Looking for collaboration on dev work

Hey,

It's been long since my last post and everyone must've forgotten by now. I was on an extended break because of high school getting tougher. Now that I've graduated from senior year, I look forward to getting back into the crypto dev space at least until college starts. Some of previous projects include a stratum SHA-256 miner written from scratch, first Gpu miner for keccak and momentum among others.

Looking forward to any replies!

you have a big typo in your readme title :p doesnt make serious :p

Mutli Cheesy Cheesy I'll fix it. How do you think the quality of the code is?

Very nice; I've my own that mines four algos on stratum atm, but I want to make it more fully-featured.
Hi Wolf0!
Thanks for that. My miner is almost ready for linux support now.

Hello fellow programmer!
Shall you need inspiration, feel free to take some MIT code. It was also written with clarity as a primary objective and has been refactored a few times already. There are only an handful of kernels but at least they are unencumbered by GPL constraints.

Hi,
That's almost exactly what I hope to do. Hopefully this will be able to become the base for my future miners. Thanks for linking to your project, I'll definitely have a look.

what is the cpu usage (lol, my question doesn't make much sense since it is a cpu miner) for the non mining part ?
worked once on a a c++ miner and the cpu usage was rather high... (the mining was insured by gpu's, the reason why I ask the question actually)

Amazing I never thought about it. It is quite high, 5%. I'll work up on that.

EDIT: Strange thing is up, task manager reports 5% in main window, negligible in detailed. Resource manager shows negligible as well

I will set up thread affinity as well to improve it nevertheless.

(ranting) non-const by-value vector argument Smiley
Code:
bool StratumHelpers::GenerateMerkleRoot(vector TransactionHashes, uint8_t* Coinbase, unsigned int CoinbaseLength , Hash& MerkleRoot)


Not sure I understand. What's wrong with it?

The reason I made arcMiner is because all existing stratum miners I knew about had a very messy code base and were very hard hard to compile in windows. arcMiner has a completely different code base which is supposed to be clean and easy to read and understand so that other developers who have are struggling with stratum can understand it easily.  

Right now it only supports scrypt with stratum but in future it should be able to support xpt and multiple POW like keccak etc.

This shouldn't be of much interest to normal users.

Compile instructions for linux are up at github

Any bounty for a proxy that allows any existing momentum miner to be used with this coin as well as merged mining?

All right, progress report

I have a implement the hash functions and modified them to work under C. The network protocol around is also partially done and should be complete within a day or two

Any updates?

Yeah, scrapped that. I'm working on a new protocol with crypto_zoidberg so it would take some more time I am afraid

Will stratum in simpleminer do?

No. Christian needs cpuminer-multi for the GPU miner.


UPDATE - According to the pool developer, LucasJones, the pool code already has stratum support built in. So only cpuminer-multi needs to be updated.

Yeah I know but cpuminer has got to be the messiest stuff on the planet

250 reallocated from GPU bounty by shojayxt, sent to donation address.

Received

Interested, I need the details on this.

a ) Which server do I need to edit?

https://github.com/LucasJones/node-boolberry-pool

Will do, what's it worth in BTC?

Oh and which miner needs to be edited?

mropool.com

It's still in beta testing
Even in beta it is still kickassing (as a monero)

Trying to mine to donate hash to get a block and prove the pool works.. but getting failed to connect?

stratum+tcp://mropool.com:7706


The server host got a bit messed up
