If you think YAC is going to rise, better to buy and hold.

...or write your own opencl kernel

is it still feasible to invest 35$/month in a 12 core vps to mine yac ?

I don't think so. I'm estimating, but the average 12-core setup would probably get you around 3-4 coins per day. Let's say 120 coins a month best case. At current market rates that's 0.06 BTC, which isn't going to pay off that VPS.

If you think YAC is going to rise, better to buy and hold.

I have to say I ran yac.ltc pool for a day and he did manage to pay me out.


Yeah...

OP updated. Added pool http://yac.ltcoin.net

No, no, no, don't do it! Guy behind the pool is a proven scammer!

Yep, I remember his FTC pool that never paid out.

Thanks, I removed this pool. Also added the first p2pool.

Yet Another cryptocoin that does not address the main problem of bitcoin: the recentralization via pools.

A lot of effort to discourage GPUs and ASICs, but pools are still an option.

Bad, bad, bad...

And how would you fix that? There is no way to prevent 3rd parties from pointing hashpower to one node and use that node as miner connected to network.

I follow this subforum, with the hope a new cryptocurrency comes with a solution to this matter, which would be IMHO a major break in crytocurrency development. But no chance...

In fact, I have my own ideas on how design a new CC with PoW where parallelization AND pools are severely discouraged. Perhaps in other thread.


Any sort of pool is centralization point. If I connect to P2Pool, my miner depends on data sent by that pool so I don't see where is the "improved decentralization" part of story.

You didn't catch the idea behind p2pool, did you? p2pool is a network of nodes, not a central server to where you call for getwork and send shares.

Something similar to p2pool (but not exactly) could be integrated to Bitcoin in such a way that it makes centralized pooling infeasable.

I don't see any problem with pools,


Pools are ways to recentralize a distributed network. Instead of a lot of independent nodes, you have a few of important nodes, easily attackable.

See what happens in BTC with BTCGuild and later with DeepBit.

especially if it's p2pool.

A significative advance of YAC would have been a reward system that internally acts as p2pool does. If p2pool is only an option among others (these eventually more attractive because of less variance), it is no advance towards avoiding recentralization.
