If you want to crowdfund an open source GPU miner, start a new thread for it and link it here.  There should be some discussion first (there), for example what level of performance is required to claim the bounty, etc.


Doing it now, and crossposting everything in this thread.

I think if some miners are interested we can help fund and opensource Claymores GPU miner and the Nvidia one (cant remember the members username) maybe Lucas's and Wolf's projects also.

I think creating a frontend GUI with temperatures (instead of Realtemp and Afterburner) would be a big +1 for newbs to the algo.

The diff should help the price imo.

Im looking longterm for XMR so I invested 30% of my BTC into coins, a private pool (due to DDOS issues) and helped the votes alittle on Mintpal.

Not a dev but I hope I can help the project flourish with a few ideas.



This is a very good idea. cbuchner1 announced that he has a miner. I think it's time to ask them (more than just one of us would be great) what they would consider accepting to open source their projects. This just seems like a crap joke at this point. It's great that claymore made a program .. but it's been described as terribly unoptimized by very knowledgeable sources. It needs to be open source, because claymore does not have the time to optimize it.

The problem here is that guys like cbuchner1 could be left with highly optimized miners, and we're just burning GPU power at this point. Mining is getting rough right now and it's really starting to choke off interest. People who aren't mining this right now aren't going to be the one's to come in and ask Claymore and cbuchner these questions .. it's kind of on us. There's one person in particular I know has a serious CPU farm here. I'm sure the private nvidia mining operation is somewhere near that at this point. We need to get on top of this.

Update 1: Claymore does not provide open source miners, period. We will need to start a fund for an open source AMD miner. I will kick it off with 150 XMR. I'd like to use an escrow or something if necessary.

So i have a few VMs that i want to solo mine but only port 80 is open. So they cant connect to peers.
Is it possible to make my laptop for example to be a node for those VMs so they can connect to the network?
If yes how?

You don't technically need incoming ports at all to run a node, though it is preferable.

If your node isn't able to work you probably have an old build with the obsolete seed nodes. Try upgrading.

If it can be done from one of the core members (crowdfunding) that would be great

Throw 1 BTC or the equivalent XMR into that from me for the AMD miner. And 0.2BTC for Nvidia (as I don't own any)

Will get the message out to a few friends that are already invested and mining Monero.

Update 2 Bounties : 150XMR + 1BTC for AMD Opensourced miner for XMR
                           150XMR + 0.2BTC  For Nvidia Opensourced miner for XMR

^Are you running it by double clicking on it? Did you double click on a .bat file yesterday instead of an .exe? Any errors it gives you?
errors can not to see. The window of bitmonerod  shut down too quick. yesterday ,it can run very well.

after couple of days waiting till some sellorders were filled (other coins), I am finally into Monero.
Which means at least 10 votes p/day extra  Wink

Why this??




My wallet balance is 0 D:

Monero (XMR) - secure, private, untraceable
^With the wallet (actually the wallet is telling the daemon to mine) you will be solo mining - if you have enough hash rate it's better. With minerd you are mining for a pool and you'll get small, but regular payments.

Is it better to mine with the wallet, or to mine with a program like minerd?

My vote just put Monero at #1 on Mintpal. ^_^

https://www.mintpal.com/voting

Thanks for the link. Just voted as well.

Mintpal's contribution to DRK volume was substantial, it seems. Would be a good exchange to be listed on.

If its possible theres quite a few interested parties that would pitch in (other than me) and I guess alot of other people I don't know would be willing to aswell.

Opensourced the probabilities are much higher of customizing and getting better hashes.

Claymore has added a few bug fixes but I think theres alot more power that can be generated out of our GPU's.

Alot of people are turning to GTX750Tis atm due to the lower power costs and cbuchner1's miners would work wonders for a different target group of miners.

The miners that are left in crypto are the smart ones (most of them that is) and are investors to.



Right, I don't own Nvidia cards. Many people still own AMD. Nonetheless, I will add to a second bounty for an open source Nvidia miner of the same amount. We will need both types of cards covered.

Again, Claymore's miner has been described as very unoptimized by more than one knowledgeable source. It's nice that the miner was released, but it won't be able to cut it. FFS its closed source. What kind of garbage are we promoting when that's a good idea? Crutch - sure. Final product? Absolutely not.

Just 44 votes untill Monero is #1 on mintpal, then expect a gradual slow rise turning into a large pump by monday. except this isn't a shitcoin, this is going to blow your minds. monero's volume counts up for over half of the total volume on poloniEX. Yup that means moneros volume is more than 100s of other coins put together. i can see litecoins replacement on its way. cryptonote is the future. you dont always get an opportunity like this one.

I hope this will not end in an uberpump - best thing on mintpal is additional liquidity + wider user base. monero is full of smart money and some huge whales who have long term interest in this project, as well as the high inflation rate - I think it will steadily rise and we do not see the price go full retard as it was the case with darkcoin.

your last part is probably true in the long run.

Smart money and some well known dev names got me interested in the project.

4 Votes for #1 on Mintpal btw Wink

Is there a stable GUI wallet for XMR? BBR has a decent one.
