It looks like it is really hard to find a new block with current difficulty.
I mine with drk.smalltimeminer.com and it took us 13 hours (!) to find a new block.
On coinmine.pl/drk I also last block was found over 4 hours ago.
Waiting for difficulty to decrease.

kgw will activate at block 15200

I've been reaching out to the pool operators and getting everyone to update and haven't heard back from Yobapool and CPU-pool. Can anyone using these pools shift their hashing power to one of the other pools in the mean time? We need to know they were updated successfully.

Yobapool is tiny and CPUPool has been updated (or is in progress).

Thanks! Do we need to restart miners?

No, without problems

So, have all the pools updated? If so, only solo miners are at risk for being left behind

All except for yoba it seems, which is ~300Kh. So we're in the clear

Have the exchanges updated?

How hard would it be to be 100% sure that GPU mining will cost more in electricity than CPU per kilohash?

I estimate GPU uses 4 to 10 times the power of CPU, so as long as GPU wont speed things up more than 3 times, DRK will be CPU coin forever. Of course anybody with a gaming rig and 3 GPU's would get 10 times the hash rate of normal PC, but they are also spending 1kilowatt hour, every hour.

This dolphin begs for this

We can't really do anything to stop miners from moving to GPUs in the eventual. It doesn't look like anyone has succeeded in making a miner that works well yet though. GPUs are in the natural life cycle of a crypto though and I'd like DarkCoin to follow the same path as Bitcoin did.

I fixed it on the front page.
