To be honest i throw all my money into mining rigs.
Since euro is lost and savings are punished here..the best way is to invest into something better tHan fiat :-)
Agree. Just started mining 1 month ago. Earning is not a big deal but I can setup second rig in about 6/7 months.Which suits me allright. not sure if all this will keep for 6-7 months, everything is crashing now, if it was not for bitcoin high price it would be unprofitable already For the ZCash mining, if you use the 7970 or older cards, and the electricity price is over 0.2 dollar/kWh, it is not profitable. |

If bitcoin does badly, alts do well. Some people with old(er) hardware are better off turning it off until it becomes more profitable again. People with newer generation cards are still mining quite easily and making a profit while doing so. |

The implementation of the new algorithm turned out to be quite difficult, but it's coming along.
It's not surprising, however, given the fact that I'm up against professional cryptographers.
Just to let you guys know, the new algo involves a modified version of Wagner's algorithm,
which I call "castrated Wagner's," with reduced memory bandwidth without compromising
algorithm binding. My brain is fried thinking about this problem with so many gotchas day and night,
but we are at the end of the tunnel.

Great job man! But ur missing the point of oss... release something as a basic concept and probably(deffinately) big brains here will help to get it working. |

You've piqued my curiosity. I never gave much thought to optimizing Wagner's algorithm, as I thought the algorithm binding limited what you could do. Maybe I'll take a break from AMD GCN assembler docs and look back at the equihash paper. p.s. You know your brain is working hard when you get a headache from just thinking! |

Will that match Claymore V8.0? If that is the case, that is excellent work. Even though the development fee for the Claymore is just 2.5%, it is 6-10% lower shown in the pools. |

Optiminer is not open source neither is Claymore. Please stop spamming this thread.
We are still waiting on open source miner that could compete with current speeds. If you don't have one please don't post about others closed source miners.

No spamming from me, I see mention of people comparing with Claymore on this thread so why not let people know Optiminer is back soon and we can then compare the speeds from all three miners? I agree we are still waiting for a open source miner to come along that compare to the speeds of a the closed source and I hope it does soon. that way everyone will be able to see there is no hidden fees in there etc. Until then why should we not be able to discuss the alternatives available? |
