Does anyone know how long it is until we start voting for logos?

[Mr. Spread]

Looks like it would be possible to get around 500 kh/s out of amd r9 280x but I'm sure that by tuning some parameters you would be able to get more. Miner isn't ready yet, last missing piece is yet to be implemented, currently it generates invalid blocks. Will release it as soon as it is ready, probably 1-2 days.

In fact voting was supposed to start today. But there are just two submissions even though I contacted everyone who was posting logos in this thread, maybe I didn't make it clear that voting should start today and people think that there is more time.

I really need to sleep now, I was working on this miner for many hours today (and not only today), will decide tomorrow what to do with this situation, probably we should give people some more time to submit logos.

Maybe you should let the voting start now and if people send you their submissions then you can add them in.

Great news,I'll keep mining with AMD miner as soon as it released.

You are doing a great job. I was hoping for a pure cpu coin but if you have to go gpu then I understand.

Voting round finished. Winner is OrbitCoin with 324 votes! (0 BTC + 324 free).
we need to wait for the next round.

Well you could have said it was for the exchange and not the logo contest!
I almost had a heart attack.

don't worry ,we have a big chance to win the next round.

can i make the greek translation?

[cointhinkers]

can i make the greek translation?

YES,YOU CAN!there is bounty for you.

well, a small change might be something that requires huge amounts of memory, or even to use diskspace in order to be calculated, which makes the use of GPU so slow that CPU are still usable for mining. (take a look at the momentum algorithm used on protoshares, miners are only 2 or 3 times faster on GPU).

Requiring to use disc space is surely not a small change. Their whitepaper seems to be outdated, when reading it the first thing I thought was that you can use bloom filter to significantly reduce memory requirements. Some googling revealed that someone else already pointed to this and other vulnerabilities in the proposed scheme were found. They seem to fixed them to some extent but its not fast to find any definite information. This all will require time, I can't just copypaste some code into SpreadCoin without understanding it.

GPU miner is my priority now.

Bloom filter is actually slower than the currently used solutions, since false positives are quite costly. Some people have tried it already, and using a regular hashtable and ignoring collisions is way faster (up to twice as fast depending on the implementation). But still, due to the size of the search space (2^50) and the amount of data to be hashed (2^26), even bloom filters would use an amount of memory that would not fit in the local memory of  any GPU in the near future. So, even with a hashing data structure way more efficient than bloom filters (say, something twice as fast as the current implementation), we'd still have GPU and CPU mining ration bellow 5:1, which is quite acceptable. But then, momentum is not the only way to abuse the use of memory, there might be simpler ways to do so (preferably something that can be used with hashcash PoW, which makes for a much simpler transition). But then, i'm not the one deciding the priorities.

Yet, the fastest pts miner uses a kind of a bloom filter in LDS.

im surprised more coins havent tried using spreadcoins "no pool" feature..its genius

[Mr. Spread]

can i make the greek translation?

Yes, we need translations, there is reward for that

You can just upload it to http://postimage.org and then copy the direct download link then paste it like so;

I still have only two submissions for logo contest. Voting for logo will start at 21 November; this date will not be moved again.

I will again contact everyone who posted logos in this thread and ask them to choose the final variant(s) that they want to submit for contest. If you posted 10 logos in this thread (which is great) then don't expect me to choose the logo(s) that you want to send to contest for you (to submit logo to contest just PM me).

Rough draft still doing some work on it let me know what ya'll think and if i need to keep on or give it up.

Think it has potential, anyway to change the wording? not sure to what though.

to the many? or something to do with decentralization 'plura'
