BITCOIN DIAMOND bitcoin's fork
WHAT IS BITCOIN DIAMOND?
Bitcoin Diamond (BCD) is a fork of Bitcoin that occurs at the predetermined height of block 495866 and therewith a new chain will be generated as the BCD. Bitcoin Diamond miners will begin creating blocks with a new proof-of-work algorithm, and will consecutively develop and improve the transaction speed based on original features of BTC. This will cause a bifurcation of the Bitcoin blockchain. The original Bitcoin blockchain will continue on unaltered, but a new branch of the blockchain will split off from the original chain. It shares the same transaction history with Bitcoin until it starts branching and coming into a unique block from which it diverges. As a result of this process, a new cryptocurrency was created which we call ‘Bitcoin Diamond’.
ALGORITHM X13
X13 Hash Algorithm
X13 is a modern hashing algorithm.
This algorithm uses 13 rounds of hashing with 13 different hash-functions (blake, bmw, groestl, jh, keccak, skein, luffa, cubehash, etc.), which makes it one of most reliable in a modern cryptocurrencies world.
Extended cryptocurrency defense
Specialists do not exclude availability of SHA256 hacking, which can jeopardize all bitcoin network. To hack X13 one must find vulnerability in all 13 hashes, which is much more difficult. Even if one of these hashes would be compromised, it would be just a signal to developers for to analyze the problem and change this hash.
X13 fully protected from ASIC. Difficulty of developing is due these same thirteen algorithms.
