when gpu miner will be avaible?

We have currently  only cpu miner. I have a offer for a gpu miner. ~1.5 BTC

You do? Why make the XEVAN algo if you wanted a GPU miner? You could have used ANY GPU algo out there...

have a unique algo is a very effective multipool protection

additional its to be expected even if a GPU miner can be done
his advantages over a CPU miner would not be that big that CPU mining lose any sense

but in that area u are way more specialist wolf0 whats ur opinion?

See Pallas' answer. It's the same old shit. People who don't realize more chained algos is not "more secure" or better in any way, making their coin and making a really stupid PoW. I would have made it for myself as well, but... not a lot of point. Maybe for the bounty?

He's also right about the speed - will shred CPU mining.

The algo was easy to create, the most works was the switch function from x11 to xevan. (The wallet database has make lots of trouble here)We can now in future easy change the algo. But i think xevan works well done and it is for the next time asic free. My objective is now improvemt from the core. On block 239.000 goes the DK3 online and we change the blocktime to 3 min (POW is than 25 BSD per block). The source is already online (1.2.6.).

Best Regards Christian

Note: For Android was Xevan hard works.

ASIC-Free was the goal? I've got some news: If it becomes worth it (or even close), ASICs will be developed. Right after FPGA implementations have been running a while. You're not resistant to anything - boring the shit out of people like me with more algos isn't a defense once the coin becomes monetarily worth making an improved miner for.

Yes i know. Important for me was the change from x11, the big multipools jumps shortly in the chain and increase the diff. And the chain was stucked.
