What is PoC?
PoC is the consensus algorithm that using the local PC hard disk’s spare space to mine. It’s similar to PoW, but using the capacity to mine. PoC adopts hard disk as the consensus algorithm’s foundation to lower the entry barrier, which means that everyone can participate in the innovation of decentralization by using their own personal computer to mine. So that Nakamoto Satoshi’s vision can partially come true. Each participant in PoC can be a role to think, support or even transfer the whole system.
What is Diskcoin?
Diskcoin is a scalable peer-to-peer crypto currency system that is more energy efficient than Bitcoin, retaining most of the features of Bitcoin, such as peer-to-peer networks, minimal network architecture, and security. Diskcoin uses the Conditioned Proof Of Capacity ( CPoC ) consensus algorithm to reduce the consumption of electricity and lower the entry barriers in the process of crypto currency production, which is more decentralized, without affecting security.
DISC Features
Energy saving and environmental friendly CPoC
Thanks to the Conditioned Proof Of Capacity (CPoC) consensus algorithm , Diskcoin is hundreds of times more energy efficient than most cryptocurrencies.
More decentralized
Diskcoin uses Conditioned Proof Of Capacity (CPoC) consensus algorithm, so Diskcoin is mined with low power hard drives instead of energy hungry CPUs, GPUs and ASICs, and hard drives are cheap and easily accessible. Miners could use unused space on their hard drives to mine Diskcoin.
The Dynamic Equilibrium Staking
Miners need to Stake the corresponding Diskcoins to get the most benefit. And the proportion of coins that need Staking is not simply fixed or decrease progressively. Instead, an algorithm named DES ( the Dynamic Equilibrium Staking ) algorithm is used to adjust the staking percentage according to the difficulty of mining.
