Header sync used to run when complete (right count of blocks received) or every 10 sec regardless. Sometimes 10 secs is not enough, especially when a big batch of blocks bodies is arriving at the same time. This tweaks the time-based heuristic just a bit to only ask for headers when stalled, meaning that the header head has not *progressed* for 10 seconds. * Fix bad header sync timeout logic * Improve stability of fast sync test Adds regular pings so that the 2 test servers know each others' heights (necessary to find most work peer). Stop mining on the first server once the 2nd kicks in. Avoids chasing a fast moving target on Cuckoo10. |

Grin
Grin is an in-progress implementation of the MimbleWimble protocol. Many characteristics are still undefined but the following constitutes a first set of choices:
- Clean and minimal implementation, aiming to stay as such.
- Follows the MimbleWimble protocol, which provides great anonymity and scaling characteristics.
- Cuckoo Cycle proof of work.
- Relatively fast block time (a minute).
- Fixed block reward over time with a decreasing dilution.
- Transaction fees are based on the number of Outputs created/destroyed and total transaction size.
- Smooth curve for difficulty adjustments.

Status
Grin is still an infant, much is left to be done and contributions are welcome (see below). Check our mailing list archives for the latest status.

Philosophy
Grin likes itself small and easy on the eyes. It wants to be inclusive and welcoming for all walks of life, without judgement. Grin is terribly ambitious, but not at the detriment of others, rather to further us all. It may have strong opinions to stay in line with its objectives, which doesn't mean disrespect of others' ideas.
We believe in pull requests, data and scientific research. We do not believe in unfounded beliefs.
