Please develop the team quickly modify the defects, mtp can not have too much flaws

Found & submitted another flaw in MTP: Argon2 segment sharing, described in http://blog.zorinaq.com/attacks-on-mtp/ along with my other submissions.

Wallet is extremely slow syncing, only got about 10 weeks after 18 hours... is there any bootstrap?

@mjosephs, I was in this land long enough and knew what's evil than your so called "shady", and even don't be hasty on your conclusion of the last part. Look at coinmarketcap list you'll get a list of coins you can play with your blaming games. Don't forget why people get into this land, for a better and nice world? I bet for profits.

I noticed that too.


MTP is not mature enough for prime time, and heavily favors GPUs over CPUs.

If they would have just owned up to these two realities I would have been satisfied.

But instead they got duped by some sales frontman for a fifty cent party who promised them that spin-doctoring and beauty pageants were cheaper than realistic timelines and cautious incentive structures.  And that his swarm of 20-post accounts would stand ready to flood this thread with trivial Q&A whenever uncomfortable issues came up.

I thought the point of MTP is to make CPU miners competitive with GPUs. So a bunch of private GPU miners shouldn't be a problem. Assuming of course that the daemon-internal CPU miner works as expected (or regular CPU miners are available).

mjosephs, you seem hell-bent on being the great detective that finds all the shady doings of these evil, evil developers... except, quote zcoinofficial: "Because of these changes we will extend the bounty competitions."
And extended bounty deadlines, along with all the talk about brand-new research etc, probably means MTP won't really be launching that soon (also because when you look at github, the only changes that have been recently been pushed to master are sync improvements)
So... hold your horses.

@Bannedseller: It's not a friggin Zcash fork.

I can guarantee you that pencil-and-paper mining will work.  It's also irrelevant.

The situation to worry about is not "there are zero people GPU mining".  That won't happen.

MTP still on track for block 47,500 in a couple days or so?

Low supply and great tech.

Lots of good info in this video as well:

So wow, many potentials.

Could you share the link?

Hi Dev, Moderator,
How this coin compare to other Zcash Forks. for example how does it compare to ZION or Zclassic. Is it only CPU or is it possible to use GPU?

I'm also a bit worried about miner availability upon algo change. However, I expect the internal CPU miner of the daemon to work. After all, it will have the correct algo for verifying blocks. In fact, that might make things interesting again, just like the old times of Bitcoin in 2009-2010 before external miners.

Any status when the Znodes will be active. I planned to set up some for it 

@JasonSW, curious, why you're shilling in support of this shady behavior instead of calling it out?

This whole situation is ridiculously shady.


After the PoW change? Seriously?

It's creating a "second instamine" where the PoW rules are changed in secret, the secret is revealed like a few hours before the PoW-change block, and as a result the only people who can develop miners that actually work on launch day are the insiders.

(And no, I still don't care about your stupid beauty pageant, stop using that as a distraction.)

I finally got it working after contacting the dev, gave me a link to an old version which is probably slower  . I'm getting 31 Kh/s with an R9 280x, does that sound right?

I didn't take it as negative. I was actually laughing at the irony of the situation when I saw your post

Not negative. I was just teasing hidetoshi, hence the smiley

I have the same trouble and aio-runtimes do nothing. I tried with normal sgminer but it always starts with ckolive kernel istead of lyra2z
