== Coin launch / structure ==
=== Where's the whitepaper? ===
[https://github.com/RavenProject/Ravencoin/blob/master/roadmap/README.md https://github.com/RavenProject/Ravencoin/blob/master/roadmap/README.md]
All papers are linked to from [https://ravencoin.org/whitepaper/ https://ravencoin.org/whitepaper/] === Are there Masternodes? ===No. === When is the ICO? ===There isn't going to be an ICO. Ravencoin is a fair launch, open source project focused on building good code with a good use-caseThe [[Development | Development section]] also summarizes all roadmap phases.
=== Was it pre-minedAny ICO/Premine/Masternodes? ===No . Ravencoin had a fair launch, open source project focused on building good code with a good use- it case. 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.
=== 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? ===
=== 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.
=== Why is the difficulty going up / down? ===
The network tries to maintain 1 block being solved per minute over 2016 blocks before retargeting difficulty. If miners have found more than 1 block per minute during the previous 2016 blocks the network difficulty will go up to bring the average block time back to 1 per minute. If miners are solving blocks slower the opposite will happen.
=== What hash rate should I be getting for my cards? ===
There are some conservative numbers on [http://whattomine.com/ WhatToMine]
