This is supposed to be a pool for mining Maxcoins (crazy as some people get i know )http://max.1gh.com/

Since this is a cpu mining coin only I see some of the miners are showing like 100s of MHps .. a normal cpu would only give a few hundred khps ... do you guys think those are botnets (specially the one showing > 1 Ghps) ?

Cudaminer (GPU miner) is already out. Many people are using it. It hashes very high on NVidia cards.

I know kinda silly question but say 1,600,000 khps for the one at the top gives like 800-1000 computers only for an avg of 200 khps ... Not as big a botnet as I thought earlier ... just didnt do the conversion .. sorry for the silly question lol.


Are you mining this coin btw ?

Each Nvidia GTX 780Ti is giving around ~200 MH/sec with Cudaminer. So it could be a 8 GPU rig (or) small botnet Wink
