sp_ where do you mine dark I will send my 980's over there overnight as a donation
Thanks! you can use this bat file to mine darks for me: ccminer -a quark -o stratum+tcp://yaamp.com:4033 -u XdgfWywdxABwMdrGUd2xseb6CYy1UKi9jX -p x

I was trying to mine dark with x11 at one time... does it support more than one algo or does that pool auto exchange out to your required coin >?

The pool is also mining the x11 algo and have darkcoins. The coins are not exchanged on an exchange, but within the pool. you can follow the hashrate here: http://yaamp.com/?address=XdgfWywdxABwMdrGUd2xseb6CYy1UKi9jXcurrently 45MHASH quark is payed more, and the miner is 100% faster than x11 on the gtx980. but this can change... That is why I am optimizing all the algorithms in ccminer.

Of course, Darkcoin is deprecated and Dash is what is meant.

I am not crysx, but I can help answer these two questions:
1) NONE of us are mining SHA-256 algorithm. You are of course correct about ASICs dominating SHA-256, or any other algorithm for which ASICs exist. (Scrypt) [Are there others?] Which is exactly why we don't mine any algo with ASICs. We are GPU miners and this is a thread about the fastest nVidia-based GPU's using SP's optimized miner.
2) That oil-cooling stuff is indeed awesome, but the implementation costs would likely destroy any chance of achieving ROI. (Public) Colleges have plenty of (public) funds to spend and they don't calculate ROI like us GPU miners must do.
1) Aha thanks a lot for the answer. So ASICs have a much lower hashrate compared to recent graphic cards when mining any other algo apart from SHA and Scrypt. So my guess is professional miners prefer to have a wide range of algo options and mine any altcoin directly rather than limit to a couple of algos (like SHA and Scrypt) and use the exchange market to get any desired cryptocoin. 2) You're right. I've just checked the cost of mineral oil and would make it unprofitable. (geez 12 gal 230$!) ![Shocked](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/shocked.gif)

You're welcome. To clarify for you, it is not that " ASICs have a much lower hashrate compared to recent graphic cards when mining any other algo apart from SHA and Scrypt." It is that an ASIC has NO hashrate for any algo other than what it was designed for. Application (in this case, algorithm to compute/hash) Specific Integrated Circuit

The pool is also mining the x11 algo and have darkcoins. The coins are not exchanged on an exchange, but within the pool.
With a bit more clearification from yaamp.com: "We also allow payouts in any currency we mine. Use your wallet address as the username."

lol oops. Thanks for the clarification, I'm very noob at cryptocoins in general yet ![Lips sealed](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/lipsrsealed.gif) Before I was looking at the option of mining sha256 altcoins with an Antminer S5 and exchange them for two or three strong altcoins as a long term investment but now seeing that there are many sha and scrypt altcoins with proposals of migrating their algos when ASIC catch up I think investing in a better graphics card may be a better idea ![Undecided](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/undecided.gif) Have to say that it is a bit confusing ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif)

When your GPU stops being profitable because of newer better hardware coming out, you still have a graphics card. You can use it for gaming, or sell it on ebay pretty easily. When your ASIC gets outdated, all you have is a very noisy room heater for the winter, which doubles as an ugly paperweight in the summer :-)

I was trying to mine dark with x11 at one time... does it support more than one algo or does that pool auto exchange out to your required coin >? we have setup some donation links specifically for miners who want to donate with hash ... its still in test - but the links for sp are active and will mine on nicehash ... when the urls become static - and people are interested in donating that way - we will expand it to most algos and different devs ... but for now - sp is one which links have been up and running - and seem to be donating fine ... ALL of the hashrate goes to the donation target and we do not charge anything - so none of your hashrate goes anywhere else but to the donation link ... its for the devs - as we like to see the devs benefit also from the work they have done ... #crysx

Just checked the 100 biggest cryptocurrencies
The Total Market Cap is: $ 3,711,589,576
but BTC is $ 3,204,123,046 alone
Total marketcap on the 100 biggest Alticoins: $507 000 000
Dash: stats 04.06.2015
Reward Per Block 4.64 DASH ($12.7 USD) Reward (last 24h) 2,959 DASH ($8,113.2 USD)
Total Dashs 5,425,769 DASH
Mined coins/totalcoins per day 0,0005453604825417374% of the total supply (per year 20%)
Estimated total value mined per day in the world for the 100 biggest altcoins: $507 000 000 * 20% / 365
$277 000

not sure if wrong place to ask but.. i had radeon 280x hynix, fast one mining x11 at 1250mhz clocks it got broken and they are now offering me nvidia 900 series card. question is which model i should prefer? 960, 970 or even 980? rules are simple, card should be faster than my older 280x, not equal speed. mining algos is what matters, not gaming
