I am increasing the reward for the first open source GPU miner for SKC to:

512 SKC + 0.25 BTC

Can you get this on an exchange? What did they say when you contacted them?

Reorder is doing it for free.

I have contacted all the major exchanges but haven't heard back from them.

I have contacted all the major exchanges but haven't heard back from them.

Maybe they didn't get your email? They accept so many premined pump and dump coins that they should accept this one. Which exchanges in particular, maybe there are others?

[Simpy12]

Sup, can I buy it somewhere?

Somebody tested GPU miner on coinmine?

I think that the mayor advantage of SKC is availability to mine with CPU only, today one user made more MH/s than all the users combine (and i doubt that 400 MH/s could be made with botnet, cloud or VPS etc) and that was a bit f**d up (it also fu**d up difficulty).

I feel that SKC got potential.

Stats of the coinmine.pl also looks promising, yesterday 49 workers with 224 MH/s, today about 84 workers with 428 MH/s.



We need good marketing, and other pools (maybe beeeer would be interrested?)

(and at the end hi all).


Also, there could be 32 Bit miner

And some stats:

Core 2 Duo T9600 2,8 GHz - Ubuntu 13.04 - 1340-1460 khash
Intel i5 3317U 2,4 GHz - Windows 8 - 1340-1450 khash
Intel i7 3770k @4,5 GHz - Windows 7 x64 - 5200-5400 khash

Azure - Large (4C) WE - Ubuntu 13.04 - 2340 khash
Azure - Extra Large (8C) WE - Ubuntu 13.04 - 4500-4800 khash

And also a win8 miner plz
Doesn't even work with compatibility. Does the code explicitly say win8 is incompatible?

[gielbier]

I'm using the x64 variant without any problems on Win7 x64 WinXP x64 Win8 X64 and Win8.1x64. I think the problem is on your end.

Also you can compile the x86 from git.

i hope SKC will be on cryptsy till NY

I pm'ed reorder asking about the gpu miner. His response was:

"....snoopdoug has volunteered to clean up the miner and publish it later.... If you wish, I can give you a copy of my miner at a promise to not distribute in its current state."

I got the source from reorder, and I have to agree, clean up and optimization are necessary before release, but it works (a little). Hoping to see a gpu miner release soon.
 
Many thanks to reorder for sharing the code, and showing how far along it is.

(As far as hashrate goes. the version i got from reorder is doing about 40 MH/s on a 5770, so 4x-5x time as high as an overclocked 2500k@4.8, also this proves that there are no gpu miners being held hostage. reorder was testing diff adjustment if I understand the code correctly so that would explain the huge increase from the other day)

Please release ASAP, as you are getting 6K SKC / day because of holding it. This is not fair to others with GPUs and those CPU mining.

If you are unwilling to wait, you can probably ask reorder for the source, but most of it is allready here in this topic. He has never been greedy about it, but he will not provide support because it's simply not ready and snoopdoug is apparently working on it. But it's far from point and click.

also, I hold no claim over the code, so it is not up to me release it.

(with python2.7 x86 , mako ,numpy, pyopencl, pytools and ipython. from www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/ and poclbm source and the posts made by reorder you actually have all you need.)

(edit: back at cpu speeds, seems not to run properly long term)

Is there a block explorer to use the Tx-ID's? Found it! https://andarazoroflove.org/explorer/skeincoin/block_crawler.php

Reorder’s GPU miner has been posted to github at https://github.com/snoopcode/poclbm-skc

Props to reorder for making it work, and then contributing back to the community.

I suggest that reorder is awarded the bounty for the first working, open-source GPU miner for Skeincoin.

I’ve done some minor clean-up and plan to make more tweaks.  Feel free to fork the repo and help with improvements.

If you’re a fan of Skeincoin, please let Cryptsy know at https://cryptsy.freshdesk.com/support/discussions/topics/45090/

Thanks,

Doug
