Re: [ANN] cudaMiner & ccMiner CUDA based mining applications [Windows/Linux/MacOSX]
Most people don't seem to grasp the importance of 'open source' to this economy. Open source attracts a lot more people to any project, it creates an inclusive community (as opposed to an exclusionary one), and establishes long term growth. Would Bitcoin have ever been worth *anything* if most of it's mining remained concentrated on a couple of 'closed source' projects?
Note: I've nothing against closed source, and certainly nothing against Christian making huge profits
, but I remain confident that Christian and the community at large, will continue to drive cuda mining forward in an open fashion.
To the earlier poster that asked about XMR/BBR mining profitability: I should have added that I'm still mining XMR myself, even if it would barely pay for the electricity. I have strong convictions to XMR's long term value, so I'll continue to mine & hold.

Of course open source is much better, but what we got here is Christian's source instead. C&c are the only developers of ccminer, if it was a community effort, it was a different story. But as long as he got better code that he keeps for himself, what btw he's totally entitled to do and I have nothing against it, its not really the open source community you're talking about.Note: I've nothing against closed source, and certainly nothing against Christian making huge profits

@bigjme of course it would require much more work and funding from his side, but will also make it more profitable, imo.
