Kind of as I see it, yes. Not sure about witness style scheme and security. Sounds like a weak point at first, but it's the strength and feature of the system. You can conduct transaction without having to know the wohle picture. Think of a little IOT-device sleeping 10 minutes, waking up for 60 seconds, checking something (sensor?), doing transaction, sleep again. Kind of an offline transaction. This could not be done with a blockchain because the device would have to be online syncing the whole time. Or it would need a thin-client server structure, like electrum wallet.  Plus you can do transaction without any cost whatsoever other than doing a little POW.

What came to my mind would be to setup some nodes in a LAN, separating them from the network via firewall, let them be on their own for 60 minutes and then reconnect them. Transactions should be valid. Not sure sure about coordinator needed at this point in time, but if  finalized, things like that should be possible.

Note 160k for the deal from my side, please.

More likely you would simply start a new blockchain and you would than enable a redeeming mechanism in the new clients that "enables" your NEWAir on the new blockchain by importing your old wallet.dat so based on the adress-keys inside. MMC/PTS/AGS already did it several times... approved method and you don't need any exchanges whatsoever. Only the ppl have to fetch their air from the exchange and into their "own" wallet on time ... one will see, i guess. So the premined 2.5m would also appear in the new blockchain and there is no possibility of abuse (you had to trust the devs on this one until now so nothing changes here) - I think the greater "problem" is that several "Pros" that played this coin to this point are now so completely full of AIR that history will repeat even more distinct, i'm afraid. This will take a long time to "recover"... also me should have shortened greater quantities earlier.

Personally I don't believe in any of those so called "concepts" or strategies concerning of simple Alts anymore. The only thing that is gonna bring sustainable growth would be a mass adoption of any kind based on a decentralized blockchain-application but not necessarily simply by paying for goods online or even using those blockchain-application as a means of investment - Q.E.D. via this first attempt of AIR, even with best intentions of the developers.

Have Fun!

Just the usual "very busy" for one hour calculating Rewards-glitch ... they love the thrill over there....

The point i wanted to make (and for this point it doesn't matter which hashing-algo you use):

it's 2 different knobs you can play around with:
1. dynamic difficulty readjustment, KGW being one example
2. dynamic block reward readjustment (like DRK has implemented a dynamic readjustment at a "fixed rate" or HVC pretends to have implemented a dynamic readjustment based on voting - once they get their shit done   )

It seems that most people think of this being the same thing somehow and that it has stgh. to do with "keeping multipools away" which simply isn't right or is at least a big oversimplification. Makes me wonder what all those people mining crypto really "learned" while hodling their vanishing-wealth and laughing at typos  

And pardon me for this unjust generalization.

I'm also not sure if the KGW implementataion at this point reacts "quick" enough if a multipool jumps of the ship. Will leave the miners stuck the heights of long block times for days. The Hashrate going down from ~300 to >200, the difficulty took more than one day to readjust, not even clear if this adjustment is finished already. But I think things like that can be readjusted later on also.

On the other hand maybe this is just my subjective conception, this graph tells something different, doesn't it?:

Also what Darkcoin does is an adjustment of the block reward, KGW is on the difficulty, correct me if wrong. And btw - It's not this "moores law thing" what is keeping the multis away at this time but the hashing-algorithm used, right? Aircoin will have other means of adjusting the block reward and this will not be fixed like in darkcoin but can be adjusted on purpose by teamaircoin - correct me if wrong again.

  

Interesting Point... the market-cap that results out of this parameters will produce a decent buzz ... also if I don't believe, that this will keep people from accepting the given price, if the developers manage to keep it stable at this rate. At least there is no single entity that could dump other than the devs themselves.

Look at AUR, it didn't keep people from buying even though everybody knew (or maybe not everybody ) what is going to happen and that the marketcap is artificially distorted. Do I trust 200.000 Icelanders more than a dev team :-)?   

The "no new features" point could be debated - also if it's right that "stable rising market price" isn't a feature of the coin itself but a feature of the endeavour as a whole.

I don't think that a dumping-out option at some future point is the intended mean of reward for the dev team  - on the other hand It's clear that they will reward themselves for the work done.

@teamaircoin: How do you reward yourself for the work done? Is there some kind of salary? Do you intend to use the pre mined funds for this? Sorry if this maybe is covered somewhere in whitepaper or somewhere in this thread and I'm not aware at the moment...

There's a thing called mining-luck... 

 

As my question did cover POS and alternative Algos also and your answer didn't clearly reflect on the second:

If I got you right, you do consider moving on to a Proof-Of-Stake AND/OR a different Mining-Algo (Scrypt-N, SHA-3) also, if this gives advantage to the project as a whole?

It is said that both this options can be applied to an existing coin afterwards forcing a hard-fork, but if I think about it no example where this actually really happened comes to my mind, not counting "blockchain-resets" ala Memorycoin.

Regards

@Teamaircoin:

I'm not sure if this question already came up somewhere in the past 20 pages ... so: why didn't you choose some fancy algo or some POS ingredient to the asset? To keep things simple (in terms of avoiding POS) or to even attract ASICS in the near future?

The point is that nxt did the IPO already and maybe you should compare it to other already done or nearly complete IPOs better (Mastercoin, Counterparty? - but i didn't really study them) but not to some IPOs still ongoing and with no finishing-line in sight (NEM, emunie, Ethereum) because also the time after the IPO and the development of the market-price has to be taken into consideration.

Bitshares is also happening right now and it seems the found a way to make it happen in a "civilized way" somehow but only with the addition of Angelshares, Protoshares as a single mean of IPO was a fail because of the strain done by the centralized nature of the mining process but of course this is also the opinion of a (too) late comer in this regard   .

Also one can question if this is gonna be a success for the investors at this rate. Let's suppose it's no scam but there is a coin coming, but maybe it fails on one of its features (no one even knows about now - but hey it's C++) or get's postponed from week to week (bitcoin going to $100 meanwhile - evil FUD sayings) there is a chance that the market will find a lower price than what was paid here at the IPO (50% Mining - this will attract some big guns dumping definitely) - or at least the possibilities don't clearly reflect on the risks one takes (especially if one pays directly)... just my "newbie" 2cts looking at all this crazy ongoings since last November :-). Of course I know you all took this into consideration :-).

Someone told me of a black swan out there and I'm quite sure that sooner or later it will appear to me  .

The longer it takes that some event is happening that was announced for a point in the past the greater the probability it will still happen. Does this sentence have some congruency with your recognition of the world or common sense as such? Maybe all too often this is the case if you translate your expectations into perceptions but mostly it's just
