I see it as a failure already, you don't seem to know what you are doing (no offence). I'd recommend you to post all your ideas and see if you find some constructive criticism then get in contact with those people and develop the product (and I'm pretty sure it's going to be very different from what your current ideas are about). NDA is not going to work because of many reasons: main one is that there is nothing behind this NDA and nobody needs rough ideas. Ideas worth nothing. Next one is if for example I want to break NDA I can easily do it and you won't be able to do anything about it unless you are going to work only with people from the States (since you sound like you are from the States and preferably will personally meet them to sign the agreement. It's crypto and it's time of open source
I am not a programmer but someone with 20 years history working with fortune 100 companies and government organizations. I hope to proposition a major player in the software world (like Google, Microsoft, HP, etc..) to do the actual development. Expect a time commitment of 10 hours per week for the next few months, may increase from there.
these sounds to me like redflags here...
Agree, and the part with proposition to Google/MS/HP sounds really weird too. They are not even going to talk to you unless you've really worked with fortune 100 companies and have relevant connections. But if that's the case then why are you looking for programmers here? Next thing, what's wrong about posting your linkedin profile in the thread so that everybody can see?
You won't be able to mine much with 2.2-2.7 Ghash/s miner unless you have hundred of them. Roughly speaking one R9 280x graphic card giving you some 750 khash/s at scrypt today can earn you as much as 15 Ghash asic at SHA-256. But for mining scrypt currencies you'd better also get more RAM (8GB should be enough for 4-5 graphic cards). The only not important thing here is CPU, old 3Ghz would be more than enough (unless you want to mine scrypt-Jane currencies, but there are not too many of them). Your PSU now is enough for 1 graphic card (1200w can handle 4).
HD 7990 or r9 290x is definitely the best card for today.
Shall I trust the Lottocoin which is announced today?
It's Lotto, just play it, you'll see if you win. Btw, it was pretty hard to compile qt wallet from the source, there are some errors in Makefile. And when I finally compiled it it appeared that the difficulty was too high already, it'd be quite hard to do solo mining.
