It's been all over reddit.com/r/ethereum and reddit.com/r/ethtrader.

See posts on reddit from 21 days ago:

He also posted on bitcointalk.org on february 6th, see below.

Since I love the idea of standardized ERC20 tokens but I hate the ICO distribution model, I developed a reference implementation for a standard Ethereum token that can be mined using Proof of Work via a smart contract.  This way, we can return to the days when a new blockchain asset is simply mined.  I also see this as more important as Ethereum moves away from Proof of Work and leaves a void for GPUs and mining rigs everywhere.  Instead of PoW mining ether itself, the tokens can be mined.
