Marketing by video is targetting the uniformed.

It's a closed source project with a proprietary miner, big RED flag.

A shill post from a legendary user? I hear some users are selling out to people who want
to exploit their user rank to give credibility to their "testimonials".

Only newbies and shills saying that.

Google "pyramid scheme" or "ponzi"

Some people I knew had a similar cult-like devotion to Amway.
They didn't listen to reason either.

Who the fuck are you talking to? Good luck gettng help with that attitude.

Done.

Just a quick note to reassure readers that although JayDDee is a newbie user here
we are the same person. The new userid now matches my github userid.

It's sha256d. Even though it can be mined with almost any miner it's a
complete waste to try with GPUs or CPUs because ASICs rule sha256d.

Some miners on some algos start submitting bad shares with too much OC. If you OC back it off a bit.

Some share are stale because they were submitted too late. These are not completely unavoidable
and are exacerbated by high network latency. This should be the same with both miners.

Since Claymore doesn't produce bad shares it's a software bug. Mutiply the displayed hashrate by
the accepted share percentage/100 to get the effective hash rate and compare that to Claymore.

This assumes the displayed hashrate is not inflated as some have claimed. It seems unlikely an
unknown developer would appear on the scene and beat all the others in performance.

I tend to ignore questions asked by people too lazy to do any of their own research.

Besides, there are a lot better places for tutorials on how to intall a CPU.

False assumption. Just because you didn't ever win the loterry it doesn't mean no one has.

There is a whole branch of math that can tell you exactly the odds of what happened.

As long as the miner submits valid shares at a normal rate (pooled mining) you're in the game, just unlucky.

I don't know if you're just another scammer or a naive investor but Pi is a scam
and your promotion of it makes you look like a scammer.

Pyramid shemes are an old con. There are even large companies that use the
technique, remember Amway?

But the're bad news. They eventually collapse and most people are left holding the
bag while a few get rich.

If you're just a scammer you can go to hell as far as I care. But if you're a naive investor
who truly believes, you should learn more about pyramid shemes before you invest in them.

Look who just joined BCT.

Yes, it's really me.

Many thanks for all the good info.

Can you explain why?

What you say means nothing, you already lied about it being open source.

Your nick looks familiar.

You got me on a technicality, I don't consider Pemtium and Celeron true X86_64 specifically
because they are crippled implementations.

In practical terms I was correct but let me rephrase to be technically correct.

Every mainstream x86_64 CPU, excluding very low cost CPUs, like Pentiums and Celerons,
built in the last 10 years has AES.



 

Every x86_64 CPU built in the last 10 years has AES.

I don't know what you mean that yoy don't unerstand how Ryzen's are made.
The only thing that affects mining is you need to set cpu affinity on Ryzen when using
fewer threads than avaiable. On Intel it isn't necessary.

On Intel thread 1 is on core 1 while on Ryzen thread 2 is on core 1 SMT with thread 0.
 
To use 8 of 16 threads on intel the default affinity 0x00ff assures only one thread per
physical core.
 
With Ryzen you need to specify affinity 0x5555 or 0xaaaa (alternating 0 & 1) to avoid putting 2
threads on the same physical core.

"Dr. Kokkalis has expertise in designing viral social applications,"

Pyramid shemes and click baiting are "viral social applications" that lure people with the
promise of profit by recruiting more members or getting "likes". It's not a sustainable model,
it gets top heavy and collapses.

The suckers always lose. If you haven't found any, you're one of them.

But it claims it and the binaries were upoaded to github to look legit. And there's no mention of the fee.
I Wonder what else the OP is hiding. Best to avoid.
