Should we add our difficulty algo to PXC?
-
This is what sets us apart from other communities. We mine to build. We don’t build to mine.
Can we add our difficulty algo to PXC code? It’s an unquestionable success.

Its working for us, its a no brainer to add it to PXC.

PXC is on a roller coaster between 2.54 low and 4.58 high. Although they have had a hard fork already. They started with 2400 block retarget window and met the same troubles as we did. Their hash rate rose to several GH/s an fell to nearly nothing, the difficulty increased from 2.6 to 10.4 at #45600 and stuck there. Hard forked at #46500 by introducing a difficulty limiting coefficient of 1.8. First retarget was in 300 blocks, all subsequent in 600 blocks. I guess they need to reconsider the limiting coefficient again. 1.4 or ours (1.4142 aka square root of 2) seems reasonable.

1.4142 (sqrt 2) is a good way to go. I would also want to know if they intend to have just a game currency or expand to general use.
If it’s a game currency it needs to have some extra firewalls.
