I´ve got a picture! Haha!
I know that it may be shot in the foot for me, but what is good for community is good for me:) So don´t miss the new v4 miner on 1GH, which is pushing another 20% out of my 280xses w same settings. And don´t forget to set -v to < 150

i also would recommend to set the vote -v of your miners to something between 1 - 512 150

Large buys in big swoops, not a lot of small sells, basically lots of people holding coins... Upward pressure, people buying in at .000050 in big orders, it's doing nothing but moving up.  Little dips yes, but the fact that you can mine this coin like LTC and run at super cool temps, and the fact that LTC now has ASICs, and temps are so hot, moving into summer.... This is very exciting.  Finally a coin with so much promise.  I feel like we have another LTC in the making, but better!


Totally agree, though mining profitability is really crap for this coin. You only get ~1/2 the btc value even compared shitty LTC. Thats why I didnt even bother mining and just bought myself 100 000HVC and now holding like a boss.



remember this.. in 2 Months HVC will be traded at 0.001

2 months? It gained 10% in the past 10 minutes and WAY more if you count the whale who bought to 0.0005...




Lol, there are no whales here yet. That buy was only worth a few bitcoins. Thats the thing - There are not that many coins out there and if you want to buy even a few btc worth of HVC you have to take down half the orderbook Grin People dont seem to realise that it is being sold dirt cheap now. There are only 128M COINS not 1000 0000 0000 0000 0000 00000 0000 0000 + coins.

so what are your expectation then? it sounds like your expecting HVC to be worth 100$ each coin


No, I am obviously not expecting 100$ in the forseeable future. But Given that this coin has roughly the same amount of coins as LTC in circulation I belive it could very well be worth 1$ at some point. So thats 50x the current value.
I obviously also understand that the value of a coin is not just determined by the amount of coins in circulation  Wink But this coin is one of the few that actually brings some innovation to the table and has competent developers.
Also the low energy use means that it can become popular among miners who are the cornerstone of a coins community. And large/strong communities are what make coins succeed or fail   Wink

I´m not trying to spam the wall but for those who didn´t read this:

Hi all!
 I would like you to spend just 1 minute and send Bter.com a request for adding HVC to their exchange. This would increase the exposure of Heavycoin and help us all

Here´s the link

Like I said they are (Application Specific Integrated Circuit). Point being that every chip has a specific application.. I get the difference between that and a general purpose processor.. I was just trying to clarify for people that ASICs are just computer chips, and explaining that every chip has a specific purpose. My point was exactly what you said, there is nothing special about them to the crypto-currency world....

Except the high cost to develop them!

Would not be worth while doing for HVC.

Agreed!

Wrong, not every chip has a specific application.  There are reasons why they are different and you don't seem to understand that.  You are only confusing people by miss using terms that have specific meaning in the computer engineering world.  Done.

LOL, whatever man, semantics. I wasn't saying a CPU/GPU and ASICs are the same thing, I was simply trying to draw a comparison for people who have no idea about this stuff. I'm saying they are both similar in that they are silicon chips with a purpose.. Just trying to explain to anyone who doesn't know what an "ASIC miner" is. Its simply a chip/processor (whatever you wanna call it) with SHA-256 (or scrypt or whatever) instructions burned into it. An x86 CPU or something (much more complex obviously) has x86 instructions burned into it, ect.  

Thanks for clarifying my lame comparison...

agreed, GPU core is just a ASIC chip, just specialize it into a HVC mining chip...
that cost too much

No, a GPU is not an ASIC.  If it was it couldn't mine sha256, heavy1, and scrypt, etc...


Every computer chip is an "ASIC"... (Application Specific Integrated Circuit). Now what the application is, is what matters... A GPU is a multi-core "ASIC" (usually up to 1024 cores these days and growing) with the application of being able to calculate repetitive tasks very fast in parallel. This is what is required to render high res 3D games in real time ect.  

Wrong, ASIC serve a single purpose only. CPU's and GPU's are general purpose processors.

Go and read about what ASICS are.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Application-specific_integrated_circuit

There's nothing special about them BTW, your phone has several ASICs in it that serve a single purpose. They are cheap to produce but expensive to develop. And if you want to make them do something else you'll have to start from scratch again and design a new ASIC.

Is there a gpu miner for older graphics cards yet?
maybe the new one from 1Ghs (25/3/2014)

Holding my HVC like a boss!

Please, please allow me quote your sentence in our pool...

That would be amazing haha.. lets spread the word.. if massiveman allows it

Come on, I DONT care if massiveman allows me to, it's done already

He have to be famous for what he say Grin

Yes, you are right
while what I was trying to say is we could make such complex GPU core, we surely can  make a HVC mining ASIC, just the cost matters Grin
