About Wisp

Gandalf86 edited this page Sep 26, 2018 · 19 revisions

Wisp is a fork of SpectreCoin that runs without development fees. At Spectrecoin, every 6th block reward goes to the project founder. This system was introduced in a hardfork on 2018-08-21 @ 22:00 GMT (Source). The Wisp project is a group of independent developers and community members who believe that users of a cryptocurrency should NOT be forced to give money to a single person (and neither to a small group of people for that matter). Instead, we strongly believe in freedom and decentralization, as these are the main points of cryptocurrencies.

The goal of Wisp is the original vision of Spectrecoin to build a solid privacy-focused cryptocurrency based on Proof-of-Stake, but with an even stronger focus on freedom, fairness and radical decentralization. As such we don't support centralized exchanges but encourage our users to use decentralized exchanges (DEX) instead. Our developers and active community members are volunteers or work based on unsolicited donations by other members. There is no central "team", instead everybody is encouraged to contribute what he or she can. You don't need permission to start working in the Wisp project, and if you can code and your contributions are good, you will get repository access.
