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
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.
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.
