Neoscrypt for nvidia cards based on cuda: Call for donation.
-
djm34: No offence now mate, but to be honest I think the low level of donations so far mainly is because you claim to have stuff that works but in fact nobody can really vouch for that, and screenshots can very easily be manipulated as we all know.
Mind you though, I’m definitely not saying you’re a scammer, so don’t misunderstand me. But I truly believe that if you handled this in another way you’d get more donations and the CUDA-miner would see the official light of the day.
I think one big step would be if we set up an official donation address held by the FTC-team for you, that’s good intention from your side, and a guarantee for everyone investing that you simply won’t just take the money and run :)
If we decide to do it that way, someone could also hook up with you on a video chat where you can show some kind of proof that you actually tell the truth (again, I’m not stating you’re lying right now, but the crypto business is shady in general so we all need to take precautions).
Give it some thought at least :)
Why not… I don’t have anything against it (the program really exists and runs…)
not sure how to make a video, so if you have suggestion at that level…
-
Well it is free but you need people to donate a card, so that’s not really free :) No I guess you understand the reason for a pledge…
Regarding Nvidia cards, sure I support their products. They have nice cards some are clearly overpriced but not all. The 750ti was pretty cheap and pretty good for mining (and the forthcoming gtx960 shouldn’t be too expensive with performance probably better than the 750ti).
Regarding opencl. Wolf0 who developped neoscrypt kernel for sgminer5 claims he has a kernel (private) doing 600kh/s on 290x may-be you could try to reach that speed with yours and release it for free, I guess you already have the material (Wolf0 won’t be happy if he reads me ;) )
I don’t just have claims, I has proof :P
But anyway, I’m not unhappy - I enjoy competition, it keeps me sharp.

This should fall under healthy competition, nobody really lose on it :)
djm34: I’ll talk with others from the team to try and find out who can act middle man and hold the donation adress for you :)

ok thanks.
In the mean time, here are some new numbers:
gtx980: 630kh/s
gtx780ti: 300kh/s
gtx750ti: 150kh/s

That’s pretty cool! :)

I posted the ad to the feathercoin forum and discovers there are mostly a bunch of morons
:o
-
:o
^-^ well, imagine you developed something and you post to the forum where the people who should care the most are…
then reread the first posts following my announcement… you’ll get an idea why I wrote that… ;D
-
Thanks. OK I retract my offer stick your miner up your arse!

;D fair enough (although it was written before anyone made an offer and when the discussion was just centered on paying part of ghostlander card… so sorry but up to then, yes I had just the feeling to either be on the wrong forum or discussing with morons who wouldn’t even answer to me… :)) )
-
In his defence, for Bitcointalk, that’s pretty tame. :)
-
okay fuck it, I’ve thought about if I should speak my mind or not all night and I’ve decided I’m not gonna hold it in…
Some of us tried to be helpful, we saw something that could be for the greater good. We even discussed it privately andcame to the conclusion that there’s nothing wrong with you wanting to get payed either.
Meanwhile, you go acting like a fucking five year old just because you get into an argumentation with one other member, and based on that calls us all morons over at btc-talk.
Well, you know what, your’e just a fucking douchebag with absolutely no honor or morale what so ever. It seems like you’re just like all the other pump n’ dumpin leeches in the crypto scene, just in it for a few quick bucks but with no intentions what so ever trying to make the world a better place.
So either release the kernel open source and do what’s right, or just go fuck yourself somewhere else.

I wish I’d not posed that now haha. He deserves another chance, everyone comes round to the feathercoin way of thinking eventually. ;D
-
Now lets get back to being our usual civil selves. Would you like a member of the team to hold a donation address? :)

Actually this message happened before you posted that… (and actually probably around post 16…and 5 days after the initial post without any useful input…)
Sorry but in that context when you post a serious proposition and that the only answers you get are someone telling he can do better and the other one telling he will buy him a card… sorry but out of frustration “bunch of morons” still applies and we are not far away from standard bitcointalk trolling (and I must admit that my first answer to my first post on bitcointalk was a lot less insulting than the one I got here). So don’t expect me to apology for that…
Now you can think whatever you want about me and my honor, I couldn’t care less.
It isn’t about making a quick buck (and there is nothing wrong with that) but rather to have a fair distribution of the resource.
I personally find completely abnormal that I will get donation in general always from the same 10~15 people while a miners gets downloaded 1000 times (was the case for xcn miner actually). They are not richer than the 985 others who didn’t donate, don’t have huge farm either and there are among these 985 others people with large resource.
So basically, and sorry to contradict you, releasing to everyone, clearly doesn’t make the “world a better place” and on the contrary tends to increase the inequality… There are way too many selfish individual who just expect things to happen, and won’t do anything at all to help the community. And until this behavior changes, I don’t plan to change the way I release new miners.
So if you think it is just about making a quick bucks think twice before insulting me and my honor and review a bit your concept of “better place” because right now, crypto is very far away from it (and it is probably more the collective responsibility of coin dev (or so called, I don’t accuse you) than mine or any gpu dev)
I guess, if you don’t want to organize anymore the donation, I will chose your second choice and what I said before still stand if there isn’t enough donation (meaning enough people donating not the amount donated) then I will only give the miner to those who donated, because in current context, it is the only fair thing to do.

Well if the offer still stand even after my previous message, why not. :))

Look, people’s time is important and I agree in crypto currently we haven’t got the incentives and rewards correct, the bad apples still make a killing and the good guys get forgotten, it’s the puzzle that keeps me awake at night, sadly with no answers. So whilst, I give my time away for free and would love donations (please tip me), it’s not my place to expect others to do the same so you won’t hear me asking. I’d much rather you came on here as a good guy and be hailed a hero than depart a villain. Unfortunately, throwing apples at Ghostlander isn’t the way to win friends round here, to everyone here he’s a hero who we owe a debt of gratitude for his work developing Neoscrypt.
So can we just be nice to each other FFS haha :)

Hello,
if you did make a donation for ccminer, could you please pm your txid so I can send you the binaries (I have a few more donations than people…)

Hello djm34
Thanks for your offer. To clarify, is your pieces of software NeoScrypt ready?
Ghostlander, how much improvement will you expect in the hashrate once you start working on a 980GTX?
-
yes it is ready
doing 620~630kh/s on gtx980
around 500kh/s on gtx970 (from what was reported)
300kh/s on 780ti
155 (my card) up to 175kh/s (reported) for the gtx750ti

Very good djm,
Are you willing to get paid only in BTC? No FTC? There is no force…But we are sure our coin will continue to live happily ;)
