Topic: List of coins with original code (Read 1260 times)

I don't have any list of coins with original code, but i think right now ethereum classic is one of many coins with original code after ethereum ETH been done hard fork because of DAO stolen,  personality i traded ethereum classic ETC and i don't collect them or building projects on it. ETH and ETC are good places for increasing bitcoins.

It has a lot of features, some similar to NXT in many ways, but better in some key areas, like asset:asset trading, decentralised web, automated transactions between blockchains etc  the total lack of input from the creator makes Qora an open canvas for anybody and everybody, so there's no need to ask anyone for permission. That obviously makes some things more difficult, but Qora IS 100% decentralised, unlike many other coins which often rely on the continued input from a leader:dictator. I like NXT a lot, but it's not decentralised as the lead dev controls everything (I think jean-luc is doing a good job so far, but nobody else can influence NXT development much, and if he left NXT would fold quickly most likely). Most alts are centralised around a few critical people, Qora isn't, so that makes it a potential black swan, although I prefer to think of qora as a crypto cockroach that can survive almost anything now.


Ed25519 DSA to verify and sign messages.
5 minute block time depending on the network activity.
Retargeting every 10 blocks.
Deterministic and Password protected wallets that can be recovered/generated from seeds.
New Proof-of-Stake algorithm.
A REST API to directly communicate with the client.
Naming Service: allows the user to register a key-value pair which can be used for various purposes (URLS, addresses, …).
This Naming Service will also include an exchange where users can buy and sell keys.
Voting System: Allows voting inside the client to make community decisions such as which feature will be implemented next.
Arbitrary Transactions: a simple feature which allows users to send any payload they want over the network.
This can be used by third-parties to build additional features on top of Qora (chat, ...).
Assets: assets with asset/asset trading pairs.
Encrypted Messenger: messages are encrypted standard AES256.
Dezentralized Web: decentralized Web.
Social Network: decentralized Social Network.
Automated Transactions: http://ciyam.org/at/

add decred and xcn kryptonite which at that time was with mini block chain features, spreadcoin coin also some nice features removing the need of a pool

I just realised that mapofcoins.com project is over. They had lots coins listed and from where they forked. https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-map-of-coins-the-history-of-cryptocurrency-wwwmapofcoinscom-448601   maybe you can find some info from those peps.

I think Lisk and Rise have same code. But now, rise developer writing their code

You make Qora sound interesting. What does it have that makes it stand out?

Sorry but I don't agree with this statement. If you look at software development in general, it is completely normal to build on top of foundations made by others. This is the basis of the entire open source movement. It is the reason permissive licenses exist to allow for reuse under various circumstances. Take a more concrete example - many games that are made by AAA publishers now use an engine and framework from one of the big Engine houses like Unity or Unreal. Would you characterise this as stealing the code of the original engines? Of course not.

I'm sure there are some copy and paste coins that do nothing more than change a few magic values and names. But there are many that introduce new algos and new mechanisms on top of the foundations shared by the Bitcoin team. I don't think it's particularly valuable to differentiate which coins are coded from scratch (if indeed any are - I'm dubious of this) from those who use open source permissively licenced code and build on top of it.

Also WBB - Wildbeastblock? https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-wild-beast-block-wbb-on-1extrade-no-premine-honest-the-wild-one-952619
Lithium - not launched yet claims to have 100% new source code https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/--1717241

Just a couple I've come across recently.

Yeah, decred looks like original new code too

The original dev was a genius coder, but didn't care about anything like community development or marketing. He left a long time ago, other people have kept qora going since then. Most of the original 130 ico investors thought they were sitting on another NXT that would reach 100M USD marketcap and make them all rich within a few months of the launch in may 2014, some deliberately tried to pump price to over 100 sats with a 'we wont sell for under 100 sats' campaign ... it all ended badly, many early buyers got burnt and left. The distribution is good now imo. The tech is definitely A-grade though, and with the dev long gone it's 100% decentralised and leaderless, so a potential black swan, and cheap as chips still.

Yes hmmmm its called opensource; and its kinda the whole point.

three further points.

1) I've not seen any 'original code' types that do what btc was designed to do better then btc.

2) I've seen a few copy paste types that certainly do better then btc was designed to do.

3) plenty of the copy paste alts that have been around prior to 2014, have evolved to the point much of the code is far removed from what btc has evolved into (which again is kinda the point to btc code being opensource).

What about decred? Is it in one of those categories above?

Cryptonote based (monero)
NXT based
NEM
Bitshares
Ethereum
eMunie (not launched)
Ripple (XRP)
Sia
zCash
IOTA
Qora
Byteball

Why is that coin worth nearly nothing? I often hear it was an original code that was capable of some outstanding things?

Yey! I have caught a big liar.    



I quite agree with this.



Sasha was making waves be a bad project.

Some of the most innovative projects use a bog standard coin. Coval will just use the Counterparty chain but the platform itself is far more developed than any new coded chain.


Isn't that the whole point of these new coins, NEM, LiSK, WAVE etc to be a base for innovative projects build on top of them. My point is don't just look at new chains as innovation, it's too blinkered. Do we even need all these supposedly innovative platforms anyway?

Qora

I think that he is more inerested in the actually used, matured, and propagated original code projects. ByteCoin is not that famous regarding Monero, and the fame level of a coin can be a good indicator of the code maturity, look at Ethereum, the popularity of the project is so high that they developped the blockchain in nearly all the possible languages ( machine languages ), now when you want to download the Ethereum blockchain you have to choose between eth and geth, and then you have to choose wether to use the JAVA, CPP, JS, GO ....

I believe the most revolutionary and distinct code was that of ByteCoin, which started the use of CryptoNote. Monero has vastly improved this code.

don't listen this guy ...

You can check NXT, LISK, RISE, WAVE, even they are similar the codes can differe highly between them.
Check nexus.
check SlimCoin, proof of burn
check maidsafe
check ethereum ( not sure about them, it is a true mess there )
For the others i am not sure, they usually fork a normal coin, and use it with "new" platform, the actual coins use projects, and generally it is "decentralised exchange" or "decentralised assets management" and even " decentralised ads platform", so everything is decentralised, but they comme from the 1 website, 1 team .... not so decentralised.
It is up to you.
