Pennykoin develpoment notes March 07 2019
I’m finalizing the builds for the upcoming hardfork as I type this, and thought I’d do the dev blog thing we talked about on twitter. The changes are myriad & I’ll list them below, but in short we’ve rebased and have a clear upstream for once, we are moving to cnlite, and we’re keeping the newold original wallet instead of the conceal based one that had issues.
The algorithm change is a big deal, as it opens mining to gpu/cpu folks with a chance of profit. It also offers a TON of protection since nicehash,MRR, bitmain, & innosilicon asics don’t offer it. I’m sure nicehash/mrr will add it soon enough.
Now that this major-ish update is out of the way, I can step away from coin code for a bit and work on integrations, bitspend ( or whatever it gets named ), and mobile wallets.
