Topic: artforz and coblee gpu mining litecoin since the start? - page 20. (Read 32574 times)

Well he said it would be in v13, but it's free software and it's not like coblee is shelling up some coins to pay for it. Maybe ask artforz for the gpu miner he has been using for over 3 months.

Why wouldn't he release it? Without this miner released it's just a bs claim

We're currently "testing it"   .

mtrlt is on his own when it comes to releasing it publicly, v13 of Reaper also includes many other benefits many people have been waiting for (makes SC hash about 60% faster on CPU). He may never release it publicly, keep an eye on the SC forum or wiki, if it does get released it will be mentioned there first. Given how easy it is to actually do it if you're a good programmer I'm sure others will attempt it regardless.

It's funny some accusations here are flying about the claims. Despite the rumors we are very honest people who develop SolidCoin and I'm sure all the "facts" will be coming out soon. What is disappointing is the fact artforz and coblee have been misleading their users as to the viability of CPU mining on Litecoin.

I originally paid mtrlt in SolidCoins to get his SolidCoin GPU miner out to the public so everyone could mine on equal terms. I'm sure he would have done it eventually regardless because that's the sort of person he is but it shows my dedication to having an equal playfield for every SolidCoin user compared to coblee and artforz.

could be just a scam to scare people away from ltc

Where's the miner?

I've been working on a Bitcoin CUDA miner that can reach 10 Ghash/sec on NVidia GeForce 9800 GT. True story.

Recently one of our developers mtrlt spent about 4 hours adding scrypt support to Reaper, the SolidCoin GPU miner.

It currently gets ~720KH/s on a 6990 . Is it possible the "botnet" or "darkpool" mining Litecoin is actually artforz and coblee who have been mining LiteCoin using an unfair advantage since the start? Conning litecoin users into thinking it's a CPU mining chain when in fact the GPU dominates it?

Artforz publicly admitted to creating a GPU miner for litecoin numerous times, however he also said his GPU miner of scrypt (the algorithm used in Litecoin and which he selected) only got 9KH/s on a 6870 GPU. This is suspicious when our developer can get massive improvements over CPU with only 4 hours of effort, on the order of 150 times faster than artforz. Either artforz is terrible at creating GPU miners or he lied to litecoin users.

Coblee, the "creator" of Litecoin, copy- pasted Artforz's code from Tenebrix and was communicating with him around the time of previous coin fairbrix and his latest attempt Litecoin. He went around giving the exact speech artforz did, so they both were involved in spreading the "GPU Hostile" mistruth . The fact that that it is found that the coin is far from GPU Hostile should lead to questions being asked of both coblee and artforz as to how and why they misled the public.
