Any CPU only coin is useless. Just a get rich quick scheme for botnet owners controlling 50,000 computers. Either the algorithm has to be changed, or it has to go myriadcoin style somehow.
I mined BMR on day 2 and got 0. God forbid someone tries to CPU mine it a month from now. Coin is dead in the water until it's not CPU only.
That's called bad luck. I mined on day 2 with a stock CPU and found a couple blocks, which is about what's expected.
I like the idea of CPU mining sounds more fair to me although I don't have scientific data to prove my hypotheses. But Mining is a 24h a day job intensive CPU usage..., so if I have a 10000 nodes botnet I would not risk to loose it (except for a very valuable coin) ... much better sell or rent a botnet on black markert to ddos targets ...
Dude im using i7 4770k @3.9ghz and test it at 4600 ghz with my WC system. i think already foun like 4000 blocks, less than a day of mining.
