Ok to answer this correct,

1) We will try to make a single script to get mining working with GPU or CPU (as people choose)
2) Yes, no conflicts. DIfferent ports and config files/databases and so on.

Kind regards

I'm excited. I will mine this.
I like the no ICO or IPO. How big is the premine going to be though? I hope for 0 premine.

Ouch it looks like a massive 25% premine.   is this a 450,000 premine or 250,000 premine?

I would recommend putting the premine in a contact that releases 1% of the premine every month to the dev. 250,000 premine so 2,500 coins released each month to the devs.

Since this currency will be mainly bounty based so we have no other choice. There must be an incentive to run a node or otherwise help Shift grow. This is the only way of making this happen. Maybe lock some funds and distributed over time.

Also, the 12% is not completely true.. mining will end when the community says so. The voting will be able to take place after a minimum of 2 million mined. So theoretically it could be a 1% premine, or 0.01%.

 What we see all around crypto is a very weak p2p network with few nodes. What are this decentralized and distributed applications about if not a strong network with people want to build something? This is forgotten, everytime and people often use "decentralization" as a slogan or a word that people use for "selling" their software. But they are missing the fundamentals in our opinion.

A great example on people who have managed to accomplish this is HZ. The only ones. Shift is based on ethereum and its core foundation is dapps and smart contracts.

HOWEVER, since shift will listen much to the community, we can make some adjustments.. we have no universal solution. So come with suggestions..

I have the same question (your snapshot from wallet shows 460,000 premined coins!!!!) 

I would skip installing on the same linux box as Ethereum if you value your Ether

Wow, this is next ethereum clone? Great idea.

Yeah, it can be mined with ethminer. It will work as geth, though some small adjustments regarding names etc.

We are in talk with the developer of the GUI wallet, there are plans of doing some integration with mining inside the GUI. So mine with a simple "click"

Can you tell something about the algorithm? And what will the bounties be? Are there any translation bounties? if you, please mark me.

So how does the eta look for it to launch ??

Thanks it will be like 4 am for me bloody will have to set my alarm to get up !!
