As I read the code on their github, the new LBK3 hash the VTL devs have created is a simple chain of Bmw, Blake, Keccak. My assumption was that it would contain some Lyra2 aspect as well, this from the leading "L" in the algo name. I can't find any indications of that being the case though. In this form, it should be trivial for anyone who knows the sgminer codebase to create a forked version supporting LBK3. The hashes involved are also difficult to optimize above the best publicly available OpenCL versions.

I could be missing something though, just did a very quick code browse of their github? Otherwise, the bottom line is that there's currently no point spending time on this algo for us as part of this miner, we can't add enough value to justify a dev fee, and it will be completely slaughtered by fpgas if/when it becomes interesting enough. The upcoming Acorns from GPUHoarder will most probably be capable of pipelining the full algo on its Artix-7 chip.

Out of curiousity, I've reached out to neithender on the VTL discord for final clarification though.

The real winner in the Lyra2 race will be whoever releases an optimized miner for the AMD R9 series. There is still a LOT of that gen cards out there and I for one would tip/fee-mine with my old R9 cards to support that effort. Any plans for this?

This was a good thing to happen, next time the ones scammed will think twice before giving their money away.

so where is you page ? no link..

I think a respected member of the forum does not read projects about which he writes, this project has not even started a bounty company.
Does anyone know when the bounty will start?

I'm mining and trading IPBC - never had any problems with sending or receiving (except livecoin sometimes have their wallet offline, but it is obviously their problem). I'm using linux version of the wallet, it's stable and easy to use, for mass adoption default on switch to use external node would not hurt, ability to switch off "bring to front" when receiving transfer for miners like me, also you could integrate bit.tube page into the wallet.

Question for devs - are you going to release sources of bit.tube, to allow competing ipbc based services? That would ensure ipbc success, in my opinion.

Don’t want to spam, just have a question. What’s the difference between bittube and dtube?

You forgot to mention in ur "in-depth" repot that it is better to wait for the price to go below 100 Satoshi.
Why ?
 1-BECAUSE A HUGE OF COINS TO ME MINED AND DUMPED
2- Airtime to be dumped
3- viewers will dump thier coin
4- video creators will dump thier coins

Every one is dumping.

So in my in-depth analysis, best thing to wait for a month or two and buy below 100.

Now let's see who is "in-depth" analysis is right.

Okay so I double checked what you said. This is extremely weird. So most coins that are POW will list circulating supply and "Max supply". Some simply don't mention max supply because there is no max. So okay if you look at Bitcoin it shows 17 million circulating, 21 million maximum. Litecoin 57 million and 84 million. I've check with quite a few coins on this. So here is whats weird... BitTube says 80 million circulating and 82 million "Total". Why does it say "Total" and not maximum? Is this a mistake on coinmarketcap behalf? I have no clue what they even mean by "total". However this is obviously misleading regardless of whose fault it is. This might not even be the fault of BitTube, but it is indeed pretty weird, they should ask CMC to correct it. I don't think so many investors lose money necessarily because of this though. After all the bear market wiped out about 90% off the face of almost all popular altcoins.

From reading a blog on BitTube I saw them explain their supply curve and it looks about the same as other projects. It's definitely not the best supply curve but it's not the worst (Zcash was the worst I had ever seen for early investors).

Other than that, there is probably no reason to bother this project... the marketcap is already pretty low. Best to just cut your losses and move on man. I personally do really like the idea of using IPFS with a DPOS type of system and giving mining rewards to people who watch with their computer or post videos. As for this project, I've got no clue. There is d.tube and bit.tube and I am not entirely sure what the differences are. However it is a step in the right direction as long as there is absolutely no moderation whatsoever, I think there should actually be no copyright protection (why, the internet should be free... monetize elsewhere). Also I think the drawback of any system similar to DPOS is too few nodes so any system that tries this should do blockchain pruning and share block rewards and let block size be dynamic. That way it scales and isn't centralized whatsoever.

I'm a bit bummed out by everyone trying to capitalize on the crypto boom when they should be focusing on innovating and pushing technology forward. Also it's even more disheartening to see investors not invest in projects that do hard work and make working software. I've been dealing with this issue for over 4 years ever since I released BitHalo(which is free software). But still if this particular project focuses on innovation and technicals purely without any centralization whatsoever then it's all good and I hope it does well. Someone should probably check all the code too because I think too often people aren't vetting code on all these crypto projects.

People will likely buy any for bragging rights cause most will never use them fully, ray tracing is a new thing, ...

Good thing these cards are being released in a bear market, these would be gobbled up by miners if a bull run was in full swing.
Happy to see the gamers will likely have these cards first (i'm not against mining, i have a mining rig)  a bullrun would mess up pricing and shortages galore again, causing people to overpay for gpu's

lol this is really something.
This guy has been commenting here about 500 satoshis for months and instead of devs or people in charge come in and contradict what he is saying about mining and supply - People just laughed him off.

well....

This stupid, childish, emotion-filled comment is unnecessary here since you have no discussion over price\market\technology\dev team etc. Do you feel better after writing that at least..?

And still right !  price reach 600 Satoshi ,

before i said it ll get to 500 !! i CORRECT MY SELF < IT LL GET TO 300 staoshi

And watch out for their website ,  something it about that is soo heavey for memory !! very suspcious,. even youtube with billions videos is faster and uses less memory.

watch out for your computers.

and soon the price is 300 staoshi.

NOW LET ME KNOW IF ANY ONE DAREs TO SAY I WAS WRONG> !!!!!  BUNCH OF AMATEURS !!!!! hahahaha

Can someone answer me please?

Profit don't like much attention, like high volume, so... ) At first trading days Purk was very profitable, with volume 20+ BTC and price 2k+ satoshi... but cool days ended up %)

Yeah, with new wave of btc dump everything got down even more... Before that Purk was profitable for Vega's and BBR for low-end AMD's.
