I have been mining Guncoin with an ASIC since day 1 non stop. If you switched the algo I wouldn’t be able to mine, which I would hate to see happen. I say this because I really want to support Guncoin.

I don't see how you asic mining helps you support guncoin. Mentioning guncoin to fellow gun users is supporting guncoin.

What I read in what you posted is "don't change, because I still want to mine guncoin for profit".

Don't think I'm singling you out, I've said pretty much the same thing earlier in this thread (to the old dev) trying to promote a change so my GPU's wouldn't have to compete against asics. That didn't happen, so I ended up adapting and bought asic to mine the coin. If the asics go away and you still want to mine, spend a few bucks and buy that you need.

If you want to get a head start, you can pick one of the neoscrypt coins and learn how to mine it, and get the hardware to do it well, so that when the swap is made you will be ready.

Why would you not be able to mine ? You have a processor in your computer i assume ?
You will be able to support guncoin just fine

When the algo gets switched, difficulty is reset for the new algo. It's possible that you will mine more gun than with your asic.

I'll sell you my GUN for half a dollar each. Then you can go ahead and sell it for a dollar in 6 weeks. Anyone? hehe.

Gosh would hate for you to loose that kind of money - I think most would like to see you wait and cash in with everyone else. LOL. FYI, we have talked with the Phoenixcoin developer who implemented Neoscrypt in that coin. He seems to think he could do it again for Guncoin. That would put Guncoin way above the radar and also protect it from the super ASICs coming out now. While it all looks good and Phoenixcoin appears to be running fine, our mining efforts and pools would temporarily suffer. It appears the proven mining software has not quite caught up with this new algorithm. Solo mining appears to be fine with it. GPU mining software is still in beta test this week and should be released shortly. While this looks like an attractive move forward for GUN and it is great to be a coin on the leading edge of things, I do not want to be on the bleeding edge of things if there are still minor bugs to be worked out. Will keep you updated as we move forward with this path - feedback is always welcome.....

When you get a wallet together for the Neoscrypt, I'll help alpha/beta test it.

I know this thread is about a crypto coin, but I need to derail it for a second.

People I know got the ATF to approve the manufacture of a post-86 transferable machine gun recently. We may be able to get rid of the Hughes amendment and possibly reopen the MG registry as a result.

end derail.

Anything is possible in an election year I guess - thanks for the update, but like you said, would prefer not to dwell on it with more discussion. Feel free to post a link to a discussion thread elsewhere.

When this coin will reach $1 per coin?

I heard inside rumors, it's gonna be about 6 weeks. Cool

I'll give you all the support i can, batch files and configs and eventual local p2pool support.

Excellent - thanks!

I'm mining phoenixcoin with a cpu miner.
https://github.com/ghostlander/cpuminer-neoscrypt

This is the code we are messing with for the gpu miner

https://github.com/cqtenq/cgminer
https://github.com/cqtenq/sgminer
https://github.com/ghostlander/NeoScrypt

I would mine with a cpuminer, no probs.
Gpu mining is only about two times faster now for neoscrypt

I'll have no problem pointing my scrypt asic's somewhere else.

OK, thanks for putting all that good info in one post for us. So if and when we go this route, hopefully, you can post command line options and batch files for us to use. I saw somewhere there was a Neoscypt pool running. I have sent an email to one of our pools to give them a heads start in researching how to do it if we go that direction soon.

Having talked to several programmers familiar with Neoscrypt and reading the forums, it is my understanding that as this point in time, if we made the switch all ASIC and GPU mining would come to a halt. The only proven mining software supports CPU mining only. There a beta GPU miner that should be available soon. So my question to the community here is if I move to upgrade the coin algo and protect GUN long term, will you start CPU mining to keep the blockchain moving until some more mining software is available for GPUs? The ASICs would then become useless for GUN use.

Currently mining Phoenixcoin with neoscrypt.
Their fork went fine and they have a pool up
http://pxc.theblocksfactory.com/
I'm currently cpu mining but the gpu miners are almost ready
This is the dev tread to follow
https://forum.feathercoin.com/index.php?/topic/6626-changing-the-hashing-algorithm/
they have p2pool and gpu mining working on testnet

what is link to the mining SW you are doing this with - a version of CPU miner I assume???

The range I go to is pretty aggressive on growth. A lot of young members with tactical rifles, lots of police, even lawyers as members, and working on improving the range, and growing it both in members and finances. They are looking into selling the cleaned brass, and possible reloading. Getting guncoin known there, with some convincing they may start accepting it for purchases.

We're not from a poor area, so some members are members of other clubs, word will spread.

OK, got it. Well, the 3" patches are easy enough, all I have to do it call her back and give a CC number and they are on the way. The stickers are a good idea for cars and ammo cans, I can look into those also. If people could give me an idea how many patches and stickers they want, we could start a list and run it for a few days and then order them.....
