Currently there is only a CUDA implementation. Implement the algorithm in OpenCL targeting AMD GPU's.

Does it make sense? OpenCL clones already exist and they are noticeable slower.

@ogronome An OpenCL implementation would allow people with AMD cards to use BitCrack. I believe I can make the performance almost comparable.

You're the boss! :D

By the way, are you sure there is no room for optimization with uncompressed keys?
When turning -u flag you get exactly half of performance.
But dude, who worked on vanitygen, said that it is not double work, but much-much less.
Actually, on slow card like gtx1050 speed difference was noticeable, but on gtx1060 and higher only few percent.

I talk about vanitygen fork made by ndv.

Uncompressed addresses are for those who is bad on arithmetic and the theory of probability . They hope to find Satoshi's lost millions :D

Yeah, I would like to see a BitCrack for AMD.
