lol ! it just open :-)

Well put, @nanona, except I think it might be too late for IRD. Other CN coins are also taking a "wait-and-see" approach (DERO and ITNS, for two examples) but IRD is in a much more precarious place with just ~500kH/s on its entire network; if a single Bitmain X10 with 220kH/s decides to mine IRD it will basically increase network hashrate by 50%!

Ironically, there would have been some defense against ASICs by not getting listed on an exchange, as ASIC miners tend to be relentless and implacable sellers of whatever they mine so any coin not on an exchange would likely be avoided by them, but of course that obstacle has just been removed.

Considering that IRD doesn't have a special use case (unlike, say, DERO or ITNS), the original dev abandoned it months ago and the new devs don't seem to care whether ASICs crash their party or not I suspect grim days are ahead for this coin. I, for one, have stopped mining it, and though I am in no hurry to sell my IRD, neither am I interested in acquiring more.

The original dev was a thief and not a dev : now I know exactly his identity and his skill development level witch were around 0 : I discover it last week by simply reading the messages on iridiumdev account, I never through reading this ! He stole about 0.2BTC. This can show his level and ambitions. I prefer you call him now motherf***r or whatever you want but not dev. Best is not call him anymore... subject closed.

But how can you say "I don't seem to care" ? you don't know me. The new dev (not really new now), witch is here, witch do not ran away with 0.16BTC + 0.04BTC donated by his colleague to finally enter on a f* exchange, and spend square hours to make this coin technically nice is also thinking about implications and consequences of those changes.

I'm listening and also have my position, live discussions are on discord, you can follow. Now I'm currently reading all documentation I can find to make IRD asic proof if we decide it's the priority but 50% of the IRD will be mined in September, this mean we (the community) hold 27% yet and when "big monsters" were distributed, we should be at almost 35%. Remember : IRD has a fast emission. So I don't think asic will crash our party, I think it's already late (ROI) but it's a personal view. And yes, not getting listed was finally good !

Huh, well, I didn't know that part of the story, and I guess you didn't either until last week.

But how can you say "I don't seem to care" ? you don't know me.

That comment was specific to your earlier comment that you didn't see the problem with CryptoNight ASICs and even went so far as to say if we were to block ASICs why not block GPUs? Why not, indeed? Let's go full reductio ad absurdum and even block CPUs so that we have to use a calculator to work out the hashes by hand!?!

Okay, I don't do Slack and I avoid Discord unless absolutely necessary so any information disseminated on those two platforms but not here is effectively non-existent to me (and many others, I suspect). That said, I am very happy to see your opinion on ASICs has evolved; I was halfway tempted to buy one just to show you the error of your ways which would have almost certainly been more expensive for me than you...

Hi,

New pool with extra low fee :

location?

FWIW Community is pretty much against ASICs. We are going to patch.

Sativa or Indica?

What is the best mining software for nvidia gpu ?
Actually i use ccminer-criptonight but I don't know if it's the best as hash.

But I strongly support the right to use whatever mind-altering substances one chooses, as long as it does no harm to others!

No, I did not think about looking at iridiumdev account messages since last week !

That comment was specific to your earlier comment that you didn't see the problem with CryptoNight ASICs and even went so far as to say if we were to block ASICs why not block GPUs? Why not, indeed? Let's go full reductio ad absurdum and even block CPUs so that we have to use a calculator to work out the hashes by hand!?!

It was a spike to start discussions and listen to advices.

I heard and understood the problems that this could cause beyond the minors themselves: a control of the market, a huge profit for the sellers of asic and in addition a non existent support. And no, I do not have the means to buy an asic, I do not even have a decent video card to mine. Both hard fork has been tested with 1 CPU with a hashrate between 60 and 240H / s: my mac. I am now waiting for the arrival of a Vega64 that was kindly given to me : I will now be able to test GPU miners  My IRD personnal wallet balance is 35k and did not sell one IRD. The team balance is now at 9k.

I'm currently working on the way to block asic, the most efficient and easier to maintain. Feel free to send me every documentation, other forks, asic doc... I need to be feeded.

You can also send donations even in IRD, it is always nice and we feel supported

Hi,
New pool with extra low fee :
http://iridiumcoin.sixpools. tk/#

Welcome http://iridiumcoin.sixpools.tk
but why extra low fee : you will make bankrupt !
Consider adding https connections and rise fees : It's a community project.
I'll add it to the pools list. Can you just tell me where is it located ?

The only viable solution is to use whatever Monero is going to use. Nobody will write mining software particularly for IRD if we are going to use our own modification of CryptoNight, i.e. one which is different from what Monero will use.

All other serious CN coins will go with whatever XMR goes as algo. At least that's how I understand the situation, but I really didn't read much about it.

Does anyone have an overview over what the most popular coins plan to do, i.e. who is going to fork and to which algo and who will stay with the current non-ASIC-proof CryptoNight?

So you say his father didn't die, it was fake news to dissappear?

The previous dev throw this project is his big mistake. You see got many people follow this thread daily, so no need to mention previous dev anymore

No problem with this. It's the past but I wanted to make this public.
