Last CPU coin that I mined on release was Animecoin and it was no longer solo mineable within about 8 minutes.

Where's the announced mining guide that was promised before the launch?

WTS 5000k MAX for 0.05 BTC

I'd sell you my mom for 5K doge.

Take it, or leave it. Fuck nugget.

This is one of the more clever scams I've seen.

Here's how I suspect it went down:

1.  Max (who pushed QRK -- you guys saw how that turned out, right?) paid some guy to build a Keccak GPU miner implementation (it's not hard, source code is available freely [1])
2.  He then uses his fame + name to peddle a new coin using the Keccak algorithm, which no other coin uses
3.  Sheep go baaaaah. Much profit.

Yeh, remind to build a CUDA version, my GPU doesn't like opencl

The source I linked to actually is a CUDA implementation of Keccak Smiley  Quite ironic...

It won't immediately be botnet'd, maybe in a few hours, but until then everyone has a chance

i hope its cpu only at launch, gives us all a chance, if gpu mining is at launch then you  can be sure that within a few minutes there will be little chance of solo mining any blocks, huge farms will mine this

Lol, you think your laptop stands a chance against the botnets that are ready to rape this release? Dream on man. GPUs are the only savior for this coin.

I doubt with this much interest, solo mining would go far anyway.  Look to connect to a pool.
