I am trying to get vertminer working, and am offering a bounty of (one week of vertcoin mining with 4 7950s, and 2 280xs).

After trying to run vertminer on Ubuntu I get the following:

Code:
[2014-05-06 16:03:11] Started vertminer 0.5.2Segmentation fault (core dumped)

I think this is a fair bounty, please help!

Price = 1 VTC = 0.00180000 BTC

buy people buy

P.S
who sell at these prices - so I can not pay the cost of electricity

I'm wondering, will all coins based on Monocle follow the same N-factor schedule ? Because if you wanted to change this schedule for Vertcoin, you would have to change it for all merged coins isn't it ? Implying that every merged coin would have to hard fork to do that ? That would be a mess.

Yes, the merged chains must have the same N-factor at the time, otherwise the hashes for VTC won't be able to be validated by the merge chain.

I think there is no way to confusion

because currently you can only mining VTC or only mining MON - these are two separate coins that can be individually mininig

Very good team with a lot of knowledge

Indeed, so what do they have to say to the fact that some manufacturer advertise Adaptive N-factor compatibility ??
Because if it is indeed the case this is a total game changer... :/

see here

I don't know how many times we have to publicly say "VTC will hardfork if necessary to keep ASICs out" - we must have said it a hundred times!

I'll say it again, in case repetition number 101 will help - VTC will hardfork if that every becomes necessary to keep ASICs out. This isn't LTC, we're not going to suddenly decide to give up and capitulate in the face of a need to hardfork, we will do whatever is necessary to keep VTC decentralised and in part that means excluding ASICs by whatever means necessary.

In the autumn when all ASIC script are delivered / there are people who ordered a few of a them - 5, 10 or 20 units/
we will see massive 51% attacks of most of script coins, many of them will be killed and buried without honors

Think about this  Wink

Are you trying to bring vtc price down?

We addressed this a few pages ago, devs will simply hard fork to change the n schedule and that will eff with asics.
Making an asic with more than enough ram for scrypt is not cost effective and it should be designed from the ground up with this functionality in mind. (lookup gap, more ram)

Hmm seems I missed that post !  That is exactly what I was expecting of them Smiley

No intend on bringing the price down as I have been mining for quite some time now !

It is probably a scam, however an ASIC that can mine current N factor of VTC will probably be built in the near future. Its efficiency will likely drop exponentially with the increase of N) The Devs said that if a hard fork will be needed, they would do it in order to stay ASIC resistant.

Skilled in Python, Flask, PHP, Django and Drupal, Othe was also closely involved in the p2pool port to VTC. As an import/export guy, Othe also brings a keen business mind to VTC along with his technical skills.

Fake -_-

Needs better website and PR if it wants to be a successful scam.

Seems like it's a fake...only thing a scrypt asic would need for vertcoin mining at current N factor is a lookup-gap feature and being programmable right out of the box.
They can't add features after making them.

So fake or real ?

This is a serious issue for all scrypt-n coins if true !

There's no mention of scrypt-n mining chips here : http://www.innosilicon.com/A2.htm (if it is indeed the one they are integrating)

A render, russian site...scam.

Not necessarily they are featured in cryptocoinsnews...
The concept of shame really doesnt exist in this early crypto world is really like the wild west..
They build miners mine with them and then sell immediately as pre-order.
Considering their miners will ship in three months.
Plus the prices of chips at innosilicon right now at 200 per chip (maybe less depend on order) which makes 200x48=9600 (11,000 give take at current prices).
They are reaping all the profits now and three months later, they sell the 11,000 for 3,600.
If they dont make enough money by then simply delay shipment.
Pretty smart...

Oh and while you're at it, claim you can mine scrypt-N...three months and we'll find an engineer to make scrypt-N work with this chip  Cheesy

Double smart...
