Awesome project for sure. Dev is very dedicated and prompt for responses in discord.
Takes awhile to find some blocks. Patience is key.
Wow! Cool! How many threads did you use? I'm struggling with my double Opteron 6380 setup. Usually in CNv7 I use 32 (all) - 3 threads = 29 threads for maximum performance. In CN-light algo I use all threads. But here... I just can't understand it - tried almost all numbers and found the best HR @ 22 threads. But it changes and is not constant. I seems to can't find sweet spot. Also I have way less HR then on CN-light, on which CN-adaptive is based I believe. On CN-light it's about 3.5 kH/s, but here best I had was like 1.8 kH/s. Why so?
What is most suspicious: "SEARIVER INDUSTRIAL LIMITED was incorporated on[ 03-OCT-2017 as a Private company limited" So it's literally "just" created company. Maybe they are just avoiding taxes this way?

Wrong. I got info from the real insider that true price is 250$. So likely your source of info got shortage on symbols when he/she wrote to you. Or maybe that's your device fault so that it was unable to show you additional zero in the end. I dunno. But anyways - that's correct info. I checked it. 100% true.

It is still an improved version of Zcash. And Zcash is valued at ~$380
Although the devs have left the ship, the codebase is still super sold, and the project can be carried on by the community....(I smell another fork in the future);
Well, I'd stick with the next orator - ZCL is kinda wrecked pirate ship which killed forked captain and had free sailed. It was fun for the beginning, but then all the rats begin to leave the ship. And that could mean only one thing But, as was mentioned there is no guarantee that some other pirates will not use it agan - Litecoin private? Hmmm, why not kidz? Are you ready kidz?!

And ZClassic is following the trend, rapidly gaining 75% in the last hours.
And this is the most mysterious question - why it is growing? It is by no means NOW related to BTCP, but somehow it grows. That's strange...

Guys here is some math behind this coin.
First we should assume that usually coins tend to fall into equilibrium of price-per-coin and difficulty of network. I.e. if coin price is suddenly UP so follows the network. If coin is heavily dumped then less people are willing to mine it and thus usually all coins tend to have quite equal profitability from the same GPU's. For example look at current profitability of most equihash coins. I used $1.5 profit per day from GTX 1060 class GPU as a typical average for short-mid term.
So guys I should tell you overall picture is quite bad. Even if we assume BTCP will cost about 1000 USD (0.1 BTC) then difficulty should be around 30-40 times lower then now to provide comparable "standard" profitability. This is around 700 k sol/s. It's something like 300-400 rigs total capacity. If there will be more - less profit for everyone. Furthermore, if we put 100 bucks per coin (which many here can consider as more realistic), then we have capacity only for 30-40 rigs in total! That creates insanely huge risk of 51% attack. Another words, I think, if this math is right, then this coin will not be able to survive if it will cost less than around 1000 USD. Likely devs made "all-or-nothing" bet on this...
What do you think? Is that math is correct?

OMG! Recently supernova testnet pool had a massive 6 500 Mh/s! I'm starting to thing that this numbers are kind of random. Or how/why else there could be in the TESTNET 10x power of all other equihash coins combined?
Yeah. I see already. It's likely that SuperNova just confused Mh with Kh. It now reads something like "Pool Hash: 1,067.99 MH/s" which NORMALLY *should* read as 1 000 Mh, but in reality likely is just 1 Mh.
