sd.. its just easier to put him on ignore.. that way you dont have to read his crap

I have reported a few of his more hostile posts to a moderator in the hope he and anyone else from his IP gets banned. I don't think many moderators will approve of his racist agenda.

Even with all the nonsense CoinHunter has posted I've never felt the need to report posts or ignore people before that anti-Japanese rant.


If you get his IP banned, I fear that it will block CoinHunter too, so we won't get news about SolidCoin anymore.
That sucks.  Not that I like specially solidcoin, but a bit of respect for undangered species please.

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.
Advertised sites are not endorsed by the Bitcoin Forum. They may be unsafe, untrustworthy, or illegal in your jurisdiction.

I just want to let you know that my exchange (https://solidcoin24.com) will support SC 2.0 as soon as it's out.
You can register already now; depositing BTC and NMC works.
Since yesterday there's also a market where users can trade directly with each other in many different currencies (USD,EUR,GBP,CAD,AUD,CHF,JPY) and with many different methods (bank transfer, PayPal, Moneybookers, Dwolla, ...).

It depends. If the workload is purely ALU-bound or FPU-bound and there are few instruction interdependencies, then each thread of a HT core should deliver exactly 50% of the performance of a single thread running on it, as they share execution units. IOW HT doesn't help at all increase performance.

However if the workload is memory-bound, if execution units are mostly idle, then each thread of a HT core should deliver about 100% of the performance of a single thread running on it. IOW HT doubles performance.

For real-world workloads, the number falls somewhere in between 50% and 100%. CoinHunter reporting 90% means his mining algorithm is mostly memory-bound.

Real-work workloads gain 10-30% from HT.  That's tested results, not theoretical stuff from whitepapers.
All time absolute record that I have seen is around 40%.

You did not read me correctly. You are talking about a different percentage scale. When I say "50% of 1 thread" it means "0% performance gain from HT". When I say "100% of 1 thread" it means "100% gains".

IOW, you agree with me.


100% gain means double performance from two threads compared to one.  I have never seen, heard about, or read about an instance where HT doubled performance, or even close, excepting SC2.
In real world benchmarks, adding a HT thread adds between -5% and 30% performance.

Yes, it is very rare that HT doubles performance, but it is nonetheless possible to construct synthetic micro-benchmarks that demonstrate this. The dubious usefulness of HT against real-world workloads, where performance gains more often tend toward 0% than 100%, is one of the reasons why AMD hasn't bothered implementing it yet.

Also of note, 3 wannabe hackers from this forum claimed they would take down the SolidCoin 2 public beta and none have. Welcome to the future of cryptocurrencies, a truly secure network.

Nothing being revealed during your tiny beta means very little. If I had found a vulnerability during the beta period, I wouldn't tell anyone. I'd wait until after adoption of the full release, and then I would relieve you of the burden of having to divvy out that premined fortune you have.

Source code is dependent upon the trolls.

Are you saying that if trolls are loud you'll release it sooner to shut them up, or later to punish them?

When will source code come available?

What if the final version has a keylogger or walletstealer inside?

TrojanCoin2?

Sorry... I won't run this without knowing if it is safe...

I was looking forward to giving it a go too, but without the source code, it's a no-no for me.

I see no reason for closed software, unless there is something to hide...
And what about safety of the coin? People like ArtForz found/fixed many errors/bugs but can't keep an eye on it anymore.

I like to try out new alternate coins but I'll skip on this one...

I just put the code through Google Translator and it translates it to Jibberish.

Is that modern or antic Jibberish ?

Anyone going to 51% this with a bunch of high-CPU AWS instances?

LOL fail. It cannot be 51% because of new design with policing peers. Haters gonna hate.

There is going to be a successfull attack within 48 hours after launch.

Code:
$ ./solidcoin
./solidcoin: error while loading shared libraries: libpng12.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Hmh, dynamically linked against legacy libpng? No prob, I'll just recompile it for my system's libs. Oh, wait...

ouch! sc2 website down?

I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the iSsue of their Currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around [the banks] will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs.
