Cryptocurrency in pascal 100% lazarus / 8-Other ---------------------------------------------------------------------- BPascal · 2016-06-01 21:35 Hi everybody. I'm finalizing a project to create a cryptocurrency written 100% in Pascal. I think it's an interesting project for people who like the cryptocurrency world (like BitCoin) but usually don't develop with C code... All started some time ago when I wanted to understand how BitCoin works and I discovered something to innovate and improve... but I'm not a good C developer because my preferred language is Pascal, so I wrote a completely new cryptocurrency using pascal code. Important things about this new cryptocurrency: - The only thing similar to BitCoin is that will be P2P anb use a Proof-of-Work method to generate a BlockChain... but: - Will use a more secure EC algorithm (Elliptic Curve) - Will be able to delete the blockchain and will not need to store all the operations to work  (nowadays BitCoin is more than 23Gb of space, increasing quickly, 5 or 10 o more Gb per year). My proposition is to create a blockchain that can be deleted to use less space. - ... and much more! The only part of code not developed in Pascal is because I use the OpenSSL in DLL format (I'm developing in Windows), so I've not rewritten a cryptography code ... For your interest: - I've never developed with Lazarus, because I use Delphi... I think it will easily be portable because the important code is not in visual components... but I will need some help if you want when finished. A question: Do you know if exists a cryptocurrency written in Pascal?  (I'll be happy if I'm the first) Another question: Would you like to participate in? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- BPascal · 2016-07-05 13:02 Hi. App is in beta testing mode... if somebody is interested in beta testing please send an email to bpascalblockchain at gmail dot com ---------------------------------------------------------------------- BPascal · 2016-07-11 17:20 Thanks to first 5 beta testers... looking for 5 more testers. Probably genesis real block will be generated during august... Beta testers will be notified first to starting mining from block 1. Thanks! PD: Remember, to receive instructions send an email at bpascalblockchain at gmail dot com ---------------------------------------------------------------------- BPascal · 2016-08-12 15:40 Finally Pascal Coin started today! Pascal Coin is a P2P cryptocurrency written 100% in Pascal without need of historical operations. (It's named "Pascal Coin" in honor of Pascal language) Source code of first version of PascalCoin available at GitHub: https://github.com/PascalCoin/PascalCoin White Paper of Pascal Coin (the basis of the concept) here: https://github.com/PascalCoin/PascalCoin/blob/master/PascalCoin%20Whit e%20Paper%20-%20EN.pdf And a Windows installer available at SourceForge: https://sourceforge.net/projects/pascalcoin/files/PascalCoinWalletB1.0 .1.0.exe/download More information at Twitter @PascalCoin ---------------------------------------------------------------------- tr_escape · 2018-12-06 08:30 I know the topic is outdated but I just wondering how can anyone earn money with by pascalcoin? Another question who is using this crpyto-coins? Or clearly how can anyone use any crypto-coins for something? What can you do with crypto-coins as a programmer? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Xor-el · 2018-12-06 09:20 Quote from: tr_escape on December 06, 2018, 09:30:26 amI know the topic is outdated but I just wondering how can anyone earn money with by pascalcoin? same way people earn money via bitcoin, trading, hodling and payment for goods and services. Quote from: tr_escape on December 06, 2018, 09:30:26 amAnother question who is using this crpyto-coins? Or clearly how can anyone use any crypto-coins for something? a lot of people, payment for goods and services, infact cryptocurrencies has bridged the gap that previously existed for developers in countries where Paypal is not accepted.
