Hello guys i want to learn something.
That is exact cryptonight hashrate of the gtx 750ti with this miner ? can anyone share this information ? it will be very helpful.
Have a nice day

so any ideas sp? ... what would you prefer? ... just donations? ...
#crysx
I can include a 1% fee, and keep it opensource. I just need to refork tvpruvot's work, and add my modded kernals. The 1.6.6 version supports mining to multiple pools.
Then I just need to optimize every algo a few percent, and everybody would use my optimized kernals...
If it keeps you happy and interested. 2% is still fine dude. 1% SP, 1% split between other contributors... I think people might even do 3%, but higher then that and people will start getting rowdy.
Make sure you note it at the beginning and when it's mining shares for you though so people can easily see what's happening.
If you really want to push this you can add a bit of your meaty private kernel to it to beef it up and make people want to swap (if they're hashing more then 2% faster it's essentially a wash).

My private quark kernal is 16% faster than the opensource, and I am currently expanding my farm.

I think best way to keep it private, and maybe sell to just trustable persons or keep it just for yourself Smiley)) With donations, Someone do , others don't(most of them) .I'm ready to support this project any options.If you want to continoue like this i'll continoıue donations.If you wanna sell ,i'm ready to buy Smiley))  Grin.Without improved kernels it's not common issue to earn some bucks..

Donation on the way.TrxID: 194643f26c8fb51019989ea9108ce1e8644828a75bfe4717b893950d898591e8

you talk about profit sp - does this still mean the fiat conversion from coins? ... or profit as in conversion to btc? ...

I haven't got any profit yet. But my farm is growing... An investment for the future.

But then I doubt any other developer would contribute his own work to your fork...
And someone could easily fork your work, modify the hardcoded pools and lower the fee. Or remove it altogether.

True. So this might not be an option. People have tried this before.

1. Claymore's/djm34 approach. Closed source/fast kernals. (Not an option for me since I use gpl code and don't want to rewrite everything.)
2. Girinos approach. Forced donation  (opensource) People will remove the donation code, refork and make it free.
3. Miner control's approach. (donation with a switch) Everybody is turning off the donation switch.
4. SP's approach. code for beer. Will work as long as the beer's keep comming Smiley But the biggest gains are not open sourced, mostly the easy pickings.
5. Private farm with private kernals.. Much profit, much Risk.


leave the open source as is ... like pallas said - the opensource is just that and all devs can contribute and improve the code ...

the private miner that you have would be at least 25% ahead of the opensource one - so mine with it and accept donations as is for the opensource project ...

i cant see why the model that is NOW will not function in the future when EVERYTHING is opensourced ... community members who mine have been donating for a long time - its just not a great deal all at once ... its trickles from each individual miner / donor ...

so why not amalgamate all of the donations into one and cut the share of those donations ... if EVERYONE had those private miners - would ALL the devs receive donations? ... if the current state of donations are anything to go by - probably not ...

so how are we to donate more - and entice the miners that are using all these miners for free - to donate also? ...

i have a couple of ideas - but have yet to formulate HOW to do it ... so i need to think some more about it ...

i have the donation links up - and will update the op of the donation thread tomorrow - so people can mine to donate for the dev of their choice as well as donate directly if they like ... though the donation links ARE anonymous and amalgamated ... so if 7 miners mine for sp at the same time - it will show as ONE miner on nicehash with xxx hashrate ...

the current working donation links to date are sp - djm34 - wolf0 - pallas - klaust - tpruvot and crysx ( me ) in case anyone wants to donate to help with the costs of all the servers and maintenance / updates which for the moment is out of my own pocket ...

the other way involves the multipool i want to setup and will involve a certain process of things for that to happen - but i have yet to find anyone that has the time and is willing to build the multipool ... yet ... i can keep my fingers crossed Smiley ...

one dev has said he will look at it later when he has the time ... and im hoping that will happen - but i understand if it doesnt ...

thefarm will have a bit to do with the donation links also - and i have a plan to utilize thefarm in some way as well ... unfortunately - that too is waiting on the HOW it will be implemented ... ill figure that one out soon ...

you talk about profit sp - does this still mean the fiat conversion from coins? ... or profit as in conversion to btc? ...

i dont look at anything in crypto as 'profit' on the fiat level - ever ... that is a completely different world from that with which im doing with the farm and crypto - so i get a little confused when people start talking about 'profits' and being 'profitable' ...

cant wait to get back into the office tomorrow ... i have a LOT of work to do ...

You can test release 61+ here:

http://cryptomining-blog.com/wp-content/download/ccminer-1.5.61-git-spmod.zip

lyra2v2 is doing almost 15MHASH on the 980ti.

The lyra2v2 kernal is unchanged.

Optimalizations in Blake-256, bmw-256, keccak-256 and skein-256

I am doing a mix of 4 and 5..

ok - so you are going with the included percentage fee for use with the spmod miner? ...

opensource is still the way to go - so thats a good thing ...

will this also mean that the 'inhouse / private' optimizations will come out for the general public with the 1% mining? ... or will you still have the private optimizations as being something that would still be up for sale? ...

also - when you say multipool support - does that mean autoswitching algos? ...

the most precious of all this is the miner itself ... the software that drives all this ...
i want to be able to help with 'incentive' to continue development and financial gain to grow - as would most of us here that use the fruits of your ( and other devs ) labor ...
help us help you by giving us more ideas to bring this about ... i need ideas not just from my self - but also from the community and from the devs themselves that can benefit greatly from successful ideas to incentivize the development of opensource to the level that it can not be outperformed very easily ...
Maybe a subscription service, pay a monthly fee to get newest miners. Or a less desirable but possibly more effective route would be closed source miners that donate a percentage of hashes like the claymore AMD miner for cryptonote algo. I only say less desirable because I like open source. Or just set a price for each new version. I think people are willing to pay but when it's voluntary it's easy to forget or procrastinate or just be greedy.
I don't post much but have donated to the ccminer devs and will continue to, without you guys we couldn't mine  Grin
Sent a couple beers to SP a58c7f816250c31b2f045e963a0e39aaeab8c98212bac77a6d1ee210665a8d99

Edit: I tried lyra2v2 to see if it was quark-specific: r61 got about 50% reject with reason: high hash. r60 reports around 19.6MH, pool says 19.2 after 10 minutes. So it IS quark-specific. Any idea SP?

in release 61 when mining lyra2v2 you don't need to use the --diff 2 on nicehash.com and other pools. On givemecoins you need to use --diff 0.5

If you build from head the lyra2v2 has been optimized 2-3% on compute 5.2 devices. (gtx 960, 970, 980,980ti)

Yeah that'd be great, but none of the devs want to do that... I suggested the very same thing.

The issue with a flat price (subscription or per-release) is that it creates a barrier to entry for people will little hardware. If the miner costs more than you can hope to make with your card, you don't buy it. Big farms, on the other hand, only spend a small fraction of their earnings to pay for the same miner.
That's why I prefer a percentage donation: the more you make, the more you support the developer. That's what I've been trying to do for SP, giving a day's worth of profits every two weeks. When I do this, it's just beers, but if a big farm did the same, it could become a living wage...

As Grout said, if you've been around the community, some of the flat fees are way too high and they're based on just a handful of very large transactions, which kills things for the average miner. I agree about a percentage based mining fee.

I disagree. djm's miner works perfectly for solo mining and is rock stable.  SP_'s errors out for some reason. It's something in the code.
