To remove the 10% dev fee on b8 version just edit the binary using vi editor :
vi xptminer-sse4-b8
:,$s/RUhMA8bvsr48aC3WVj3aGf5p1zytPSz59o/Your_Address/
(ENTER)
:wq
@miki, did you really want to start an arms race? I have no desire to make it hard for people who really object to the dev fee to remove it, so I left it simple as you noticed - with help - but you should consider the long-term effects of your actions with respect to the incentives for miners and developers and creating a thriving community for the coin.
well 10% looked a bit extreme guys...dont you think?
when clintar had 2% fee i mined for 10 days even after removing his fee
but dont you think that 10% is too much? and we already know that you guys mine with optimized miners before us...
I dont say if it is bad or not to have a fee. or mine with optimized miners. after all those that have the skills must gain. I am saying that if fees are extreme people dont like that and will find their way to not pay it... it needs an equilibrium.
I think 10% is way too much. I'd rather have a sensible minimum set, and allow users to set it higher if they want.
At 10% (and this before pool fees), it's hardly surprising that people will try to circumvent it.
