LOL. I AM sixstringsofire. Thats why I noticed the high hash rates, they're making my profit margin drop like crazy.

The top two hash-rates on suchpool.pw are from an "anonymous" user. 1 worker with ~288kh/s and another with ~286kh/s. To put this in perspective, I'm running around 120 computers (i5s fully loaded) and only getting 260 kh/s.

The way I see it there are two options:

1. This is the private GPU miner we've all been fearing.

-OR-

2. This is a botnet all reporting to the same worker.

Until the IPs are resolved, there is no way of knowing. Any thoughts?

I know that sixstringsofire is college students doing an experiment and mining Friday - Sunday. The other 2 anon workers with the high hash are probably botnets, but who knows. My theory on the GPU miner is, that someone that would be motivated enough to have develop the gpu miner config, would probably have a lot more hash coming towards the pool. There are some strong parameters in Yescrypt to defend against GPU's. Just my theory though. Grin

I totally forgot about that. You could point your hash to http://bsty.minerpools.com/ (they have 8 workers) or https://bsty.suprnova.cc/ (no one is there yet) that would help you get your hashes get the value back. Grin
