Are you guys getting wild hashrate fluctuations on RVN?
My 1080 tis go from 17-22-15.. they're just all over the place.
EDIT: They're all reporting 28MHs now O_o
Yes, the algo is a combinations of 16 algos, every algo have a different hashrate
Huh! Cool thanks for the info..
Reading the whitepaper the MIT devs created X16R algo specifically for the RVN coin - and to be ASIC resistant.
The X16R hashing algorithm consists of 16 hashing algorithms operating in chain
fashion with the ordering dependent on the last 8 bytes (16 nibbles) of the hash of the
previous block. The algorithms are as follows:
0=blake
1=bmw
2=groestl
3=jh
4=keccak
5=skein
6=luffa
7=cubehash
8=shavite
9=simd
A=echo
B=hamsi
C=fugue
D=shabal
E=whirlpool
F=sha512
Example:
Previous Block Hash:
0000000000000000007e8a29f052ac2870045ae3970270f97da00919b8e86287
The final 8 bytes: 0x7da00919b8e86287
Each hex digit (nibble) determines which algorithm to use next.
cubehash -> shabal -> echo -> blake -> blake -> simd -> bmw -> simd -> hamsi ->
shavite -> whirlpool -> shavite -> luffa -> groestl -> shavite -> cubehash
