Hi there,

II know I said next week, but i managed to build some experimental gpu miner binaries Grin.
I created a new release which includes the stratum changes from nonce-pool,
and some bug fixes regarding the device selection.

But still, the binaries and source code are very experimental!

All binaries are linked against AMD APP SDK v2.9
You can get it here: http://developer.amd.com/tools-and-sdks/opencl-zone/amd-accelerated-parallel-processing-app-sdk/

the most other dependent libraries are linked static.

Windows: https://github.com/gapcoin/GapMiner/releases/download/experimental-binaries/windows.zip
Linux: https://github.com/gapcoin/GapMiner/releases/download/experimental-binaries/linux.zip

thank you for this

Second richest darkcoin address has moved. In bitcoin people would get fear at this point. Actually a lot of big holders moved.

That's Mintpal's cold wallet iirc, you can follow the transactions back to multiple mintpal addresses.

https://chainz.cryptoid.info/drk/tx.dws?595614.htm

Is this good or bad? Did they announce it?

wtf are u talking about?
its people pulling coins out of mintpal

my only problem with that rocket ship is that it should be pointed east at a 45 degree angle for the gravity burn to get into orbit or it will loose all its delta V and just fall back to earth.

Maybe i play to much Kerbal Space Program though

Re: October 2014. Are GPU rigs useless?

Just came back from a 4 months hiatus from the world of crytos. My GPU rigs have been asleep for the summer because of the heat. Right now, is it still possible to use a GPU rig in a manner that will be profitable? Or should I just dismantle them and sell the parts?

The days of mining shitcoins and dumping them on fools is over more or less, only the real coins will survive these shakeouts

mining and holding good coins is still totally viable med-long term

that being said, sell the rig and get cloud mining, thats what all the cool kids are doing these days

One thing in my mind since yesterday...
I do scrypt mining and use BTC payout. Altcoins and dollar stay stable - why do my BTC payouts drop ? Shouldnt they rise ?

I am a bit tired these days and may be i just dont understand it  Huh

Ugh, BTC drops making what you pay in fees cost more, if BTC ever hits about $150 it will not be profitable at all anymore to mine.
All coins are getting slaughtered right now so the coins you mine are worth way less, add the drop in BTC price = paying more of your BTC in fees and mining becoming way less valuable

I really cannot believe the stupidity/money ratio here with you people, its a basic as it gets!

@Genesis Mining

Considering the huge price fall in the last days at which price you stop mining coins ergo we dont get our daily payouts. This is a very important question. At which price your mining operation is no longer profitable and you have to stop?



mfg dead

all good till btc hits about $150

Those advocating the end of PoW are just not smart enough to understand what PoW does and how it is helpful.

Camo, POW is brilliant. It was a genius way to secure the bitcoin network. I'm not 100% certain we don't need it, but I can't seem to find anyone who can tell me why masternodes can't do the job even better. You have very clearly explained that you think POW is important. I agree. Now explain why, from a technical stand point, it is necessary at all for DRK if the masternodes can complete the same task even better.

because it is not any better for the MN to totally control coin production, even a Proof of stake system is better than that, its cheaper to run than a MN and everyone who has coins can contribute not just those with 1000+ coins.
We all know POS coins are garbage but yet its still a better cheaper system than what you suggest

pow is not perfect and supporting it with MN's is the "perfect solution"

the whole discussion today is about masternode owners shutting off pow mining and doing it all themselvs, maybe you do not see it because you have your anti troll filters running full blast Smiley

I'm still waiting on a sensible argument as to why miners are 4X more valuable to DRK than Masternodes...

MNp2pool mining solves a lot of problems and also provides an easy way to integrate Masternode shares at a protocol level for people who can't or don't want to put up an entire Masternode, and allows MNp2pool ops to free up DRK to deploy more Masternodes if the MNp2pool node balance remains above 1000DRK due to miners carrying a balance there to earn MN shares.

50/50 MN/miner split sounds very reasonable to me with this approach.

well right now about 60% of the network is not even making masternode payments because they do not comply with rc5. so lets wait untill enforcement and instant tx are in and then maybe you would have an argument because right now miners print the dark and mn mix'em and other than that mn's do dickall and dont even deserve the 20% imo

Actually over 76% of pools ARE paying Masternodes currently: https://drk.mn/blocks.html

And do you really believe that without MNs and anonymous transactions DRK would still be worth anthing close to what it is?



drk was over $15 without mn's and is $2.50 with them

There is a problem when asics come along and suddenly only an elite group has the chance to mine though.  
Hey Tante,
The idea being proposed isn't to only allow MN operators to mine, but to do away with mining completely. The MN network would handle block generation and distribute payments in the same manner as the current 20% they receive off blocks. So no asics at all.
wow, so the entire future of DRK lies in the hands of a few completely centralized masternode owners?
No it's just something this G string guy and a few others are ranting on about, basically they should of got into building a centralised banking machine that could be sold once set up  rather than supporting a decentralised crypto but there we go it's a free world so we stuck with um.
I ignore trolls spreading lies and FUD, so I don't know waht crap they're telling now... There is no centralized anything in DRK. Lies designed to fool the stupid. Grow a brain and you won't have to wonder who is telling the truth or decide who to believe.

Crazy people talking about bad ideas, that they do not understand are bad ideas, does not mean the devs are going to do it...

May as well try to tell an anti-gun idiot that guns are good things... They're stupid and brainwashed. Just ignore them.

the whole discussion today is about masternode owners shutting off pow mining and doing it all themselvs, maybe you do not see it because you have your anti troll filters running full blast Smiley

How's the debate going? I've been busy getting people into the Dark.....

It's an uphill struggle Tao, but so far none of the dinosaurs have credibly justified why they're 4x as valuable as the upstart mammals.
Thats just an ignorant comment.
we are all on the same side here and want to see dark succeed

There are problems with a PoW system and there are many unknowns about this masternode system and likely it has its own problems that need to be discussed and worked out
you may not be wrong but you will not convince anyone with that attitude towards the miners that got you here in the first place

Pardon me if I don't subscribe your your religious belief that miners have a god-given right to slurp from the cosmic money hose forever when technologically superior solutions come along and offer greater security and innovation for a fraction of the price.  Roll Eyes

im just a kid with a 7950 and mined a few darks for my own interests and now i am being shut off the network and treated like shit for trying to be a part of something i though was going to be big.
All i ever wanted to do was take part and get a few darks and now some bigger kid with more money comes along and says nope sorry we don't need you anymore, we are buying up the entire system and going to print darks ourselvs between us. if you want to play get out your creditcard.

despite what you may believe i am not scum, i just don't have the resources for a masternode and i still want to be a part of this

a nightmare for everybody else.

How?

The purpose of the coin is to be used as a currency. Explain your nightmare situation or how this proposal interferes with the purpose of this coin.

When a handful of people hold double digit % of the total coin supply then this is a HUGE problem(and they do!)!
now they are the only ones creating dark shutting out everyone else, kinda like you know the IMF and big banks?

not to mention the miners add another layer of security to the network

The bot is near complete, poloniex, c-cex is done, and waiting for cryptsy support to reply.
 

so after 2 months of dev time you havent developed a thing but a stupid trade bot?
You don't even have to do any real work, you can just edit the darkcoin code and have master node systems and all sorts of neat stuff but you basically just blew 2 months of devtime on a incomplete trade bot.

No white paper or planned features at all.......

this coin will be delisted from bittrex within 30 days and will NEVER get on cryptsy

Maybe you didn't read it clearly, I wrote ( waiting for cryptsy support to reply). Cryptsy support is slacking, and have not gotten back yet. Please read everything before you post.
 
There is a bot called Nanobot for Crypto-Trade, If you trade at crypto-trade there is no restrictions you can trade with any currency and don't need PXI in your wallet . Here's the link http://prime-xi.com/nanobot.html.

If companies post there planned features other companies would build it too, that is why FORD GM APPLE AMD NVIDIA etc... hide there products before and after they have completed it until its time to release it. Its not smart to post planned features, especially with release dates before they even started the project. It's a common thing on Bitcointalk to post planned features but it's really just to lie and keep people on there toes, trading and mining there coin till those dates pass with no product. Its also good for coin hoppers, they need to see what coin they can pump n dump. Other coin devs want ideas that would be handing them the package, If they have more time and more devs it would be done before you can start it.
 

I love these devs who release coins with no features and just make empty promises.
You are the scum of cryptoland, cryptsy is not going to touch this coin because it offers nothing, has almost no community and cannot keep a network diff level over 1 for more than 20 mins.
i can fork this coin right now with a $20 rental.

you are hopelessly delusional, all you have is a half working tradebot and a basically dead coin

When you actually develop a product i may retract my remarks
