for questions about sequences and series, e.g. convergence, closed form expressions, etc. Note that there is a different tag for spectral sequences, and also note that MathOverflow is not for homework. Please consider consulting the online encyclopedia for integer sequences, if you are trying to identify a given sequence that you have found in your research.

What problem would you base your mathcoin on?
Maybe finding good error-correcting codes. For instance, given $q, n, M$, search for a set of $M$ strings, each of length $n$ from a $q$-sized alphabet, with largest $d$, where $d =$ minimum pairwise …

Is there an entropy proof for bounding a weighted sum of binomial coefficients?
As you said, the sum is $\Pr[X \leq \alpha n]$ where $X$ is drawn from a Binomial distribution with $n$ trials having $p$ probability of success. Bounds on this sum (for $\alpha < p$) are called "tail …
