Let's do a profit calculation.. The nano can do 20MHASH of x11 0.020GHASH * 0.15 (Nicehash payment for 1 GHASH) = 0,003 BTC /DAY 500$ = 1,32BTC 1.32/0.003 = 440 It will take the Nano 440 days TO ROI with FREE POWER. And in these 440 days we have pascal and the 14NM chips comming.. So it seems like the Nano is a better buy that the GTX 980 then... Even if the 980 could do 20 MH of X11.

Fellow miners, get your thens and thans in order and help other forum readers understand what you are writing. Remember the grammar basics: B larger THAN A (comparator operator). If something THEN ....

[...] WHO on the forums actually does release their miner with conditions and prices that are clearly disclosed in advance? [...]
I did, not so long ago. Works out pretty well as far as I can tell, but would likely get very messy if said miner was being sold to a large number of people. I don't know of any other examples, but I'd imagine other people have done the same. Side note 1: Being public about the terms of the deal, and changing them after-the-fact, is utter bullshit. I'd say that's much worse than not being public about the terms but sticking to them no matter what. Side note 2: I understand people are around here with a miner's mindset, and ROI is king. But, if you folks care for the potential of cryptocurrencies at all, maybe someday, try to pick some altcoin that you like, mine it even at a loss, grow a bag, help that community, participate, develop some service, some utility. Much more fun, and oddly enough, big profits on occasion... I agree... ROI is king... It's hard to open your wallet for donations when there are cobwebs at the bottom (I'm currently negative last month because of Cryptsy)... Right now a 970 makes about $1.20 mining Eth without taking out cost for power. but then you understand, we may be reluctant to release new miners in these conditions... I mean you can't really expect us to release for free because the conditions are bad (because it would just be bad for us as well...) hence what is expected is that we find a middle ground or a compromise which would make happy everyone. and in that case dev fee isn't either a good solution, because miners won't wait for us before dumping on a coin... (and there are a lot more miners than devs) Not sure what you mean about a dev fee... A % based miner will be constantly mining whatever you have at your proxy setup for X algorithm. 98 shares for the miner, 2 shares for the dev. Maybe we've always been on a different page when it comes to a miner fee? You have a miner submit 98 shares for whatever pool they're connected to and then two shares to whatever pool you want for the algorithm it's operating on. That would be a 2% fee, relatively speaking. Or you could do it based on time... 72secs every hour. Also not entirely certain what you mean by 'bad conditions for developers'. If you say sold your Neoscrypt miner for .1 a pop three months ago things would be quite a bit different or even right now. Kernel developers basically help set the conditions for miners. I can look at SPs miner right now and go 'hey it's not going to ROI, but I have a option of a 5% faster miner in the future for .1'. And of course SP will be improving it so it turns into a better option into the future. So something like x11 will be about 5% faster. Still not profitable, but could be. Honestly though a % based miner is just the best solution. It rewards developers for making faster kernels constantly and gives miners big and small a chance to compete. You keep updating your miner and the amount of money you make keeps growing too. It's win-win the problem with the dev fee, is that it collects an altcoin, and technically there are a lot more chance that people dump the coin before a dev has any chance to do it, making it a rather bad deal for the dev.

@all devs decred devs only have a cgminer for both AMD & nvidia, please contact them to talk about bounty for ccminer fork for decred. They said it has a different "block header" so some changes will be needed. Here is a post on their forums https://forum.decred.org/threads/protocol-specification.33/#post-1367The kernel may work, but I ended up just writing my own. They don't have our block header specifications, so that miner will not work. It may give you a reasonable estimation of hash rate for the chain.

i have the dev donation links with various algos to mine as a donation through the dbm project - yet not many have used it - and that goes directly through nicehash to the devs account ... if more and more people used this kind of donation by mining - then we can all amalgamate our hasrates and make for a good donation to the devs ... my project page - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1089744 ... it all needs updating and a less 'messy' op - but the info is all there ... including tnelson and stratehm donation links ... all the links run through the stratehm stratum proxies - so not a single hash is lost through the proxy if the miner is set correctly ... nicehash themselves have kindly whitelisted ALL the server ips so that ALL servers stay online to the nicehash system ... give it a go and let me know if it is a system that will amalgamate / unite miners for a single cause or not ... there is also a rotational server that donates to most of the devs on the list - but i have not made that public yet ... rotates donation time through the devs btc addresses on a 24hour basis ... #crysx

decred is 14 rounds of blake. So the correct launch parameter in ccminer would be ccminer -a blake ...
But if the block header has changed, a code change is needed.

I have sendt version 3 of the sp-mod private to the donators/buyers. A boost in lyra2v2 and quark.
If you want to support this opensource project you should donate 0.1 BTC and recieve my private miner.
Sp-mod priv 3 on the gtx 970 (compared to release 74 (nicehashminer))
quark: +7.1% lyra2v2: +4.9%
Sp-mod priv 3 on the gtx 750ti (compared to release 74 (nicehashminer))
lyra2v2: +5.8% quark: +1.8%

soon sp ... i have other priorities that require thefarm and my attention ... vps systems - web services - code fixing / update - all cost btc ... and i have to have all of it by the 3rd feb ... so ALL of my resources will be focused on that at the moment ... ive only two weeks left to get payment sorted ... it will be very tight ... #crysx

Thanks for help ) Due to a higher BTC/USD change, X11 and lyra2ve may be profitable at times. They say ether is always more profitable but I don't mine it. I say mine if you use the heat you generate, to save gas/diesel/pellets/whatever.
