Its pretty much worthless now.

And why is that? I'm new to protoshares so if you could explain that would be great  Smiley

PTS-GPU mining
http://pts.1gh.com/

this PTS-GPU-mining is just fantastic for my "old" cards Smiley
two air-cooled HD6990 (from 2011)
one makes 2257 cpm - the other makes 2378 cpm
both at full speed/PTS - with scrypt-mining they are getting too hot, so i can only run them at ~75 % speed

the power-comsumption is very nice:
PTS: 650 watt / 4750 cpm // clock: 900/1350 mHz
Scrypt: 905 watt / 1840 kh/s // clock: 900/1350 mHz

come on - join this pool with your GPUs!

Which is the fastest CPU miner, I have a VM on Azure rocking 20 cores AMD 64x, and another friends VM aswell with the same specs which sums it up to 40 cores, Thanks Smiley

You will need to try a few different ones located here:

How many protoshares do you think I would mine a day with 24 i5 systems? I haven't mined them before, so I kind have no clue how much hash that would generate or how productive it would be...

From 1 to 2 PTS depends from your system performance.
I suggest to use yvg1900 miner with ypool

Did the ProtoShares people give out the bounty yet? With GPU mining now being a think I can't see any place other than the grave for this coin to go to.

They did pay out a tip to the person who open sourced the Cuda miner.  PTS is here to stay for now as its a way to speculate on BitShares and all the new chains they are launching.

(To back up my claim a bit, recall that I'm the person who wrote the new-improved Kepler based scrypt mining code for NVidia GPUs, and I seem to have a day job as a Ph.D. computer scientist.

I think we should move on and forget about Mtmlr, some may think he is good some may not.

In my opinion if some kind of an escrow can be arranged, everyone should feel safe.

Any objections?

Point is moot - the guy behind Invictus sponsored the release.  The code is free - both as beer and speech. :-)

But for the future, yes - I'm still glad to know that escrow options exist.  It was challenging to find a way to fund the development of something that you give away for free, and I think it's important for the community as a whole to be supportive of the (relatively few!) developers who make it possible for everyone to play.  And I don't just mean for one-off improvements like the ones I've created - I mean folks like Christian and the author of ptsminer and yam and cgminer, etc., who've built *and maintained over long times* their full codebases.  It's not easy, it's not always fun, and the people who can do it probably have other things they can get paid for.

I'm not trying to troll.

And yet...you are still doing it.

I haven't tried it

What a surprise.

How about STFU unless you have some actual information.

He's released an open source miner. It is quite fast on high end cards, faster than any single CPU (although not dramatically so), but definitely much better than most CPUs in terms of $s/h and almost certainly in terms of probably J/h.

You were already wrong when you said "We're about to get Mtmlr'd" but now instead of admitting it you continue to dig deeper.



You don't have to be a jerk about it. That, and trolling means to intentionally spark debate.

I never said I was right either. I'm just saying that I was suspicious. That's all.
