You will just need to pay a small transaction fee based on the sized of your input data.

A quick update:

Many users have been asking for more information about susucoin. Thereore, we have now opened an official wiki page for susucoin. Please visit here:

Some people have asked who the cartoon character is. Her name is Susuko. You can find information about Susuko here:

We have begun archiving speech the past few days and will be rolling out more integration and an easy-to-use API soon.

The first 512kb OPT_RETURN transaction has been mined earlier:

The message contained within is:
```Welcome to Susucoin data storage. This is one of the first messages, if not the first one, that is 512 bytes long. Remember, that whatever you put here, stays forever! Please keep that in mind. This message was formed to prove, that there will be no fork needed to include such long messages in the blockchain, because those messages aren't invalid, they are just non-standard. Will 512 be enough,though? Will SUMO be such a good form of compression, that it will suffice? Let's hope so! --Anonymous Western Anon```

We are improving the blockchain explorer to allow native message viewing capabilities, but its still under development - will announce here when it is ready.

The SUMO protocol white paper should be published this week with information about how we plan to structure archiving thoughts on the blockchain.

An english-language FAQ is coming soon, along with some more information about our mission and project goals.

Please read the press release from Susucoin's first integration partner: 5ch.net
https://5ch.net/susu/susucoin.html

A press release announcing Susucoin's first partner is coming in the next few hours.

Susucoin's blockchain explorer is live now, mirrored at these two locations:
https://explore.susukino.com/
https://explore.susuco.in/

The 1 block diff regeneration really is working very well and should scale up with growth easily due to the strenghts of the LWMA.

We are currently finishing up the implementation details and specifications of the susucoin blockchain text archiving system, codenamed SUMO. After SUMO is ready, we will be forking susucoin to a 512 byte OPT_RETURN to accommodate the extended functionality provided by SUMO.
Susucoin's official blockchain explorer is coming soon too.

Susucoin network hash per second is now reaching up to 50 TH/s at around block height 745. Lets go susucoin!

SUSUCOIN is live now.

White paper is updated
https://susukino.com/whitepaper.txt

Code and wallets will go live in about 5 minutes.

Susucoin will (re)launch today, June 26, at GMT 1700. The wallets will be made available on the website, and code will be updated on the github at that time.

OK out of hospital now. Will continue with getting Susucoin setup and launched properly. Sorry for the delay. If no more trouble, then launch time should be about 24 hours from now. I will announce the exact time later in this thread.

Sorry I need to delay the launch of Susucoin by a day or two due to a family member going to the emergency room. Will update this thread with the updated launch time as soon as I am able.

Susucoin will be restarted with the SHA256 algorithm on Sunday June 24 2018 @ 14:00 GMT.
The compiled wallets and source code will be made public at that time.

We will be restarting susucoin tentatively this coming weekend with the sha256 algorithm. New setup is currently undergoing comprehensive testing to make sure pool mining will work correctly without hiccups.

Due to a large amount of the initial blocks being orphaned due to a bug in the susucoin core wallet, I am planning to reset the susucoin genesis block and start over. I will pre-announce the start of mining here after testing is complete. Sorry for the inconvenience, but I think this is the best way to proceed for the best long-term development and maintenance of susucoin.

Instead of hard forking to a slower target spacing, I decided to build more full nodes on vps around the world. With improved latency we should have better connectivity and in theory that should help us prevent seeing so many orphans while pool mining.
I have setup a discord server if anybody wants to join and ask me questions.

Ive been thinking about this all day. There are many orphaned blocks from miners in pools. It seems to be a network latency issue. The target spacing is currently set to 2 minutes. If the target spacing is changed to 5 minutes, it should fix the latency issue with pools not syncing properly within the 2 minute target space. Tomorrow I will setup some more seed nodes around the world, and update the source code for a 5 minute target spacing. I have made an issue on the susucoin-project github for this.

Restarting the daemon should just work.

Sure thing. I am not hyping the coin as of now because I would prefer to work out any bugs in the basic systems before making any announcements.
If all goes well, I will put out the press release on Friday.

Cheers.
