The Xevan miner was just released. Another alexei rippoff with some added new padding bytes. The miner was profitable for 6 hours. and when the windows binary was released, there was no profit left. So the opensorce miner is now worth nothing.
Krlx got his bounty of 0.5btc, and with your logic, he should share the bounty with the real developers of the ccminer right? 99% of the code is written by me and the other devs, he just changed a few lines of code to claim the bounty. 2-3 days of work. 0.5btc. Nice inside job..
YOU MAY BE RIGHT ABOUT PROFITABILTY--
I mined for months with CPUminer-OPT, and quietly stacked BitSend away. Occasionally, I would mine with the SGminer for Xevan, on 4 x RX 470 cards. That would calculate at about 5+ MH/s, total. BitSend would peak every so often, and my BitSend would sell at 2-3 x the normal market price.
My 1080ti is now doing almost as much hash as my RX 470 4-card rig, about 4.9MH/s at "-i 23". Most of the hash on YIIMP is now from KRNLX's code, and I think the market will suffer. If the "mine and dump" strategy is employed by the majority of the miners, it may be a long time before another price peak.
My 1080ti does fine with KRNLX's code, but my 960 cards kept crashing. If I set the intensity for those cards to "-i 16", they were stable for ~10 minutes, but still crashed. I hope that KRNLX will refine his work. --scryptr
