Actually the new algo is a downgrade on Scrypt Jane which was released 2 years ago. As you are all aware Scrypt Jane has 7 hashing functions Sha256, Sha512, Blake256, Blake512, Skein512, Keccak256 and Keccak512 will your miracle new function has 5 and took months to complete.

Scrypt Jane is still ASIC resistant. Not sure what exactly your trying to sell here but it quite obviously is a downgrade on 2 year old code. Shame really, try something a little more unique next time maybe.

lol wut. Scrypt-Jane, also known as scrypt-chacha, has Keccak-512 and chacha. That's all.
@Wolf0 have you any idea what the system ram requirements for Lyra2RE are likely to be? Thanks, V.

Would someone explain in detail how Vertcoin will be a Multipool resistant ..... what has changed in the algorithms for Multipool resistant

Multipool resistance is a bullshit. Miners will update software, multipools will adopt it in a hour.

Its not a multipool if there is only one coin for it.

I honestly don't think they can deploy the elite kernel in an hour or one day.

Multipools will have to update their software to match Lyra2RE.
If they just copy-paste the code, odds are they won't be profitable. A new elite kernel will have to be developed.

Is Lira2RE on testnet now? if so, could you share nodes? Can't get it to start syncing.

I just noticed that RC1 of sgminer-Lyra2RE has been released: https://github.com/metalicjames/sgminer-Lyra2RE/releases/tag/5.0.0-Lyra2RE-RC1

Are there already some test pools / testnets to test the new sgminer-Lyra2RE on Lyra2RE stratum mining?

This! Test pool?

can you provide update for nomp stratum ?

Quite possibly, although I am no expert on node and NOMP is no longer being developed...

OK, I believe I managed to patch the stratum server with Lyra2RE support  (Shares are getting accepted)  Cool
Should I start the pool now or I have to wait until  the hardfork block pass ?

Oh sweet, could you host the changes on github or send the code to me so I can host it for others? Only run it after the fork block, the wallet will reject all block solutions otherwise.

Ironically, each Titan coming online and mining VTC brings about the fork even faster. I think I like how this works Smiley

Not really. The difficulty will retarget it, I suppose.


You're right, forgot that VTC retargets after each block.

It's good because I want to put sgminer through some thorough testing. Smiley

Not yet....


Asics are unavoidable and should be embraced as a natural evolution of a coin. ... sad.

What makes you think so?

Your fighting a losing battle by continuing to change your algo over and over once an asic is able to mine. A successful coin will never be mined by GPU and CPU only because there is value to the coin. If there is value to something, someone will create a better way to mine it which in the end helps create network security.

This is the basis of crytpo and any coin fighting it will lose eventually.

Right, thats why litecoin was over $50 at one point while being mined by gpu's and cpu's. Now that asics hit them the coin value and plummeted, but yeah look at that network security .

FYI

A huge thank you to James and the dev team for their hard work. We shall not forget the community donations, either. Thank you all!
