Bitcoin uses Asic miners not 64 bit processors? Why not write the software to fit the hardware? and likely future hardware? AMD 128 Core Processors and 128 GB DDR5/6 RAM
Maybe it will be good idea to raise the bar of hardware expectations even more than 256 Cores (2x128) and 2TB of RAM.

Hi PttnMe, Right now I am testing your miner using fx8350, 32GB of RAM and W7 64bits trying solo mining with these rieMiner.conf settings:
Miner works fine, trashing my CPU at full speed, but still, I am unable to switch into GetBlockTemplate Protocol. (Benchmark only). Any idea how to turn it on?

Re: [ANN][RIC] Riecoin: constellations POW *CPU* HARD FORK successful, world record
The miner is working for RiePool and XPoolX. However, there is a bug that produces many duplicate shares for powerful CPUs. This problem is present if many threads are used, but seems to disappear if mining with just 4 threads or less (and it seems possible to launch 4 instances using 4 threads for a 16 threads CPU without issue). I will investigate this.
AFAIR it can be something similar to that issue when you try to generate random numbers using loop having only one variable to store them you will get same numbers changing every second. Every CPU thread needs unique variable. I think to fix this you need to declare as many variables as possible at the very beginning of your code and then limit them to what you need.

This should be obvious... They gave the users 1 month to withdraw, after this date, people will no longer be able to access these coins, so Poloniex can then do anything they want with the RIC in their wallets.
If they decide to dump the 10 M coins, we will pass a really hard time in the following months...
So, after completing successful update and comeback, there will be huge pump and then dump. Nothing will change, because all people are same. Just think about this, that someone influential will have interest in pumping this coin again.

I used 0,13BTC when RIC was around 130 sats and have no regrets. But please guys, you should not be so hyped until that problem with RIC will be solved.
