I'd say wait and see about Qora - Bitshares has its own SC system and Bitcoin is not interested in one for now.

We need adaptative difficulty and minting cap for mintable currency.

The monetary system is great.
But the mintable part was not part of the plan and so it was added later and I have to say it's very limited and clunky.
Coin are not viable because the difficulty curve is totally linear. You can mint as much coin as you want if you have the hashrate, no competition between minter.
There is absolutely no protection against big surge in hashrate (like ASICS with bitcoin). And ASICS will fataly come one day or the other.


Mintable coin are currently a success in term of activity and fee generated but it will not continue if nothing is done.

To be viable long-term, coin need adaptative difficulty and minting cap !



What is Minting cap : It stop totally the minting once a cap is reached. The minting can continue once at a certain block. For exemple a limit of 10'000 coin / 5000 block
If 10'000 are minted in 2000 blocks, minting is stopped for 3000 blocks


What is Adaptative difficulty : Based on the number of block to reach the limit, difficulty is adjusted proportionally for the next chunk. (like in traditional PoW)
The exeption is  : Difficulty only need to increase. If the cap is not reach, difficulty do not need to decrease because minting is not neccesary to coin survival. Monetary system coin still work perfectly if no coin are minted. This way there is no inflation when the cost of mining is superior to the cost of the coin. And that's a huge advantage compared to traditional PoW.

A GPU miner has been released for minting.

Takes a little set up but it works.

If you want to apply for you coin, write a PM to me with the following:
1. What makes your coin useful to the SuperNET. If your coin is just a clone of another coin with just some variables changed, there is no need to apply for inclusion into the CORE. It is just wasting of time. So, this means LTC cant get included in the CORE, however it can be in the spiral arms utilizing the power of the CORE.

2. Basic coin stats, believe it or not I have not memorized every coins current and future supply, emission curve, etc.

3. anything else you think will help me to understand your coin, the type of community, future goals, etc.

Important update
The pre-sale total cap of 750 BTC has been reached.
We are grateful to the community for the chance it has given us to make the Crypti vision come true!

Bter has frozen the CRSALE orders to avoid additional transactions over the 750 cap. The CRSALE orders will be re-opened in case of re-funds.
Maxmint still receives funds, which will be used in case of Bter re-funds, using their transaction time in blockchain to calculate the bonus and synchronize with Bter buys.


What's next?
We will continue working hard both on Crypti technology and business development, posting here tangible results periodically.

Moreover, we will use this period to finalize the Foundation charter and establish the Foundation from Crypti launch team and community members, and finalize the remaining materials (white-paper, ledger, site, etc...).

Once the August the 10th arrives, we will officially launch Crypti mainnet, and start distributing the genesis block to buyers.


Demo version issues

Okay, I'm stunned. This is a 'professional' doing client service?

Does anyone else have any proof of treatment like this.

This seems like the type of exchange we need to warn community members about.

Is the source code free from these flaws? Or does it still contain them?

Sorry guys, I was in the NXT thread. There, people also laughed at me when I tried to talk about a potential issue a few weeks ago, now I collected a 100,000 NXT bounty for identifying the bug.

I will be back shortly, to finish up this demonstration here.

Riecoin GPU miner update:

RIC mining performance is disappointing - Nvidia's GTX 780 Ti is only 3x faster than Intel's Core i7-4770K. But the Ti is 8x faster than the 4770K when used for XPM mining, so there is still hope. Apparently,  Nvidia's compiler still works best with small kernels. Modular multiplication for XPM and RIC uses 12 and 42 machine words respectively on the GPU device. The next step will be to write smaller kernels for the RIC core, but I will not be able to get back to this hobby for at about a month from now.

It would be interesting to find out the difference in performance for a RIC core between a GTX 780 Ti and a Radeon 290x. I have reason to belief that the GTX 780 Ti's performance should far exceed that of the 290x. But without an optimized RIC core for the 290x, it will be difficult to tell by how much. Hopefully someone who has excellent OpenCL programming skills can provide to us performance figures for the 290x .

Sorry for the typos, my smart phone screen is small.

I also strongly recommend that people stay away from RealSolid's mcxnow exchange. Having Nxt on it will only give us bad reputation by association.
