I am biased of course...but you should take a good look at LUX 
It has a relatively low marketcap and has very strong fundamentals

- PHI2 - ASIC/FPGA resistant algorithm
- LUXgate - for crosschain swaps, DEX, etc.
- Commercial applications
- POS enabled Webwallet
- And much more

Re: 8th Alt coin thread. Or what to do now that asics are all over the place.
Just as an FYI, LUX has just pre-released our new PHI2 protocol that greatly improves on the original version
PHI2 has been designed to be FPGA and ASIC resitant...and also includes a 30-60% power reduction, and lower temps.
Full release won't happen until we do a planned fork and introduce Segwit, Smart Contracts, POW/POS/MN reward changes and a few other things
Full details on our discord if anyone wants to check it out - https://discord.gg/Drbfbtz
Plenty more to come from the LUXcore team as well

Keccak (Smartcash, Maxcoin): 136GH/s (17GH/s per card x eight) ($160/day at Apr-30 prices)
Tribus (Denarius, Virtus): 16.8GH/s (2.1GH/s per card x eight) ($304/day at Apr-30 prices)
Phi1612 (Luxcoin, Folm): 5.2GH/s (650MH/s per card x eight) ($456/day at Apr-30 prices)
Skunhash (Various coins): 10.4GH/s (1.3GH/s per card x eight) ($261/day at Apr-30 prices)
Those yield around US$20-$57 per card per day ($160-$456 per day for the rig).
This is a mutually-assured-destruction arms race.
I calculated for Phi, if there are 5000 such cards online, the per day return will be $12 per card and not $57. (The GPUs will make pennies, meanwhile.). That will be an year to get back cost at $4000.
And 5000 is conservative number I think, for one Algo.
Edit: And the irony of this -> Only ASICs will survive.
ASIC's are only really going to survive on coins that aren't building resistance into their algo's.
Then we have a the FPGA's and GPU's battling it out on all the rest
just think about it, it's not that crazy as may sound like at first glance
one of this is just 30 gpu 1070, at the cost of 10 o f them(you can find a 1070 for 330 or lower now so it's up to 12 of them), so it's 3:1 at best, but the new nvidia gpu will be 100% faster than a single 1070
this mean that this vs the 1170 will be only 1.5:1, 50% faster or lower...nothing special

That Nvidia will release a GPU that is 100% faster than 1070 for 330 USD (which is you price in the comparison) is quite unrealistic
This generation we had quite a boost, yet the 1060 is only about 12% faster than a 970 as an example.
And dont forget the difference in power consumption! I would love a single FPGA instead of a 1080 ti rig, but have to see that it works first. Lead time in Norway is 12 weeks though
will be 500 at launch( so 15 1170 vs this board will be $4000 vs $7500)as usual and 700 for the 1180 which is arguably as a fast as this fpga board for the same cost and same consumption with some tweaking
a 1170 will consume 100 watt, tdp of a 1180 which is a strongest card is the same as 1070ti which consume only 100, so a 1170 will consume less probably at lower tdp
You are dreaming if you think the new 1180 will be as fast as this card.
The 1180 will be an incremental improvement over the outgoing 1080, and even if it was faster than a Titan it will still be far slower.
Depending on the algorithm, we're talking about an FPGA that looks like it can be equivalent to 10+ Titan's!
There are plenty of coin teams already joining together to work on ASIC resistance.
Having Tpruvot as part of the LUX team, is a step towards having the edge in cryptography compared to ASIC devs

The LUX and Tokensuite teams have been really REALLY busy recently, and we want to apologize for the delay.
Please stand by, and we will get the payouts sorted out this week

Re: CoiniumServ - open source & high performance pooled mining server software
Got this compiled, running with litecoin (some issues still ironing out). But for the life of me I cannot figure out how to make it do multiple pools. I'm running a windows server so don't make suggestions for another pool unless it will run on windows server.
You can always run Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) and then install whatever you like

Sure, I could use remote control, but I've found that screen sharing apps eat a little bit of hashing power when you're connected.

I was surprised at how much of a hit to hashrate teamviewer causes, even on a Ryzen 5 1600, and a KVM switch isn't a good choice for me at the moment because the Onda 6-GPU boards have a VGA port while everything else I have shanghaied into mining uses DVI/HDMI/DP (though I guess I could get a bunch of DVI to VGA converter plugs).
If you use CPU's that have built in GPU, and set that as primary, Teamviewer will not make any impact at all on mining.
Thanks for all the information, figured enough lurking and perhaps time to post something. I have to get with the program, Im still mining GBX with my 7x1080ti using hsr neo...
Going to look into this LUX coin see where that takes me.
Thanks again gents will follow along

Re: At today's prices it would take 10 months to pay back 1 1080ti before you made $
So even at today ridiculous prices your return on capital is no where near that bad if you can sustain $10/day
Where are you getting 10 months from?
- $699 RRP would be ~70 days
$1000 infalted price would be ~100 days
$1500 gouge would be ~150 days
Where are you getting 10 months from?
You are doing it wrong, those 70 days mean 700 days. You trolls never get it right.
Huh??

Re: At today's prices it would take 10 months to pay back 1 1080ti before you made $
How can a miner get mining in 2018? Prices are just to high
It would take 10 months just to make your money back. And then you start to see profit
My 1 1070 can only pull in maybe $5 a day it would take me 7-8 months before I paid it back and made money...
Smart investment? How are people paying these prices?

If you are making less than $10 a day with a 1080ti you're doing it wrong!
And $10 are my bad days, with $20 being average and hitting $40+ on the really good stretches.
Mining shit off the first page of WTM, or using nicehash is lazy!

I downloaded the wallet when this coin first launched and planned on mining it. Something didn't sit right with me and I just ignored it. Boy am I glad I did. It would surprise me if this coin actually turns out to be legit.
You definitely would of been surprised if you mined/bought some coins back in October/November and then checked the price recently
Either the Devs are too clueless to see how bad this all looks or they just dont care... Either way it's bad... Doesn't look as bad as some of the scams I've seen on here so maybe it's legit.
Trying to sell it to the guy calling it out as a scam is pretty funny. Good stuff there.

I'm not trying to sell anyone anything.
If you like our project, jump on board. If you don't there are plenty of other coins out there that might fit your needs better.
Funny that since the first topic was posted, LUX has become stronger and stronger, and has taken off
COuldn't agree more. Holy shitcoin.
HodlerBaggins...Can you please stop the fud whenever LUX is mentioned in a thread.
We know you probably missed out on getting a masternode early on, or you were kicked from TG/discord, but you don't need to run around trying to convince everyone that we aren't a hard working team with great tech and a real shot and building something BIG!
If you're just looking for your comments to create a dip and an entry point, then jump in now, because almost all coins are down today
I never said your team isn't hard working. I said the red flags are huge.
Getting a masternode early on was basically impossible as a miner. Your block reward is tiny and masternode takes 16,000. I guess it's easy when you premine the shit out of it, eh?
Nothing significant differentiates this coin from all the other Dash masternode clones.
It looks like your devs are in fact working really hard to run away with some nice profits after you are able to pump it.
I'm not spreading FUD, I'm calling out what I see after looking into it. I just happened to find this thread after I posted elsewhere... looks like I'm not the only one.
The intention has NEVER been that a miner with a few cards/rigs could get enough coins for a masternode!
It has and always will be that you need to be a serious investor who is willing to invest and will dedicate resources to keeping a masternode running 24/7 x 365.
Simple as that!
You've obviously made up your mind, and clearly have an axe to grind for some reason.
We'll keep working hard on new features and doing the best we can to hit all of our milestones.
Following me around trying to deflect what I'm saying without disputing it isn't making this look less scammy.
It's clear that that actually making it decentralized was never the intention. It frankly looks like the intention is to dump the massive premine...
Why would a big time investor invest a lot in this coin? other than to try to profit and dump the bag on somebody else? That would be stupid risky with your massive premine since you could dump 65% of the circulating coins tomorrow and leave them holding the bag.
Good luck to you and your team - I hope you prove me wrong.
I'm not trying to deflect...I'm just annoyed that we have a team that's working really hard to build something great, and you're trying to talk shit about us all over the place.
Not wanting to invest in us because you don't like the math/premine is one thing, but actively calling us a "Holy shitcoin" pisses me off and I felt the need to defend our team.
I'm done, good luck with whatever floats your boat
I will gladly stay away from it. The logo is still stolen btw. Yeah, stolen, not 'inspired by'. Just a copy.
If you actually bothered to keep updated you would know the logo has been changed
