What's Grin?
>Electronic transactions for all. Without censorship or restrictions.
>Grin empowers anyone to transact or save modern money without the fear of external control or oppression. Grin is designed for the decades to come, not just tomorrow. Grin wants to be usable by everyone, regardless of borders, culture, skills or access.

Private
>Grin has no amounts and no addresses. Transactions can be trivially aggregated. To hide where a newly created transaction comes from, it gets relayed privately (a "random walk") among peers before it is publicly announced.

Scalable
>MimbleWimble leverages cryptography to allow most of the past transaction data to be removed. This guarantees Grin won't crumble under its own weight in the long term.

Open
>Grin is developed openly, by developers distributed all over the world. It's not controlled by any company, foundation or individual. The coin distribution is designed to be as fair (but not gratis) as is known to be possible.

>Grin is under development. Launch planned for Jan. 15th 2019.

What? Doesn't that make this pointless. If you can't own any currency you can't spend it.

It's digital communism, that's what it sounds like.

read the instructions to send a transaction... you have to do what?
>send a file via email or FTP, have the recipient interact with it and send it back to you, then interact with it
this thing is dead in the water with such a ridiculous UX

Gee whiz I sure wish I had an 8GB VRAM videocard to mine it

Nanonymous No.2402 [D] >>2404

>>2103
I just checkout it out a bit further. Yep, you actually need a 6GB VRAM videocard to mine it.
As far as I know, there's no way to know the current coin supply, but it should be about 35 million coins. So the current price of 5$ is super fucking high if a coin is emitted every second.
The only investment to make here is buying a 1080 Ti.

There are 1.8M coins as of now, and as always these cryptocurrencies are way overpriced.
