I have created a Flag type 1 against aishabinteali: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;flag=1831
Asking for support.
Topic: [SCAM] StoneCoin - plagiarism, stolen content, possible malware... (Read 187 times)
Their domain is for sale.
What happened: StoneCoin's ANN is almost completely plagiarism off Gapcoin
StoneCoin ANN: [ANN] StoneCoin (NEW ALGORITM) (double speed mining) Fair launch
Archive: http://archive.is/pqWkZ
Announced by: aishabinteali
Flag (type 1): https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;flag=1831
Website: stonecoin.org (in developing)
Specifications:
PoW/New algo: custom, prime gaps
Block target time 10 seconds
Block reward proportional to the current difficulty
Block reward halving every 420000
Cap: about 10 - 30 million coins
Difficulty adjusts every block and increases logarithmic (it will probably take years to get to 50)
A newly developed miner that miners any coins with a new algorithm 2 times faster!
Download miner - (link removed)
Fair launch:
StoneCoin was not designed to enrich the early adopters or the coin creators! The more people mine StoneCoin, the more coins per block will be produced. (Coin supply will increase logarithmic with the difficulty, this means it will grow in the beginning, but later, it won't change much.)
There won't be any premine!
To avoid instamine, the reward of the first 1152 blocks (about 48 hours) will increase quadratically to its absolute value: the current difficulty. Block reward will be 1/1152^2 * blockheight^2 * difficulty for the first 1152 blocks. This should guarantee that the difficulty is stable until the blocks yield a worthwhile amount of coins.
Source code will be available before launch (excluding the PoW function), so everyone can setup their own environment, compile the software, and check if everything works.
