Would be great to have another PoC coin.

Of course he can be trusted, he's a professionally trained cryptographer with a strong background in topics related to cryptocurrencies: https://iohk.io/team/peter-gazi/ . We are considering putting more research behind spacemint to explore a new CC based on it.

never heard about Spacemint ? sounds interesting
but, can you show me the site link or maybe the announcement thread about this

All they have is an old white paper https://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://eprint.iacr.org/2015/528.pdf&ved=0ahUKEwiAmI3M_-TUAhXr34MKHcYTAgsQFggdMAA&usg=AFQjCNEdEifO-7u1PMuynVLOpjjagB5XbA

LOL, I had to go look this up myself. I shit a brick when when I heard proof of space, I assumed you guys meant physical space, I see now you are talking about memory capacity. There were a few old alts that had physical metrics in the mining (Solarcoin for example), I thought this was that Wink for anyone else who is clueless about Proof of Space:

Quote from: Reddit
ELI-5: Instead of Proof of Work (CPU calculations) or Proof of Stake (coins possession), the paper introduces Proof Of Space (HDD space owned).

What consequences or advantages it gives - need to read the paper.

Although I like PoS better - enough wasting planet's resources.

This would actually be fun to mine Smiley

Well the guy who did spacemint does work for me Smiley

The actual lead developer of Spacemint is with you where? At IOHK? Is he also working on Ethereum Classic?

@xxmetalmartyrxx. If you want a proof of space cryptocoin then you have to wait. I heard the creator of Bittorrent is making one based on proof of space and proof of time. They say it will be more efficient and would waste less resources versus all the energy wasted in proof of work.

Does that guy who worked for you can be trusted? Do you have any links to spacemint? Couldn't get a single link from google search.

Is there any upcoming POS or POC coins? I know Burstcoin exists, and we got Storj and SIA that kind of fall into the POS category, but are there any true POC/S coins on the horizon? I'm mining Burst right now, and it's just frustrating with all the exploits coming up, like pajeet and the blockchain randomly award blocks to people with longer deadlines etc... I was reading about a coin called SpaceMint, but it looks like there hasn't been any news on it in a couple years.
