Simple logic. There is no law against making statements through pseudonyms on message boards about applying computing power in an asymmetrical manner to the solution of SHA-256 encryption. Saying that one is going to do an act is different than the actual doing of the act. And in this case even the act itself, while a nuisance and an affront to our sensibilities, is not per se "illegal". So the 13 or 14 active market makers on a couple of minor exchanges will be inconvenienced for a few days, and will not be able to play out their dreams of financial glory until the weekend? How is this even worth talking about?

I assume the partyvan havent been notified yet 

Actually have an option a whole lot more efficient than that.

Well lets start with the easy part, Coblee the creator of LTC knows exactly who I am as we only live a few miles apart.  I've been to a few of the Sf Bay Area Bitcoin Meetups. I live in Fremont, CA. Hope that helps.

The petition was successful!!

I am the popcorn police.
I arrested BitcoinEXpress.
I read him/her his/her rights (he/she has the right to be unaffected by my packets on the internet...).
I booked him/her into my minecraft jail.
The Council of YouTube Commenters will hear his/her arraignment shortly.

I didn't ask why you are doing it, I don't care

I'm just curious who its directed at ... like, when you get your 15 signatures - which agency is going to swoop in and arrest bcx?

who are you petitioning to arrest bcx?

not sure of the exact methods planned but attacking peoples computers is illegal in many countries

one snippet
In terms of criminal violations, there’s the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (the “CFAA”), which prohibits a person from “knowingly caus[ing] the transmission of a program, information code, or command, and as a result of such conduct, intentionally causes damages without authorization to a protected computer” (see 18 U.S.C. § 1030(a)(5)(A)). The requisite “damage” element under the CFAA is “any impairment to the integrity or availability of data, a program, a system, or information” (see 18 U.S.C. § 1030(e)() and a “protected computer” is defined as a computer “which is used in or affecting interstate or foreign commerce, including a computer located outside the United States that is used in a manner that affects interstate or foreign commerce or communication” (see 18 U.S.C. § 1030(e)(2)(B)).

but ppl that get upset over what goes on in a shoutbox probably think that wont relate to them...

I guess I'll need to cross-compile minerd myself then...

Would you mind posting here a direct download link for the minerd executable?
a) Not everyone can install from the Play Store
b) Not everyone has an Android device running 2.3 or higher, required just to download minerd (and setting up an emulator is a PITA for such a simple thing)

Is there any way you can compile minerd so that it is run from the command line on the Android system (i.e. compile as a normal Linux binary for ARM)? This would have a few advantages for some specific use cases:
- Possibility to control and monitor the miner over SSH/any other remote shell protocol
- Would run on devices with broken screen (or broken input method)
- Android-version independent (I'm not sure)?
- Better for people who love the command line

I'm pulling 3.1 khash/s testing on my Nexus 7 right now.  Thats pretty sweet for an android based miner.  Well done.

Edit: As soon as i turned the tablet sideways so that the orientation changed, the miner reset.  Thats a bummer.

So I just installed yours, I'm getting for thread 0 = 1.09 khash/s and for thread 1 = 1.15 khash/s

Not bad for a phone pulling in roughly 2.25 khash/s


This app is definitely faster, but I did like the fact the other client could save your profile, where as this app requires you input your data everytime.

I'm running LTCMiner now on my Galaxy SIII and am getting 61.867 hs/s
