that you're a piece of shit and you're trying to taint everything good.

Idiot developer never tweets. Apparently, I tweeted more than the developer. Finally I said, "Do I own this coin or do you?" Is it Tony or something that blocked me? What the hell, I was tweeting bad things. Damn idiot, am I your employee? In short, nothing good can happen with this jerk called Tony! There is no tzatziki from this coin

  This shit and its shitty dev is still around ?
