Would it be possible to design a scrypt asic so that running n units in parallel gives script-n? Granted some software support from the miner app would be needed too. That way, changing n would not completely obsolete the hardware.
Also I see n doubling each time in the schedule, is n=3072 etc not possible?

it seems like it will just adjust the algo to something like x11, but does it change the memory hardness schedule?
It's not clear if vert is going to become multi-algo (lyra2 and lyra2RE) or one or the other or what, tbh... I hope: only lyra2RE (just to avoid unnecessary confusion)

@ noobtrader yes saw this too and was going to ask the devs same question Is there a place for VTC in the SuperNet. Paper here: http://209.126.70.170/SuperNET.pdfI am still trying to get my head around it - but its very interesting! Quite ground-breaking ideas IMO

My farm is idle for 1 month now and waiting for winter, so the house heating expense reduction can even out the losses on the electricity. How the algo change will change the temps on gpus?

The new algo is supposes to use less ressources on the GPUs so less heat and less stressful. We'll have to wait and see when they try the implementation on monocle.

I have also kept few of my GPUs for Lyra as they are not even worth selling at current rates.

also, there's a nice web wallet here: http://vtc.li/ where I'm pretty sure you keep your keys.

Another new project that showed up on reddit but hasn't made it's way over here yet: http://vertvpn.pw/ A vpn service that accepts vert for a lifetime ("lifetime") use of their vpn service. Doesn't seem to be operational yet, but the dev has contact info on the linked website and at /r/vertcoin over on reddit.

I think someone should be updating this thread. I regularly visit reddit and blog but newcomers may not know about it.
|
Got my account back! It was hacked. Sorry about it :|
