has the pool prepared ?
or only solo mining?

[Videlicet]

LTCMAXMYR,

I'm going to develop a pool for CPU and GPU miners post-launch. Solo mining for now.

  its time to make huge profit with private gpu miner? its another "cpu" algo coin ,  you know it

its time to make huge profit with private gpu miner? its another "cpu" algo coin ,  you know it

it can be mined with both a gpu and a cpu.

[Videlicet]

Actually, I spent quite a bit of time designing the multiple channels to only recieve 50% of the total supply, CPU miners get exactly half, GPU miners get exactly half. This should reduce the impact any private GPU miners could have on the everyday CPU miners, the second factor will be a continually updated public GPU miner.

Making some final touches, will be releasing launch binaries tonight with a time-lock for tomorrow at noon. Depending on the level of GPU miner development, I will have a time-lock on the GPU channel [for a given time post-launch, hopeful for the time-lock to be tomorrow] which will reject all GPU blocks until that time. Once the channel becomes active, the CSD Released Reserve will be given to that channel in pieces for the time it was dormant, or in other words: no matter when the GPU channel launches, GPU miners will receive the same amount of CSD from the Main Net Time-Lock as the CPU Miners, and this will be broken into ~63 CSD chunks for wider spread distribution.

What if a private gpu miner for prime chaining appears?

[Videlicet]

Then I would create another CPU channel, just the same if a Private ASIC came for the GPU channel.  This would then result in 3 mining channels, and more choices for Miners.

Progress is inevitable, all one can do is keep up with it

So when exactly will CoinShield be launching?

[Videlicet]

http://bit.ly/Zonumm

0 days 21 hours 53 minutes 42 seconds

Launch binaries will be released tonight, blocks will begin to be accepted at this time-lock which is hard coded into Coinshield Core.

any bounty for a opensource gpu miner?

[Videlicet]

any bounty for a opensource gpu miner?

Yes, but this will not be immediately available [with there being no pre-mine]. There is a development fund outlined in Decay Equation #3 for just this Purpose [so bounties will be given out + 1 or 2 days post-launch]. Currently Bitslapper or whoever else contributes to that development will be the ones receiving that bounty. If you are interested in contributing [or know anyone who is], PM me or send an e-mail to videlicet8@gmail.com.

Thank You,

Will 64bit binary be available at launch, as for prime search 64bit is generally ALOT faster than 32bit.

[Videlicet]

Here are compiled binaries for the CPU Prime Miner [x64 coming soon]:

I'll get to that post-launch. In the meantime anyone is always welcome to compile one from my Github 

Concentrating on a stable launch before mining optimizations

[merc84]

It would seem unfair to those who can't compile their own binaries that there would be no 64bit version at launch. There is a massive gap between performance from 32bit to 64bit when searching for primes.

[Videlicet]

Yes I completely agree; I will do my best to get a 64 bit binary compiled by tomorrow, but do realize there are a lot of things I must coordinate, and I am currently the only person coordinating.

Thank You,
Viz.

Thanks for the reply, appreciate it

Doing my best to help everyone get involved that wants to
