ya, today i have doing research ETH, and also have tell POS, but i still dunno what the mean is POS.
and they say after POS, the ETH is cant miner jor right ?
and you know antpool ? why at antpool nobody miner ETH?
and ETH n ETH Classis izzit is same coin before ?
After POS, yes current PoW miners will switch to other GPU algorithms.
Instead of using so much electricity and hardware, Ethereum will be secured by its very own coin, ETH.
It's not final yet, but here's the third draft for Casper:
We set:
BLOCK_TIME: 4 seconds (aiming on the less ambitious side to reduce overhead)
SKIP_TIME: 8 seconds (aiming on the less ambitious side to reduce overhead)
EPOCH_LENGTH: 10800 (ie. 12 hours under good circumstances)
ASYNC_DELAY: 10800 (ie. 12 hours under good circumstances)
CASPER_ADDRESS: 255
WITHDRAWAL_DELAY: 10000000, ie. 4 months
GENESIS_TIME: some future timestamp marking the start of the blockchain, say 1500000000
REWARD_COEFFICIENT: 3 / 1000000000
MIN_DEPOSIT_SIZE: 32 ether
MAX_DEPOSIT_SIZE: 131072 ether
V_LOSS_MAXGROWTH_FACTOR: 32
FINALITY_REWARD_COEFFICIENT: 0.6 / 1000000000
FINALITY_REWARD_DECAY_FACTOR: 1000 (ie. 1.1 hours under good circumstances)
MIN_BET_COEFF: 0.25
NUM_SHARDS: 80
VALIDATORS_PER_SHARD: 120
With Casper, we can finally do sharding, blockchain's Holy Grail, mass scalability will be possible.
Antpool mines with SHA256 algo, Ethereum utilizes GPUs with Ethash algo
Yes, ETH was just ETH, then DAO happened and we forked to restore the funds, ETC was the original chain, thus the name Classic. But the miners and markets have spoken, we'd stick with ETH for good.
