Raptoreum crypto project (RTM) has been in development for quite some time and just recently officially launched its mainnet. The goal of Raptoreum is to create a fast and secure cryptocurrency that anyone can easily use, but even more important is to create an easy-to-use asset platform that allows anyone to tokenize anything (tokens that are not fungible) in just a few clicks. RTM supports POW mining using a custom algorithm called Ghostrider, currently only on processors as well as smartnodes. The Ghostrider algorithm is a combination of algorithms from the X16R and CryptoNight families, cycling in random and not-so-random patterns used to achieve consensus on the coin generation and transaction chain. Although the Ghostride algorithm currently runs only on CPUs, a transition to GPU mining is very likely in the not-too-distant future.
