Ok starting a project thread to discuss the creation of a alt coin specifically to increase volume and use in india.

phases to the project

Phase 1
Discuss the properties of the altcoin.
Discuss problem and solutions.
Implement Solution to check viability.
Discuss and look into impact and viability
Whitepaper release

Phase 2
Development
Testing

Phase 3
add support systems. pools, Block Explorer, Exchanges, backup nodes, newbie guide
add services Faucet, giveaways, games.

Phase 4
logo design, wiki, webpage.
IRC channel

Phase 5
Release


I would like to see the following things by launch time
1. Youtube / Reddit tipper bots
2. A private mining pool restricted only to indian/asian ips
3. An existing exchange like cryptsy / An open source exchange( Eg: Buttercoin exchange - which we can host ourselves) to list this coin.
4. A merchant accepting this coin ( Highkart - what do you say ? )

3. - I do believe that we request coins-e and cryptsy. The open source Buttercoin code is buggy and can't be used reliably.
4. - I did ask him about alt coins. He has a problem getting a processor to use alt coins.

We can even use Momentum algo like in protoshares- that way its more cpu friendly than scrypt - though even it has a gpu miner released but not much adv over the cpu
not much alt-cryptos are under this algo - to be accurate only 1. but don't know for sure
Invictus Inovation's have much varying and interesting ideas - maybe we can start from there

I looked at it, would it not invite botnets like crazy?

Botnets is a big problem for CPU algo. So I suggest Scrypt Adaptive N-factor algo which is ASIC proof (will be for atleast few more years).

See the following infographic from Symantec about botnets effect.

Here The block reward gets reduced by 10% every 60 days(2months) - This give a gradual decrease in the supply and doesn't create any sudden stir in the market.

Scenario 3 - Approximate Money supply - 345million

block time : 60sec
blocks per day : 1440
Block Reward : 400

Total Money Supply:
1 year : ~161.93million (Blk.Rwd - 236.196)
2 years: ~247.99million (Blk.Rwd - 125.524)
10 years: ~344.97 million (Blk.Rwd - 0.798)
20 years: ~345.59 million (Blk Rwd - 0.001)


Scenario 4 - Approximate Money supply - 1.726 Billion

block time : 60sec
blocks per day : 1440
Block Reward : 2000

Total Money Supply:
1 year : ~809.66 million (Blk.Rwd - 1180.98)
2 years: ~1.239 billion (Blk.Rwd - 627.621)
10 years: ~1.724 billion (Blk.Rwd - 3.993)
20 years: ~1.728 billion (Blk Rwd - 0.007)

i've these ideas inspired by the protoshares.

I've also taken the view of Benson about the total pop of the 7 countries
Total Population: 1726890000
Total Families : 345378000

The block reward gets reduced by 5% every 60 days(2months) - This give a gradual decrease in the supply and doesn't create any sudden stir in the market.

Scenario 1 - Approximate Money supply - 345million

block time : 30sec
blocks per day : 2880
Block Reward : 166.6

Total Money Supply:
1 year : ~100million
2 years: ~165million
10 years: ~330 million (Blk.Rwd - 8.079)
20 years: ~344.5 million (Blk Rwd - 0.372)
30 years: ~345 million (Blk Rwd - 0.017)


Scenario 2 - Approximate Money supply - 1.726 Billion

block time : 30sec
blocks per day : 2880
Block Reward : 833

Total Money Supply:
1 year : ~502 million
2 years: ~826 million
10 years: ~1.650 billion (Blk.Rwd - 40.395)
20 years: ~1.723 billion (Blk Rwd - 1.861)
30 years: ~1.726 billion (Blk Rwd - 0.085)

Benson would  you want to  be on the Coding  part , i think  even  Mahin  would  want to  do that too.

I can help with bits of the ecosystem as well like faucet, explorer, etc..

of-course i"m in but i'm not in the coding side. any other part i can help.
I was in the discussions of day1 but after that i don't know what all advances you had . any news? when is the next discussion about this?
I have come up with new ideas for the numbers

All the  discussion  was  done on Friday, weekends was a  bit  to bussy for me but  we  had all decided to  get our own spec, and  post it  so that we  chose  which one  would be better  to go  with.

Freenode IRC is  facing a  DDOS attack so  its kind a  unstable  should be  ok tonight. i hope.

I will submit my  specs  tomorrow. https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/project-nemesis-spec-and-alog-submission-444656

Do share the numbers. That is not a part that I want to get into unless necessary.

I don't know much about all this but I have read about scrypt-jane algo (Yacoin and microcoin use it) which uses something called nfactor which increases memory req every few weeks or months making it difficult to mine as time goes by. this makes it difficult even for GPUs to mine it like crazy let alone ASICs.

I think going for scrypt algo isn't a great idea because they are just too much of scrypt algo coins..

So it would be better to go Blake-256 or Skeincin sha3 or any other which is cpu and gpu friendly....

An India only coin first then release to other countries in the future?
Think it will help to avoid some legal issues?

Ok. Now! i might be deviating from the initial idea... what about a coin exclusive for BRIC - the name is cool

At the moment we can use the #taproom as the main channel for discussion.

Will keep this thread updated with every new development.

This will be a completely decentralized project, every one is invited to contribute, any thing from skill, advice, solutions, servers and workspace, time, or even the occasional troll  Smiley


in a few days we can come up with a  working model on how the coin should look like.



So, what is the purpose ? PROFIT ? Wink

Why not use Scrypt-jane ? , all the new coins are adopting it , and it will be Scrypt ASIC proof against the upcoming Chinese Scrypt ASICS that will be launched in upcoming months and some of them are even functional.

India- 1.25Billion
Srilanka- 21million
Nepal-27.5million
Pakistan-180million
Indonesia-247million
Mauritius-1.3million
Seychelles-90000

OK  Undecided Thats not much. only less than 2 billion

2100000
2750000
18000000
24700000
1300000
90000

1298940000 total Pop
259788000 Total Coins - Pop/5
- Why 5? Average Indian family size.

Taking india as it is a large part of the demographic.

you made a mistake. millions should have a additional zero

The total comes to 1,726,890,000


Ughh, you are right.
