What algorithm would you use to verify Hadamard matrices?

Quote
Falsification of work is impossible since mathematical proof of any instance is possible either by computer, or by theorem (which could be attained from a professional in the field or public academic materials).

You're going to verify work by human intervention? Sorry, but this makes zero sense from a logistical standpoint.

It's worth reminding everyone that difficulty doesn't drive a coin's price.

Is it possible to calculate in advance how many shares will be included in the window? I'm thinking in terms of an implementation using a shares database (e.g., SQL). Before I begin collecting shares, can I compute approximately how many I will need to look at?
Yes, it will be approximately X * D. Depending on how you intend to use the approximation, a better one can be found.

My goal is to limit the number of rows fetched from the table to reduce server overhead. I would of course want to avoid the possibility of under-estimating, else the total payout wouldn't equal the block reward. Would I need to add anything to X*D to avoid underestimation?

Gox Litecoin Update: "We're looking forward to the rollout" but not sure when.

TOKYO - JAPAN - August 5th, 2013

LiteCoin Update

We hate to apologize yet again for the delay in implementing Litecoin, but the fact of the matter is that it depends on a variety of factors, including completing all of the above before we launch. We're looking forward to the rollout, but at this point are reluctant to speculate on when. We are sorry to keep Litecoin enthusiasts hanging.

20k PPS could be setup at DigitalOcean for ~$7/day, and you're charging ~$48/day. Even at DO's low rates, it's barely profitable now at the current difficulty and exchange rate. Terrible deal, if you ask me.

Bitcoin hashes are worthless. So why does BTC have any value? It's a paradox.

There is no innovation in TimeCoin. Don't waste your time on it, this coin will be dead in no time.

Which altcoin creation service did OP use? Just curious.

"Fair launch" is what we call a 2.2 million coin premine these days?!


its 1% of the total coins. ... i have all the coins in my possession, i'm running this shit now.

Good to know. I'll be steering clear of this one.

This is like: so why is the new mercedes innovative?
It is not. There are small changes to make it better but that is it. The important thing is the team behind the coin. Look at phenixcoin. They have such a good team and their coin is getting stronger and stronger. We will try everything to back up our coin and to make it worldwide.

If you can't explain how your coin stands out from the horde of other coins, then it's another pump & dump.

Where is the innovation?
