I've compiled custom build(windows 64bit) from jh00 xptminer and dga ric core with gmp 6.0.0(not mpir) and avx-i support (Ivy Bridge processors only).
It's about 5-10% faster than latest dga sse4-b14 build for me.
Build include 2.25% devfee (1.5% dga, 0.25% jh00, 0.25% clintar, 0.25% cphr). Devfee can be disabled with -d 0 param.

Build supports -s parameter as in dga build.

I guess my discomfort is just from bitcoin being soo low lately. I hope the fed returns the 200k BTC to investors to create more liquidity within the market once again.
But how long will be..a LONG time..maybe 1 year before BTC of 200k hit the market.

There will be a delay in the release of the Riecoin Foundation. We have experiencing technical difficulties with verifying multi-sig in qt wallet. The site will be uploaded tomorrow.

Primecoin GPU miner released.

As long as Gatra doesn't abandon this project though, Riecoin will definitely rise to the top.
I wouldn't abandon my precious!
and even if I did others could continue it, don't despair.
we are all expecting it to rise after stratum pools start to generate blocks and the Riecoin Foundation takes over PR. I think it wouldn't be wise to launch a full blown advertising operation until the network is healthy with many pools, but that's just a few days away.
Thanks for the confidence boost Gatra! The foundation is confirming whether the address is working like it should right now. Should be ready momentarily.
Thanks northranger too for all your work keeping it all together!

The foundation launches today and steady, heavy PR starts soon as we push this out to the masses!

How are other pools doing right now?
upcpu found 4 blocks last 120 blocks.infinitypool yet to find a block...
Any reasons for this?
The only publicly available pool server uses the stratum protocol but none of the fast mining clients support stratum. Once that changes we should see a more even distribution between pools.

these riecoin prices, with bitcoin prices are really making me just sell out on these coins before it goes any lower=[
fear is being instilled upon me!!

Yea..it sucks.. But all coins right now is dropping..Look on coinmarketcap.com. Bitcoin is unfortunately the crypto leader right now so all coins follow Bitcoin's price.

Riecoin Foundation launches tonight. Hopefully Gatra can concentrate more on developing and less on funds and marketing.
March 30, 2014, 10:20:14 PM
Never mind. They just reconnected.

Remember to donate when Riecoin Foundation comes out to support Riecoin!

God THe deficullty is going crazy
Max difficulty achieved thus far is 1712:
http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~dga/crypto/ric/diff_offset_2014_03_27.png
Which is also the current diff. I'll get this graph automated over the weekend for at least daily updates so I can stop squawking about it, or commit the tools to generate it into the fastrie github so that someone else can do it easily.
An automated graph would be fantastic!
Well, it's not automated (yet), but I've checked in the plot generation scripts into the fastrie tree so that anyone can generate their own. Warning: They're a silly quick hack! Someone should rewrite them. I'd love to put an improved version in there...

Thanks dga!

Sorry - I'm clueless about MPIR.
And btw it works fine when using MPIR, the problem occurs only when GMP is enabled.
Hi, dga, could you show me how to compile your code under mingw?I tried to compile your source under mingw-w64, and got the following error: "collect2.exe: error: ld returned 116 exit status", and sadly I cannot find out what's happening:(
Thanks a lot.
Thanks a lot.
Hi, all - I've posted b14 source and binaries for the fastrie xptMiner:
- Binaries: http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~dga/crypto/ric/
- Source: https://github.com/dave-andersen/fastrie
- ChangeLog: https://github.com/dave-andersen/fastrie/blob/master/ChangeLog
- README: http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~dga/crypto/ric/readme.html
This is a speed-boost release targeting larger sieves, and the binaries are now
linked against gmp 6.0.0a, which provides faster code targeting avx and avx2
in particular. Sandy Bridge, Ivy Bridge, and Haswell machines should see a very
reasonable 5-15% speedup.
The larger sieve support comes from borrowing a trick from a00k's miner,
which reduces memory consumption with sieves > 500m and slightly improves
speed.
Older, slower machines will probably not get much of a boost from this release,
but newer, faster boxes may benefit from a larger sieve - I'm seeing 10-20% speedups
on i7-4770 (Haswell) CPUs.
Thanks to the folks on ypool for kicking the tires on this. As always, there
are likely to be bugs, but hopefully not too many.
Please do read the
README before worrying about some of them, and before tweaking
the sieve size too much.

Low activity on this thread right now. :O

Was just wondering, how powerful a computer/cpu is needed to at least be able to mine a block? I'm currently on ypool with Dave's optimized miner and my workers never find any at all.
I'm running an i5 4570 4 core with 8GB RAM on Ypool.
Found 2 blocks since start of riecoin for the pool.
142 coins as my share so far.
