New thread run by an official developer. Seems like good news.

More than 20% of the coin value, for one stupid person, nicely done.

This whole situation definitely could have been handled differently by many people involved, but this kind of shake out was expected with a truly decentralized project, where many great people outside of the core team are involved.  Raven has already made great strides because of these dedicated individuals, and the resetting of the Discord and ANN ownerships will bring more strength to Raven than what was lost during the process.

Maybe you guys should write a short version of what happened because it seems a lot of people think you wanted to make a new thread just because you had nothing better to do!
Something like "Because of the previous thread owner leaving project, we had to create a new ANN thread and Discord."

still the other thread is creating more confusion.  The OP keeps getting changed.

There has been a lot of RVN miners coming out.
Anyone have any real stats comparing them?

When I look at a pool site like Ravenminer.com, I see 23 different miners versions being used. Some of those are AMD or CPU but the vast majority are Nvidia miners. There is Enemy 1.03, zealot Enemy 1.0, 2.2.5, Nevermore 0.1, Superminer 1.1, 1.4. 1.5 and 1.6, Raven miner 2.2.5, and more.

So which one is the best? or Better or whatever... and I know that Enemy is closed source and the others are open (let's not go there), lets keep it focused on MH/s and coins in my wallet. I see that the "crowd" overwhelmingly likes Enemy - 60% use it. But the next one the "crowd" likes is 2.2.5 which I found to be really slow. So one can't always trust the crowd, or can they?

So what about the old thread? do you want to say that old thread was running by other people besides developer team member, because you say that new thread was running by official team?

I found some connections between the Ravencoin whitepaper and past news articles.

On page 4 several ideas for tokenization are presented:


The X16R (Ravencoin algorithm) whitepaper is written by Tron Black and Joel Weight, both of Medici Ventures, a subsidiary of Overstock.
The Ravencoin whitepaper that was just released is written by Tron Black and Bruce Fenton, who is a Bitcoin Foundation Board Member.

If you look them up you find this article:

The joint venture is taking place between Overstock subsidiary Medici Ventures, which manages the company’s Blockchain investments, and Peruvian economist Hernando de Soto himself. The venture will make a framework for local property records which will leverage Blockchain technology as a way to transfer rights and make ownership records harder to forge.

Well, I am sure you can put 1 and 1 together.
