Gapcoin's first record in the 15000-19998 range with a shift 700
https://bchain.info/GAP/block/125025

@j0nn9 - Looks like gapcoin.org thinks shift 700 is shift 594?  Also, curious if there are any plans for a CRT on GPU?  My machine with faster RAM seems to have gotten a better benefit to this new algo, would be interesting to see how a GPU would handle it.


Edit: Looks like the shift 700 blew the doors off the bchain.info calculator, it concatenated some of the last digits on the start number.  Calculating by hand the two ends are primes per factordb.

Thanks for pointing that out!

It was a database error on gapcoin.org. For the gap start and end there were only 256 Digits available, so that the last (decimal) digits of the number weren't saved.
bchain.info is propably suffering from a similar issue.

The database is currently recreated, gapcoin.org should be fixed within a few hours.
