Who cares?
As far as I understand, once GPU mining is active it will instantly kill CPU mining and the majority would leave. The result is that mining gets more centralized - again, those who own GPU farms would rule. I don't see any advantages for the coin itself in this scenario.

Whats wrong with that?

What're you guys currently mining on? I'm on a AMD FX 8-Core right now, but getting only around 180-200 KH/s.

Im using the same processor, getting around 350 khash, you might be using the older miner software.

I cant go through this whole thread. Is the innovation of anonymity coming along ok?

Whats the schedule for its implementation?

From what I gather from this thread is that there's been a successful 'proof of concept' and 'alpha' test and someone said the dev(s) are "very close to putting out a beta for the test network."  But that's just what I've been told by someone in the thread I have no idea how trustworthy they are.

How many Devs are working on this?  Is it just the 1?

Is it completely impossible to eliminate the possibility for GPU mining?

Yeah, GPU miners rape coins and dump them. Look at what is happening to UTC at the moment. I bought in with the hopes of a surge only to have miners dump the coin to hell.

Even with GPUs coming the gravity well will keep them from raping this coin.

Haha true. I just got a bit miffed remembering when Moby Dick breached the mining surface a few days back, forcing us to man the kimotot harpoons. That was quite a day.

Guess I'm going to have to buy a GPU, anybody know what the best card is for the money right now?  Can't afford an R9.

R9 270x are still worth it, just shop around and stay away from newegg.

I've got one 270x in my rig.  It hashes at around 470-480kh/s (scrypt).  24000 tc 1120 core 1500 memory i19

I add this to my suggestions along with my initial pitchdark. the chain suffix is very recognizable for cryptocurrencies whilst maintaining the darkcoin brand.

Nice... maybe we can also get a mascot-style cloaked guy emerging from the darkness or something... Cool
Could you make one set of ones and zeros start disappearing? Make it look like a normal set of ones and zeros becomes invisible.

Why don't you want to keep it CPU-only?

Its going to eventually going to happen, I would rather put it out there rather than have someone suddenly show up with one and not share.

And now, how about collecting a good hefty bounty for a working effective GPU miner? I'd put down up to 1000 DRK - not much but if many people donate it'll build up.

If more people are interested I could work on GPU miner for a bounty. I already have something more or less working (pools are accepting shares, also solo-mined one block this night with it), but it's still very slow (nearly 2 MH/s on Radeon R9 290). Unfortunately I can't promise it will get much faster, still working on possible optimizations.

FYI

I'll put up 1000DRK, but I want the code you have now, to prove that it is getting at least what you say.

I'll match his 1000DRK

Thats 3000DRK @ $0.35 thats ~$1000
