Unfortunately there are still dudes around thinking our politicians print money and manipulate inflation for our good. I personally spoke with a m*er believing it was totally right for money to be centralized and have those guys borrow money to banks at 0% interest while they drain our blood with credit crunch.
Blockchains alone are too difficult for them, decentralization too subtle I'm afraid.

bitfreak, but they are right about marketing. Not a lot people are aware of cryptonite right now, and the name of this coin makes people confused too. Quoted for emphasis!

I remain convinced non-cryptographic pow will very likely be decentralized. Just too many instructions for effective use of die area.

Technically what happened goes by the name of "bus factor". The key man in development is made unavailable. It is a well known problem in software development. Sucks to read but those things happen and I can only wish him the best.

No direct experience, no. I just read the forums, it seems it requires intense trading to be profitable... and I'm not sold on any Xn coin to be honest.

Keep Boolberry as the main brand with BBR as the ticker
(BBR not effective in duckduckgo)

I tried the new version with my 7870 and used the easy settings tutorial. When all is configured and i restart the miner, i get Fatal Error: Concurrency is too high (1514888, max value is 1048576. Whoops! Completely forgot about that. Limitation removed. Now miner will go belly up but (if you allow it to keep running) you can inspect state using the web monitor.

Not LTC for sure. After riding the GPU distribution we were all dumped. GPU mining right now is mostly chasing the "innovative coin" of the week and even in this case ROI is fairly difficult.

I dropped you a line since you have a link in your pool how to mine so I guessed your users might have been interested.
Please add a note: Graphics Core Next cards only.
BTW, an user reported I've forgot to update max concurrency limit. Another update will be available in a few hours.

Quick note: M8M new version released. Mostly cleaning up. Introduced a silly configuration wizard. Kernels are the same as previously so if everything is already working you could consider not updating. Driver 14.7 seems to provide a very slight performance advantage, but the system becomes fairly sluggish.

Windows AMD Graphics Core Next users mining Qubita new version of M8M has been just released. This version introduces an very easygoing configuration wizard. For those not interested, it also improves pool compatibility. It seems Catalyst 14.7 driver provides a very slight perform performance increment at the cost of reduced system responsiveness. I'm unsure what I can do about that. Testing appreciated.

are hashrates for total rig power? say if I have two rigs 800 kH/s each, which network should I stick? If the two rigs are mining to the same address, then combined power. I'd probably go for 2nd network. Are you sure the node will adjust difficulty to the hashrate? If not, both miners will get diff too high and will miss a shareblock. I'm not sure p2pool nodes use diff adjustment extensively.

How this prevents it to be used on other pools?
|
|

I think the AMD miner is limited to 1GH pool. Just keep that in mind...
Can anyone investigate how/why?

Especially now that's no more a joke. Very, very sad.

Bullshit. ASICs have been pushed out from 3D graphics. Every new generation of GPUs grown less and less ASIC-ey over the years. I assume none of you ever played a video game. That's very odd.

Every new algorithm is asic-resistant because it's new. The authors of Lyra2 have an extremely closed mindset. I would be very careful in judging the algorithm resistance. What I can say however is that VTC on Lyra2 will be ASIC-proof for a long time. The major point being the aggregated market cap of all Lyra2 coins (VTC only) will be not enough to justify investment.
If Lyra2 happens to be using memory as the paper suggests (20MiB per hash) then a standard ASIC design is just inefficient. Companies will need to develop a hybrid "ASIC accelerated" chip instead. This is a massive amount of R&D. Considering how much they took for Scrypt, I don't see any way for this to happen. Let's talk about that again a couple of years from now.

the db server has problem again, I have asked an intervention in the datacenter. All pool are closed until the support has upgrade the server.
Very unfortunate. An user reported my miner is incompatible with your pools. After restoring my system I was going to fix this. I hope they can be up in the next few hours. While we're at it @lucazaneplease note on your webpage M8M is for Graphics Core Next based cards only. The kernels are known to produce incorrect hashing in VLIW architectures (and apparently extremely choppy performance as well).

I agree. To be honest, I find BTCTalk fairly dysfunctional. I check reddit at least once per day and I'm surprised it gets so little love.
