Wow been a while since I've seen a new version of Claymore coming out. Looks like V15.0 has been released for over about a day and only about 20 posts followed the launch. This is actually pretty low compared to the good old days of 2017 where whenever Claymore released a new version usually about 5-10 pages would happened in the following hours after the launch. His ZEC miner was also pretty popular during those days.

Its sad to see GPU mining going downhill where many people have moved onto something else. Really hoping that ETH devs do something and get ProgPOW added to the Q1 2020 fork and we might see a comeback of miners.

But right now in my area, I am getting barely a quarter a day of net profit with a single GPU. Sure wish the days of $1/day/GPU would come back.

ProgPow is not going to solve that. On the contrary.

The algorithm is designed to make it easier for FPGA's to join the game.

I hope i'm wrong.

The long ProgPOW audit which is being conducted by a 3rd party is suppose to investigate that isn't it.

Because right now we have say 50% ASICs and 50% GPUs mining on the old DaggerHashimoto algo. If ProgPOW will turn it into a haven for FPGA's where 90% FPGA and 10% GPUs then most likely the algo will never get changed since in my opinion FPGA's depending on the supplier, can become more centralized than ASICs themselves.

No idea when this audit will come out, was suppose to be due end of August according to ethermine pool.
