I bet you someone comes up with a fee-less POW based chain that doesn't centralise the mining. That'll be our little contest.

This sounds the same as someone coming up with a perpetual motion machine. "fee-less POW" probably breaks some fundamental laws of physics. I can't even finish an IQ test and see these things as obvious, cmon now. Maybe try again in a couple 100 years and we may have some mind blowing stuff which allows for very reduced fees at big volume transactions without compromising security and decentralization but certainly not "fee-less".

Fee as in financial fee.. no perpetual motion required, users will obviously have to put something in (probably POW.. who knows.. maybe user based POCW)

T.E.T.O. (^^ above) has a fee-less POW based chain (DAG) that doesn't centralise the mining (AND no coordinator). It has it's particular issues ( seem like generic DAG issues ).. but it's pretty close. (Congrats to Monstererer2! for coming up with an original design)

IOTA has no fees, doesn't centralise the mining, and almost works, but they have the Coordinator issue.

2 down.. and only an infinite number of different fee-less blockchain algos still to go..

..

It won't take 100 years to crack this nut

ps - I admit I am also working on a coin (fee-less) - aren't we all !? (win or lose - It's just too much fun)

Im not discouraging anyone to stop trying. However, remember that something only works when it's worth several billion dollars over a span of 10+ years, can handle state-sponsored attacks and so on.

I would like to see these alts in the #1 spot taking all the heat. #1 spot = gets the most attacks by hackers and attackers all over the world. Ultimate street creed if you fuck up the #1 crypto, so you must be prepared for that.

Every post from @anunymint apparently was deleted. The thread is now very difficult to understand because a significant portion of the discussion is missing.

What happened?

anyway there is an archive of his posts here:
