Re: [ANN] [XDAG] Dagger - new cryptocurrency

Can we do a voting for gpu algorithm? I would vote equihash.

Not subject of change.

I dont like the idea to switch to GPU mining... that would (once again) strip out a lot of people from gaining access to the project. Currently its very easy to get people in xdag cause everything is just a simple proggie, no bloat.
For me sticking to CPU is the right way...

I agree. There are people at the community who aren't equipped with gpu's and who are participating a lot, like designing stuff, managing discord, etc. And more useful people might come, coz all you need is your regular computer.

We will have GPU miner really soon. Experienced coders can code a miner fast. GPU miner = better decentralization because CPU mining is abused by botnet miners and AWS stolen credits...

it's GPU mining which is abused, you can rent a shittone of rigs at nicehash etc.

I agree...as was stated earlier, the fact that this coin can be mined on any pc keeps a lot of people involved in the project....the minute the gpu mining starts, the community is going to shrink rapidly....maybe in the future, but its too early now

cpu botnet will do more damage than gpu miners once the XDAG will get enough exposure. You only can rent rigs on nicehash if algo/miner is added there.

There is nothing to stop the hackers from explointing the gpus of their botnets.

Sure more people that are already in crypto will have gpus for mining.
