Sounds good Baritus...it's worth a shot. You should ask for SRC payments only. Where can I get some?

Fully agree with CoinHoarder.
The peoples with pay for VPS and mine PrimeCoin it's botnet's or serious miner's? My opinion - they serious miners. IMO botnet's can't take control of PrimeCoint network until serious miner's with VPS mines PrimeCoin, because diff is to high and computers which controlled by botnet's in 80% cases it's a regular home users computers without much CPU power.
rdebourbon is working on a primecoin miner for the parallella (parallella.org). It is a $99 computer (essentially just cpu and cache on an ARM architecture) that can be infinitely parrallized. I think this may be the ideal primecoin miner by a $/XPM mined basis Interesting news - I have a parallella board coming sometime, as a Kickstarter invester. But I'm puzzled, if primecoin mining couldn't be made to work on a GPU with massive parallization, why should it work on a parallella board? Do you have any more details, link etc? It works actually, and it's coded in opencl, so this miner should serve as a base.

Is there any hope for GPU mining primecoin? Ever since mtmlr released it I haven't heard a thing. I guess he isn't developing it anymore? Is this GPU miner dead too, like the CUDA miner is?
Why would it be dead? Mtrlt released source so other people can work on it...rdebourbon was up to something. Source code is released, but it's so complicated that there's very few people who can work on it. Im just asking if it's dead or not, since I haven't heard a word of it from anyone. and who is that? Are they trying to revive the miner? He made an xpm poolminer and submitted a pull request or two to Mikaelh's HP github.

I've compiled it, and optimized with native/O3 flags lol (doubt it'll help with PoS) I'll try copying my .dat, seems simple enough.
Thanks guys!

Is it a good idea to send all my coins to a new address to start POS minting? I switched to Ubuntu now, and I have my old .dat file and also can dual boot win, so I was thinking of doing that.
If you send them to a new address, the POS mining date starts over - I would just use the old wallet. I thought the small transactions would be worse, since I mined most of the coins, then bought some more. How can I import my wallet dat? Just copy and place it inside the yacoin folder in my home directory?

Thanks, will check it out.

At 00.14 GMT beeeeer took ypools crown as the top primecoin site!!!
Way to go!

Pushing CPU to 100% is not the right solution. Idea behind PoS is to use very little power to run the network, a so called eco-friendly cryptocoin.
Never said it's a solution. I proposed it as a troubleshooting procedure. maybe you can add a new command like "pospriority" to yacoind / debug window to change the POS miner priority for testing purposes? I've added a command-line only switch "-fastpos". Usage: Pull request created and I would build a windows binary, but I've accidentaly deleted my dev virtual machine... Sweet! A new build with fast startup and this switch would be nice. I'll try it as soon as it's done.

The November 18th to May 31st N change is going to be very good for the Yacoin price and network. Im not sure it will change much. With the last N change my 7790 lost 80% hashrate and my 7950 lost 40% hashrate, the funny thing is Im getting more coins than before. The CPU miners where also affected by the change (I guess 50% drop). IMHO the GPUs with lots of memory like the 7950 (3GB) are the winners, while normal GPU cards with 1GB RAM like the 7790 and CPUs are the losers. I guess it ill take another 1 or two N changes to hit those High End cards harder as well, but the small GPUs and CPUs are hit even worse with every N change. So I will probably get an AMD Hawaii (4 GB RAM, 512 bit memory Interface) for YACoin mining My thoughts exactly...I'm gonna sell my 7970 and grab one of those.

I think a fast and furious pos miner would be cool...I would dedicate 7 of my 8 threads to it and mine on my gpus with the spare core.

They are fun to trade mainly...might be great if the exchange keep growing at this pace. Imagine btc-e or mtgox exchange fee shares xD

Great! Looking forward to join you guys again...waiting for my new 7970s.

New website name and address! Cryptologik.comPlease update your miner info.The old address will be supported for a few weeks. Thank you And what about the old bitcoin cents? I never got a payment since I didn't get to the minimum amount.
|
|
|
That's why we need gpu mining...otherwise xpm price is a victim of corrupt sysadmins and botnets.

haha! :p Good one

I've gotten 6.42xpm in four days, but I only mined for short intervals, I'd estimate 12hs per day.
so you're getting way more ~2x more than I am. are you using any special settings? what cpu do you have? I7 3820 at 4.3ghz, compiled the primeminer myself using hp10 optimizations posted in mikaelh's linux compilation guide. Getting 2 chains per day, vs the 1.2 chains per day windows build gave me. Settings I cannot post them right now since my pc is off and I didn't install ssh to connect via putty yet (lazy lol) That's why I don't mine 24/7 yet :p I'll post them here for you later today. is mining in linux any better/faster than windows? or linux in a vm? Depends, for me it is...since I compiled the binaries myself and optimized them according to my cpu type/arch. is there somewhere that I can look up the best settings for my rig? Stock settings are good, try compiling your own optimized binaries for linux first. Then worry about tuning the miner. Mikaelh's stock hp10 settings are rock solid, but more focused on findings blocks or 9-10 chains, so it won't be as good for pool mining where smaller chains count. You can try the ones I'm using, add these at the end of the batch file: -sievesize=1500000 -primes=2000000 -sieveextensions=7 -bits=10 -TargetInitialLength=7 -sievepercentage=5 -chainlength=10

I think getting this coin at mcxnow would take it to the next level...that paired with cryptoave (if it's succesful) might take DGC far. Looking forward to that.
