Changing the hashing algorithm

MrWyrm

We are going off topic. But he’s still not surfaced since the incident and everyone is cool with that?

You mean Jabot?

Yep.

Oddly enough,that appears to be the case. NXT forum hates me for bringing up his scams beforehand, yet love John for scamming them. Weird.

Now back to your regularly scheduled topic, sorry for derailing it.

NeoScrypt added to NOMP. Any testers?

If it doesnt work pop me a PM on bitcointalk or im always on irc on various crypto related channels including #feathercoin and #phoenixcoin under ahmed_ or ahmed_bodi (or such variants).

Based on Ghostlanders phoneixcoin p2pool and the scrypt based p2pool I mananged to get a neoscrypt p2pool working.

it can be found here:

https://github.com/wellenreiter01/p2pool-neoscrypt

and cloned with

git clone https://github.com/wellenreiter01/p2pool-neoscrypt.git

Please use and test it.

Add your test results, comments, remarks here:

From that repo and the recent commits it looks like your still using the ltc_scrypt module? and the one in the repo is the normal scrypt one?

Thank you so much for your help ahmed.

I’ve been caught up with work but I’ll be in contact.

Where is our feathercoin-testnet p2pool ?

Can’t sync,my feathercoin-testnet can not connect network.

I’m not sure. I’ll bring Pete’s attention this way when he has a chance.

edit

pm’d you.

I think someone should add NeoScrypt to this wikipedia page:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scrypt

The section with implementations would probably do well with a link to the github.

If anyone can improve the kernel file (neoscrypt.cl), then I will soon be completed .

What sort of thing is wrong with neoscript.cl Lizhi?

I need a openCL kernel for neoscrypt. main code is __kernel void search()

MrWyrm

I enjoyed that. Solo mining on the phoenix test net, PhenomII X4 940, 4 threads, listed at the bottom as 9202 hashes per second.

I’ve been looking for some information that might point us in the right direction. I skimmed openCL , but don’t know what is involved in creating a kernel.

I found this Github for scrypt that might show how it is done.

Training in openCL

Yes that does look a bit “complex”

all seems to be very quiet now, are we waiting for someone to develop the GPU miner now?

Cheers

When the forum get’s the quietest, the harder the team is working behind the scenes…

I have a team in Russia, a cryptographer in Germany, budding young talent in Egypt, and an ex nasa guy in the USA, just to name a few, who are potential candidates for the bounty.
