Thanks for the exe, looks like all the shares the miner submits are rejects.

can anyone provide a compiled exe for windows?

Just to let everyone know we're up to 3000DRK for the GPU bounty to try and get phm to release his source code. It would be helpful if other people could donate also to even the playing field again :

Thanks for your support!

ps, this bounty is extended to anyone who can get a GPU miner up and running with a reasonable amount of efficiency .

Here's my partially working GPU miner: https://github.com/evan82/darkcoin-sgminer



I'll post up a compiled version of his sg miner for you, I've been working on this for two days now and managed to tweak it out to much higher hashing speed but the shares are all rejects (above target) - if anybody know's a fix for this we'll be able to get a few mhash out of our gpus in the short term at least.

Will edit with link

I will post a more tweaked out version as I go, but alas.. Not worth it until it actually starts pumping out shares :p, I'm rebuilding from scratch

Do not donate to this guy.

All you've done is compiled eduffield's modified cgminer? And you're asking for donations?

I've just spent the last couple of hours working on a kernel, and when I read your post I thought "oh, someone's already done it", but you've compiled someone else's work and asked for donations. Poor form.

Oooooo someone's in trouble!  Cheesy

I'm not asking for donations for compiling his work, I'm asking for donations with the promise that I'm putting in a full time effort to get my updated version running. But, I'll take down the wallet if it's that horrific to you.

No, you clearly stated that you'd spent two days working on it, implying that you've made a lot of changes... which you haven't. It took you two days to compile eduffield's cgminer?

It doesn't work Sad

We'll make it work  Grin

@JL777, I can't comment for certain. I pushed it up to speeds exponentially higher than you would get on a CPU but it's not properly running on X11 at this point, so I don't now what it will look like then. But yes, realistically GPUs will be able to bury CPU mining.

What type of speedup did you get? Is it more cost effective than CPU based on electricity used?

Is it correct that mentioned at the repo readme hundreds and even thousands of MEGAhashes are real values?

Added Darkcoin to coinz.co.vu

Darkcoin Difficulty Chart

also comes with a volume chart (transaction count minus generation transactions)

Very nice, I added a link to the home page on darkcoin.io.

Holy fuck that is awesome. Especially seeing the transaction to kimoto gravity well. Thanks for that.

Thanks Smiley

Still tweaking things, more coins and charts coming.

Ok, thank you...
What should I buy to have a higher hashrate?
Right now I'm using on old laptop with a Intel I3...

Look into the Microsoft azure free trial.  Look up some tutorials, there are many.  It'll last about 4 days.  Good luck!

A coin creator can, at most, make the life difficult for a gpu chip, asic-designer or quantum-computer designer by selecting (during the coin creation) hashes which are hard to speed up in the aforementioned hardware. But now we are past the coin creation stage, so...

There may be some tiny specific function, that is difficult to calculate on GPU but is not a problem for CPU.

Surely developers know better what they are doing.

I've thought about this extensively in the past and I only thing I could think of was maybe to use the CPU extensions. If you look them up (https://www.google.com/#q=cpu+extensions) there's a bunch to choose from SSE4, Movie encoding/decoding, etc. These happen on die so they'd be way faster on the CPU than calculated manually in the GPU.

However, then we're back to centralization due to super high end hardware. 

Thank you for input. I believe there is no such killing difference across different CPUs. Here is the comparison I googled quckly: http://www.roylongbottom.org.uk/cpuspeed.htm#anchorPara06
Not sure that it's what we look for, but seems like the difference is at most 2-3 times which is reasonable.

This at least may give a chance for CPU mining.

Most cost effective would be to rent a few amazon instances. I don't think it makes sense to buy a cpu to mine on. GPU mining will be here soon and cpu cost to hashrate is just too high unless you can use them for other purposes.

And do you think I could find a block if I solo mine?
How lucky do I have to be to find one?

Doubt you would.

I have a similar machine in a pool that hasn't found a block since Feb 1st (and I think difficulty was 1 at the time)
