Just switch to sha256 merged mining. You'll have dedicated miners and the most secure network (after Bitcoin).

By the way, I don't really understand how "cloud mining" being replaced by "15 year old gamers in their mom's basements" are a good thing.

Even at hour wage for a competent gpu programmer that's a slave's pay - but if someone were to make this he could make way more just by mining

Time to Shutdown Cloud Mining - 1 BTC Bounty for GPU Implementation

I am looking for a GPU implementation of  momentum_search( seed ) call used in my miners.

Algorithm should operate like so:

Generate 2^26/8  SHA512 hashes in parallel and store them in memory (GPU can do this)
Use GPU sorting (OpenCL only please) to sort the birthdays.
Use the GPU to compare neighbors and check for a collision

If we can make this faster than a CPU then it will shutdown all the cloud servers.   Once again, Open CL only.
