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) ? |

Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

Obviously, they are botnets. |

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 ?

Ah no wonder .. then its even more explicable I suppose ... didnt know keccak had a GPU implementation going so early. |

Each Nvidia GTX 780Ti is giving around ~200 MH/sec with Cudaminer. So it could be a 8 GPU rig (or) small botnet  GTX 780 Ti - http://www.flipkart.com/zotac-nvidia-gtx-780ti-3gb-ddr5-graphics-card/p/itmdsbyven2yezed?pid=GRCDSA4VE24PFZZE&cmpid=content_graphics-card_8965229628_gmc_pla&tgi=sem,1,G,11214002,g,search,,25649953100,1o1,,,c,,,,,,,&gclid=CLyTh7axubwCFWlT4god7A0AMg |
