Execoin (EXE) Scrypt-Progressive-Nfactor cryptocoin

12, Apr 2014

execoin-crypto

Execoin (EXE) is an innovative cryptocurrency featuring strong progressive ASIC and multipool resistance, together with the fastest block confirmation time among N-factor coins. Execoin pioneers the concept of an ‘ASIC-free zone’ – a safe domain for GPU miners and investors ahead of the scrypt ASIC invasion. What does this mean? Currently, almost all GPU-based mining rigs are focused on scrypt coins, since Bitcoin and other SHA-based coins are entirely controlled by ASICs. But the cryptocoin market will undergo a massive change as new ASICs designed for the scrypt algorithm arrive and proliferate. Soon, these dedicated ASICs will make GPU mining any scrypt-based coin absolutely pointless. Execoin is one of the first coins to offer an alternative to ASIC domination.

Execoin represents a new generation of cryptocurrencies that prioritizes independence from ASIC miners. Its progressive-N algorithm progressively and proactively increases memory usage with time, to stay firmly ahead of future ASIC models. Fast block time and progressive ASIC and multipool resistance are key features of Execoin. Thought the coin is said to use Scrypt-Progressive-Nfactor algorithm it is essentially the same algo as other Scrypt-Adaptive-Nfactor crypto coins such as VTC for example.

Isracoin (ISR) Scrypt based cryptocoin

11, Apr 2014

isracoin-scrypto

Isracoin (ISR) is a crypto currency for Israel. It is based on Scrypt and is 10% premined. The premined coins will be distributed to the population of Israel and Israeli businesses, commencing on May 6th at midnight in accordance with the plan set forth.

The Isracoin follows in the footstep of other “national” crypto currencies, but it will be interesting if it will succeed where others have failed. The major problem with these coins is that if they have large premine and when people start getting their free coins they dump them on a exchanges to get some cash and this essentially ruins them. So it will be interesting to see how thing will go with ISR, will it go just like AUR or not, for a moment Isracoin has briefly climbed up to then 4th place in terms of market capitalization, but it didn’t manage to stay there for long.
