is there a profit calculator for this coin or not?  can I be use cpu for this coin or not?

CPU mining is possible. Top CPUs like i7's overclocked at ~4.5 GHs report close to 900khash with the 1.3 AES/AVX miner (which is around the hashrate of a mid-level GPU of the 58xx and 68xx series).

To expand on AlexGR's post, CPU mining on X11 is actually quite favourable compared to other PoW algorithms. You can actually get a nice little boost off of using your CPU I find.

what is a good pool to mine this coin?

I may mine this coin with i4770k (8 threads) , i2700k ( 6 threads).

Greetings all

I'm looking to build a small community with a very basic function. To this end, I've registered the domain http://darksend.it. I intend to share the domain with everyone, so read on.

The function is to be a shorturl of sorts for darkcoin addresses. Registration costs .1 drk, and if darkcoin ever reaches USD $10, $100, the price will change to .01, and .001. The target is a dime.
example: http://darksend.it/dime http://darksend.it/newuser

I intend to give the domain "back" to the community in the following ways:
1. (this one's just self promotion) The web server is hand written and as I think of more things for the community, I will use my time to build them.
2. Once there are over 1000 users, I will throw the dns over to afraid.org, which has a long history giving free dynamic domain hosting services. This means you'll be able to point you.darksend.it to your webserver, or your computer, etc.
3. Anyone who contributed over 10 (this may lower) drk during their registration will be given an account on an IRC bouncer running on the root domain itself. So you can irc as you@darksend.it. This isn't automated yet but I'll likely work on it soon.

#3 can backfire so it's not a guarantee, just a best effort type scenario. Allowing people to irc with your domain is asking for a ddos and coming back for more. But if it works out, this would be awesome.

If you have any ideas for what the site can become, feel free to hit me up (drkdime) in the official darkcoin irc channel on freenode, but keep in mind I prefer text to the over marketization the internet has become.
I'm looking to build minimalist but useful services, not be another fanboy cheerleader site.

how do I setup i4770k to be at least 800 kh/s?

I've been looking to upgrade my HTPC, and I think I will go with that I7 now. I've never had a CPU slowly pay for itself before. My rigs are all on FM1 socket APU's that have a negative return.

There isn't really a lot of customizing for CPU mining when compared to GPU mining. Make sure that you use the 1.3 miner (available here http://wiki.darkcoin.fr/index.php?title=Installer_Minage_CPU_Windows assuming you're on Windows) for improved AVX/AES implementation and a performance bump. Other than that just pick a pool and turn on the miner as you would for any other coin.

Are you running windows or linux?

for windows, unzip this: http://darkcoin.io/downloads/darkcoin-minerd-1.2c.zip

into a directory of you choice, then put this in a batch file and run it:

Code:

minerd-core-avx-i.exe -a X11 -o stratum+tcp://darkcoin.kicks-ass.net:7903 -u [your Darkcoin address] -p [any password]

just paste your Darkcoin "Receive" address into the -u and you can use any password you choose after -p.

This is a link to my P2Pool node. P2Pool doesn't require any prior setup - just mine and coins will come to your wallet

If you want to check out more, my node is at http://darkcoin.kicks-ass.net:7903/static and you can find other p2pools at darkcoin.mine.nu

The OP of this thread also has links to other pools.

I don't know if you will get 800k out of your 4770 without a bit of overclocking, but you will probably get around 600k out of the box

Yes, this is a shameless plug

What he said plus use -march=native and -O3 if you are compiling the miner in linux.

Other than that, if you are aiming for most kh/s, clock the hell out of the cpu and use all threads. However this might not be the best solution in terms of power efficiency. Usually the most power effective way is to use standard clocks or slightly higher clocks but with lower voltages, even if one loses khashes. If the watts go, say, from 70 to 100 just to get a +10%, it's not worth the difference.

+ what HammerHedd said just now.

[splawik21]

I have to admit, there are lot of ignorant stupid people!

48 hours Coinmine is over 50%

Many people already wrote about that but apparently those that mine in coinmine are idiots.

can`t the admin of coinmine just close the new registrations for some period?

he did, but it doesnt seem to be enough, if i was pool admin in that situation i would try with raising the mining fee, until it got under a specific point... something like 45 % or so

it is a good idea I think!

is haswell , ivybridge and sandybridge use same or not? I use minerd-core-avx-I.

is that correct?

is there a 32bit version or not?

Subscribe if you haven't already - we should try to move some of this conversation over there, it's way quieter than it should be.

That's because many of us refuse to move there with the current color scheme.

Try the various files (especially those with aes+avx) and see what gives you the best performance.

It primarily depends on what instruction sets your CPU can use.

You can download Intel's CPUID program here: http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?DwnldID=7838

When you run it, it tells you which technologies your CPU is capable of.

If these two are Yes, you can use minerd-core-avx-I

it seems i7 4770k have everything. I already overclocked to 4.4ghz right now.

minerd-avx-aes-sse2-sss3 -a X11 -o stratum+tcp://drk.cpu-pool.net:3500 -u darkcoinup.encoder -p xx
pause

is this correct?

According to the readme, you will probably get the most out of minerd-corei7-avx-i, but try them all and see what kind of rates you get. I'd be interested to know what the best one for a 4770 is.

Code:

corei7-avx-i:
	Optimized for 3rd generation Intel Core processors and laters.
corei7-avx:
	Optimizes for 2nd generation Intel® Core™ i7, i5 and i3 processor families and the Intel® Xeon® Processor E5 and E3 families.
bdver1:
	Optimized for AMD Family 15h core based CPUs with x86-64 instruction set support and laters.
aes-sse2-sss3:
	Optimized for generic processors supporting the AES-NI, SSE2 and SSSE3 instructions set.
avx-aes-sse2-sss3:
	Optimized for generic processors supporting the AVX, AES-NI, SSE2 and SSSE3 instructions set.

the most I can do is 675 kh/s on i7 4770k cpu with minerd-core-avx-I

[AlexGR]

the most I can do is 675 kh/s on i7 4770k cpu with minerd-core-avx-I

try -t 8 in the cmd line...

[HammerHedd]

Sounds about right.. I get about 400 kh/s with a stock 3770k
