Agent v1.4.4 Available!

Hey everyone,

A new solver version v1.4.4 is available for download from the dashboard. If you're still running v1.4.2 or v1.4.3, please update ASAP.

https://ecdlp.protect.cx/download/ArmadilloSolver.zip

What's fixed:

v1.4.2 and v1.4.3 had a worm initialization bug that caused massive overlap between agents — up to 99.9% of your DPs were duplicates that the server already had. In other words, most of your GPU cycles were wasted computing points that other agents had already found.

v1.4.4 uses a chained pre-hash algorithm for worm seeding that guarantees unique starting points across all agents, regardless of launch timing or PID.

Results after deploying v1.4.4:

DP yield: 99.3% (verified across all 28 agents on the leaderboard)
Zero overlap between agents
Speed unchanged: ~3.5 G/s per RTX 5090
Fleet total: 89 G/s with 29 active agents
Progress so far: 3.6%, ETA ~5.5 days
How to update:

Just download the new ArmadilloSolver.zip from the dashboard page and replace your solver_fast.exe. No config changes needed — same command line as before.

The dashboard is live at the usual address if you want to check your agent's stats.

Every GPU counts — let's crack this code!
