Also, you should post the algorithm here. If it does rely on recursion, there is likely an iterative form of the algorithm which would not be hard to make and while would performs orders of magnitude faster than the recursive algorithm (honestly, if this is what coinhunter did it's incredibly stupid).

Funny part is: the GTX470 is only consuming ~120Watts with one thread and ~165Watts running 2 threads. That's a lot lower than I got when running SETI@home so I guess we are not on the limits of the card yet.
Proper coding for CUDA requires knowing both CUDA and the nVidia architecture well. It's very easy to code for it inefficiently if you are not very familiar with it.

It looks like someone was able to mine a lot of LiteCoins at the beginning Shhhhhh. Additionally, here are the USD prices in $2/BTC equivalents (mean of ask+buy): tbx 0.006000 $ fbx 0.000700 $ sc 0.010000 $ ltc 0.011570 $

Off course, some of the value gets captured by LTC. But what a waste of time and efforts for the community. We don't need to have whatmany CPU-mined coins.
The more the merrier; without competition we would never improve these digital commodities.

hash rate tbx 0.00119 fbx 0.00011 sc 0.03689 (rapid crash in hash rate over the past few days and hash rate is 6-10x that of CPUs doing scrypt work for ltc/tbx so who knows the actual number of CPUs this represents) ltc 0.00407 (increase of 20% over the past few days)
For a while SC2 seemed at the top, but there has been a shift over the last 24-48 hours towards litecoin and a huge loss of hashing power for SC2. It looks as if from here Litecoin will dominate (which is unsurprising: GPU "proof", tons of pools, open source, and deflationary).
In the same vein, the price of ltc has been moving up while sc2 has been falling.

pm me the latest version, I have 4x gtx570, i'll give it a try if you want
edit: give me the source code, I'm on linux amd64

Just think how famous someone would be to create the first deflationary currency. You would be more famous than the president and definitely would be getting twice the women too. you would be put on the record books and wikipedia as being the king of deflationary currencies.
Better yet, make a deflationary currency that is mined completely in 24 hours and premine for the first 20. You'll be a deflationary GOD

There are plenty of people who trade galangals or soybeans and don't even know what they look like. Your understanding of something has little to do with the public demand for it.
|
|

You premine it so I never have to (and never have to buy it, either).
|

There is no reason to do this
Make the block size a function of the system hash rate and have it always decreasing over time (for instance, if 1mh/s total hash rate block size should be 1 coin, but if 10mh/s block size should be 10 coins, then the next block should be 0.998 coins or 9.98 coins, etc). All you need is rapid but extremely small deflation to make this work, having all the coins mined in half a year will fuck everything up economically and probably cause centralization of a currency.

In the coming years it will be said that bitcoin came and went in 2011. There is simply no realistic chance of bitcoin recovering at this point. I'm not just talking about the price. I'm talking about people being interested in it. It's a fascinating project, but most people don't want put money into it when there's a very good chance a large percentage of the value they invest will evaporate. Sure, if they're active traders they can do ok, but most people don't have the desire or time to sit around and manage their bitcoin investment or a bot. I'll say it again. Bitcoin is done. We have well funded speculators and Bruce Wagner to thank for it.
Bruce Wagner is done. Bitcoin is inflating at a rate approximate to some South American countries but not Zimbabwe, and, well, all those countries still exist. Now we may welcome a new, more productive era of speculators and software engineers to fuel the adoption of digital currencies (bitcoin or not) and promote their usage. If altchain currencies are any indication, people are still interested and perfectly willing to make or lose money on this.

It's just people cutting their losses on their bitcoin investments, most likely. These are more the rule than the exception lately.

Well, it was a while coming and I think it's a while to go.
Putting my bets on $2 lows and $2.80 to $3.00 later this evening.

so... AMD is still the best and I'm raking it in. Wonderful!

Can we get the total network hash speed on the front page of the website? It's really easy to calculate based on the change in blocks over time and would let us see how fast the network is moving. Allchains.info's counter really blows.

According to my miners I'm getting 42 kh/s on my AMD cpus
According to the pool/number of shares I'm getting 250kh/s
...what? If it's kh/s it's probably using scrypt, but I have no idea how the client itself calculates kh/s.
I'm only running 2 cpus and I'm currently the person with the highest hash rate on the pool, lol. AMD 6-core once again is fastest?

How the hell does one go about "disassembling" a binary to get the source code? As far as I know that's impossible.
Actually, the SC2 source code decompiles pretty well with REC Studio.

So from this non programmers point of view I have learned several things that could easily hurt Solicoin 2.0. 3) Client must communicate with Super node
Where are you getting information about supernodes? Has source or a paper been released? it's part of coinhunter's "genius" solution to 51% attack, he just mines 50% of the nodes himself to ensure no one can ever get 51% and fork the chain

OK then I must be a dumb idiot. Please can somebody give a complete set of instructions ( optional ) on how to do this and what compile flags to use ( most important ) for a 2600K to get 4 khash/s per thread.
Thank you !
Run this with gcc-4.6.0 and up compiled and installed ./autogen.sh CFLAGS="-march=corei7-avx -O3 -Wall -msse2 -msse3 -msse4 -msse4.1 -msse4.2 -mavx" ./configure make
Use hyperthreading, you should get ~3.5-4 kh/s per core
