Day 2. Welcome! (part II)http://oi62.tinypic.com/vnz8m9.jpgKimocoin (KMC) fork of Litecoin. KMC uses Scrypt-n-Adaptive and Scrypt-ASIC-Resistant. Also KMC uses POW and Kimoto Gravity Well.
So the devs declare that block time is 60 sec and KMC are produced by only CPU-mining.
Total 15 bln KMC and 1% was premined. Kimocoin is based on strong philosophy and supports study careers. The devs are Italian students and they are very passionate about the project. KMC was launched on April and has the KimoShop where you can buy real products already.
Features: security, only CPU-mining, apps to Windows, Linux and MAC, interesting devs.
http://oi60.tinypic.com/2hhdiqg.jpgMintcoin (MINT) fork of Novacoin. MINT uses Scrypt.
At first MINT used hybrid POW+POS, but now MINT is pure POS. It seems to me that pure POS is speculative technology, so I will see how this community will mine, trade and use (!) MINT.
Total 70 bln and 1% was premined. The devs declared that MINT is energy efficient. MINT is very discussed and popular (about 650p. in off-thread). Its all very well but I have a several questions. How will the devs use premined MINT? They say nothing about this, this is very strange and alarming. What connects the exchange MintPal
www.mintpal.com with MINT? Exchange and coin were launched at the same time. I hope MINT isnt purely speculative.
Features: 30 sec block time, apps to Windows, Linux and MAC, native wallet, very strong marketing and community.
So this is the end of my review. Tomorrow I will tell you about their installations and wallets.
See you here!
