Topic: [ANN] CureCoin 2.0 is live - Mandatory Update is available now - DEC 2018 - page 206. (Read 696267 times)

Did you update you bios of the card and the 14.4 suite catalist driver? and did you let the folding run for more than 3 hours to even out ppd?

Here's the log if anyone has any advice.  Even with the CPU folding it says 3 cores, which means one should be available for the GPU.

AMD driver version is 13.250.18.0.  Should I be using newer/older?

Join the IRC and I will try to help out http://webchat.freenode.net/

Room is #CureCoin

Make sure to leave one CPU core for the GPU. Can you post the first lines of your log file with system info and config ? Also what driver versions is important. But i can't help with AMD, I'm a NV guy.

Just a single card.  I tried pausing the CPU and the PPD dropped drastically.  It's now well below 2000.  I followed the setup instruction exactly and verified that it says FahCore 0x17 so I'm not sure what's wrong?   

Do you mean 300,000 ppd? Come put your numbers where your mouth is... What's your username? I'll show you mine...

Mine's right here: http://folding.extremeoverclocking.com/user_summary.php?s=&u=650016

I did 3.1m ppd on 5/12 and here is my credit:
TX #      Date                     TX Type      Block #   Amount
18977   2014-05-12 23:00:03   Credit_M      241       555.70346199

If you got 1.5m ppd based on 5 rigs doing 300k ppd, then you should have gotten 275 coins a day on 5/12.

Based on my numbers, 1btc got me 18 days mining with my 3m ppd.

My 3m ppd would equal 30 280x, which can mine way more than 1btc in 18 days. So for me, that 1btc (especially worth 3x) wasn't worth it but I chose to do it because I support the project.



As for whining about the donators, it was an open donation call. Why didn't you donate? I've seen you in all other coin forums harassing the shit out of altcoins, I don't think you're the person who would have trusted this project with a bitcoin going at $1250 USD back in Nov 2013. I could be wrong, but somehow I doubt that.

Without the donations, the project wouldn't have gotten off the ground. I'm one of the donators. You can find the original post right here on these forums and look at the other donators if you wish. Nothing was hidden.

They are working on different jobs, The PPD is what you want to focus on. Your 270x should be getting 70-80k. If you are running multiple cards you may nee to pause your CPU.

Try pausing the cpu slot

With a 270x I'm getting very poor performance.  gpu:0:Hawaii [Radeon R9 200 series].  In the work queue the ETA on the gpu is 10 days while my cpu is about 2 and a half hours.  Any suggestions?  Is my card just not powerful enough for this type of work?

Thanks for quick response. Feels better with some credits to Stanford and F@H.

(You can remove my comment I posted in the article, waiting for moderation, or keep it and just remove a typo  )

Interesting, this should be mentioned in the OP imo, as there are entire coins out there (Vert) based entirely on being scrypt-ASIC resistant, and here we have a coin where scrypt-ASIC resistance (or should I say immunity) is just one of it's amazing features.

Yes, I too would appreciate if people could vet this mac osx wallet.

Done.
Great job!

Scrypt ASICs will never work for Folding. I don't know how folding works exactly, so I'm not sure it's possible to create an ASIC for folding. It might be though, it sounds like the work is repetitive, but I'm neither a folding developer or ASIC developer so I can't say anything about folding ASICs.

That's an interesting point, so scrypt asics wont work for folding?  That's GPU only for 'ever'? 

Hhhhm, Big Mac ...but I also like Chicken MacNuggets

Ah, you mean the other Mac .., yes. Big fan of Apple and all their toys. But for folding and coins I will be on virtual Linux , sorry.

Just a small heads up. I would not insta-sell your coins haha. you think they are hard to get now? just give it 6 months to a year. with asic scrypt on the way to the other coins. most gpus will turn to this. making curecoin even more scarce. and if you sell for cheaper than 1cc=.1btc  i would be willing to guarantee you will be disappointed in time to come. But hey I have only been minning coins since btc first came out. what to I know about coins

FifthGhostbuster


P.S. this is not me manipulating price in anyway shape or form. just giving people a heads up before they insta-sell for a quick $100 and be angry later they missed out on more.

Great, nice to meet you  

Agree, overclock.net is a bit more casual. But I think it is worth to mention that the basic algorithm for folding comes from Stanford, Pande Group and the F@H project and working since years on a volunteering base.
More on their homepage folding.stanford.edu
Your article sounded to me more like that Curecoin is doing the folding and research. Which is not correct. That's still under control and governance of Stanford.

CureCoin seems to do a great job to motivate people to join the cause.


PS: I'm neither member of Stanford nor CureCoin team, just a regular donor interested in folding and a noob in term of coins and mining.

Thanks, it was in my junk.

I just got this in my inbox , a user has submitted a mac wallet, I have not tested or done a virus scan on it!!! If someone could please send this file through the ringer for virus testing then I think MAC users will be grateful.


@ChristianVirtual you are a big mac fan right?
