All papers are linked to from [https://ravencoin.org/whitepaper/ https://ravencoin.org/whitepaper/]. The [[Development | Development section]] also summarizes all roadmap phases.
=== Are there Any ICO/Premine/Masternodes? ===No. === When is the ICO? ===There isn't going to be an ICO. Ravencoin is had a fair launch, open source project focused on building good code with a good use-case. === Was it pre-mined? ===No - it It was [https://twitter.com/brucefenton/status/948682276229074945 announced on twitter] and discussed at a few several meetups months prior to thatlaunch. There's a timeline of some of the these events [https://cdn.knightlab.com/libs/timeline3/latest/embed/index.html?source=1NKsWx5sSG90GjbbwZaOav6D_bAOdnlBjPBAjJtZzXr4&font=Default&lang=en&initial_zoom=2&height=650 here]
Further points about the launch where made on [https://raven.wiki/w/index.php?title=The_Fenton_Files&mobileaction=toggle_view_desktop#6_May_2018_-_Telegram Telegram on the 6th May 2018]
===The devs should do <insert topic here> / Why aren't the devs doing <insert topic here>? ===
This is an open source project. You can do whatever you want with it. Read [[The Fenton Files]] for more thoughts about the coin. The devs are focused on the code development inline with the roadmap. Members of the community can build tools and websites around the coin that they think could be useful.
=== How come some people have 100,000's if it wasn't premined? ===
There were people that started when difficulty was well under 100 rather than where it is now. Some people rented hundreds of cloud CPU's to mine it before the GPU miner software was developed for the community. Some still have huge gpu rigs pointed at pools. All coins in circulation have been generated the same way, fair mining. Furthermore, the community has seen extremely large investments from Overstock and further anonymous investors.
=== What's the max supply? ===
=== When will RVN be on more / better exchanges? ===
RVN is listed on multiple sound exchanges.
There's an exchange liaison group on discord with a number of people talking to exchanges and software and hardware wallets.
The group has a working document [[Exchange | Exchanges]] and an [[Exchange FAQ]] on this wiki. === What's the going rate for RVN? === Check the exchanges above.
== Mining ==
=== How do I mine Ravencoin? ===
There is dedicated '''[[mining]]''' page, including links to the opensource mining software for both nVidia and AMD cards. The [[Guides]] page contains multiple how to videos.
=== Can I mine with my CPU / CPU or GPU mining which is better? ===
CPU mining is not worthwhile anymore. You can mine with your CPU using the wallet (''setgenerate true -1'' to use all your CPU CPUs, however you are very extremely unlikely to mine a block). The network hash rate is now pretty very large so a single CPU isn't going to contribute much. Obviously, if you've got a lot of CPU's or high-end ones you may earn get lucky. Generally, people are running GPU's in one of the [[Pools]].
=== Which miner is best? ===
=== Which pool is best? ===
All the [[Pools]] are pretty good, and as with most things tech, they all have issues from time to time. On average you'll get a larger share of fewer blocks with the smaller pools and a smaller share of more blocks with the larger pools. There are support channels for most of the pools on discord[https://discordapp.com/invite/jn6uhur Discord]. The pools can be compared [https://www.rvnstats.info/d/TcDzUYmmz/x16r-ravencoin-mining-pool-statistics-v1-3 here].
Mining on a big pool will give us you many tiny payouts, vs mining on a small pool will give us you fewer large payouts. Over time it will average out and we you will earn the same amount of coins.
A good recommendation when choosing a pool is any pool not in the top 3 highest hashrate, but any other pool with at least around 0,5% of network hash rate so the pool will hit some blocks each day. Or if we want to help build up a tiny pool, go for an even smaller one.
