What is the likelihood of an algo change, ballpark percentage?  So I know If I want to buy more cpu upgrades or not.  Thanks

We currently have testnet running with Lyra2REv2, devs and pool operators are in agreement with the fork so far. The bottleneck might be exchanges, we are trying to get a hold of them to get ready for a fork.

I wonder why are the devs still stalling with the algorithm change? It has been brought to their attention many times that Scrypt-N is prone to ASIC mining and they dismissed it as FUD. They have been warned many times even before launching the coin. Now, when we got real proof that Titan asics can easily mine Scrypt-N, they still take their time. It makes you wonder which one of the devs has an ASIC...or how many of them

Read above.

If there is a algo switch I have heard that some pools will not switch. 
So if there is a algo switch it sounds like there might be some GRLC Classic.

 

All the pool operators I've talked to support a fork for algorithm change, and don't support the fork for banning coins, as previously stated.

Care to elaborate which pools don't support the algorithm change?

I really wanna support this coin but the scammy smell is not really pleasent
Is it possible to make GRLC truly ASIC resistant or is this project dead?

We're developing and releasing GIP-1 as soon as possible,

please continue all discussion on the new ANN thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2893116.0

Thank you Smiley

What's GIP-1?  are you changing the algo?  If keeping it the same I'm going to do another CPU upgrade for a 3rd rig.

Correct, it's a change of algorithm. Quote from our released statement (https://medium.com/@retosen.dev/an-explanation-3119e44407ba) here:

Quote
As a result I am developing the first Garlicoin Improvement Proposal (GIP). GIP-1 is currently being drafted and the implementation is being worked out — should the community show support for it, we as developers will do everything in our power to activate GIP-1 on the network.
GIP-1 will, put simply, be a hard fork to a new Proof of Work algorithm. There is a high possibility this will be Lyra2REv2, however other interesting developments in ASIC resistant proof of work — such as Ravencoin — could be implemented.

6. What is Garlicoin?

Garlicoin is a cryptographic, transactional, and secure virtual currency, similar to Bitcoin and Litecoin.
By nature, this was started as not only a meme-currency, but also a community-driven currency as well.

Birth of Garlicoin:
Although it looks like a joke at first glance, it’s a real currency that was built with a community focus.
We wanted to give the community a chance to be a part of a cryptocurrency’s development from A to Z.
No other cryptocurrency has ever accomplished this pre-launch on a scale that we have.
We’ve had the opportunity to pool suggestions from over 100,000 users allowing us to hear concerns,
suggestions, and develop around these.

Garlicoin was built on the basis of three selling points, in order of importance:

1. A fun, light-hearted way to introduce and educate a new demographic
to these uncharted waters that we call “Cryptocurrency”
2. ASIC resistance
3. Scalability



7. Garlicoin Technical Details

Github Repo: https://github.com/GarlicoinOrg/Garlicoin

Max coin supply: 69 million

Block time: Every 40 seconds

Starting block reward: 50 GRLC

Proof of work: Scrypt-adaptive-N (ASIC resistant)

Difficulty Adjustment: Dark Gravity Wave (alters difficulty every block for more regular block times)

Segwit enabled

If you guys haven't seen, we released a statement yesterday regarding all the issues addressed in this thread

Why this old and abandoned Lyra2REv2? Look at Lyra2Z - it 4 times more energy efficient and support zero knowledge protoco议定书.

We are open to suggestions and will consider this Smiley

>THERE WILL BE NO FORK TO BAN THE COINS.
>NOTE: THIS PROPOSED HARD FORK WOULD NOT RISK YOUR FUNDS — IT MAY NOT EVEN BE ACTIVATED

Why not just couple the two into a single hardfork? When you go to change the algorithm just denote bad transaction flags to the addresses.

> After talking with pool operators, they have made it clear they will not support a fork to ban the 40k.

Weren't some of the pool devs apart of the original dev team? So it would make sense that they don't want a hardfork if they were the ones with the coins?

Our consensus is to not create an explicit fork for just the reason of banning the coins. Coupling the implementation of the algorithm and banning all those coins is possible but there are reasons against doing so because it sets a bad precedent and it might cheat paying users if those coins make it to an exchange.

I also want to make it clear that no pool owners are a part of the development team.
