Well, since the GPU arrived, here's a CPU freebie. :-)

NOTE - this code is only safe on 64 bit systems with 64 bit GMP.  The real way to do it is to grab the #defines from jh00's xptminer and re-use:

Code:
#if defined _WIN64 ||  __x86_64__
       uint32_t d;
       for(d = 0; d< bns[0]->_mp_size; d++) { /* Thanks, jh00 - xptMiner to the rescue */
         *(uint64_t*)(bdata+d*8) = bns[0]->_mp_d[d];
       }
#else
        mpz_export((void *)bdata, NULL, -1, 1, 0, 0, bns[0]);
#endif

Gets rid of all of that time wasted in mpz_export, as I alluded to earlier...


Win64 GMP uses 32bit legs because sizeof(long) == 4 on win64. Doh, MS.

That's what led to the launch bug in a way.

It was only the wind.
A half decent GPU miner has been created:
https://github.com/MiniblockchainProject/CudaMiner

There are several things to keep in mind 1) it is designed to work with 700 series nVidia cards but should work on 400 series cards if you change the make file 2) for now you will have to compile the GPU miner yourself for various reasons, we will try to post pre-compiled binaries when they become available.

See github project page for more information about usage and compiling.

Cool. However, doesn't seem to work on EC2 GPU instance (GRID K520). minerd gives error:

Code:
GPUassert: invalid device ordinal trashminer.cu 370

I guess it should be expected since it is supposed to work with 700 series of cards.



It'll work on AWS; you just need to play with it a little.

Thanks for playing.  I don't see an address in your signature boy.
YOU CAN CHECK AGAIN  Cheesy

That address isn't a valid address.  It's too short or something.

Has anyone compiled this on windows yet that can provide the source?  I'm still trying to get it to compile, but keep hitting bumps in the road

Some test result on Cudaminer

The newest version may 100% GPU computing. The old version may <100% GPU computing.

The newest version use <10% CPU, the old version use 100%CPU.

The old version 15%  faster than the new version.

So may be the old version combined CPU and GPU, may be better.

Whast hashrates are you getting?

why don't reduce the number of coin ?

Doesn't matter where you put the limit as long as it is fixed.

why did the bottom fall out on the price???

More supply than demand is always the only objectively correct answer.

But my opinion is that it was grossly overvalued for a coin that was only a few days old with major "growing pains" and I said so a few days ago.

There is also an overhang of one guy with over 500k coins mined from the beginning at very low cost (and whatever other ninja miners we don't know about)

I still think it is somewhat overvalued, but not too bad at this point. I'd be a buyer at 1500 given no further developments.



Do you think it goes back up in the long run, given the high supply?

Sorry to say, the coin is great and all, but i think we will go below 1000 today.

Long term it can be a good investment.
