so if current snowfield is snowfield.11, for example, i should have 2TB SSD and even larger ?

For snowfield 11, yes, 2TB, or 2x1TB or 4x512GB in one system. Field 11 is far away right now, current one is 7.
Hashrate has to quadruple for each new field, that is 256 times the current hashrate.

is it joke ? there is no about 128GB GPU memory in guide
i tried that on CPU, miner was working fine, but with 0 hashrate and no warnings that i don't have GPU

Like I said, its not GPU mineable, the reason is its memory requirement. You need a fast (NVME)-SSD to mine this.

So is this coin GPU minable? I couldn't find anything explaining the mining aspect of the project.

Could someone link me to this?

Thanks

No, its not. You´d need a GPU with 128GB memory, which does not exist. In the future it will require even more.

Check out the quickstart guide:

Unironically getting early day Bitcoin vibes from this.

Judging by the order-book now, I'd say others agree.

Can't wait to watch it unfold.

@eltigre this is the quant coin I mentioned.

Still mining the llama snowfield! There's a great community on Discord and Slack for questions. AWS is a little cheaper than GCP. Fire up your instance soon so you can still mine in RAM, gets harder with next snowfield.

What is GCP?

which are current fields ? node says 7, i download them, but no shares about 2 days in pool miner

[2018-07-04 09:50:11] INFO snowblossom.miner.PoolMiner printStats Shares: 0 (rejected 0) (blocks 0)

Whats your hashrate?

I suggest joining discord or slack for assistance.

Nice to see another coin with quantum resistance and I might be wrong but it looks like it was built from scratch and it's not a clone, is it GPU resistant also?

Can't download these torrents: https://snowblossom.org/snowfields/snowblossom.3.torrent

Using uTorrent 1.8.2 and get error message: "Invalid torrent file".

# name size hash torrent
11 avanc 2T a2a4076f6cde947935db06e5fc5bbd14 snowblossom.11

This file size is 2 terabytes? Huh

You don't need snowblossom-3 anymore, you need .6 now and .7 soon. And yes, the .11 is 2TB, every snowfield is twice the size of the previous one. This is the GPU/ASIC poison-pill: even if someone builds a miner for 128GB files, it will have a hard time once the 256GB snowfield is activated and most likely will be useless at 512GB and higher.

As far as I understand snowblossom, it uses those huge files via memory mapped IO if available on the OS, so it can do random-access operations on 4K blocks in those snowfields as input to its PoW. A general-purpose CPU with a lot of RAM and many threads would have a much higher throughput and therefore lower latency compared to an usual ASIC.

Miners have to download such huge files?
This project looks like HDD mining )))
Unfortunately, I don't even have 128G for snowblossom.7...
