Examining the Wavi code further .... this is obviously a fork of Dash.
The same code I note above .... right down to the comments ... is in the Dash code.
The only change the Wavi developer seems to have made is to the max block reward (reduced from 500 to 50).
It curious that a coin designed to be long term CPU-only so quickly exits what is referred to as the "CPU mining era".
It would be interesting to hear from the dev regarding this design decision.
Agreed on it being a Dash fork, I noticed that a couple weeks ago when I was researching WAVI deeply.
Has anybody heard from the dev? I searched his profile on btctalk and github and there isn't much for contributions lately. Since April 10th, and that was for a yescrypt16 thread. WAVI has so much potential, I just hope the dev is dedicated to the project.
