As the thread title requests - If you have some free CPU power then try mining Gapcoin !

Gapcoin is a prime number based p2p cryptocurrency and the largest, decentralized prime gap search.

The original developer has sadly passed away, however the project is ongoing at: https://gapcoin.club

With increased hashing power (and continued development) the Gapcoin network will discover new Prime Gaps.

See: https://gapcoin.club/primegaps.php

Lets try to get cryptocurrency back in the news for all the right reasons again. Do it for the math and not just for the money. Cheesy

Gapcoin thread here at bitcointalk.org - see: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/anngap-gapcoin-prime-gap-search-new-math-algo-cpu-gpu-zero-premine-822498

Thank you.

EDIT: 5th June 2020 updated links and info.

How can I start to mining these Gapcoin? Do you have any guide line for set everything in the right way? I like to try mining new coins waiting for their PUMP Cheesy

If it is not stressfull for my cpu i will sett all my laptops to this kind of mining

" How mathematicians do it...

Combinatorists do it as many ways as they can.
Combinatorists do it discretely.
(Logicians do it) or [not (logicians do it)].
Logicians do it by symbolic manipulation.
Algebraists do it in groups.
Algebraists do it in a ring.
Algebraists do it in a field.
Analysts do it continuously.
Real analysts do it almost everywhere.
Pure mathematicians do it rigorously.
Topologists do it openly.
Topologists do it on rubber sheets.
Dynamicists do it chaotically.
Mathematicians do it forever if they can do one and can do one more.

Cantor did it diagonally.
Fermat tried to do it in the margin, but couldn't fit it in.
Galois did it the night before.
Möbius always does it on the same side.
Markov does it in chains.
Newton did it standing on the shoulders of giants.
Turing did it but couldn't decide if he'd finished. "

So this is a take over team? is this Gapcoin ? https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/gapcoin it's really not promising based on the overview but you are right this is much better than those token hype that does ICO so keep it up hope you got many pools and miners to mine Gapcoin

Correct.

Also here: https://coinpaprika.com/coin/gap-gapcoin/ (updating).

...

"In 2017 (confirmed in early 2018) the Gapcoin network found a new prime gap of maximum known merit! The merit M=G/ln(P1) of this gap is M=41.93878373153988, the largest merit of any known prime gap, and the first prime gap to be discovered with a merit exceeding 40. Source : https://faculty.lynchburg.edu/~nicely/ ...

... if the difficulty reaches (or spikes above) 41.94, every block will be a new world record!"

- https://gapcoin.club

...

Perhaps some new crypto exchanges will consider adding Gapcoin when we break our own record Prime Gap merit and contact Guinness World Records ...

Keep your BTC, we want your CPU and GPU hash power!

Since 2015 this gapcoin is only listed on two very low exchanges that probably 80% of crypto users haven't heard about before, this is not so good, it shows nothing but lack of good development so far, it's been way too long already

"If it ain't broke, don't fix it" ?

The gapcoin blockchain holds and discovers new Prime Gaps through useful proof-of-work, it works!

No such thing as an economic point of no return here ... just hard math and a sound Bitcoin based crypto-currency project.

Unlike fake tokens, BS ICO's and pump 'n' dump schemes we have not paid for exchange listings.

Gapcoin is testament to the ridiculousness nature of the entire crypto industry and a world ignorant to its true potential.

If the developer passed away then is this crypto still being developed?

Yes. Development continues, here ...

- https://github.com/gapcoin-project

- https://github.com/gapcoin-project/gapcoin/tree/v0.9.4-gap

Realize that Gapcoin has always run (and continues to run) like clockwork!

Is this coin is still circulated on the market? seems that the development has been started on 2015 and it was 5 years from now, and also cpu mining is now in the brink of faceoff because so many coin now offered a mobile phone mining, so I wonder if this project still attract miners up today.

Gapcoin should be listed (re-listed) on additional markets in the future.

At one time this genuine altcoin was listed on coinmarketcap and traded with relatively high volumes on Cryptopia, Poloniex and other exchanges.

Gapcoin was de-listed mainly due to a lack of continuing development and perhaps some uncertainty and clarity in regards to the project being stalled and/or future proof etc.,

Useful proof of work (finding prime gaps) helps to ensure that Gapcoin has a practical purpose and a longevity above its market (monetary) functions.

Gapcoin is a prime number based p2p cryptocurrency and the largest, decentralized prime gap search.

How come nobody give two shits about that? How do you think is what you say reflected in its valuation? Literally no one gives a salamander about what gapcoin is because the space is on the brink of decay and the more weeks pass the higher the chance that even leading crypto echelons like ETH will never recover. Its over. Stop paying attention to crypto trends and shelve back to your normal crud routine.

I think I would hook an asic to it. With it, I will put bitcoinfx punk on his knees. He swanks being a solo guy, well good for him. Maybe your a soloist in every other aspect of your life, namely self-stimulation of ur genitals and fulfillment of other needs, but Im not that guy. I know that no one dared to put an asic on it heretofore. I will be the first humming internet guy to end this coins life cycle.

Makes total sense because very few people take poetic liberties when formulating a response in the bowels of the Altcoin ANN section. I would reward your peculiar wordsmithing with a merit but as I consider BitcoinFX a friend (in the loose, internet-driven sense of the term) that would be impolite, albeit not as much as your response.

Instead, be happy that your accomplishments have been memorialized in one of the greatest tribute threads to ever caress the forum and let that serve as motivation to continue with your cryptic buggery.

Sorry BitcoinFX for hijacking your thread for a moment. I will use my bump power to bump it to the top of the ANN section to make up for my intrusion.

You are welcome to head over to the main thread, which is slightly more active ...

and yes we should all be sorry ... Gapcoin has a genuinely ...

Useful Proof-of-Work | Functional Mathematics | Logarithmic Coin Issuance | Unique Blockchain | Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT)

Not a Token | Not an ICO | No Pre-sale | No Pre-mine | No Air-drop | No Chain Forks (yet!)

...

IMHO the gapcoin project deserves a higher market cap than say Litecoin.

Both Bitcoin's and Litecoin's PoW are totally 'useless', although we may not fully understand currently if it might have some use later on for finding 'patterns' or discovering 'weak keys' etc.,

Gapcoins PoW is useful now.

Gapcoin CPU mining ... still profitable after 4 years ...

and

We did it! ...

NEW PRIME GAP OF MAXIMUM KNOWN MERIT
- http://gapcoin.club/new-prime-gap-of-maximum-known-merit-press-release.php

The Gapcoin network (Jonnie Frey, developer), a Bitcoin derivative which employs a hashing algorithm to search for prime gaps of high merit, has discovered a new prime gap of maximum known merit, a gap of G=8350 following the 87-digit prime P1=293703234068022590158723766104419463425709075574811762098588798217895728858676728143227. The merit M=G/ln(P1) of this gap is M=41.93878373153988, the largest merit of any known prime gap, and the first prime gap to be discovered with a merit exceeding 40. The endpoints of the gap have been certified as primes deterministically, using the Akiyama-Kida-O'Hara UBASIC implementation (1988-1992) of the APRCL2 test, due to Adleman, Pomerance, Rumely, Cohen, H. W. Lenstra, and A. K. Lenstra (1984-1987).

I have updated the Gapcoin_blockchain.zip download so that anyone can easily get started mining in the wallet within an hour or so.

... The largest decentralized prime gap search + new world record and attempt ongoing! - Join us! ...

GPU solo mining is also available, but here be dragons! So, test with older cards / rigs first or until new miners are released.

Pool operators and software developers welcome!
