OK, how much for a 10% faster miner?
10BTC would be enough.
Sure you can
I actually think I could get 25% faster performance, but would only promise 10% to play it safe.
It would be even easier for Wolf to do it given his expertise with GCN assembler, but he seems to be having more fun doing other stuff.
Can Claymore also do that?
None of Claymore's miners (eth, zec, xmr) seem to use GCN assembler, even though people like Wolf and Realhet have been doing miner kernels in asm for at least a couple years now.
https://realhet.wordpress.com/gcn-asm-groestl-coin-kernel/Yeah yeah, all talk and no code. Theoretical code makes people no money. Zec is least profitable to mine now anyway. Theorizing is fine, but is worthless for bashing, and often theoretical speed != reality. If it is as awesome as you say, you would write it. What is the point of hyping up theoretical vaporware you have no intentions to write, just to try to discredit others? Is your theoretical skill over 9000?
claymore has said from the beginning for someone else to make a miner better than his and he will lower dev fee and/or beat theirs. So instead of talking a big game, just make it. Then you can say whatever you want.
