Signatum is a cryptocurrency aimed at offering seamless utility on both public and TOR markets. Signatum is designed to be easily integrated into several applications, including payment platforms, exchanges, and marketplaces. Signatum features the new SkunkHash Raptor algorithm that enables strong ASIC-resistance during the proof of work phase and encourages fairness for miners and investors alike by driving broad coin distribution and ownership while creating real-world application.
The first phase of Signatum is the proof-of-work phase. The proof of work phase will last for the first 100,000 blocks, or approximately 100 days.
The hybrid PoS and PoW phase will last for 1,500 blocks. This phase will begin once PoW reaches block 98,500 and will end once miners find and complete block 100,000. The hybrid phase is estimated to last for approximately 1.5 days.
Once the available 100,000 PoW blocks have been mined, Signatum will transition into a full PoS coin. Users staking coins through their local wallet will receive a fixed 5% APR with payouts based on the number of coins staked in the wallet.
The internet is a continuously evolving community. Today’s innovations become yesterday’s history. The right to anonymous internet access is regularly challenged and is necessary to protect. The Signatum project offers full anonymity to users as a free selected service by offering completely anonymous nodes that do not track or forward origin IP addresses while utilizing TOR exit nodes to protect themselves. The websites and block chain explorers do not keep track of access logs (they have been disabled). Each service that is part of the Signatum project has internet access from the Deep Web via TOR.
Here's a brief overview of our future plans & in progress developments.
Proof of Work will ensure that all minable coins are fairly distributed until the 100,000th block is mined. Signatum will then switch to a full Proof of Stake system where 5% of staked coins are accumulated annually with payouts occurring every 5 minutes.
To secure the Signatum network even further, Tor Nodes will continue to be added to increase network health as well as anonymity.
A marketplace that will enable people and companies to sell products and services around the world using Signatum as a currency.
This makes SIGT easily accessible for transactions from anywhere in the world.
A dedicated Signatum exchange site will be created where users can buy and sell Signatum.
Creating a SignatumPay feature enables merchants to connect directly to the Signatum network and utilize it as a payment option. Combining this feature with SIGTs fast transaction speeds will make the currency more than ideal for merchants to utilize it as a payment option.
Crowdfunding through cryptocurrency is becoming more popular and as a result, Signatum aims to create a fair and balanced crowdfunding platform, where investors and entrepreneurs can raise funds for their projects, communicate business objectives and provide updates on project status.
Signatum introduces a brand-new GPU-optimized algorithm, further differentiating it from other mineable coins. Signatum’s SkunkHash Raptor algorithm combines four different hashing functions and one balancer. The hashing functions combined to create this unique algorithm are Skein, CubeHash, Fugue, and GOST-Streebog. Raptor is the developer’s fingerprint and is used to monitor proliferation of the SkunkHash algorithm. The mix of algorithms increases the security of Signatum’s network significantly by increasing the complexity of the hashing function.
Signatum is purely a community driven project where members take part as a team to discuss current and future developments. Every member in the community has a voice and are free to give suggestions and contribute to the current situation and future development of the project. Just like any other community project, the hardest part is to materialize the ideas and suggestions and that is where the community leaders come in. Community leaders are the members who contribute to the core development of services and the project design itself. The community leaders are very vocal in the project because they believe strongly in the success of the project.
All members present in official Discord and Telegram channels have been kind enough to come up with ideas and suggestion based on their real life professional and personal experiences. Signatum community has people from all walks of life. Whether its designing, programming, IT infrastructure, general management; they are active and contribute their best efforts.
Once something has been agreed upon in the community, designers and programmers get to work. The contributions are passed on to the concerned and reach the core developers who actually implement a component or a service.
After the implementation, the community discusses the state and makes comments and recommendations. If needed, it goes back to the drawing board and moves up to implementation again. This process is repeated until a consensus is achieved within the community.
Question: When will signatum be available on exchanges like Bittrex or Poloniex?
A: For now SIGT is being traded on https://yobit.net/en/trade/SIGT/BTC. We are applying to be listed on multiple other exchanges as we speak, no estimated date of when they will be completed.
Question: My wallet has connection issues, what can I do?
A: Windows users need to delete the peers.dat file in the following directory:
\AppData\Roaming\signatum
Question: Solo mining or mining pool?
A: The time for solo mining has passed, we recommend you to join a mining pool.
Question: GPU or CPU mining?
A: At this stage we definitely recommend you to use GPU's for mining SIGT.
Question: Is there any tutorial on how to mine SIGT?
A: Yes, please visit: http://cryptovore.com/2017/07/19/how-to-mine-signatum-sigt/
Question: How to mine SIGT with Nvidia and AMD GPU's on the same system at the same time?
A: We recommend you to use ccminer for Nvidia and sgminer for AMD Simultaneously. You need 2 batch files, one for Nvidia (pointing to ccminer) and the other for AMD (pointing to sgminer), then you may add this to the AMD batch: "--gpu-platform X" check which platform it is by chosing a number for X between 0-3.
Question: I am getting errors after a while or immediately after starting the batch file.
A: You may need to change/add some settings (intensity, etc.) to the batch file. Eventually you also have to make some adjustments (GPU/Memory speed & watt's) on your GPU with tools like MSI Afterburner, etc.
Question: How well do most used Nvidia cards perform (hash/s) mining SIGT?
A: It depends on the miner you use. Technical stats will be collected and posted here soon, so check back.
Question: When will Proof of Work (POW) end?
A: Proof of Work will end with Block 100,000.
Question: When will Proof of Stake (POS) begin?
A: It will start with Block 98,500 (hybrid POW/POS) and it will switch to POS only with Block 100,001
Question: What is the maximum SIGT supply?
A: 137,500,000.
Question: What will be the annual return on POS?
A: 5 % per year from the total amount of SIGT you own. More details on how to get those 5% annually will follow when its time.
Question: Where can I calculate the profitability of SIGT?
A: You can check that on https://whattomine.com/coins/191-sigt-skunkhash and on http://www.crypto-economy.net/mining-profitability-calculator/
Question: Will there be Masternodes?
A: Masternodes are not foreseen yet.
Question: How do I contact the developers?
