we have a few more details to decide on. Now the website is up and running thanks to a wonderful contribution we should decide where AGA should go in terms of algo.

- Do we stay with scrypt ?
- If yes, do we go for a hybrid POW/POS version ?
- Should we consider an alternative algo like neoscrypt ?
- Do we want to implement masternodes at some point ?

Any suggestions are welcome.

I'm not sure about the benefits of neoscrypt over scrypt. What is the difference in plain English? I personally like POS but POW only works for me too. Could you explain a bit how a masternode would work?

Hello Spekske,

Great work by all you guys so far, i'm just a passenger.  Smiley

- Depending on the algo, does anyone prefer ASIC's or GPU's.
  I know some people don't like ASIC's, I personally have both, so don't mind any algo.
- I enjoy POW.
- Masternodes in the future are good for stability and commitment, see (DASH).

+ For the coders out there, updated wallets will be needed.
+ New White Paper, or roadmap, and purpose for the coin. (Tie into Real Amiga/OS)
+ When re-launched, need to evangelize.

Regards,
Tim

I don't mine a lot myself, I'm more of an investor Smiley When I do mine, I use cpu only. If we let ASICs in we might loose the possibility of solo-mining in AROS x86, but perhaps it's inevitable. As it is now someone might step in with a lot of hashpower and drive difficulty up to the moon, security concerns is another consideration. So no, I don't have a preference when it comes to ASIC or GPU.
