Tuckermint - A Radically Decentralized Alternative to Tendermint

Hi, A small group of democracy loving individuals from the Cosmos Telegram channel have banded together to form a more perfect union, free of centralization and the tyranny of corrupt whales. We are creating an alternative to the Tendermint Cosmos Hub, called Tuckermint . We are also creating an alternative to the Polkadot relay chain, called Tuckerdot . We will limit the token balance of each address to 1% of the total supply. We will reduce slashing penalties to 0% for both double signing and downtime. We will connect to the Cosmos Hub via IBC and show them true decentralization. Tuckerdot will allow unlimited parachains for free or the lowest possible price. We are aiming for full ledger support. We are starting with an ERC-20 token, now live on Ethereum Mainnet. Here is the token contract: https://etherscan.io/token/0x8bde81dd5e30b058b71362b50fad06e3fdace640 The ERC-20 token will convert directly to TuckerAtoms and TuckerDots. Please let me know if you’re interested in contributing to our radical democratic experiment. Thank you for your support. tuckermint.com Tuckermint A Radically Decentralized Alternative to Tendermint Cosmos and…

Can you elaborate on why you say Cosmos is centralized?

Also what do you mean by tyranny of corrupt whales?

NO

Why set the slashing percent to 0%? How does that help with decentralization?

0% slashing means that the incompetence of powerful validators cannot harm the innocent delegators. This means that average users won’t be scared to stake, increasing the userbase of the network. This is similar to FDIC insurance, in that the failure of large institutions will not financially ruin average individuals.

0% slashing means that the incompetence of dumb delegators will be harmed by powerful validators via double spend :slight_smile:

There are many ways around this issue.
We may use a trusted set of validators or something similar.

Decentralization and “trusted set of validators” don’t really gel well…

If you have a trusted set of validators you actually do not need to use Tendermint or any other BFT consensus. Just use a distributed database :slight_smile:

I just created a new version of the testnet contract with bulkMint functionality.
So token distribution is ready to go.

After signups close today, I will start preparing the mainnet launch.
It shouldn’t take long, maybe a few days.

Just a minor pedantic note - Tendermint isn’t a particular blockchain, so you can’t fork its state.

Maybe you intend to fork the Cosmos Hub?

JA
JaeKwonsCC
Sep 2019 3

We’re spinning up a new chain, the state will not be based on the existing token balances on Cosmos Hub.

It’s really an alternative to the Tendermint ecosystem, not a simple fork.
Specific technology choices are not yet crystallized.

We are watching all POS / IBC developments, including ETH 2.0, Polkadot, and Cosmos.

To much tuck distributed.
Almost 100% of tuck supply
Is this a joke
Total holders 989
Each holder got 1,114,827

Haha i also notice that

All of the TUCK supply was distributed.
The point is radical decentralization.

The nominal token supply doesn’t actually matter.
What matters is the percent of total TUCK that you own.

Anyone can make a coin with a supply of 1 token and distribute .000000001 to everyone.
Price per token means nothing.

If it is a good project, even if the initial supply is even, it will eventually tend to be centralized as most people are selfish and lazy.

If there is no value in the project, no one would care if you are centralized or not.

What we really care is how the tokenomics and game theory can keep the project grow while the power is relatively decentralized and sustainable in long term.

Easy for you to say since your Forbole company is a top 10 validator on Cosmos.

What makes you think that most people are selfish and lazy?

Did it ever occur to you that Tuckemint could have a more decentralized validator set? or are you just bashing it since you’re not part of its top 10 validators?

This is humanity. Most people tend to trust authority and follow without questioning. They are selfish as to maximize their own benefit than to consider the drawbacks it would bring to the whole ecosystem.

I don’t know anything of this project so I cannot comment on it. We all welcome new projects. Looking forward to be enlighten by how this project sustain the decentralization.

So far, Tuckermint distribution is far more decentralized than Tendermint Cosmos.

After reading about parachain auctions and limited parachain slots in Polkadot, we’ve decided to fork them as well.

The perverse incentives of Polkadot make Cosmos look like a charity.

The entire design is to force parachain devs to fight over a few artificially limited slots by trying to stake the most DOTs.

It’s as if only the top few validators were allowed to use Cosmos IBC.

Truly pathetic pandering to early investors.

Tuckermint is reborn!

I just created the TUCK CW20 token on Juno using Juno Mint.
This is the token address: Mintscan - Chain explorer by COSMOSTATION

Sunny, once CW20 tokens are implemented in Osmosis, please consider adding the TUCK token.

Here is the logo: https://i.imgur.com/AYsXeuz.jpg

Thanks!

Wasn’t the whole point that Tuckermint has to be its own chain, why is it on Juno???

JA

We tried to make our own chain, it didn’t work very well.
We have a much better shot at making a successful Juno project since we don’t need to run validators etc.

Thank you for your interest!
