Unfortunately this is the sorry state of what GPU mining has devolved into. Instead of knowing what the next latest and greatest ASIC is that you'll have to sell your current ones for, you don't know exactly who is designing private kernels in the background and trading them. This is exactly the reason I didn't get into ASICs in the first place, only much worse.
This should change once this gains more light, but he's been profiting off this for the last three or so months (and now apparently even is gloating about it). You even have the audacity to bitch and moan about a lack of donations while doing this. I'm sure you all remember when the difficulty spiked and had nothing to do with BTC prices back in Oct/Aug?
I really should make a new thread for this so you're flogged publicly.
Amen to that
Well, W0lf started selling these kernels when he realized nobody was donating for his work. I would have done the same unless I had a huge farm. I don't see why it would be prohibited to get payed for having the skillset needed. And for what its worth, he released his own bins when they where leaked by somebody else.
Honestly, I don't know why you are upset, there will always be kernel developers out there with a faster kernel, just like there will be better workers than you for the job you are applying, you just have to be first. LOL please don't be offended by this but it is how the world works
