Off topic but if anyone is good with metal, and wants to make a cheap skeletal mining frame, this is what mine looks like at the moment PIC1PIC2PIC3sorry for bad quality xD so thats how my cards currently sit, its not finished yet but its getting there. For the top and bottom plates i used some spare 2mm stainless steel for the legs i used M6 all thread, entire thing cost around £20 bare in mind that mine only houses a psu and gpu's as the usb cables run off to my main system, and a pic of that for anyone interested PIC - looks smaller on the pic then it is CABLESso the 3 usb cables at the bottom feed into the case, then into the x1 risers. ooo and the red and black cable feeds from a dual psu adapter to the psu with the cards Beautiful to me, nice work. What method allows you to use USB cables that distance from the 3 cards to the desktop?

Their just normal 2m usb 3 cables :-) i had help finding out that 5m wouldn't work, as i had my base in a different place. so i moved my base closer, and i actually have around 200mm of extra slack. if you want a picture of how close they are i will post one. the case isnt entirely finished. i have got to have a brace made to told the pci slot screws, letting me keep the gpu's straighter and add the last bit of strength to the cards. Main advantage of this method, you can make the sections as wide as you want, and since you can get very long lengths of all thread, you can easily make a giant stacking tower :-) want another layer, just cut the plate and get some longer all-thread!

open sourcing it would be a problem. Last time we did this (heavycoin) the AMD guys caught up within a few days...
if it gives us an edge then screw open source, just give us the exe's have to find a way to do this without running afoul of the GPL

hmm i didn't think about that. the code you write to do the hashing, can you have that not under GPL? Or would it still be under it because code from another open source project? if not surely you could provide everything as now as GPL and just not allow access to the actually hashing code. I'm unsure how the GPL rules work with stuff like this

you mean paying for the miner? hmm if it would allow us to use it and not have it open-source then i am up for it. **Looks at bitcoin wallet, dust roles across my screen**

I'm unsure how the GPL rules work with stuff like this no dynamic or static linking of hashing code to cpuminer. Named pipes or RPC via sockets would be permissible... it's not about payment or "developer fees", it's about AMD stealing our mojo

mined within 20 hours or so, with 8% of the current AnimeCoin network hash rate (I added my 3 GTX 780Ti cards this morning only). BUT... it's not proftable. I'll stop at a million coins. Well, the coin is worth 2 satoshis. It would take 25% of the network hash rate to make any decent income per day. Maybe if it was a Hentai coin, it would be worth some Coinichiwa!

what we meant was if you had a fee for it, would you be able to not have it open source? as the part you built you can charge under a closed license?

I could charge for GPL licensed software, yes, but I would have to give anyone the source code on request This has a couple of side effects for us a) people can remove any "developer fee" code we might have added and distribute fee-less binaries. b) AMD miners can steal our mojo (because they have source code access and do a straight port to OpenCL) c) people can redistribute this without charging, circumventing any software storefront we might have set up for the initial distribution. and we couldn't do diddly-squat about a), b) or c) (it's all considered legal) So it's clearly not the way for us to go. And besides, we don't have that miracle groestl yet. It's under development.

we're working on a KILLER groestl, requiring a deeper understanding of the hash algo. When done, everything else will be toast. This would turn quark, X11, groestl, myriad-groestl into CUDA coins. open sourcing it would be a problem. Last time we did this (heavycoin) the AMD guys caught up within a few days... Christian We could live a few months with closed source and big proffits.

i am sure someone will find a way to do it

Where do you sell FC? On all exchanges there is nobody buying it.

yeah, that could be a problem. There's not a strong buyer's market. nxt-e.com seems to be the only exchange with a bit of trade (0.25 BTC per day or so).

I solo mine that with ccminer. No settings to set beyond choosing the algorithm. ccminer35.exe -a fugue256 How about trying infinitecoin? Price is undervalued IMO and difficulty is 0.3-0.4. Almost mined out but new client allows mining of transaction fees. http://infinitecoin.com
