I only work if there is an advanced payment. Too bad!
Actually, I am quite busy right now anyway.
I *think* I found a crack in one of the major algorithms.
If rumors are correct, somebody must have been taking advantage of it for quite some time now.

Oh will you stop teasing us all the time
OK, OK. I will disclose as much as I can. I am not going to reveal everything as I still need to pay my bills, though.
There is a critical flaw in Ethash'es memory-hardness as you can generate DAG on the fly with enough computing power.
This is probably impractical with GPU's, but it seems that it is quite possible with FPGA's and ASIC's.
I found an efficient way to represent an Ethash DAG with a memory footprint in the order of several MB's,
which is three orders of magnitude less than the original DAG. I might be able to implement this method
with Vega if I can squeeze everything onto Vega's 4MB L2 cache.
Wow, very interesting. You're knocking them out of the park bro! I've always loved your miner for all of the algorithms that it's been able to mine and now that you're adding more algorithms, it's even better. Thank you for all of your hard work. Cheers!
