Sometimes it's good to just start fresh, I've made four separate discoveries so far  Grin.

I'm sorry, but I've got to agree with the trolls here: Posts like this one contain no useful information and only create the impression that the dev is trying to pump their own coin. So if you're unwilling to share anything of substance, it might be better not to post on the development progress at all.

Did I mention that I hate those teaser-based marketing strategies?

I was waiting for someone to ask what I discovered... Basically, something called masternode input age based quorum layering. Quorums are created using the age of the masternodes, 25% of the quorums are more than 1.5 years old, the next 25% is more than 1 year old, the next 25% is more than 6 months old, then the final 25% is any masternode that is newer than that. It guarantees, you can't control a quorum by just buying coins from an exchange to make new masternodes, there will always be masternodes that are really, really old.

okay i gotta ask : "masternode input age based quorum layering", is that one of four discoveries you made ? if the answer is yes i think you will know my next question  Wink

Yes. I also figured out how to implement user/masternode vote blinding, which will allow literally everyone to remain semi-anonymous on the network. Imagine you can vote privately on budgets. 3 and 4 are related to programming, the evolution platform is really nice to work with

All good, one question regarding the use of MN age in selection of quorums.  Will they also still be selected from the hash?  I hope you can do both because I like the randomness of that.  If you can select with both requirements, that's be impossible to game IMO Smiley

Exactly. Instead of using the hash to build the quorum at all once, you do it in four steps, by age. It's still deterministic.
