I came here to ask— would Feathercoin devs consider forking to multi-algo (like in Myriad)?
It’s become rather popular lately, being imitated by Digibyte, Digitalcoin, and soon to be Auroracoin, Verge, among others.
Feathercoin could keep its neoscrypt and add other algorithms. The possibilities are endless:
~ 80% of blocks neoscrypt
~ 10% sha256d, 10% scrypt, merge mining enabled
OR
~ 25% neoscrypt
~ 25% blake2s
~ 25% groestl
~ 25% keccak
Just two ideas…
THE ADVANTAGES
- More hash power!
- If neoscrypt difficulty ever spikes, blocks continue to be found
- Mining is more decentralised— greater farm resistance?
