If you are a miner that just wants to take a good profit if/while the Karlsen (KLS) craziness continues you might want to check out our quick tutorial on how to maximize your mining profit dual mining Karlsen (KLS) and Zilliqa (ZIL) with the latest Rigel miner 1.10.0 (Nvidia only) along with utilizing the Unmineable mining pool to autoconvert the mined KLS to Bitcoin (BTC) or KAS or any other of the supported crypto coins. This way you don’t have to rely on a local console Karlsen wallet or have to deal with exchanges to sell the mined coins. It is very similar to how NiceHash works, but NiceHash has not yet listed KLS, so there is no need to wait for them and you can act now. Apart from the Rigel miner, the latest GMiner (Nvidia only) has also added support for Karlsen and ZIL dual mining, and BzMiner, lolMiner and SRBMiner-Multi do support Karlsen only. We like the performance and ease of use of the Rigel miner and if you have used it for mining KAS on GPUs previously, then it is very easy to switch your config to mine Karlsen by changing the algorithm and the wallet address to a Karlsen one.
Here is command line example to get you started:
rigel -a karlsenhash+zil ^
-o [1]stratum+ssl://karlsenhash-eu.unmineable.com:4444 -u [1]BTC:WALLET_ADDRESS ^
-o [2]stratum+tcp://eu.crazypool.org:5005 -u [2]ZIL_WALLET_ADDRESS ^
-w WORKER_ID --log-file logs/miner.log --no-strict-ssl ^
--cclock 250 ^
--lock-cclock [1]1750 --lock-mclock [1]807 ^
--lock-cclock [2]1050 --mclock [2]1000
The above example is ready to be used and tweaked on RTX 3070 or similar GPUs, it uses the Unminable service with Bitcoin payouts (make sure you set your address) and Crazypool for ZIL mining (make sure you set your address), then also set your WORKER_ID as well. Just like KAS, Karlsen does not need much memory, so you can lower the clock to the minimum and keep the GPU clock higher utilizing the maximum offset your cards can sustain for reduced power usage.
You can check your mining status at:
For Unmineable: https://unmineable.com/coins/BTC/address/YOUR_BTC_WALLET_ADDRESS
For Crazypool: https://zil.crazypool.org/#/account/YOUR_ZIL_WALLET_ADDRESS
Make sure you set your mining wallet addresses in both of the above URLs in order to be able to see your own stats!

Another update from Doctor83 for his SRBMiner-Multi mining software to version 2.3.9, after the recent mandatory update 2.3.8 for Dynex miners a new bugfix release is available that fixes some issues with invalid shares that was present in the 2.3.8 update as well as brings performance improvement for some GPUs. Furthermore the new release also brings down the development fee to 2% for DNX mining and if you are dual-mining DNX with ZIL (Zilliqa has %0) you get some extra profit from that as well with no extra cast. There are apparently some other fixes and improvements, but the focus is mostly towards getting better Dynex mining experience and a bit of a performance boost, at least to some users…
A quick test of the new SRBMiner-Multi 2.3.9 release shows pretty good results, not only that the higher hashrate from the early 2.3.7 version is back on for Nvidia users (at least the 3000 series), but you get something a bit more as an extra than you should’ve gotten with the older release. The performance drop that came with 2.3.8 is now not available anymore, with Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070 you should be back at the same level as with 2.3.7 in terms of hashrate or even a slightly higher. But miners with RTX 3080 and RTX 3080 would be happier as these GPUs do get an extra boost as well (3-5% average) and that one should be higher than on the 3070s, so they are quite a bit faster than with 2.3.7. And let us not forget about the 0.5% reduction in DNX mining dev fee, so definitely worth upgrading to the new release as soon as possible in order to take advantage of all of the improvements.

If you are mining Dynex (DNX) with the SRBMiner-MULTI v2.3.7 miner especially if dual mining DNX and ZIL you should upgrade to the just released version 2.3.8 as it implements important fixes regarding Dynex mining. It is a mandatory upgrade for Dynex miners as apparently the latest performance optimizations in version 2.3.7 have apparently resulted in returning some invalid pouw solutions and while the new version resolves the problem it also brings down the hashrate a bit as a result according to the miner’s developer. The update to SRBMiner-MULTI v2.3.8 is mandatory as older versions will stop working in a few days and you need to update if you want to continue to be able to mine DNX!
According to Doktor83, the developer of the mining software, NVIDIA GPU’s got the biggest hit in term of hashrate and mining performance should decrease on most of the supported GPU’s, except on AMD RDNA2 GPUs which supposedly got an increase in hashrate from the new code. Our own initial observations do show that for example RTX 3070 performance goes down by about 5%, but RTX 3080’s performance actually goes slightly up with about 2% and RTX 3090 goes down by about 1%. So, while it is mandatory to upgrade if you are using the miner to mine Dynex, depending on your GPU type you might get mixed results in terms of the change in hashrate after the upgrade.
