Mizz14176277ysooo... i can mine coins and eventually I will be a Millionaire because the blockchain is new?!
And is it ASIC Proof? -
@Mizz141 lol well, one can dream. its not asic proof yet, its in the early stages of development (v0.0.1)

@Root yeah, I've not seen a single full-scale apllication of blockchain in ruby, and I think its a technology that could be used with any language, so in effort to both save time while prototyping and help further the community of blockchain developing within ruby, I thought it would be a good idea

Root824697y@RuntimeError Truth. However, since speed is incredibly important, the usual choice is C. That's why this struck me as so odd
But for prototyping Ruby is a good choice -
@Root i think speed is relative to the framework youre using. when it comes to network speed, c wont get you a result much faster than ruby. while i agree that c is a faster language than ruby, i think that because of the statefulness of the blockchain and that most of any performance loss will be within peer-to-peer communication, the difference in execution time between c and ruby is negligible, even for production. (Especially without using rails, which adds huge overhead)

Root824697y@RuntimeError ah, okay.
I know basically nothing about blockchain, so thank you for enlightening me a little bit 😊 -
@Root if you want to learn it would be great to have you on our team, i see you love ruby (according to your profile), maybe check out the source and try playing around with it?
