sp_ how much do you want for your quark private miner? or DJM? or even x11 and Lyra2REv2
Not for sale. But if djm34 sell his kernal I might sell it.
Just to summarize a bit the way I do things, for me for a sell to be profitable it has to reflect, somehow,
the time I spent in coding (regardless of the coin value ) hence if the coin value is low,
it wouldn't be profitable for a miner to buy from me or it wouldn't be profitable for me to sell below my time/money equivalent
(and would be bad business practices as well since when I work for a coin dev I charge along that time/money equivalent).
so for the moment, it isn't for sale...
also as already said multiple times: trust is important for me... (private miners are sold in priority to people I can trust)
Just wait till it's unprofitable then release it for free or for a very low price. I bet that will appeal to the majority of miners and makes sure you maximize your profits! XD
You have to consider you guys aren't the only ones making miners. Private kernels devs exist, especially for big farms. Whole reason people still mine x11.
if it isn't profitable to release then it isn't released, and the fast code may be eventually used elsewhere
(other coins, other algorithms) to keep the edge... hence no hurry as far as I am concerned
And you missed the part where if you don't release anything you're neither profiting nor helping anyone else... As you've done in the last six months.
There is no 'ROI' on code. It's not the same thing as hardware. You can sell as many copies as you want and the demand for it is only reduced by the desire to want it. So if there is a competing product or they can get it for free. But since there are 'no' products available, you aren't really accomplishing anything.
This is why a open market for kernels would be a really great idea for alt-coin mining. Hopefully Nicehash will eventually do this. It wouldn't require that much development time.
nice to see you back around here induktor!
since Quark mining is right about at the cost it takes to mine, i only have one or two rigs going, mostly for space heaters since the temp is dropping nicely outside.
all the other algos are in the shitter. i think BTC needs a nice big pump.

Feathercoin...
I was reading the last 40 pages (i've been out a while) and I was wondering, why is there is so little info about power efficiency?.
isn't the most important factor in mining nowadays?, specially today that is barely profitable?
power here is getting expensive fast, and unless i found the most efficient way, i will be out of business soon!.

As mining is in the shitter, donations are low as well. I just gave you 5% in the quark algo and 5% in the lyra2v2 algo on compute 5.2 devices.
5% increase in the hashrate with the same watt doesn't seem to be much, but your profit will increase with more than 5%
If your powercost is 90% of the Mining revenue, a 5% faster miner will give you 30% higher profit.
Please donate to get more hash. (and recieve private profitable miners if you reach 0.1 BTC (spreadcoin/penta/cryptonight (0.1 BTC each))
Too bad there aren't good miners to buy.
