Just came from a typical weekly meeting (every Monday or Tuesday morning), back & forth discussion on non-conclusive stuffs, kinda boring; just seen many posts popped up.

I was a bit depressed too in the last few days as to the price. Some people on this coin are most likely just mining, dumping, and then moving to the next coin. Fortunately we have many people who are around not solely for this purpose. All their supports are the reason that XMG is and remain to be here.

For people who care about the price, we may need to notice the connection with the daily trading volume. We need to work out some more exchanges along that, as well as to make XMG to be known by more people. Following are the exchanges you can vote for XMG:

lol again ?  

First: Why ? There is no gpu running on it, this coin is already cpu only...

Second: Why do you think gpu are bad at doing numerical computation ?
For your information: http://www.mathworks.com/discovery/matlab-gpu.html

 

The implementations of floating point on Nvidia GPUs are mostly IEEE compliant; however, this is not true across all vendors.[9] This has implications for correctness which are considered important to some scientific applications. While 64-bit floating point values (double precision float) are commonly available on CPUs, these are not universally supported on GPUs; some GPU architectures sacrifice IEEE compliance while others lack double-precision altogether. There have been efforts to emulate double-precision floating point values on GPUs; however, the speed tradeoff negates any benefit to offloading the computation onto the GPU in the first place.[10]

Hi DJM, thanks for commenting. I am glad and other miners will be glad too as you comment:

We will kill most of GPUs by having above if they do exist. In addition to that, I am pretty sure numerical computation in resolving scientific problems can't be handled fully by parallel computation.

You can have your bot farms. I'm hashing away on my trusty



So NYAHH

I personally don't care if magi has a gpuminer or not (but I have been contacted by someone who had your authorisation to make one... for amd, it isn't like nobody is looking   ), what I don't like is that you want to change the rules of the game middle game.
And technically it will just hurt the small miner. People with large hashrate will still have large hashrate but since the decrease of the hashrate they will clearly make a lot more with your reward system...
  ok so may-be it is just that, decreasing the net hashrate so that big whale makes a lot more coin...  without hitting the 60MHash/s net hashrate....  
So actually by changing your algo you are even changing the "fair" distribution and reward system you put in place and sorry this seems fishy to me...

See DJM, this is the open source world, no one makes a rule for something; how many changes has darkcoin made at the beginning? Even Richard Stallman needs to keep improving his source code. I am not keeping doing this personally as I like, since people like to mine with cpu, I want keep that. I won't expect any further changes regarding the algo in the future after this. �

From the miner point of view, algo change is really straightforward: upgrade his minerd; and the wallet too in order to receive coins. The advantage will be that we are even safe with cpu mining. I am really surprised why you reacted so much.

If one gets reduced hashrate due to the algo change, the same things happen to all other miners; please don't get people wrong at this point, why should "People with large hashrate will still have large hashrate". Surely we also need to make changes to the rewarding system to match with algo. Your guess on this is really not standing. Any person can argue with me about the fairness, while the change I want to make to try making it fair. Just think about the changing to be made, I really think why shouldn't we consolidate the cpu mining while we can.
