Welcome Historical. Historical has been with magi for a while; he helped the magipool https://www.magipool.info, including the multipool: https://multi.magipool.info. We have been discussing the cloud mining idea, but nothing more we can talk about it at this moment.

Nice Joe. Team has become a lot bigger. Together we can achieve more!

Thanks all (couldn't post thanks to each post ), that's amazing. Funds raised for PoM so far: 13,088 XMG (additional funds will be from team).

Btw, let's avoid using "PoM-II", it could be confusing with PoS-II (also nothing special from "II" except this is 2nd movement).

Might be right. So we can call it: the new PoM?

Would PoM2 be too simplistic? Do we really need an acronym anyway? How about "The second XMG Proof of Mining campaign"?

Cut and paste to minimize typing

A warm welcome to Historical. What a team!

Another acronym here: PoM#2; PoM^2

I like PoM^2 !

[Spexx]

I like PoM^2 !

PoM squared? I think we are getting to the root of the problem.

Ok. I'll get my coat ....

[dsyahputera]

PoM² also, right?

Then just PoM2 for simply like you said.

Lol. You might have missed my joke really awful pun

I'd think "The second XMG Proof of Mining campaign" will be fine, even 2nd Proof of Mining Campaign will do in my opinion.

I like creative thoughts, PoM² and the prior symbol: Σ

How do you guys think about a currency sign for magi? Examples:
 Σ, m or M, adding vertical bar on Σ is another option; we might consider using two parallel vertical or horizontal bars too.

I do like the Sigma with a horizontal strikethrough and that is probably the easiest to use while maintaining compatibility across multiple platforms. That makes it a logical choice imho.

In truth, I rather like just a plain capital Sigma since my mathematical brain interprets this as "the sum of" which seems appropriate in many ways. Having said that, single or twin horizontal or vertical bars carry the message of "a currency".

On keyboards, one usually finds the £ and $ symbols (for example) have a single bar, while the symbols are also often written with twin bars. Either version is instantly recognized as the currency, so I would say that either version is perfectly ok. The twin horizontal bar can be synthesized with [sigma][backspace][equals] in ASCII.

Just for fun, here's a small challenge for you. I will donate 20 XMG to the first person to post up the Sigma with a twin horizontal bar. Ready ... steady ... GO!

 I like the two. An acronym is better than a long sentance.

Also if you want to rent my hashrate on Mining Rig Rentals.com just send me a PM so I will send you the link and add you 1 hour bonus !

Nice! Is this what you mean Spexx?

The code below (CSS Styling) works on all recent browsers and produces the Σ character with a double stroke.

Code:

<style>span.d-strike {position: relative;}span.d-strike div.the-char {position: absolute;top: 7px; /* Depends on the font size */left: 0;border-top: 3px double black;width: 100%;height: 100%;}</style><span class="d-strike"><div class="the-char"></div>&#x03A3</span>

Just make an empty text file with .html extension on your computer, copy-paste the above code and open the file with the browser.


Also an image 20x1 pixels can also be used with the folowing code to make the double stroke effect:

Code:

del {background: url('/images/the_image.gif') repeat-x left 0.72em;}

This method should be font-size independent.

See here: http://jsfiddle.net/NGLN/FtvCv/1/


Of course there are also combining unicode characters and there is a "combining double vertical stroke overlay" character (U+20E6) but there is not a combining "double horizontal stroke overlay" one.

panosst, the html code is nice, thanks. I made few changes:

Code:

<div>
<style>span.d-strike-1 {position: relative;}span.d-strike-1 div.the-char {position: absolute;top: 5px; /* Depends on the font size */left: 0.1;border-top: 2.5px double black;width: 100%;height: 100%;}</style><span class="d-strike-1"><div class="the-char"></div><font face="times" size="3">&#x03A3</font></span>
<style>span.d-strike-11 {position: relative;}span.d-strike-11 div.the-char {position: absolute;top: 5px; /* Depends on the font size */left: 0.5;border-top: 2.5px double black;width: 90%;height: 100%;}</style><span class="d-strike-11"><div class="the-char"></div><font face="Helvetica" size="3">&#x03A3</font></span>
</div>


<div>
<style>span.d-strike-2 {position: relative;}span.d-strike-2 div.the-char {position: absolute;top: 2px; /* Depends on the font size */left: 0.1;border-top: 2.5px double black;width: 65%;height: 100%;}</style><span class="d-strike-2"><div class="the-char"></div><font face="times" size="3">&#x03A3</font></span>
<style>span.d-strike-21 {position: relative;}span.d-strike-21 div.the-char {position: absolute;top: 2.6px; /* Depends on the font size */left: 0.7;border-top: 2.5px double black;width: 65%;height: 100%;}</style><span class="d-strike-21"><div class="the-char"></div><font face="Helvetica" size="3">&#x03A3</font></span>

</div>


<div>
<style>span.d-strike-3 {position: relative;}span.d-strike-3 div.the-char {position: absolute;top: 7.5px; /* Depends on the font size */left: 0.2;border-top: 2.5px double black;width: 65%;height: 100%;}</style><span class="d-strike-3"><div class="the-char"></div><font face="times" size="3">&#x03A3</font></span>
<style>span.d-strike-31 {position: relative;}span.d-strike-31 div.the-char {position: absolute;top: 7.25px; /* Depends on the font size */left: 0.5;border-top: 2.5px double black;width: 65%;height: 100%;}</style><span class="d-strike-31"><div class="the-char"></div><font face="Helvetica" size="3">&#x03A3</font></span>
</div>

Also latex is very nice to do the job. An example:

Code:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{amsmath,amssymb,bm}%AMS math formulas and symbols, bold
\usepackage{graphicx} % for \scalebox macro
\usepackage{color}
\begin{document}
$\mathrel{\ooalign{\hss$\Sigma$\hss\cr%
  \kern0ex\raise0.9ex\hbox{\scalebox{0.5}{${\bm{-}}$}}}}$
$\mathrel{\ooalign{\hss$\Sigma$\hss\cr%
  \kern0ex\raise0.1ex\hbox{\scalebox{0.5}{${\bm{-}}$}}}}$

$\mathrel{\ooalign{\hss$\Sigma$\hss\cr%
  \kern0ex\raise0.9ex\hbox{\scalebox{0.5}{${\bm{=}}$}}}}$
$\mathrel{\ooalign{\hss$\Sigma$\hss\cr%
  \kern0ex\raise0.1ex\hbox{\scalebox{0.5}{${\bm{=}}$}}}}$

$\mathrel{\ooalign{\hss$\Sigma$\hss\cr%
  \kern0.1ex\raise0.45ex\hbox{\scalebox{0.5}{$\bm{{=}}$}}}}$
$\mathrel{\ooalign{\hss$\Sigma$\hss\cr%
  \kern0ex\raise0.325ex\hbox{\scalebox{0.8}{${{=}}$}}}}$

$\mathrel{\ooalign{\hss$\Sigma$\hss\cr%
  \kern0.65ex\raise0.3ex\hbox{\scalebox{0.85}{${\lvert\!\rvert}$}}}}$
$\mathrel{\ooalign{\hss$\Sigma$\hss\cr%
  \kern0.15ex\raise0.3ex\hbox{\scalebox{0.85}{${\lvert\!\rvert}$}}}}$
\end{document}

The above two methods create the following symbols (1st - html, 2nd - latex):





Which one you like? Seems like the vertical bar version not looking good.

Is there a way to create a text symbol? That'll be easy to use, just copy & paste.
