Re: [ANN][SPR] SpreadCoin | True Decentralization (No Pools)

Stopping mining now is a very bad idea. This miner seems to be kind and not using his power at full capacity, hashrate is about 8-9 MH/s, this is not something we never saw with CPU-only miners. It is the last chance to mine with your CPU, soon it will be impossible.

I started to work on an AMD miner, I haven't previously done anything like this, hard to say how long will it take.

And what about the hardfork witch slighly changed algo?
Miner included in wallet will include this change and private gpu miners will need to redesign their software.
Smart change in algo will sloooooooow down this redesign.

Small change to the algo implies small change to the miner. This may give us a few hours or a day at most.

well, a small change might be something that requires huge amounts of memory, or even to use diskspace in order to be calculated, which makes the use of GPU so slow that CPU are still usable for mining. (take a look at the momentum algorithm used on protoshares, miners are only 2 or 3 times faster on GPU).

I like your idea @girino. This coin was good because you could mine it with a cpu. There are already a lot of gpu coins and if the coin changes to gpu then the big gpu farms will hit it hard.
