[ANN]DEFT First crypto utilizing the balloon hash, new memory hard algo

[barrysty1e]

Somebody is mining with 56 KH/s. Is it really using CPU? I am curious somebody is using GPU rigs to mine this coin. Please enlight me...

at the moment it is all cpu. i realise that to anyone skeptical, 56kh might look like a lot, but in reality it is either a set of physical/virtual servers working as a single user.

i have started working on an implementation for gpu, but this is more to offload the hashing algorithm so it doesnt bog down the user's machine, as it won't hold a great deal of advantage over cpu due to the way the hashing works.

i'm currently separating balloon from it's dependency on the openssl library (sha, evp and aes functions); i'm about 1/3 of the way through, once it is independent, i will attempt an opencl kernel. however this is all being communicated clearly and will be publically released, not a private or 'for sale' miner.

Nowadays what makes a coin important isn't what hashing algorithm it uses, but its purpose. Is there any purpose other than to show off a new algo?

Any Linux binaries available? I know with Argon2 coins, the Linux binaries often perform better than Windows.

### CWI PYROXENE (theMINE) - DEFT

Hi All ...

For the last two days, only a day after we opened the pool, we had an attacker send false shares and flood our pool, making almost impossible to mine at Pyroxene - Deft.

We have located the IP, which came from China, and since have locked the account and banned the IP.

We have decided that it is fair and NOT unjust to have a ZERO TOLERANCE policy placed on the pool due to it's small hashrate and the number of people mining there. So if this happens again, we will not notify, we will just block and contend with it as we see fit, including ANY and ALL of the funds that the attacker may accrue towards his/her account.

Pyroxene - DEFT is now open again for mining, and we are working on a number contingencies to mitigate such foul behaviour again.

We also would like to acknowledge that MOST of the miners and users are fair in use and mine with honest intentions, so if there are any questions, please ask and we will endeavour to ensure that we answer as promptly as possible.

Pyroxene (theMINE) main page is located here - http://pyroxene.chainworksindustries.com/
Pyroxene - DEFT is located here - http://pyroxene.chainworksindustries.com/deft/

Remember - the more miners, the more chance of solving blocks, and the more decentralized the mining becomes. As always, if there are any issues, please notify us via the Pyroxene Thread, here, or via the CWI-Slack.

Thanks,

#crysx

Poo.Deft.Host is not showing how much I made .... Can this be fixed ?

U can use this. Its is very basic, but it helps.

by connecting all CPUs You have on disposition to the same wallet address You can make great numbers
it depends only how many CPUs do You have ;-)

[kerzNOberz]

can anyone comment on what hashrate to expect from a i7 8700k (stock speeds) with the cpuminer-balloon ? mine seems a bit low @ ~600h/s. thanks!

[big_daddy]

Pool really sucks, we don't have any information about what we are mining !

Ofcourse you have dear
Just use the ctrl+f in your browser, add your wallet adress, and you will see what hashrate are you generating

great job. First Yiimp implementation for balloon hash,.

[kerzNOberz]

Started this up on a few machines on the official pool. Has anyone benchmarked on various CPUs? For reference, some of my hashrates are below.

i7 8700k 4.7Ghz (Ubuntu 18.04 // 12 threads): ~630h/s
i7 4790k 4.4Ghz (MacOSX // 8 threads): ~270h/s
i7 860 2.8Ghz (MacOSX // 4 threads): ~145h/s
Pentium G4440 (Windows 10 // 2 threads): ~100h/s
Intel Core m5 1.2Ghz (MacOSX // 4 threads): ~90h/s

hi scorpio18,

please revert to commit ff6700b82918f718c8155bc9f06d9e1d28453613, yesterday's commit was a patch to force segwit signalling to help diagnose icemining but this resulted in a fork as you can see.

i'd inserted a shim between nomp and the daemon a few days ago (to observe the json 'chatter'), and it receives a 'default_witness_commitment' when it requests getblocktemplate - unsure why yiimp is having trouble in this regard.

we can trade only on discord? or?

cpu only with gpu miners? LOOOOOOL

Its scam. Avoid this "cpu" coin

those are consumer grade CPUs

can you benchmark a farm filled with
Dual Socket Mobo
https://www.amazon.com/Supermicro-H11DSI-Dual-Socket-Motherboard/dp/B077YV53TZ
Using 2x Epyc 7601
https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819113471

?

Or can you benchmark someone that just throws 10k usd per day to a cloud computing service like digital ocean, amazon aws or google thingies ?
You know that you can mine to a single address with multiple rigs at the same time and the hashrate will be combined, right ?

Its scam. Avoid this "cpu" coin

how ?
Can you elaborate ?
I mean, maybe, who knows but you don't say why.
That's typical merican, guilty until proven innocent, right ?
fucking hell

We are not fools here, this is ONLY CPU COIN, now thread are edited, and there is no "only cpu"
So someone have gpu miner, and that is reason why hashrate is so high
