Hello again,

We are constantly adding new guides and tutorials for developers and miners to the æternity blog so make sure you’re reviewing it regularly.

Learn how to register and update a name or how to operate oracle transactions.

I'm a miner and interested in AE.  However, I'm not easily locating alot of information.

1.  Was there an ICO?
2.  Was there a premine?
3.  How much VRAM is needed to mine it?
I don't actually know that I can mine this coin, haven't seen a statement on what hardware is needed.  Only that it will run under Ubuntu currently.

Wanted to point out according to the pool stats page posted elsewhere that one single pool has over %90 of the hashrate.  Don't want to call this thing a ****coin because I don't like use profanity but this mainnet launch is looking kinda rough so far.

I'm rather intrigued by the Cuckoo algorithm.  The only implementation I know of is in GrinCoin and it's supposedly needing over 6 GB of VRAM.  Is this using a fork or modded version of it by chance that will take less than 6 GB of VRAM?  I haven't seen any GPU requirements.  Is it a safe assumption it will run on a Quadro or Titan V?  I have seen on Discord that Cuckoo runs horribly on AMD cards but on another project unrelated to this one.

Hey,

Let me try answering your questions:
1. æternity did not do an ICO, it ran a campaign - we are currently in the second phase of migrating the AE ERC-20 token to the AE live-network token.
2. There was no pre-mining, see more here.
3. The best place to find mining (and any other kind of) information is our Forum. Find here GPU memory requirements.

The Roma Release was not an easy task and there was some power concentration for a while due to a number of factors. Initially, Windows mining was not available, nor people could mine using AMD cars. However, those problems are quickly being resolved, many mining improvements are being deployed daily and our dev team is currently preparing a binary of the Windows version of the æternity node. We are persuaded that the mining power will be fairly distributed among all participating pools very soon.

Let us know if you have more questions. Happy mining!

Hey everyone,

Last week the Roma team (the team responsible for supporting and updating æternity’s Roma release 1.X.X) launched release 1.1.0 featuring many improvements.

In parallel, they are preparing a binary of the Windows version of the æternity node. Read the latest development update for more details.

MORE MINING ENHANCEMENTS

For our next release, we will deviate from our bi-weekly release cycle scheduling release 1.2.0 for 10.1.19 (Thursday). The reason for this is quite obvious: the only thing that is worse than releasing and deploying on Friday evening is releasing and deploying between Christmas and New Year. :wink:

Hey again,

The æternity æpps team just shared an update on the state of the æpps development.

Currently, AE tokens can be stored in the Base æpp (mobile only), as well as in the AirGap Vault mobile application. Send transactions can be conducted through both.

ÆPPS UPDATE: ROMA IS LIVE!

Stay tuned for more news soon!

And one more exciting news - æternity just announced a bounty for visualization of live data coming from the æternity blockchain!

The submission should be a fully-functioning open-source web application.

It should visualize data in the following categories: core, token, block, and mining stats, and the æternity protocol (e.g., oracles queried, names registered, state channels opened/closed, total value existing in state channels). Find more details and deadline below:

Roma release I read this update little time ago and should say it is good advancement. It was stated that those migrated during phase 0 should do some steps about what is explained. I didn't migrate my AE tokens yet but will be doing for Phase 1 so my question is will I and those doing in next phases will also have access to everything like early migrators ?

Hello,
If you mean access to your live-release tokens - if you migrate your ERC-20 tokens now, you will be able to access them after the scheduled hard fork in February 2019.

Hello AE supporters,

We are very happy to announce that æternity has launched 2 charitable foundations - one in Liechtenstein and one in Bulgaria.

The goal of both organizations will be to provide grants and educational support to innovative blockchain projects. The Bulgarian foundation will focus on supporting projects throughout the Balkans, while the Liechtenstein-based foundation will have an international focus. Find more details below:

What equipment is best for Aeternity mining?

Hey,

For æternity testnet and mainnet launch, we will use the cuckoo cycle implementation, as provided by John Tromp. This includes per default a miner for CPUs and a miner for Nvidia GPUs will be configurable. We provide instructions on how to configure this in GitHub.

So, the best hardware to use for mining AE (on the Testnet for now) is NVidia 1080 Ti or alternatively, the 1070 Ti.

Hello again,

Our latest weekly dev update is out!

We are very busy preparing our mainnet launch and working hard to finalize Bitcoin-NG, State Channels and Sophia, our specialized language for smart contracts.

Check the progress we've made over the last week:

Though I am not interested in mining and have less knowledge but based on common sense can tell specifications and requirements will be shared on right time.

I want to support the Aeternity as a miner and so I need to know from what hardware I can build my rig in advance to start mining right after mainnet starts.

Hey,

Thank you for your interest and your support.

Hello again,

Check out our latest blog post dedicated to the concept of a self-sovereign identity.

Is it possible that we can regain control of our own identity and actually be in charge of it, rather than having to request different versions of it from third parties?
It is, thanks to the blockchain technology.

What percentage of total coins are reserved for mining when mainnet is launched? I.E. if lets say 100 mil were sold and used on the ico, how many more will be mined?

Hey Simss,

Mining will create new coins. The amount of new coins created per block will be modifiable by the governance mechanism and there is no maximum supply.

The AE Team
