[Breaking News] BTC.com mining pool will launch Grin mining simultaneously on the mainnet!

Recently, we have often seen Grin in major media articles, and discussions about Grin at home and abroad are also very heated:

The next generation of Bitcoin?

A bear market booster?

Graphics card mining savior?

If we talk about the biggest "Internet celebrity coin" in the cryptocurrency circle in 2019, it must be the smiling Grin. According to the official website, the main network launch time of this "Internet celebrity Grin" is: January 15, 2019 (around 2:00 am on January 16, 2019, Beijing time).

Now here comes the point, BTC.com mining pool will simultaneously launch Grin mining!

Before that, in order to help miners understand Grin more intuitively and make adequate preparations, we have sorted out the key points of Grin mining:

Grin is a blockchain project that implements the MimbleWimble protocol. It aims to be a scalable privacy cryptocurrency developed and maintained by the community.

GRIN official website: https://grin-tech.org

Blockchain browser: https://grinscan.net

Total amount: No upper limit

Block time: 1 Min

Block reward: 60 GRIN

Pre-mining and private placement quantity: None

Grin uses a PoW algorithm called Cuckoo Cycle, which can currently be mined using CPU and GPU.

In order to balance the benefits of graphics cards with different performance, Grin uses dual algorithms Cuckaroo29 and Cuckatoo31 for mining. After the mainnet is launched, Cuckaroo29 will mine 90% of the coins and Cuckatoo31 will mine 10% of the coins. In the next two years, a hard fork will be made every six months to increase the proportion of Cuckatoo31, and eventually Cuckatoo31 will be used entirely for mining.

Official Cuckoo Cycle 29 algorithm supports graphics cards (video memory requirement is greater than 5.5G)

Official Cuckoo Cycle 31 algorithm supports graphics cards (video memory requirement is greater than 11G)
