Algorithm: Argon2, Scrypt, POS

BtcBob:
So while undertaking such a HUGE endevor. why not TOTALLY FUCK EVERYTHING Properly.. Just how?  We're currently a SCRYPT coin.. but why? Does it need to be, or should it be something different?

Maybe you you mine BOB using Gridseeds ..or an ASIC cube.. Maybe you don't Mine at all, but you still want to create something out of nothing.

As to the question of Algo: I could go two ways.

* KEEP IT SCRYPT: Miners gonna mine.. Why not, we all bought this shit, and it's still working (sorta), why not let it Hash4eva and reward those who keep the blocks moving.
* Proof of Slack: Essentially 'Proof of Stake' -   Spin them all out to a magic wallet address.. maybe with multiple signatures required to move 'em, and let it ride off into the Econocalysm. Use the PreMine for exchanging old wallet/coins, bounties and stimulation rewards.
Personally, I favor PoS and have ALWAYS wanted to enable some kinda Master Node system where only the 'Space Bankers' had to keep track of a Block Chain, and thus reaping reward: If that were even at all possible.

 The BIGGEST complaint pink-users have is that they DON'T/WONT download the block-chain.. and they shouldn't have to.

I seriously have no idea how PoS chains move anyhow.
BuZz say's its like a CPU mining thing.
I guess just without block solving rewards.

Looks to be about 80 total shitcoins running Scrypt.  Scrypt was supposed to be a memory hard password hash(ie GPU & ASICS resistant), it is not...  Argon2 is where itʻs at for CPU only right now.  Maybe 5 are Argon2 based.  The current implementations I see are pretty hideous.   Dropped on AbcXyZfuckBoyCoin...  Not impressed.  Shit like this... https://github.com/OpesCoin/OPES

A .pro build?  Still?  Like, why did you even make a coin when you havenʻt touched the source in 3 years.  Probably donʻt know what to do.  Thatʻs what happens when you have no idea where you start from.  What other turds are cooked into that shit.

EndCiv....  Yes, we know you would like to horde all the slack to yourself.  Gotta think outside your cave sometimes.  While youʻre at it, please find me one *competent* PoW implementation with a segwit capable codebase, other than Qtum.  Then show me the market cap of the highest all PoS coins, and the latest trends with masternode based coins.  Three words...  Active-Sloth-Networking....

EndCiv:
Why you like Argon2: Sell me please.
How is it being used to solve blocks and make chains.
Can it also be useful in hacking teh planet?

Making links for researching ARGON2:

* You Tube: VIDEO

* https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/5fhfx8/argon2_best_cryptocurrency_hash_function/   No details.. sounds like a lemon to me so far..


* LEMONCOIN: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1392177.0      inspiring -sigh  "winner of Pasword Hashing Competition and is one of the most secure algorithms available today."

* OPES OPES - NEW Argon2 algo - No ICO - CPU ONLY
* [ANN][AR2] Argon2Coin new PoW algo, CPU friendly

x_slacks:
Like I said, garbage implementations... On exact same code base as OpeCoin...  And both mix argon2 with another hash and do weird shit...  Now, are you doing this for a purpose, or just randomly smashing two hashes together?  Whatʻs the purpose?

Hereʻs a hint...  Look at their source.  All some 0.8 coins, building of a .pro...  You only prove exactly what I said.
