Yes, I still haven't donated, because of three reasons:
1) The increased pps multiplier isn't going to be worth my 5BTC donation if it's only 2x time faster than CPU - so we need to at least have some clue.
2) There are people already releasing CUDA miners and they may be able to release it before this, which will give you zero advantage as Primecoin client will auto-adjust difficulty very quickly when a spike happens, so the short window of profit is gone when all GPU miners jump in.
3) While I have no issue trusting the OP, we still have nothing to look at to even consider donation or not, at this stage donation is pure gamble on thin air IMHO.

haven't noticed that, as I only started mining it seriously since 8.0, was was the % of decrease back then?

Anyone noticed a huge drop by 40% in PPS mining? I just noticed this thing taking place at exactly 16:24 UTC July 21. First I thought it was the VPS provider that did something to my account, but upon inspection with other services (I use three different VPS instance providers) and including my local rig, the drop was indeed confirmed to be client related. I use mikaelh's HP5 client, but this drop has been confirmed on HP4 as well.  As you can see, PPS dropped from 14k to 8k pps. CAUSE? I predict it has something to do with new difficulty increase to 9.0? Anyone got any other findings? |

So, the way some people here use the term "centralized" has nothing to do with how the protocol functions, whether it is based on a peer-to-peer network etc.
When people say closed source here they mean the source code will not allow other developers to modify for 12 months. But from end-user point of view in all other aspects, it's a decentralised system just like Bitcoin (you have control of your client and what you want it to do), but with multiple chains (instead of single block chain like Bitcoin). Yes, it's peer-to-peer network protocol. Not much info yet, but here is quick infographic with some explanation how it works: http://ecoinomist.com/emunie-block-tree-transaction-chain-infographic |

Most people moaning in this thread don't seem to understand the concept of "agile" deployment. No one ever said it's going to be closed source forever, shall I make it bold and clear that it's ONLY CLOSED_SOURCE FOR 12 MONTHS?
Why is closed source a requirement of agile deployment? Because automated update can roll out anytime during this closed-source period. This will include things like: New features (exchange for example, bug fixes, new security enhancements, etc.) eMunie is alot more complex than Bitcoin, and it does aim to do a lot more, to function like a "real" currency with similar or better features than traditional banks can offer. That fact alone will force it to be closed source for sometime. The alt-copy is actually only a secondary concern, not so major as many people think. |

Then it is centralised, hence totally pointless, for 12 months. Come back in 12 months, thanks. Ok, see you in 12 months then  |

Creator of eMunie Logo
Nice logo. A pity it is blatantly copied from Internet Explorer, with a hint of Firefox. They say jealousy is the best form of flattery  Ps. the pic you see is my personal avatar, not even the logo. Here is the official logo. |

Anyone having problems with my guide, just reinstall the whole Ubuntu 13.04 OS from fresh start. The guide is designed to work perfectly on fresh install of any Ubuntu 13.04. Even if you get client crash, it will be restarted automatically with cron job every minute, so downtime is really minimal. If you get error on make file compiling, it's likely due to lack of RAM and you need to run the swap command. If for whatever reason you can't get fresh Ubuntu install, run these before following my guide: cd
rm -rf gmp-5.1.2.tar.bz2 gmp-5.1.2
rm -rf primecoin-0.1.1-hp5.tar.bz2 primecoin-0.1.1-hp5 primecoin
sudo apt-get remove python-software-properties screen python-rrdtool python-pygame python-scipy python-twisted python-twisted-web python-imaging build-essential libglib2.0-dev libglibmm-2.4-dev python-dev autoconf automake ncurses-dev sysstat gcc-mingw32 libmysql++-dev cloog-ppl build-essential automake gcc libevent-dev libmemcached-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev zlib1g-dev libjansson-dev curl memcached libtool unzip freeglut3-dev libxi-dev libxmu-dev build-essential freeglut3-dev libxi-dev libxmu-dev mpich2 libdb-dev libminiupnpc-dev libboost-all-dev libdb++-dev git uthash* libgmp3-dev
sudo apt-get remove -y build-essential m4 libssl-dev libdb++-dev libboost-all-dev libminiupnpc-dev
sudo apt-get remove build-essential libssl-dev libboost-all-dev libdb5.3++-dev -y
sudo apt-get remove libgmp-dev
The screenshots of block finding on my site are from actual DO droplets ($5 and $20 ones - they have never crashed so far for me, been running for nearly a week now, and upgrading from hp2, hp3, hp4 to hp5 without OS resinstall). Note: you must run everything exactly as my guide, if you change OS to something I haven't tested and I'm just a Linux newbie, so can't help much with other compiling problems on CentOS, etc. |

Funny, our opinion was asked and we said we did not want a pre-mine, close source shitcoin. Then they complain it was bad-mouthed. Don't ask for opinions if you won;t like the answer.
When exactly did "we" or "I" ask for your opinion? or was it you who openly decided to speak your "opinion" OUT-LOUD Sure, there was discussion about this in the forum, asking the community to decide. And "we" decided it should be closed source for at least 6-12 months. |

Ok, I'm not sure if this is just luck or not, but my simple linux XPM compiling using the same HP5 client seems to yield a lot more blocks:  VS. this compilation guide (exact spec and number of machines as above, only compiled differently):  |

take it or leave it, eMunie's target market is not you guys - the ones mourning and complaining how life is unfair whenever you open your mouth, but do nothing to stop the evil...

Having trouble compiling primecoind...I get the following:
make: *** [bitcoinrpc.o] Error 4
It's a vps, 512mb ram, and 1gb swap, fresh boot. Ubuntu 12.10
I could compile it with ecoinomist's guide previously, but this one won't budge.
Updated the guide, it also works with hp5 version. http://ecoinomist.com/xpm-primecoin-mining-guide-on-linux |

It will be the first digital currency to have integrated decentralised exchange right inside the client. Dan (the developer) is currently working on first beta client to handle basic transactions, integrated exchange is scheduled to be released soon on second phase if I'm correct.

Woudn't it be better to: After step 2? |

Updated the guide a bit to add -march=native to CXXFLAGS. If you already used the guide, you only need to do step 3 again to optimize for host CPU.
Awesome, have sent you 13 XPM to thank for this guide. I will donate a lot more later on Transaction ID: e9e80fd0deab2878d2918e98d28291a04475044f6a64d35e0d95b5f1d8cc856b-000 |

Thanks for a complete guide!

Have you been reading no understanding anything at all so far? Of course someone or several people are going to release GPU miners, that's not an argument. I just think the obviously greedy idea of "send me bitcoin and get early access" is a shitty one.
If OP need money so bad he should just use the GPU miner for a day or two by himself and then release it freely. Soliciting payment for early access is just dirty, stupid and will lead to GPU clusters being the first to run it, possibly unnecciarily forking the coin.
Everywhere I see your post I smell jelly  OP can ask for donation to boost his reward, why not? After all he knows ppl are willing to pay. |
