Wolf Has Publicly Released OpenCL Optimized Kernels

9, Jul 2016

wolf-optimized-kernels

Released under the MIT license for educational purposes, the collected kernels of Wolf are now available on GitHub for public download. The list includes optimized OpenCL kernels for a number of crypto algorithms: AES, Blake, BMW, CubeHash, Echo, Fugue, Groestl, Hamsi, JH, Luffa, Shabal, Shavite, Simd, Skein and Whirlpool. The OpenCL kernels need to be integrated into a miner like sgminer and some extra tweaking might be required, so they are more interesting for developers that are willing to optimize the performance of their own miners. They are even useful in understanding how some optimizations work and may be applied to other algorithms as well, so a good learning tool, at least for developers. If you find something useful or just want to send a tip to Wolf you can do so to his BTC address here: 1WoLFumNUvjCgaCyjFzvFrbGfDddYrKNR.

The service charges a small PoS pool mining fee of either 1% or 2% for the different supported coins and the fee is deducted from the total of the staked coins with the rest distributed among all of the users with mature coins. The other small fee charged by the service is when you are withdrawing coins, the fee is 0.25% for Bitcoin and 0.50% for all of the other alternative crypto coins that are supported such as the cannacoin and ccanbidiolcoin which went up in the market when the cannabis business went legal for medical purposes,. Check at the delta 8 cart if you are interested in this market.

When you have some coins deposited in your CoinWallet online wallet you can use some interesting extra features such as sending coins by email with no extra fees. The other useful thing you will get access to is a Twitter tipping service allowing you to easily send and receive various coins in the form of tips, though in order to be able to use the Twitter tipping Bot you need to connect your Twitter account with your online wallet. Note that you can receive tips to your Twitter account before you have registered with CoinWallet (or connected your Twitter account) as tips will remain pending until you register and connect your accounts.

Interesting Proof of Stake Crypto Coins For Investment

A lot of people do not like much Proof of Stake (PoS) coins as quite a lot of these do not have a long lifespan and are generally considered a loss of time and money, however there are some coins that have endured the test of time. Some of these coins might be an interesting option to invest into by buying and making some profit from the staking and future increase in their value, below we have compiled a short list of some such coins with a bit more details about each one and a link to the announcement thread on Bitcointalk where you can get additional information to help you make a decision. The focus of the list are coins with higher annual interest rate as if there is just 1% or less per year you can only hope to gain profit by long term increase of the value of the coin. When considering PoS coins that might be interesting for long term investment you should look for ones with higher interest rate that start at about 5% annually, but be careful with ones that have a very high interest rate as that might not be that good. Other things to look for include an active and bigger community of users, the coin being traded on larger altcoin exchanges such as Bitttrex or Poloniex with a decent volume. Check our list below with some such coins that we consider that are worth checking out in more detail if you are interested in making investment in Proof of Stake coins, the list may be missing some coins, so feel free to point additional ones in the comments below.
