This is the "carrot or stick" approach.
The 0.5% is the carrot for the masses to enter the SSL prison.
When the majority of the miners (sheeps) voluntarily enter the prison, the plain connection will be removed (stick), and escape will be impossible.
Then it will be easy to increase the fees at will.
Same story again.
Nice of you to compare people with sheep.
I'm not going to remove plain connection, so you still can try to remove 2% devfee and become rich.
I never increase devfee, only reduce.
Anyone noticed the post of the guy who circumvented the devfee with his tamper is gone.
Good news for Claymore and all the honest miners here.
Yes, thank you all for support, also thanks to mods that care about removing cracks from their forums.
I have enough experience in these games. These "hackers"
think that all their cracks work.
Readme explains things about cheating clearly.
Of course it's possible to cheat and not to turn protection on, but it's rather difficult to see whether it's working, it's just a few %. So in most cases using cracks is similar to using "-nofee" option.
You misunderstood.
I pay my fees normally. I am a decent "hacker", not a thief. I WANT to pay my fees, i don't HAVE TO. I perfectly well know how to "adjust" my fees, to 0%, and anything to 0 - 100% generally (layer 7 manipulation in a smart router).. Even without any tampering at the data stream, you may pay 0% or anything between 1.9 - 9.1% fee. Simple math.
That doen't meen that i will do it, and even worst that i will propagate this to other users. As a developer myself, i am exactly at your position.
That i am telling, is that ENFORSEMENT of your rights (or law in general), must not hurt the life of 99%+ of us lawful users (citizens) because of the 1%- of thiefs. This is a terrible foreseable future, and i strongly oppose.
You don't have to remove plain connection, the POOLS will! You will have nothing to blaim for... But the simple user will be obliged to follow SSL if he wants to mine. This is slavery.
Thanks for your app.
p.s. yes most people let others to think for themselves and blindly repeat every nonsense they hear, like sheeps. Is it new to you?
it's no problem for me that you're using ssl for securing your miner against no fee wrappers etc but IMHO you should just say so - I believe most people won't have an issue with it
