Something tells me this is WAAAAY too lucky.  How often will my hashrate find blocks at the current difficulty?


WOW! very lucky..  Shocked

Difficulty is 220 Billion, so with 330 KH/s it will take on average 8 days to find a block. But the difficulty was only 77 Billion when you found the block..
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.

GPU approaching? diff has just doubled in last hour Huh

Botnet power ^^ haha say godbay BBR mining

No -  http://boolberry.com/state.html

Botnets don't cycle on and off like that when the diff increases.  That's cloud.

I wonder if someone could create a coin that blocks cloud IPs...

I doubt this will work, people could then rent dedicated servers with high CPU

Perhaps, would it be possible to apply a cap on how much CPU power someone can mine with?

That can't be enforced and what's the point in doing that, anyways?

The point would be more egalitarian mining.

By the way, a GPU miner is out for the other cryptonote coins already

I don't think this is a goood thing..it will promote centralization

The speed is equal to a high powered CPU, so Its not really all that much of a benefit. Also, we are waiting to see if it is even cost effective based on power consumption. This will give the cryptonote guys something to work on if they do indeed want to remove the fact that its possible which would just be a fork away.

While I believe a GPU miner for wild keccak is possible, it is an extremely different hashing algorithm than what the other CryptoNote coins currently use.

Thing is, a GPU miner would likely be extremely profitable to keep running, even at a high difficulty. However, you'll notice that, upon crossing the point where each coin mined on EC2 would cost more than it would sell for at the exchange, the hash rate drops off extremely quickly.

To all who is wondering where did the evil came from: if it is a super-GPU or it amazon: take a look to BBR graphs: http://boolberry.com/state.html



You could see there just a lot of new connections, and a lot of peers appeared in greylist. And this is only peers seen by one machine(monitoring node).

So it seems that it was just huge amazon evil.

>And how much do they pay each time they do that?
Unfortunately not everyone have to pay for servers Sad

And considering people are saying this coin is no longer currently profitable to mine with EC2 instances, and afterwards the hashrate triples or something to that effect this morning, I would have to conclude someone found a way to write up a GPU miner.
