This is a very interesting idea, do you have any code ready for it? Also when are you going to be releasing everything?


but we should more information about this coin/

thanks so much

If you are actually that interested, the website "slimcoin.org" has more information.

I have also written a white paper (semi-technical document) on exactly how the new designs implemented in Slimcoin work. I will have that up in the following week.

i am that interested so i did first thing i noticed is you've abbreviated it as SMC but smartcoin uses that, how about SLM?

Can you give us more informations about some kind of launch date or can you tell us how you will proceed for the launch of the money, number of coin, premine, etc ... If it is not precisily, give us some outlines.

Interesting concept.

It's good to see that there are developers out there looking to try new things, instead of re-hashing the same old algos over and again. I

and there is no ipo and no premine..

hope it has a wonderful future.

miners are not gonna like it... so let's all use a 386 computer if CPC464 won't work! :p

All it requires is a few SHA256 hashes every ~90 seconds, which practically any machine can handle.

It could be mined by a very weak computer, it is not intensive at all. The only problem with Arduino and also Raspberry Pi mining is that they do not have an x86 chip set and the code that I have currently is for x86. That is not to say it could not be ported over; I used the Raspberry Pi as an example of how little resource would be needed.

I guess you could even run it on an OpenWRT router... ain't it? this could be a reason to revive lots of old devices i have laying around doing nothing but collecting dust Cheesy Also, it opens up the floodgates to Mips and ARM mining... interesting

I'm deeply interested in this one! Could it even be mined by a PIC or an Arduino? It would rock the crypto world if you can pull this one, everyone could have miners and nodes up 24/7.

The Slimcoin code is ready, only that I am doing extensive testing since I want a smooth launch. I plan on releasing it most likely in mid-May. The reason it can be mined (through proof-of-burn) with a Raspberry Pi is because in proof-of-burn, faster hardware offers no advantage over others.

You guys can find a more detailed explanation of how proof-of-burn is able to achieve this under the "How does Proof of Burn work?" article on Slimcoin's website:
https://slimcoin.org/index.php/en/resources-en/proof-of-burn

i didn't know they'd moved Christmas to mid May   Cheesy

getting more interested with every tidbit of info

Through Proof-of-Burn, no matter how fast of a computer one has, effectively, they could do the same burn mining with a Rasberry Pi and achieve the same result.

If even Rasperberry Pi can mine Slimcoin, we can imagine how hackers with their botnets will dominate hashrate of this coin. Nah.
