Do you still have a version of Cyclone that runs on CPU that does not have avx2? i think when you first uploaded was working also on that machines and now after the updates and modifications it doesnt.
thank you

There is no such version. All versions use AVX2 100% from the start. I wouldn’t even be doing this if it were SSE.

Fun fact for the voodoo experts here:

1Q111111111111111111111111111f2z1q

is ABOVE

1Qzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz38Cc3

and their RIPEMD-160 don't even have the same 5 leading bits prefix.

Tough luck for a vanity search engine, I guess.

 However, another option would be to give up and simply delete everything, as the culture of donations has practically disappeared (99% dead), leaving only criticism alive.

Oh yes, let’s all donate to someone who’s extorting the users of his program. A donation is supposed to be voluntary support, not blackmail.
If he really wanted donations, why didn’t he make the program open source? Oh wait, he needed to add the encryption part.

thank you

maybe you mean this version?)
by the way, on this version, there was very good speed  Cheesy

Unfortunately, it does not calculate the speed correctly, along with other bugs. Only the latest version on GitHub works properly. I have now updated all my posts containing the code to direct users to GitHub to avoid confusion and prevent false hopes about unrealistic speeds. It is impossible to exceed 5 Mkeys/s per core with this configuration and compilation method. Higher speeds are only doable with the Clang AOCC compiler for specific AMD processors—but that method also causes a thermal disturbance. You’d need a half-meter cooler for it!.  Smiley

What can we do to exceed 5 MKeys/s per core without overheating the CPU, aside from extreme cooling?  Tongue

You need to go to Intel's GitHub and clone the assembly versions of SHA-256 AVX2 from their repository:
https://github.com/intel/isa-l_crypto/tree/master/sha256_mb.

Then, reimplement it in this script.

You also need to do the same for RIPEMD-160 AVX2.

Finally, optimize and reimplement SECP256K1, likely using assembly, to make it even faster.

Good luck. Grin

yes that version
i know the speed was showing was double and incorrect but it worked on my other older cpu machines Smiley

That will be soon. I achieve incredible speeds there because hashing is not used—instead, AVX2 is used to compare batches of public keys   Wink

Too bad that the incredible speeds may be useless since the search space is exponential in size, right?
You'd need a 2**67 higher speed to compensate.

Everything here is useless anyway. But at least I'm retired and fishing. I have unlimited time to have fun until I die.  Grin

Haha, it might be useless, but exploring an undiscovered path might lead to something in the end. 😅✌️

Elliptic curves might unintentionally leave some patterns..who knows? 😅✌️
