Topic: [YAC]: YaCoin Information Thread - page 5. (Read 20782 times)
I thought yacoin.com is being worked on by pocopoco, perhaps he wanted it to be finished before launch, and thats why the launch got delayed. But this is just speculation on my part.
very nice summary of YAC related info, I will be watching
PS. The logo is awesome

I wanted to put together this info thread on YaCoin to help others learn about it and centralize all info on it in one place. Please feel free to reply to it and suggest anything that could be added or modified. I've modeled this page after the LiteCoin information thread here.

The [YAC] YaCoin Information Thread
What Makes YaCoin different than other AltCoins?
* Currently the only CPUMined coin (with all other altcoins, CPUMining has become unprofitable as GPUs, FPGAs and/or ASICs can do it much more efficiently.
* Means that anyone can get involved with mining YAcoins. You don't need a fancy AMD video card, and a complex miner program with a lot of technical know-how
* This may also mean that the YaCoin coin distribution is and/or will be more widespread, and thus more democratic (this is speculation at this point)
* Also means that YaCoin could see a larger, more sustainable network hashrate, as miners can co-mine it along with GPU-based coins
* PoS and PoW (long-term power efficiency)
* Ultra-fast confirmations
* A reasonably good developer (pacopaco) and an enthusiastic community
The creator of yacoin (pocopoco) states the following about any potential move of GPUs over to mine YaCoin:
"it is possible to develop OpenCl or cuda miner for scrypt(N, 1, 1). But the CPU / GPU hashrate difference will be less than 10 times and will decrease over time. So GPU's contribution into miner's total hashrate (even in case somebody will implement this) will be like one or two additional CPU cores. This is because scrypt will need more and more fast random access memory with N increased." (Source)
