so far there is no miner, right?
can someone please tell me what is the difficulty now?
all miner dev. have bailed out as it is an obvious attempt at scamming miners (dev releasing a sub-optimal miner on purpose while he is mining with a faster miner)
Fee free to mine though  Grin

it's bullshit! I don't have any faster miner. But I agree, it was able to produce faster miner, need optimization of the algorithm.
commenting out all the sprintf ?

this is a cycle,

That cycle will "hashval" each array data into a string, and save it to "s" string array, I use the sprintf function.

plz google "sprintf"

Thank you!

After all, this is an untested algorithms, but Tlascoin and use dual SHA256.

That is, no pool can only solo mining?

You are strong, you will come up is not it? All the miners will thank you. Grin
hmm, from what I read, it says anyone mining this coin at the moment is getting screwed by dev  Grin
(miner or not not a good coin to mine)

Or the dev is not sufficiently careful to be trusted with your money, either way.

The quote from ypool is correct.  The hash function throws away half of the intermediate state generated by the first sha256:

   sha256(block stuff) --> hash1
   twister(half of hash1) --> hash2
   sha256(hash2) --> hash3

Thus, it's really only a 128 bit hash, not a 256 bit hash -- there are only 2^128 possible inputs to the second sha256, and thus, only 2^128 possible outputs.  Numerically, this is probably not a critical weakness, but it's incredibly uncareful design.  It also means that there are all sorts of ways to optimize the hash function well beyond what's in the built-in miner.

If you go beyond that, Twister was rejected from the sha3 competition for having substantial flaws.  That doesn't outright make it inappropriate in a PoW function, but it should raise substantial questions -- all other features being equal, I would consider a coin that did sha256(), x(), sha256() slightly better if it used a stronger hash function for 'x' than one that seemed like it was already going down the path of having some cryptographic weaknesses.  There's no reason to think that Twister makes this weaker than just dual sha256, but it should raise serious questions about the purpose for the coin's existence.

This is a technically poor coin / PoW design.



GROUNDLESS ACCUSATIONS!

and I do not think there is any flaw in my code.

I do not think the word "groundless" means what you think it does.  Allow me to more concretely ground my statements so that you might understand them better:

  - Wallet source code showing the code as I copy/pasted it:

     https://github.com/tlas/tlascoin/blob/41921a44f7cc504d2c2d114edef026a58c1b43f7/src/hash.h#L17
 
    
    Hasht1( 256, (const unsigned char*)hash1.ToString().c_str(),256, hashval );


You call ToString(), which creates a 64 byte hex representation of the hash.  You then pass it to Hasht1, specifying a length of 256 bits (32 bytes).

The second claim I made was that Twister was rejected as a SHA3 candidate.  Citation:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NIST_hash_function_competition

"The following non-conceded Round One entrants have had substantial cryptographic weaknesses announced"
 ... Twister ...

Which of these statements do you believe to be factually incorrect?



But the last round SHA256 ensure the safety.

I think need a pool, has been unable to solo mining Angry Angry Angry

That's not my job,  Wink

Those interested, the mining algortihm is SHA256 + Twister + SHA256


Yep, You are the first see the code, Thank you. Seriously.

Lol. Interested for a GPU miner?


I do not know anyone can make GPU miner, but this time is CPU only, because I'm not good at opencl.  Wink

Well i mined 2 blocks using i3 but hashrate is rising so it seems like no more blocks for me, if anyone would be so nice and would like to donate please PM me Smiley
Also one thing...why does the logo remind me of metiscoin? I hope that this one won't have inactive devs like the metis did.

The name From atlas but already exists ATS, just used TLS.

you are syswt ?

no,

Giving it a shot. Mining on my I5 3570K. 900 coins mined so far. No issues.

FYI... I can't get to the website tho. I get a 403 forbidden...

I'm working on.
