I'm currently thinking of a game that could be using QuarkCoin only. It should be a great way to promote the coin, and make its value increase, am I right ?

Of course! It would be GREAT if you made the game!

Yep you're right. If the game has a fair amount of users it will definently increase the value of QRK.

I'll give you quark if you make a game!

We'd all donate QRK for a game!

I didn't know there was a pool yet? i am solomining it and it is more profitable than prime. I sell half of these and buy prime to hedge my bets. I like quark coin though although starting diff was too low.

Blockrate went down a lot for me, seems some big players made the switch from Primecoin.

Yes it is possible. I'm mining with i5.

any modifications to abe to support it? So, finally out of the noob-jail:) There are some minor modifications: I needed to change the COIN define for the decimals, and the difficulty display (since the Quarkcoin-QT client has some weird (in comparison to other coins) difficulty calculations. (Its 256 times off)). Only small stuff. Every page of the Explorer should link to the modified source. Setting up a github account is something i think i will do after the weekend. Bye

I don't think it is significantly faster, but you can use it to mine on a pool. Neisklar has also setup a p2pool for Quark here: http://176.221.46.81:8372/static/

https://github.com/uncle-bobfor nearly a 30% improvement in hash rate on an amd four-core 2.4 Ghz my hash rate has went from 123502 to 163519. I'm mining around 6000 QRK a day with this code. I'm hoping that with an increase in the hashrate, for at least anyone that can compile code will uptick the price on QRK. I really don't do windows, so I'll have to leave making a new binary up to someone else.

The win executables took some time to compile, they are linkes in the announcement thread, and here: Win64: http://www.share-online.biz/download.php?id=E7OXBNRMUUWin32: http://www.share-online.biz/download.php?id=L78K8NRMGUGSince the quark-algo is pure plain c, i compiled it for different processor/instructionsets, just pick one that works best for you. AVX better than SSE and so on. Win64 will definatly gain heavy speed improvements: On my old core2 laptop, I had a win32_sse3 run with around 9-12 khash/s per core. With w64_sse4 i got around 22-26 khash/s per core. Is it faster? Github?
Yes definatly, one core on wallet: ~11kHash/s, w64_sse4 one core: ~23kHash/s So at least on my testing machine and win64: around 100% gain Github will come hopefully after the weekend, and hopefully coreectly setup as fork. See above:) It's waaaaayyyy faster:) The pool is for now only a standalone p2pool. The blocktimes in the stats page are hours off, but following the link into the block explorer shows the right times in UTC. I hope to have next week some time to create/setup a traditional pool. Yeah nice, taking it out of the loop, need to try out whats the speedgain in the cpuminer. I wonder if we get even more gain (since memory is not an issue) if we create for multiple times used hash functions in one hash run, distinct contexts, and then combine them in one big struct, so thats one big continous block of memory which can be copied with one single memcpy call, instead now 9 calls for smaller blocks.

When getting rid of my old quark wallet and installing this new one, do i do it like with the scrypt coins. Like get the wallet.dat and back it up, delete everything else then install the new quark wallet? Also any step by step guide to setting this new cpu miner up on ubuntu 64bit?
