Looks like I posted in the wrong thread, so here again:

Hello PRISMA team,

I ve seen this idea before and am very anxious to see this become a reality and wish you good luck.

However, could you clarify your connection to swirlds.com? Just by looking at this, you can see that the ideas are similar:

http://www.swirlds.com/whitepapers/

The reason why I'm asking is, that is extremely obvious, where the ideas come from. Yet, I haven't found any mention or credit, which concerns me.

Are members of your team somehow affiliated with swirlds.com?

Are you not affiliated, but decided to use swirlds technology for your project? In this case, you should absolutely point towards the original sources.

Oh, and the "whitepaper" link of your Ann throws a 404 error.

Regards

We are not affiliated with Swirlds in any way. We clearly says that its based on a hashgraph. We will not use the hashgraph consensus algorithm, but rather our own alternative version of it, and can therefore not be called a hashgraph anymore. All DAG based currencies share the same properties (similar to a blockchain where all share the same basic ideas), you will find out if you read other white papers and study its background, small changes makes it unique. White paper is offline until we have updated it properly, we removed it from top post until further notice thx.
