Hell guys,
can you give me a hint what hardware should we look for in the market now, to make the mining process profitable when the main net lauches? "PoW algorithm: Mainnet: a memory hard POW" (6GB gpu-s, antminers, sthg like that?)
Thanks! Really interesting project you put together guys!

Thanks! We currently use SHA256 in the Betanet and are still doing some tests with different memory-bound PoW algorithms regarding efficiency and support. On memory-bound hashes, the mining speed is bound by the memory latency. GDDR5 memory on latest graphic cards does not have a relevant latency benefit (if at all) compared to DDR3/DDR4 which is used by the CPU. We'll have to try it out, but our target is to be solely memory-latency-bound because this will reduce power consumption of miners (basically putting your CPU into waiting for memory most of the time).

We are confident we will make the right choice for the final Mainnet PoW and we'll update it here for you to take in consideration.

I appreciate your quick response, thank you!
