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

[informixx]

good idea, interesting algo and features, but 9% of premine is a bit high nowdays, especially it's not a long-term rewards like founders reward in zec.

What are you talking about? are you delusional? I don't think you realize that this is now just another abandoned crypto project added to the list of dead coins.

You know with certain that we are working on a upgrade to multialgo an fair mining.

What are you talking about? are you another lambokid who wants instamoney and starts to mine, dump and move to next coin?

If you take a look back at my posts I started mining this coin almost since it started when it was CPU only and I made the terrible decision of holding my coins and I'm still holding them.

How does the fact that you forgot to dump make this a dead project?

I can't really say it is dead for certain and I really hope it's not, but if you take a look at the github last commit was June 23rd.

can any one provide me mining tutorial for this coin ?? i have been trying mining this coin but no luck... i am using nvidia cards... can any on help me , that would be greatful for me.... thank you

i have asked about mining tutorial in discord tooo... but no luck... i downloaded miner... please help me with batch file creation....

[Texacha]

Download Cubaloon 1.0.2 and then create "bat" file like this:

cuballoon -o stratum+tcp://deft-eu.leafpool.com:6633 -u dHtpGmSBnp1UeThMWZYj56ZAQ1DJntTRUN --cuda_threads 448,448,448,336,336,336 --cuda_blocks 64,64,64,48,48,48 --cuda_sync 0 -t 0

Ofcourse, after -u you should type your deposit address and you would probably have to play with --cuda_threads and --cuda_blocks numbers. In this example I have 3x1080ti and 3x1070ti, so first 3 numbers are for 1080ti's, and last 3 for 1070ti's. If you have 1070 or 1060, try smaller numbers. For example ---cuda_threads 224 and blocks 32. When you get them to work several hours without problem, you can try with larger numbers. Those numbers should be 32, 48, 64...

Hi, I'm using this script at the top here and getting the result described below.  Any advice, please?  I'm mining on a computer with a single Titan V and I just want to mine from the GPU. Thank you.

Try adjusting the settings for cuda threads and cuda blocks or just remove them and see how that goes, the Readme file has some instructions under "Tuning".

This is an academic project and the researchers are coming back from summer work starting next week.  Hopefully it'll signal a restart of work (and Github commits).  This is a very low-emission coin, it won't take much for the value to go back up.

[fr4nkthetank]

I really hope the devs come back strong from a nice summer vacation.   I kinda like this one.

[Texacha]

Me too. I really like emmision (only 2.8 million total supply), but I don't like that 250k premine.

[fr4nkthetank]

Yes, premine is way too high.  Like a big sword hanging over your head.  They should airdrop it, burn it, or do something productive with it. 

[poiseulle]

I also need a mining tutorial for this coin it's a lot different than existing algos, the new algo seem very interesting, hope it can resist the machines produced by Bitman.

Eventhough it's a new algo, the GPU miner is based on ccminer so the instructions and settings are pretty much the same.

[fr4nkthetank]

you can also mine DEFT with the new t-rex miner 0.6.3

That one is really good, it's a shame there's no miner that supports AMD cards yet though since I have a few of them.
