WhaleCoinhttps://whalecoin.org/images/whale.pngAbstractWe describe a simple mined cryptographic blockchain which
is designed to power a unique decentralized social network. The social
network supports several types of roles and notably the Whale role
which is given to any user who holds at least 1,000 tokens. The total
number of Whales on this network will always be limited and Whales
will have the power to influence how blockchain rewards are distributed.
An incentive structure will be designed so that Followers will attempt
to gain approval from Whales who will then influence the blockchain to
send them rewards.

Miners send mined coins to a smart contract which pays for the Development Fund and Follower Rewards.

Custom Difficulty Adjustment Algorithm: "Ahab"WhaleCoin created a new hyper aggressive difficulty adjustment algorithm, which adjusts the difficulty of every block by +/-10% of the previous block based on whether the last block occurred faster or slower than the target time (20 seconds), meaning the difficulty can adjust exponentially if necessary. This should help protect the chain from 51% mining attacks.
