this has the be wrong or this guy has a gpu miner ?
1 barrystyle 69 2,330.427
his hashrate is 2,330 khs that's like four times as high as the next closest
Botnet or many AWS instances.
sp has already made a gpu miner, at least he claim so
I think he didn't ;-)
Yup. There isn't a GPU miner, he didn't know that it was different from Lyra2, that's where his 'claimed' numbers came from. Lyra2 performance.
Amph being dumb as always.
just to be clear: I don't think there's any gpu miner available; I also don't think it's worth developing it, and I'm not alone.
I disagree entirely with the amount of money that is flowing through this coin right now. You'd just need a moderately sized farm to make fistfuls of money back. It doesn't matter if this algo never gets used again, it's about striking while the iron is hot and she's glowing red hot right now. There are plenty of algos that never get used after the first coin.
Even if each GPU, like a 1070 makes as much as a 4core Intel, it'd still be 'good enough' for a launch miner. It doesn't need to be infinitely faster, it just needs to be just as fast as what most people can muster or faster. A 4 core modern Intel is a great baseline for that.
They haven't even announced a timeline for the new algo, so while we're burning time sitting here talking about when they're going to switch over (which I assume is more then a month away as it hasn't been announced yet), the coin keeps draining into the endless botnet funnel.
Unfortunately my mining operation is too small to employ people, but eventually I hope to employ coders who don't code on a whim. Opportunities like this don't come around all that often. Seems most of the developers here work on whatever they want, regardless of people offering them money to do otherwise. They seem notoriously bad at making business decisions with the exception of Wolf0 and his shady ass business tactics. It's funny it's so hard to actually contract developers here when they talk about donations and getting paid all the time.
