This comes to show us that premine is not really necessary to promote a coin, neither the dev as long as he takes care of the code, nice seeing the community taking care of the coin.


This coin has NO premine  Angry

And that's what I said ... "show us that premine is NOT really necessary to promote a coin" ...  Huh

Sorry, I'm sleepy and misread your saying  Grin. My apologies.

Damn. What you still mining christian?
Pm me if its a secret ;-)

Christian has followed my strategy and change all of his miners to mine scrypt coin   Grin

Nope... still solo'ing Yacoin. And looking at the Keccak C code...




How much khash for YAC with N=14 do you have, Christian? You solo with multiple PCs or it is just one?

I took the time to finally get xptMiner to compile with GCC for Windows.
It was a nightmare for me, but what does that mean for you?  Christmas may have come early.

I've compiled my optimized code for each of the following architectures: generic, core2, corei7, corei7-avx, k8, k8-sse3, and barcelona (k10).

The Windows x64 binaries are available from here:
https://mega.co.nz/#F!YsZSHYKA!IC8LK_MBGwqC-gWOpO7zoQ
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/wtxvxvkirxax2vj/9P_Rxb9V1y (dropbox mirror)

Use whichever corresponds to your processor architecture.

If you're unsure, here's a quick guide based on your CPU manufacturer and age:
Intel: [Older] core2 -> corei7 -> corei7-avx [Newer]
AMD: [Older] k8 -> k8-sse3 -> barcelona (k10) [Newer]
Worst case scenario, use generic.


I will not be releasing any 32-bit builds.  "High performance 32-bit" is an oxymoron.


Let me know what sort of improvements you see!
Some builds may be slightly slower than the stock jh00 miner.  It all depends on your CPU.

I've added another 5-10% optimization to the code and hopefully fixed the issue with AMD builds.
It seems that mingw-gcc thinks that AMD processors don't support SSE, so it left them disabled.  I've fixed that.

The code optimizations have been pushed to the github repo.
The new binaries have been uploaded. (same URLs)

I got 5% slower on core I7 haswell in linux. Tested it for 1 hour and it is always slower. Weird ??

1926  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] cudaMiner - a new litecoin mining application [Windows/Linux] on: January 25, 2014, 10:27:39 PM

I mined 400k Digibyte for the first day and 200k USDe for next two days. 400k DGB is now 1.2BTC and 200k USDe = 1BTC. And I sold my 400k DGB for 0.8BTC and 200k USDe for 0.5BTC a few days ago. But still I'm ok with what I earned for 3 days with my lame hash Smiley))

Do you always download the wallet source code and compile for yourself or do you get .exe files from the coin authors? I would be a bit worried about malware, always grabbing the latest coin executables. Maybe running the different wallets in separate virtual machines would be advisable.


I never use Windows so the only way for me to grab the coin client is through source code. It is sometimes big headache to compile when the dev don't use *nix but somehow I could figure it out. And I assume it is still easier than Windows, I just don't know how to start with windows. Wink

If you use Windows Christian, I think you should always encrypt your wallet first.
1927  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] cudaMiner - a new litecoin mining application [Windows/Linux] on: January 25, 2014, 09:49:28 PM
Maybe with everybody but not with you, Christian, lol. Because without you I'm not able to get it Cheesy

It is easier than people think. My strategy is just simple. Mine potential coins when the diff still low and wait a few days when they are listed in exchange. The exchange is the most important part. If the exchange is big (like cryptsy), you need to dump your coin almost immediately, never wait more than 1 day to dump it. If the exchange is smaller you can wait a little bit to see how the market develops.
My strategy doesn't work everytime of course. There was time you earn almost like multipool & co (that means 10$/day/Mhs) or even lower but in general you should earn more. In my case average earning of mine is double as multipool & co. Of course I could earn more if i want a little more risk, but with that earning is it enough for me. Not to much stress and very fun for newbie in crypto like me.
Ewwww, effort  Tongue

It is not hard to write a bash script to detect the diff change from the coin daemon and then point your miner to it. Thought with cudaminer you need to kill cudaminer completely and start it again, which I don't like it and it is not good for the hardware. Two of my cheap PSU died because of suddenly change in power consumption. I would like to have the ability to switch the coin in cudaminer like cgminer API but it is not the main focus right now of Christian, I guess.
Case study for my strategy:
I mined 400k Digibyte for the first day and 200k USDe for next two days. 400k DGB is now 1.2BTC and 200k USDe = 1BTC. And I sold my 400k DGB for 0.8BTC and 200k USDe for 0.5BTC a few days ago. But still I'm ok with what I earned for 3 days with my lame hash Smiley))

In the last 5 days I was able to earn 2BTC with total 5.5Mhs with cudaminer scrypt. That means roughly 0.4BTC per days with merely 5.5Mhs. If you compare with multipool, middlecoin, switchercoin & co, or coinwarz, coinchoose you know what I mean. Smiley

erm... I guess you're not planning to share your secret? Wink

And considering the demise in YAC to BTC exchange rates... are there any other profitable scrypt-jane coins that we could mine? If some of you could share some firsthand experience that would be great...
Well not really:
ZcC is in N 13 but it's recovering from a fork for a while now so no exhchanges at the moment (enters N14 on Febr 17);
CPR (Copperbars) is in N 13 as well but I dropped it for some reason, not sure what I didn't like about it... (enters N14 on Febr 21);
APC (Applecoin) has potential, but it's only in N 11. Looking at one of the pools, the average hashrate per worker is around 294 kH/s. My GTX 660 gets 59 kH/s and ~30-40% CPU utilization (with -H 2).
Also, there's a bunch of coins between N 4 and N 7 but those are pretty much hit and miss. (cachecoin, microcoin, internetcoin, qqcoin, velocitycoin, freecoin, etc)
Basically, I'm silently waiting for the Keccak optimization so that I can test the !%+ out of low N coins because I'm starting to dislike YAC a lot and there's no way scrypt is more profitable with low-mid range cards like a GTX 660 (260 scrypt khashes vs 3.4 SJ N14 khashes).

Many thanks to bathrobehero for your information details. I was trying to find information of all scrypt-janes coins too but it is hard to find. And I still don't know how to get the information of the N-factor for each coin itself.

Btw, according to your question Christian and maybe you have interest too bathrobehero. I personally think scrypt-janes development is very important for the future of GPU mining, but right now scrypt mining even with cudaminer is very profitable depends on the coins you mine. In the last 5 days I was able to earn 2BTC with total 5.5Mhs with cudaminer scrypt. That means roughly 0.4BTC per days with merely 5.5Mhs. If you compare with multipool, middlecoin, switchercoin & co, or coinwarz, coinchoose you know what I mean. Smiley

When the cards are broken after 3 months you might have warranty.

70° should be ok.

I have about 190 Gigabyte 7950s that run at 60° in the winter overclocked and 80-90° in the summer. I've had 3 that had fans broken that I replaced with after market. They have been running any where between 7 and 15 months like that.

190 GPUs Shocked
So your farm is around 150Mhs ?? Where did you place your farm?? I don't find any place in western world with cheap electricity, so I plan to extend my farm to Asia (China or Vietnam). But maintain it would be a nightmare so I still consider. Could you share some tips how you maintain your super big farm??


More like 120 to 125. We don't  live in a perfect world. I'm incorporated and I pay. 07 cents per kw. There are a lot of places in the US are there is cheap electricity. Just have to look.

I programmed my own miner monitoring application that controls the cards and redistributes them to different coin networks and restarts the gpus.

The biggest thing you should worry about is airflow. Hire an HVAC specialist to do it right.

The best price I paid in Europe right now is 0.15 USD / kW (incorporated too. The base price is around 0.07 USD too but one hell of tax here in West Europe) . And price for electronic equipment is a lot higher than in US. It made me sometimes to think that USA is the true paradise for technology Cheesy

I have a pretty big industrial warehouse here so I will split my next rigs for better airflow. Thanks for your tips.

Uhm you mean you have completely rewritten miner from scratch or you wrote your monitor app which uses cgminer api to check and control your rigs?? Or you forked cgminer and rewrite the interface for your need ?
It's pretty good idea. I don't think it is very hard but it still requires time. Could you tell how long did you take to write your app ??

Thanks for answering Smiley

Aizen

New version of 42coins  Huh
It seems like I miss the rich train again  Grin

The dev has learned something from 42coin mistake. Getting in cryptsy immediately a few days after launch only kills the coin faster because of multipool. With coinedup the dump volume is much lower and the buy order is smaller but the coin will live longer, hopefully. Cheesy
Diff is already 14 and the next is 50?
Thanks but I will pass this coin this time. Mining fedora looks more fun to me Cheesy

1933  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] cudaMiner - a new litecoin mining application [Windows/Linux] on: January 22, 2014, 11:55:15 PM
Two new experimental kernels added to github - currently for Linux only. The Visual C++
project has not yet been updated. You will want to run ./autogen.sh and configure after
doing a git pull.

"Z" code submission by nVidia for Compute 3.5 devices (GTX 780 etc...). Good for scrypt.
"Y" code submission by nVidia, modified to run on Compute 3.0 devices also. Good for scrypt.

I find that scrypt-jane still runs faster with the "X" (Fermi) and "K/T" (Kepler/Titan) kernels
from the current github code.

Test away... Especially the Z kernel is expected to rule. I haven't tested it yet in detail.
Best config for "Z" is No. of SMX x 24, according to the engineer who wrote it.
Best config for "Y" is (guessing) No. of SMX x 32   - or just autotune.

The Z kernel is best run with -C 0 (it supports C 1 and C2, but that is mostly pointless).

When you make kHash/s benchmarks compare with the best scrypt values achieved with the
2013-12-18 release.

I got 86 kHash/s on GTX 750M with the -C2 flag and -l Y4x32 in some quick tests, which
might be slightly faster than what the 2013-12-18 release delivered.

Christian


You are a beast Christian Cheesy
But thank you and the nVidia developer.
My GTX780 goes from 500khs to 600khs with Z12x24 -> 20% increases.
GTX680 goes from 320khs to 360khs with Y8x32 -> 10% increases.
No changes in temperature though.

Anyone knows how to change account payment address from http://kdc.coinarmy.com/?
They said that I need to do the email confirmation but I don't find it in the website.
Anyone successes to withdraw coin from coinarmy.com? It is the biggest pool for KDC now but from my past experience I always have trouble with coinarmy.

I would be glad if someone could help me.

Please wait for the official announcement.

Unofficial information:

The trading fees will be 0% for the beta testing period, 0.15% afterwards.
We are planning to implement a dynamic fee system later, where higher volume markets will have smaller fees (in the range of 0.1% - 0.2%).
The initial listing will have atleast 6 trading pairs, including RPC/LTC, DOGE/LTC, EAC/LTC and hopefully USDE/BTC.


If everything goes as expected, we will officially announce the beta today!

With best regards,
The CoinMarket.io Team

I just checked. Looks nice, fast, clean. Want to do exchange immediately. But withdrawal fee of BTC is 0.001?? While cryptsy is 0.0005 and only the high level exchange vircurex is 0.002?
