RE: Thoughts on HF 20 "Velocity"- Yes to tokens, but no to mining.

in #hf207 years ago

Please help me to understand your aversion to GPU mining. I don't know much about mining, but what difference does it make if it's CPUs or GPUs doing the work? Are you just short of GPUs and have a bunch of bad@$$ CPUs - so you don't want people with GPUs to be able to outperform you? :D
Honestly, I don't think I even know enough about it to even formulate an intelligent question here, but what can you explain?

Sort:  

If we're talking about a PoW as a mechanism for registration of new accounts, a GPU friendly PoW algo sets a high barrier to entry for being able to mine, which is not the goal here.
