[Announcement] PEPEPOW Mining Algorithm Upgrade Incoming

The PEPEPOW network is approaching the transition to the hoohash-pepew mining algorithm. Based on the current network monitor, activation is expected in around 2 days, although the exact timing may still vary slightly depending on block production. Node operators and miners should begin preparing now. ### Network readiness Around 75% of nodes on the network […]

[Announcement] Proposal: Switch PoW to HooHash V110

Foztor has spoken with Tonto (owner of HTN & HooHash). If PEPEPOW adopts HooHash V110, we would gain: CUDA miner (NVIDIA) OpenCL miner (AMD/Intel, to be extended by Tonto) CPU miner (already available) This would finally bring full GPU mining support while keeping CPUs competitive. Pros –  High energy efficiency — lower wattage on both

[Announcement] Experienced chain splits and stalled sync, now network recovery !

Dear PEPEPOW Community, Over the past 24 hours, our blockchain experienced a major network disruption caused by a combination of outdated masternode payment data, stalled masternode sync, and issues related to SPORK21’s blacklist mechanism during initial block download (IBD). This resulted in chain splits, stalled sync, and some nodes ending up on different forks. How
