Djm, while we certainly do appreciate your enthusiasm and your undying drive to achieve either your goal of destruction for this project, or to get the price to where you want it to be, you've been saying the same things since this coin was listed.. In Fact, you were telling people not to mine it before it was even listed. You've already misguided many, and you've up the manipulative tone of your fud. We ask that you please leave as we are un able to moderate you ourselves.
People know what you're up to already and it's frankly a distraction for those of us here who are trying to contribute ideas and build upon the project. There are a lot of brilliant minds in this thread that have all come out with ideas and contributions, this CPU miner today was one of those things. It helps us to stick to the original core of the project.
If you want this coin so badly DJM, get a cpu miner up, buy some and stake. We suspect you were already mining and were fudding to push people off mining so you could get more, or we suspect that you're hopeful some of your fudding will negatively impact price. Whatever it is, it's negative for this project. Please leave and allow those of us who WANT this coin to succeed to continue down that path.

Your GPU miner is commenting out HW errors as well. Also we're making an algorithmic change that will not significantly reduce current cpu rates either but will make it near impossible to mine efficiently without utilizing the full l2 Cache within a CPU.

Thank you to the brilliant minds over at nicehash for proving again that CPU's are indeed more efficient  |

Wow, we leave for a bit to get some work done and suddenly we control 50% of supply? You are out of your mind. We put the miner right in the wallet, no pool configurations necessary and many people including yourselves mined and at a significant profit, the coin was traded on multiple exchanges for a few days below 2k satoshi. Give it a rest and let us get our work done without coming back here only to see you guys throwing speculative mud at it. If you can't prove it, it's FUD. There were so many miners joining the network that it overwhelmed our nodes.. This coin was designed from the start for fairness, and we will continue doing what we must to keep it that way. Just wait until you see this Algorithm we're working on.. you thought the first one was good.. Game over GPU miners.. Game Over.

We expected guys like sockpuppet to show up after we updated. Naturally supports of other coins are going to be scared. Sock, the fixes we bring will be to the benefit of crypto as a whole.
Sigh......I'm not scared of anything. I'm not married to any coin and am generally holding at least a dozen different alts at any given moment. I'm pointing out legitimate concerns that anyone who is thinking critically should have. Sock, anyone who is critically thinking, knows that 99.5 percent of every single post on bitcointalk is motivated.... |

 AXIOM Brief Status Update - Monday, August 3rd, 2015Acknowledging the private GPU miner problemIt is our core belief that the only means of advancing this technology, is to take the problems and demands on directly. The community has spoken, the current GPU miner has lead to stress from many of our investors, though we do not currently consider the GPU miner to be a threat to the actual fairness of the coin, with the current hash rate, adjusting block rewards, staking and scalability when compared to the ease of use, electrical costs, and widespread availability of the CPU. Everyone with a computer owns a CPU, anyone can mine AXIOM with a click of a button not everyone owns a GPU. Currently the CPU mining power on the network grossly outweighs that of the GPU. Hardening the algorithm for further GPU resistanceWe have spent the last several days researching different algorithms that may solve our current needs for continued GPU resistance. We will be making these methods and the dates of our planned implementations public during this week of Monday August 3rd. We are testing raising memory requirements and possibly using disk I/O as part of the algorithm. If testing is successful and algorithm changes do not put too much strain on regular wallet users, AXIOM POW algo will be hardforked to AxiomMemHash 2.0. POS 2.0 Security and fairness weaknessesWhile monitoring the blockchain and block propagation during the incredibly competitive AXIOM DPOS, we’ve identified several major weaknesses in the current POS 2.0 code. Difficulty target based on coin input size can be modified by rogue actors. Time-distribution of coin inputs can be used by rogue stakers to stake more frequently. Selfish-miners can stake more efficiently by skipping validation and inclusion of transactions from the memory pool. Custom stake miners can be multi-threaded, hash at full speed, and outperform other wallets running less efficient single threaded stake miner. AxiomPOS (POS 3.0)AxiomPOS, or POS 3.0, is our next generation proof-of-stake protocol, incubated after conducting extensive research experiments and identifying numerous serious concerns and exploitable deficiencies in the popular “PoS 2” protocol, which can be used to game the stake system for significant advantages at minimal cost. Presently ALL alt coins using the PoS 2 protocol are susceptible to these methods. We are well aware the above statements will cause controversy, and a whitepaper is currently being drafted and edited to explain the aforementioned issues. This is a short brief of our near-future plans. More information, details, timeline, and whitepaper will be released during this week of August 3rd. |

Even with the addnodes from the OP and 6 active connections it takes me hours to just load 4 days of blockchain?? How ?
Slow loader, I have had some coins take me over 5 days to sync weeks worth of blocks, this one is pretty quick compare to them lol The joke is the whole blockchain is not even 20MB big for Axiom. Ridiculous. AxiomMemHash is used for POW and blockchain confirming, it's very slow, maybe the slowest/hardest out for now. This is a CPU bottleneck not bandwidth, we have over official 10 servers and many from the community. For signing and all other external activity, we use shabal-256 which is much faster. If you check task manager, the CPU is probably 100% USE during sync, then lower. |

10 days for my first stake.. and every hour it'll change to 20 days..... while the dev stakes every minute
I has 10 POS blocks on my first few days, now I tend to get around 5-6 blocks a day Yes, always the dev  We're working on addressing flaws in POS 2.0 that cause unfairness in staking. |

We are here and working on updates!
You didn't take a day off did you? Naughty person! 
We have been working and testing ways to hardfork and make the coin more GPU resistant, along with some major changes to POS 2.0 and it's security flaws.
More news is coming in daytime USA time!After you instamine all coins with gpu now is good time for more gpu resistant axiom Great work scamers We never bought GPU miners, and asked those using GPu miner to leak them.. |

AXIOM developers pinged me to give an opinion on the GPU speedup of the AXIOM PoW function.
I wrote the draft of the paper about RandMemoHash back in 2013, after playing with RandMemoHash a bit. I tested it with a SINGLE GPU (that was even older), and could not get any speedup. My paper does not show any proof, not any real world comparison over several GPU models, so it is definitively unfinished. The suggested parameters are not proven to be valid for all existent GPU models (and less for future models). People should never take for granted what an non-peer-reviewed privately-published draft paper says.
I would have liked that Axiom developers would have pinged me to give an update on it before implementing it.
Having said this, I find that a 5x GPU speedup quite good resistance, considering that a GPU is generally better than a CPU in almost every task. CPUs are good at executing large programs, doing paging, protecting memory, doing I/O. Nothing that a PoW can make use of.
GPU memory system is designed for throughput, and it has generally about 6 times the bandwidth available to a CPU. RandMemoHash bottleneck is the DDR/GDDR memory bus, so that speedup can be expected.
Also you must consider power-usage in the equation: that may make it better or worse for GPU-mining.
I don't know if tweaking the parameters would improve it. Maybe using 8 MB instead of 2 MB can prevent the use of some L2 caches in some boards. But the more space you require, the slower it is to verify the PoW. And this is a cat-and-mouse race, since future models will probably increase the size of the cache.
The Axiom developers & community could collect some real world numbers and try to find an improved parameter set (if it is really needed and if there is a better one).
I wish AXIOM users the best luck.
Sergio.
my gpu miner have 450-460 h/s on 280x
Please share it with us.  |

This size of chunks concept... I have noticed in various threads about proof of stake coins discussions that seem to refer to more than just how many of a coin you leave in any one staking wallet.
Some even seem to have some kind of automatic chopping up of "coins", presumably outputs or something like that?
Some even have users talking about various plans to manually re-arrange their coins within one wallet to help or hinder staking.
So I am wondering is all that done for us automagically here or do we need to worry about fidgeting around in our wallets to stake efficiently / effectively?

We are going to be addressing this exact problem, after observing the AXIOM DPOS phase. A whitepaper is in in progress. We made some updates to the source code readme, https://github.com/axiomcryptocurrency/axiom/blob/master/README.mdMore news to come... We've added 5 more node servers, 2 US, 2 EU, 1 in asia. If you have any connection problems please add these to your axiom.conf: addnode=104.197.49.247 addnode=104.197.64.168 addnode=130.211.74.245 addnode=104.155.34.235 addnode=107.167.189.225 and restart your wallet. There is a TON of network traffic on this coin. You might need to close and re-open your wallet a few times to sync, to re-connect to the nodes. And our nicehash addition:  https://www.nicehash.com/?p=news&id=20 |
