Greetings everybody!

Thank you for considering my CCS proposal.

Who?

I am a passionate member of the Monero community looking to make an impact to the best of my abilities.

What?

While personally mining for Monero is beneficial, I believe I can have a bigger impact of the ecosystem by spreading the word of our new hashing algorithm. I believe there is a huge untapped potential for hash power in underutilized data-centers around the world. I want to reach out to these hundreds of data centers informing them about the potential for profit during off-hours or downtime. I will do this by personally sending out emails and phone calls to these data service providers and serve as a first contact point for assistance in installing and operating their rigs.

Why?

The network hashrate is an obvious indicator of the vitality of any cryptocurrency network. As the first CPU-oriented hashing network, it is imperative that we capture as much of the CPU market before another network captures this computational power. In terms of security, this could potentially provide a huge upside in network hashrate. I also personally believe that the value of a cryptocurrency is closely, if not directly, tied to the computational power dedicated to its security. These reasons are why I believe the Monero society would benefit greatly from this proposal.

The Proposal and Milestones

3 Milestones consist of contacting the following 291 data service providers. I plan to contact approxiamtely 3 each day and to complete the entire outreach project in 3 months time.
