Maxcoin is an alternative cryptocurrency launched in 2014. It aims to be a viable alternative to bitcoin and litecoin. The project has a strong focus on fairness, with a zero percent pre-mine and a fast retarget rate initially to combat instamining. At block 200, the Kimoto Gravity Well implementation was used for retargeting.
One of the notable features is that it employs the Keccak hashing algorithm from the SHA-3 family, which was chosen as the successor or alternative to SHA-2. This means that Maxcoin cannot be mined using SHA-256 bitcoin ASICs or scrypt-based rigs, giving individuals a greater opportunity to participate in the mining process.
