Get real, no-one can ever say, what SP_ has done is "Greed", he made a small margin profit on doing some research and lots of coding work.
Whether it's greed is irrelevent, it's just my opinion. It's what he is doing now that is the problem. What he did in the past was good. What he is doing now is not. He can do whatever he likes with his code, that is his right. But he has no right to publish binaries of modified open source code without making his source modifications public.

...Secondly, he was the main coder for the spreadcoin Nvidia miner. nope - just to point the credits to the right guy... it was TSIV!https://github.com/tsivsp_ just optimized and sold it... as usual.

He is not publishing these items, in the conventional sense you are implying. None of people getting the private miners can code and nearly all are unable to compile on Windows. They are getting a lock version as far as they concerned, which they do not have the skills or knowledge to change in any way.

PUBLISH ON REQUEST WITH A FEE--
He does not have to toss his code to the digital waves. He is allowed to ask for a fee for the code, and to publish only on request.
He can charge for a binary, and charge another fee for the code, on request. That allows for a delay in release of the code, to prevent instant cloning of his work. He does do assembly modifications to existing code. That is his "art".
--scryptr
He was asked by a major donor who doesn't use Windows and refused. MY RIGS ARE ALL LINUX-- And there may be more to things than you say. The other fella is another story. I do not know the whole story. --scryptr

My private kernals are running fine on linux. You just need to setup wine.. If you don't know how to do it. Use windows.

With Wine, what would you need to install extra software or is it just the latest version and run the exe through Wine? Have a really tiny SSD on my Nvidia rig and Windows 7 takes up nearly 50GB.

I just have to LOL on compiling ccminer. If you can't compile it, you are just lazy imo. It is so easy.

Maybe you could try compiling without source code to see how easy it is. Or maybe you could post something in context with the recent discussion, which was about the availability, or lack, of source code. If people who don't know how to compile are lazy what does a post like yours make you? I could answer that but I'm not into name calling.

It's actually pretty ridiculous to see people hate so heavily on those that aren't part of the 'elite'. If you take it far enough you end up in the group where people are lazy because they aren't writing their own code to optimize algos. It's stupid.

I buy private Nvidia miners. Send information and/or inquiries to my PM box.

I don't find a linux version of the Nanashi Meiyo-Meijin's ccminer 1.7.6, just the Windows. Are the sources available ? I"ll make the compilation for my Linux RIG.

You can run it in "Wine" on Linux - the program that allows you run Windows programs on Linux. I've not done it yet. Put it into the shell "Configure Wine" and run it from there.

If there is only a little difference between the NiceHash and Nanashi version, this difference will be masked by Wine.

Hay, that is not really lazy, by any definition of the word "Lazy". Have you seen how many people, who buy GPU's and then sell their mining allocation for BTC each day. There is no real profits in doing this, most of the real profits come from mining a crypto and holding the coin to build it into a Top 10 Market Capitalisation. Look at Dash (the coin formerly known as Darkcoin) when it was being built over a 3 year period, it was being mined for an average price of £1.00 a coin 2014. Today, those people who mined and held their mining allocation, have been rewarded for building this coin with a Dash price of £5.50. Those miners, who did not sell their Dash have seen 550% increase in there wallet values. Those people, who mined and sold their Dash have made 0% profit. 2014 BTC was £400 and today BTC is £400, which means 0% profit for 2 years of mining with GPUs. Now, that is where and when you should use the word "LAZY"

Too much mystification around this Lyra2REv2 optimized miner Anyway, we bought this optimized miner from the developer that contacted us and offered us to sell the miner to us. He never used his real name so we can't confirm his real name and thus can't mention him as an author ... anyway he never even asked to be mentioned. But he is a good dev and already working on other improvements. And since we like open source we put the sources online - even if we could only put binaries (we always release source, the only case when we don't release the source is when we only buy binaries). We are however a bit disappointed on you, sp_ ... you grabbed the public source and put it into your private miner (greedy) - now this is really not nice, you should put it in your public github repo and make a new public release. Anyway, keep on hashing Best regards, NiceHash team. Default intensity parameters of your release of new lyra2rev2 miner are "eco-mode" for gtx750. I put -i 20, the gpu memory load increased to 600+mb and hashrate from 6020 to 6200. And yes. ccminer-1.7.6-mod-r5-fix is slightly faster then yours ...
