Title: [ANN] Wolf's GBT CPU HODL Miner - Bounty Fund Post by: FreeTrade on April 06, 2016, 04:39:35 AM After a round of all-night negotiations, The Wolf has agreed to provide the HOdlcoin community with an open-source, GBT CPU miner if a 1.25 BTC bounty can be raised.
GBT, Get Block Template, will support better decentralization for HOdlcoin as it allows clients to create the blocks to mine, making it more difficult for pools to block or control transactions. The miner will be capable of solo operation and will also run with compatible pools. I'm starting a fund here - https://blockchain.info/address/1WoLFzJJbzh5SrQSG2T3YHujCD2G2sN8J I'm kicking it off with a .25 BTC contribution and ask for your support for this development.

I hope this works out. I just do not have the Bitcoin to donate. :-\GBT, Get Block Template, will support better decentralization for HOdlcoin as it allows clients to create the blocks to mine, making it more difficult for pools to block or control transactions.

FT i would have donated if it was at the beginning, now this coin is wortless to mine, yes maybe there is some profit but you need to remember that when you run your cpu at full speed you ca not run your gpu, so you're actually losing money HOdl is still at the beginning. I mine about a block a day on my own with an i7 while mining directly from the wallet. This is not like Memorycoin that only rewards 2.9 MMC per block today. I mine that everyday though and still manage to make a decent amount that can easily be traded on Poloniex.Maybe someone needs to release a GPU miner instead. I doubt we will be seeing a GPU miner any time soon. GPUs do not receive the same bonus for AES instructions as CPUs do with AES-NI. That is not to say it would not be faster, but that it will not see a magnitude of increase on par with Bitcoin or Litecoin and it will require more power.Title: Re: [ANN] Wolf's GBT CPU HODL Miner - Bounty Fund Post by: samsmith16 on April 15, 2016, 07:13:42 PM I just added 0.1 BCT

For an excellent example of fucking up your goal with a custom cryptosystem because you don't know what you're doing while still using secure primitives, see WEP. I am aware of the issues FreeTrade had with MemoryCoin. How do you feel about his work on HOdlcoin in comparison?Title: Re: [ANN] Wolf's GBT CPU HODL Miner - Bounty Fund Post by: cryptoVIP on April 25, 2016, 08:09:28 AM Is that possible to make a GPU miner?

What would you have suggested in place of the current algorithm? ... A proper KDF would work... many are even tunable to different needs.Title: Re: [ANN] Wolf's GBT CPU HODL Miner - Bounty Fund Post by: tromp on April 26, 2016, 01:37:48 PM ...

Title: Re: [ANN] Wolf's GBT CPU HODL Miner - Bounty Fund Post by: in2tactics on April 27, 2016, 02:04:23 AM A forum isn't really the best place for this, but stop overthinking it. Stuff your whole block header, nonce included, in the "key" input that is transformed. @Wolf0 You are right. I was over thinking it.You never heard of scrypt? @tromp Honestly, I never actually looked at the scrypt algorithm. Yes, I have had my head in the sand for some time now. :-\Title: Re: [ANN] Wolf's GBT CPU HODL Miner - Bounty Fund Post by: samsmith16 on April 30, 2016, 08:01:05 PM We are up to

Feels like we're not going to make it any time soon and I think Wolf is ambivalent about this project.
Wolf, do you mind if I cancel this and put the funds in HODL promotion instead?

I don't, but you might want to return it to the donators, or at least make sure they're okay with it. Thanks Wolf! Anybody who wants their donation refunded, please let me know the transaction id and I'll refund it to the sending address. |
