Since nobody asked about the cuda miner for linux or the modified opencl one, I assume nobody's mining Sia on nvidia....
Just to understand if it's worth working on it.
Actually I am... I found Nvidia miners recently. In fact they are working fine to me... 320 MH/s on 750ti The cuda version can surely be optimised: it should at least match the opencl one, as of hashrate. Now If only the opencl version wouldn't eat a full cpu core.... if only ... i have found that mining sia is not only difficult - but also not very efficient on the nvidia cards ... if there was an optimized version through cuda for the blake2 algo for sia - that would be something to bring our interest back into mining sia ... djm? ... klaust? ... sp? ... you all do cuda dont you? ... interested? ... #crysx |

using opensource miners and standard clocks, the 970 performs about the same as a 280x but using less power, so I'd say it's pretty efficient.

I think nvidias maxwell will be very energy efficient and fast at any algo, sia is not an exception... May be situation will change with amd fury cards.

Damned nice progress Taek + Team! UPnP is good for mass adoption, but I don't know why that mining pool should be such a high priority? The way I see it these should be the next top priorities: 1. Password protection for the wallet (easy to do from the wallet UI) 2. Increasing file size cap (at least 4GB "DVD size", but preferably 50GB "Blu-ray" and obviously much more in near future when 4k goes viral) 3. Dropbox style easy user interface and automated file contracts renewals and not manual. (without this there will be no mass adoption). Just my thoughts, but surely you know best your own project  One of the interns is working on the mining pool. It's a priority, but it's not the top priority. I am working on wallet encryption + some other wallet things right now. When I'm done, the wallet api will be sufficient for exchanges to add us, and losing coins on accident should no longer be a problem. I've been looking at a few of the most popular bitcoin + altcoin wallets to figure out how to make our wallet the best that's out there, and there's been a lot of progress. Siafunds from the UI is a goal. Luke is working on the file contract stuff right now. When he's done, the file cap will be raised to 5GB (enough to support DVDs), and uploading entire folders will be supported. Dropbox style uploading will not be ready by 0.4.0. Perhaps later on in September though. Depending on how the 0.4.0 launch goes, we want to focus on getting other developers and businesses involved. Sia is a lot bigger than just personal storage. It sorta seems like we're on target for August 15th. It's going to be tight but we haven't yet hit any major hurdles, and everyone seems reasonably confident that they'll be done with their part of the work in time. |

Is the mining pool work included in the tentative Aug 15th target or is that coming later? |

I'd say there's a 30% chance of the mining pool being ready in time. It is making progress though. |

It is making progress though. if there is that facility - it will open a huge gate that will flood the miners in ... the sooner the better - but it does need to be working well ... so take what time is needed to get it right mate ... #crysx |

I'm having trouble announcing with the ports. I saw some discussion about it pg 45, is it not working in windows ATM?
* Router is correctly setup to forward 9981-9982, TCP+UDP to my machine's adapter. Portchecker verifies those ports are open.
* windows: I have windows firewall off, but I threw in the ports as an incoming rule anyway, and siad is on the allow list. no other firewalls.
* turned off avast antivirus just to be sure.
* I now have 10 peers, so no connection issue.

thats due to the complexity of mining ... all that will change when taek comes out with the pool info ... #crysx |

You're going to have to do a 'force-announce' using siac. './siac host announce --force' september? oh no it's too late The code is pretty well documented, and I'm happy to show you around if you want to contribute and get a mining pool finished earlier. |
