Curecoin 2.0 is live!!!

The fork was just completed a couple hours ago. New clients are coming online and staking away with the increased stake reward of 4% vs the old reward of 1%.

Block time has been reduced to 4 minutes from 10 minutes (traditional BTC time).

Minimum Stake Age is now 4 days vs 30 days

ASIC POW has been removed, leaving the bulk of electricity used for curecoin dedicated to protein simulations via the folding@home project out of Stanford University.

Windows client available here https://github.com/cygnusxi/CurecoinSource/releases/tag/v2.0.0.1

Mac OSX client and a .deb linux installer will be posted asap. Linux compiling instructions are in the github readme.

https://github.com/cygnusxi/CurecoinSource

OP will be updated asap to reflect the new features and removal of the old.

Re: [ANN] FoldingCoin - MINE FOR MEDICINE- PHASE 2.0

Hello FLDC crew.. I just made a post about about my current merge mining experience https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=603757.msg16394772#msg16394772

Its been a while since I merge mined because I wanted to keep my original cygnusxi username... well those days are done! In hindsight I wish I would have merge folded all along..

Anyways as you can see from my post I am missing a figure for a profit estimate for FLDC. If anyone can help me with a rough estimate I can go back on update that and hopefully some more people jumping into cure will decide to merge fold with FLDC.

Cheers guys and keep up the good work! A lot of you do merge mine with curecoin already, even if you dont we can all take a little claim in team curecoin being rank 3 now so congrats on being a very big part in making that happen in many ways. I have reopened comms with the FLDC crew a bit. Both teams are pretty busy striking while the iron is hot I believe but we agree that FLDC and CURE merge folding is definitely a good reason for us to work closer going forward.

Keep folding Wink science coins have a lot to show to the science community still!

Re: Round 1 Curecoin crowd sale ACTIVE - 10k Curecoins to be sold

This is the kickoff to the crowd sale test runs to get a feel for how well this will work on bitcointalk and curecoin.net/forum.

Before it begins please know that all round 1 contributions MUST be posted on https://www.curecoin.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=3902&p=5659#p5658 for approval, any unapproved contributions will not be awarded in curecoin.

This is a proactive way of dealing with the large amount of curecoin in donation wallets without saturating the market. Since this will sovle a lot of market saturation issues it can be expected that the price of curecoin will now follow the basic scarcity model as it is intended. Total BTC maximum is 5 BTC in round 1.

The first crowd sale will be for Curecoin development. 10,000 Curecoins will be divided up among the contributors. Minimum contribution in round 1 is 0.25 BTC. Minimum goal for release of curecoins to contributors is 2.5 BTC. This will be round 1 of roughly 45 rounds spread over time (again depending on response).

After this there will be a curecoin crowd sale for ;
 a.ANTRUK: Learn More on the ANTRUK homepage. http://www.antibioticresearch.org.uk/
     b.Bonfils: Learn More on the Bonfils Blood Center homepage. http://www.bonfils.org/index.cfm/medical-services/research/

This will repeat if the response is good. If you are interested please head over to https://www.curecoin.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=3902&p=5659#p5658
Create a login if you do not have one. The crowd sale is going to be hosted on curecoin.net to keep the even orginazed and bring some traffic to the curecoin forum. Bitcointalk private messages can be utilized also if need be.

How many million dollars you put it in to markets?  Shocked

If you are referring to the recent spike on the exchanges I think that is people anticipating the SigmaXcoin launch from Curecoin developers. Anyone holding curecoins will get a % of stake in Sigma and also Curecoin 2.0.

Human-Mineable Scientific Crypto integration needs you! Curecoin integration.
by
cygnusxi
on 09/06/2015, 22:37:22 UTC
In anticipation of CureCoin 2.0 we are preparing for new unexplored avenues of “mining.” In the first step to implement a Human-Minable Scientific Crypto we need to gather some data, and you can be rewarded for participating even in this early stage!

How?
Easy! Sign up for the CureCoin http://fold.it/ team and start manually folding proteins. There is a lightweight client / scientific game available for Linux, Mac, and Windows.



After your account is created , you will want to attach your CureCoin address to in in order to be eligible for rewards.  Click “My Page” in the top right corner. Then click “Edit Profile”



Saving your CureCoin address to your profile



When it’s saved you will see your CureCoin address next to your Bio



Join the CureCoin Foldit team here http://fold.it/portal/node/2000365 or search for CureCoin in the groups link.

That’s it! Fire up the client and log in, and start using the first prototype of Human Mineable Scientific Crypto with CureCoin!

Start with something easy if you want



Or dive into the larger puzzles!

Curecoin Petaflops crushes all of Boinc during launch still 2x faster then grid
by
cygnusxi
on 08/12/2014, 00:05:31 UTC
First of all, Id like to say hats off to both teams (cure and grid), both have done an excellent job of making a massive increase in the computational power of research DCN's. Instead of mining, try scientific mining / folding  Wink Just pick a coin and do some science with those watts !

Curecoin launches on the largest scientific DCN in the world Folding@home that was pushing roughly 45 petaflops (currently 40) vs entire boinc network at < 10 petaflops (currently 8 ).

During the first month of production curecoin peaked at 255 million PPD in F@H benchmarking, even at 200 mill PPD reaching ~38% of the networks total power.



Curecoin max speed 40%+ of 48+* petaflops = 19.2 petaflops (more than 2x as fast as the entire boinc network all users combined )

Curecoin current speed 7% of F@H network @ 40 petaflops = 2.8 petaflops ref -> http://folding.extremeoverclocking.com/team_list.php?s=  and  http://folding.stanford.edu/

Gridcoin current speed 14% of Boinc network @  7.951 PetaFLOPS = 1.11 petaflops ref-> http://www.allprojectstats.com/showteam.php?projekt=0&id=1822494  and  http://boinc.berkeley.edu/

*forum posts suggest Curecoin may have increased F@H production by as much as 33% meaning total pflops may have peaked at ~ 60 pflops.

Notable achievements of both curecoin and gridcoin

Curecoin at rank #5 on F@H for all time stats

Gridcoin at rank #10 on boinc for all time stats

Gridcoin team first scientific mining coin to launch

Curecoin team first to break 19+ petaflop barrier world record in a single research team

Again. hats off to both teams, instead of mining, try scientific mining / folding  Wink Just pick a coin and do some science with those watts !

Fold for Curecoins with AMD GPU based Linux farm? New AMD drivers F@H friendly !

Looking to fold for Curecoins with AMD GPU based Linux farm? New AMD drivers F@H friendly !

Many linux users with AMD cards have run into problems folding with the older drivers. The latest drivers cure this problem for the AMD GPU linux crowd.

To fold for cure with a Linux GPU farm

Do not clone installs, each machine must have a unique install of F@H software ( all can use the same user ID and passkey though)

Use the latest AMD drivers for maximum speed

Team CureCoin now rank #9 in Folding @ Home history after only 1 month +
by
cygnusxi
on 22/06/2014, 01:07:54 UTC
In about 1 month, Team Curecoin has folded so many proteins with the F@H clients, we have climbed the ranks faster then any team in history, and this is going up against teams that have been folding for up to ~14 years. Currently Team Curecoin is still more the 3x as fast as the old fastest teams. Jump on board with a coin that is doing good for medical science.

Proof is in the numbers

http://folding.extremeoverclocking.com/team_list.php?s=

http://folding.extremeoverclocking.com/team_summary.php?s=&t=224497

Since Curecoin utilizes gpus and cpus to do the research , and ASICs to keep the blocks flowing, we have opened up an avenue where gpus can contribute directly to science, which for outdoes even powerful cpu's.

Take a look at http://Curecoin.net for info on how to join the fastest research coin community on earth.

Re: 300CURE ($250) bounty for new logo/coin image design! (POST ENTRIES HERE)
by
cygnusxi
on 25/05/2014, 08:28:13 UTC
PLEASE NOTE:

When designing a logo please note the difference between the Caduceus and the Rod of Asclepius.

2 snakes on a stick = Caduceus. This is what most people are using. It is the symbol of Mercury/Hermes. God of tricksters and thieves, bankers and merchants.

1 snake on a stick =  Asclepius. This is a symbol of healing and medicine.

Please don't use them blindly and be aware of the meaning.

"The caduceus is often used incorrectly as a symbol of healthcare organisations and medical practice (especially in North America) due to confusion with the traditional medical symbol, the rod of Asclepius, which has only one snake and is never depicted with wings."


Please note also:
The original logo had no snake heads, and was not the Caduceus or Rod of Aesculapius. It was meant to be a helix. The helix is what I want to see  Wink

Keep up the good work on logo ideas  Smiley
