Please explain why you would like to see this coin added to the exchange:

give your personal reason

If this coin has any significant innovations over other coins, please elaborate on them here:


Hybridized proof-of-work proof-of-stake consensus system to strike a balance between miners and voters and create a more robust notion of consensus
 
Blake-256 hashing algorithm – not vulnerable to many of the numerous security issues facing Merkle-Damgård construction-based hashing algorithms such as SHA-256
 
secp256k1 signature scheme for ease of integration into existing software or Ed25519/secp256k1-Schnorr to take advantage of Schnorr signatures and their features
 
Written entirely in Go using a modular, well-documented, and tested codebase for long-term maintainability


Hope this helps Smiley
