Since we dont want GPU on this coin!
Wrong answer. CPU only coins are garbage because they're controlled entirely by botnets. Anyone you see arguing for one is just an illegal botnet operator. From my understanding, GPU should have less of an advantage over CPU over time, but will still have advantage. This coin is the first logical evolution of LTC and isn't marred by the premine scandals of Freetrade & MMC. I like how we got gpu miner for your coin within 2 days. So much for cpu-only coin. If you do something, do it properly, not half-assed.
For the 10th time, nowhere in the original post does it mention ANYTHING about this being a CPU only coin. Been lots of crying botnet operators posting in this thread so far. This coin is an evolution of LTC, not a get rich quick scheme for botnet operators. The GPU miner was also openly available from the start, so nobody was at any disadvantage like how Quark launched and people developed GPU miners and kept them secret and closed source. The release of this coin is as legit as it comes. Actually the modded cgminer wasn't available until a day after launch.. It was initially only minable with the wallet. The dev did initially state he wanted to keep out GPUs (during pre-ANN), but later decided that preventing ASICs was the main goal. I'm glad that's the direction this coin went, because GPUs are a good medium between the big-money ASICs on one end of the spectrum and the CPU botnets on the other end. |

Even in the event that an attacker gains more than 50% of the network's
computational power, only transactions sent by the attacker could be
reversed or double-spent. The network would not be destroyed.

so is CGminer working?
How much you get from scrypt 1 mh/s here?
How about market? Did it build up? Is anyone buying / selling this coins? What price..
thanks, new to this coin.. looks promising as it is not another scrypt clone..

cgminer is working. Network hashrate is about 35MH/s, so if blocks are being generated at the target rate of one every 2.5 minutes (which since the last difficulty change, they aren't so far off) then 576 blocks are generated per day, or 28,800 coins. If you're 1/35th of the network, you should be able to mine about 823 coins per day, assuming the hashrate stayed the same - the network hasrate is continuing to grow a lot though as the CPU miners find and install the patched cgminer, so you'll probably get less than that, potentially a lot less depending on how many GPUs hit the network over the next few hours. |

cgminer mod works. Expect about half your normal hashrate on amd gpus, and expect to spend some time tuning your settings, as they'll be different from normal scrypt mining (lower thread count is the main thing). |

Many thanks to Aleks for releasing the CPU-enabled CGminer. Can we get that for Linux as well?

I'm finding the odd block with the windows version. I compiled for linux, but have seen only rejected blocks so far, perhaps I did something wrong. Can someone else compile and post a linux binary? |

hashrate dropping The hashrate is not measured it's calculated from blocktimes, so if blocks come a little slower for a while it seems to drop - it's not necessarily really dropping, it can just be variance. |

Block time becoming really stable now, definitely settling down. The GPU miner being out might change that again once people realise how much they can mine though since a lot of people still haven't realised it's now GPU mineable I think.

Please can miners follow the advice on http://vertcoin.com/ and move to (or start on) one of the smaller pools. Still pretty unbalanced on the pools (but improving) - please can some people move off of pool.pm to help secure the network. |

LOL @ Mr. 10 MH/s.
Please spread the hash around to even the pools up.

Looks good. At least not another one of those cut & paste coins. Keep it up & cheers.

My config for 400KH/s on R9 290:
"scrypt" : true,
"auto-fan" : true,
"auto-gpu" : true,
"gpu-threads" : "1",
"gpu-dyninterval" : "7",
"gpu-engine" : "1000",
"gpu-platform" : "0",
"gpu-memclock" : "1500",
"gpu-powertune" : "20",
"intensity" : "18",
"temp-overheat" : "80",

"worksize" : "512",
"lookup-gap" : "2",
"shaders" : "0",
"thread-concurrency" : "24550",
"no-pool-disable" : true
Turning intensity down to 13 makes the desktop usable with no noticable UI lag, and loses only about 15% of hashrate.
