How it works

Mining

  • The X16R algorithm intends to solve the centralization of mining seen on the Bitcoin blockchain caused by the introduction of expensive and highly efficient Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) hardware. By randomizing the order of 16 different hashing algorithms, Raven makes ASICs difficult to develop, allowing room for anyone to be able to mine the Raven network without the disadvantage of competing with ASIC hardware. The Raven team has also committed to change the hashing algorithms if a Raven ASIC miner is ever developed.

Team

  • Full team can be found [here].
  • "Ravencoin which launched on January 3rd, 2018, was primarily funded through Overstock’s Medici Ventures. To this day, the core developers are still associated with Medici, and Overstock’s placement of ‘Millions of Dollars’ into Ravencoin allows the association of meaningful value with the launch."
