SPECIFICATIONS

  • Algorithm: Scrypt
  • Block Time: 20 seconds  – Enough time to minimize orphans but still provide almost instant transactions.
  • Difficulty: Starts at 0.00024414 – It will take 6-8 difficulty adjustments (or ~13000 blocks) to reach desired difficulty of 1. It retargets quickly to adjust to the environment, so stability should not be much of an issue. Miners should also find the system adjusts fast enough to be up to date, but not so fast as to make the environment unpredictable and unstable. 6 hours is target time. Every 1080 blocks (6 hours @ 20 seconds per block),  the network scales the difficulty accordingly. Example: If target is 6 hours and it took 3 hours to find 1080 blocks, difficulty will increase 200%.
  • Reward: 20 coins per block, halved every 3 years – Consistent rewards encourage miners to support the network long term. Loyalty is rewarded. This also reduces volatility by setting the foundation on a stable path. Due to the fair launch policy, block rewards will grow in value until they reach the 20 coins per block reward. More details below.
  • Maximum coins: 200,000,000

Cryptogenic Bullion (CGB) Scrypt based cryptocoin

cryptogenicbullion-scrypt-coin

With Bitcoin gaining wider adoption as a currency across the globe, businesses not adapting to this development risk missing out on potential revenue streams. But once a business, large or small, joins the Bitcoin economy, it faces misallocation of risk. In particular, given Bitcoin’s still maturing market, businesses are susceptible to price volatility, which can stress balance sheets. So a common question many businesses will ask is how to hedge against the inherent risks of adopting Bitcoins. Cryptogenic Bullion, a virtual commidity-currency, aims to answer such a question.

A fork of the virtual currency Peercoin, Cryptogenic Bullion (CB) was designed to be a rare, interest bearing, peer-to-peer virtual commodity with the currency characteristics similar to Bitcoin. It maintains the same features as Bitcoin: decentralization, anonymity, and low fees. But it also has some differences: accelerated decrease of the mining subsidy and 2% annual interest eligible for coins which have been stationary in a user’s wallet for at least 30 days. The mining subsidy is the reward from the Proof of Work (PoW) scheme that fortifies Bitcoin. Moreover, the 2% annual interest is as result of the Proof of Stake (PoS) scheme, which increases the security of the block chain against 51% attacks.

The mining subsidy is initially set to 10 CB per block and is halved every 50,000 blocks. This will continue until reaching a block reward floor of 0.01 CB. By this time there will be approximately one million CB in existence, and the 0.01 CB block reward will equate to about 0.5% annual inflation.
