Mining algorithm: ISCO (adaptive algorithm inspired by Monero, Scrypt and ProgPow)
CPU‑only or not: No, hybrid (adaptive CPU + GPU)
Brief description: The project positions itself as “blockchain banking” for financing scientific research. The main feature is the ISCO engine, which automatically adapts to the available hardware (CPU or GPU) for maximum efficiency.
Where to mine/pool: Pools and solo mining are available; nodes are mentioned in regions: EU, US, Asia and HK (Hong Kong).
Community reaction: A conflict is observed: users accuse the project of hidden Monero mining due to closed source code, to which developers respond that the code will become open on the 45th day of the project.

Main topic of the new posts: Developers report a spontaneous “mutation” of the ISCO algorithm that led to a significant acceleration of block generation.
Key news/updates:
Block time decreased from ~20 seconds to 10 seconds (2× speedup).
Due to the faster blocks, current mining profitability (effective hash rate) has effectively doubled.
The mutation process is unpredictable: it can last from several hours to a full day.
New miner version v1.0.2 released.
Developers emphasize that the closed‑source nature allows the algorithm to change its variables spontaneously.
Problems/complaints: None found.
Overall tone: Positive (focus on increased mining profitability).
