Re: [ANN][RIC] Riecoin: constellations POW *CPU* HARD FORK successful, world record
gatra, just to add a crazy idea... 
Would it be possible to add a couple of other AUX-POW algorithms (like say sha and scrypt) with very low rewards and use a multi-algo (Myriad) approach? Wouldn't this keep these kinds of shenanigans from causing so many issues?

Nice crazy idea might work!
Yes, it would help. I'll think about it because it has its dangers too: if it's low reward then it will not be mined a lot and will have low diff... in general a new algo means a new attack vector. Maybe we could do it with merged mining.
Sorry, yes, AUX-POW means merged mining... doesn't cost the miner any additional hashrate, so diffs tend to be generally higher.
