Title: Mine YAC on gpu :) Post by: tytanick on May 13, 2013, 10:14:45 AM Hi,
Is there anybody that could tell me how to mine YAC on gpu ? Ofcourse if u say so i wont tell anyone else. PM ME :P P.S - Dont troll me pls :DDD Title: Re: Mine YAC on gpu :) Post by: bengx on May 13, 2013, 10:56:53 AM Add a - and a | to the C in CPU and you'll get a GPU that can mine YAC!
Kidding :P Title: Re: Mine YAC on gpu :) Post by: evilscoop on May 13, 2013, 11:01:00 AM you cant atm...
yac uses scrypt-jane, and is/was designed to be cpu mined only.. If you could, it would be the end of yac, as its core ethos would be pointless Title: Re: Mine YAC on gpu :) Post by: Praxis on May 13, 2013, 11:23:40 AM you cant atm... yac uses scrypt-jane, and is/was designed to be cpu mined only..

ill quote from yacoin site :- Quote guarantee long-term protection against GPU and ASIC mining Title: Re: Mine YAC on gpu :) Post by: tacotime on May 13, 2013, 11:35:57 AM you cant atm... yac uses scrypt-jane, and is/was designed to be cpu mined only..

Both chacha20 and keccak have faster throughputs than salsa20 and sha2-256, and the value of N right now should provide extremely good GPU performance. Basically the first person to get a large GPU mining farm on this will shred the network -- assuming this hasn't already been done. Title: Re: Mine YAC on gpu :) Post by: evilscoop on May 13, 2013, 11:37:28 AM then yac is dead, as thats the whole point......

Doesn't matter -- because of the TMTO tradeoff and higher GPU memory bandwidth I doubt you'll see a point where GPU implementation is slower. Once you have the GPU implementation adjusting it for higher N values will be trivial. Title: Re: Mine YAC on gpu :) Post by: Joe_Bauers on May 13, 2013, 12:54:18 PM GPU mining only made Litecoin stronger. I don't see why the same wouldn't happen to YAC. I'm really surprised someone hasn't already released something. But to the OP's original request, I can almost guarantee that someone is already mining YAC with GPU's.
