But it causes problems for pool hoppers, which on the long run should demotivate them. The coin launched with a long solo mining phase which was well announced previously, that was perfect for smaller miners, currently with this price level it is clear that people with 1-2 gpu's and higher electricity costs will not profit from mining here. Either you mine because you believe in this, or mine something more profitable and buy VNLs from BTC earned elsewhere.

Ofcourse if you are a developer and can further optimize your miners like Wolf0 can, you could still potentially profit (not much), but honestly the price is 2 low currently compared to what the coin will offer in the future.

We simply have no hype and also don't intend to cause huge hype waves since we still consider this a beta.

Every algo will produce heat when fully optimized, but I wouldn't call cards running at 70C hot. Consider a better cooling and not staking tons of cards next to eachother

Difficulty is just 1 of the 2 factors that determines the supply, read my last comment.

That is what they think, but this isn't accurate. Difficulty isn't the only thing moving here, but blocktimes. Jumping on an off with a huge hash won't get them any advantage here, read about the difficulty retargeting in the OP and in the whitepaper.

Good job mate, I'm on 1024 --xintensity (4096 and 2048 gave me HW-s) and -w 256 and got the 159 MH/s with the 270x. Send me an addy in PM and I'll tip some.

Edit: got HW error with 1024 also with -w 256, trying out some different settings. -w 128 gives 120 MH/s hash so that's not an option.

Edit2: doesn't matter how hard I try, I get HW errors after sometime. Tried every combination of -w -X -g etc (only way to get high hash is with -w 256)

14.12 caralyst with the dlls added to the sgminer

My card doesn't seem to like -w 256.

Thank you very much, I'll try it out and report back!

I'm using 14.12 and sadly I don't get a higher hash with his .cl file, it mostly only goes lower compared to the original .cl, played with every -w and --xintensity setting (also memclocks and -g)

I'm using an ASUS 270x and tried --xintensity 1024 and 4096 and -w 64 and 256, but neither option helped me to get over 123 MH/s which I got with the original .cl also.

Could you maybe upload your bin file?

John is working nonstop on the next updates, please check for his latest github commits.

What we can say at this point is that the latest updates all point to the preparation of the mobile wallets coming (iOS and android) and a true multitier network.

Screenshots posted by John from the new, staking and very energy efficient (uses almost 0% cpu) iOS wallet:

You can tweet Richie and Bittrex, they have been following VNL development for some time now. Probably waiting in the shadows

Np, you can still play with -w and --xintensity to gain the maximum out of the current public miner. Currently I'm hashing with 123 MH/s with my 270x.

You won't get 500 mh/s with the public miner if you don't optimize it by yourself. That's his own private miner and you would know this if you would read back a few pages.

Not sure what your problem is, but tell me what wallet you need and I'll upload it to mega.

I have no problems downloading the wallets on windows/chrome.

Please jump on irc and throw in your question. Sadly I don't own nvidia cards, but MrM4D and xCore are mining with them + they made the public miner.
