As difficulty goes up and people stop generating, this gets more and more statistically interesting... you say I should, right?<br/></div><br/>The network <b>will</b> eventually be run by "oligarchs". Once software is optimized as far as it can be, it will come down to hardware, bandwidth, and, in the long-term, electricity generation. Most people won't be able to keep up.<br/><br/>Posting GPU code now will just prolong the period when generation is feasible for normal people. This will attract a few users, and it might increase the network's total power on the short-term, but on the long-term it'll have little value. If I were you, I'd keep the code private. Publishing it wouldn't be <i>bad</i> for the network, though.</div> text/html
