NSGminer v0.9.4: The Fastest NeoScrypt GPU Miner

[JasonSW]

Any numbers to indicate this new algo is energy efficient, compared to X11, FRESH, WHIRL, etc? Scrypt generates a lot hot, if NeoScrypt is doing the same or not less significantly, don't see a good point people will be on. Or if the memory is the point with with ASIS will never arrive.

No official numbers until GPU miner is tested. If anybody gave you numbers like 30% it is from thin air.
Testing is needed first.

Awesome, now the only thing which needs to be developed is the GPUminer

[anixosees]

I'm excited to get mining again

Feathercoin can be switched back to a compatible ASIC at any time in the future, in the same way it is opting out of Scrypt ASIC mark 1. The ASIC development could be done backwards,,

1. Develop an ASIC that can only be run on one algoryth (not scrypt)

2. Change Feathercoin Hashing Algorythm to accept those transactions including updated miners for ASIC and GPU.

I am not sure what you are trying to say here?

The idea of developing neoscrypt for Feathercoin was not to prevent ASICs all together, but prevent Scypt ASICs. Litecoin has a huge hash rate advantage such that pools or large players can coin swap to attack the Feathercoin network. The idea being that, at a later stage, an ASIC would be developed just for Feathercoin.

I am just pointing out that we could design the ASIC first, then change Feathercoin to compatible algorythm. As opposed to designing the ASIC to do neoscrypt.

(Note. Ghostlander implemented the new hashing algo in Phoenixcoin first, Feathercoin will not swap algo till GPU miners are available.)

[ghostlander]

It may take years to see any NeoScrypt ASICs.

1) NeoScrypt is much different to any existing algorithm including Scrypt, so it's unfeasible to implement it as a by-product to them;
2) NeoScrypt market share needs to exceed 100M USD in order to justify the ASIC development costs and it isn't going to happen any time soon.

So, did both FTC and PXC already implement the code for NeoScrypt already? Is there a gpu miner in the works? Would not be very ideal if this algo stayed too long as a cpu only, that just make it botnet friendly.

Neoscrypt has not been implemented yet, there will be plenty of notice to ensure everyone updates before the hardfork.

yes there are GPU miners in the work.
Neoscrypt has been released so anyone can develop a gpu miner for it and the race is on to see who will be first.

I've been searching around for the tentative date when the algo will be forked for those coins.

[cryptworld]

I have seen neoscrypt in some coins,it is really interesting
but no GPU mining yet?

Will there be a Stratum module for P2Pool coming out any time?

This python module works with P2Pool

No date has been set for Feathercoin yet, not sure about Phoenixcoin, but check on their forum for that.

Phoenixcoin already implemented NeoScrypt, its gonna get live on block 400k.
