The latest update 3.21 of the GMiner mining software brings a new interesting feature for everyone that might be currently mining Kaspa (KAS) and that is the ability to dual-mine Kaspa (KAS) + Zilliqa (ZIL), though you can also use another supported coin by the miner instead of KAS should you wish to. Previously ZIL mining could be easily combined with Ethash or ETChash coins only or you could also triple mine with KAS as well. Now, with the latest GMiner you can choose to mine KAS or another coin with different algorithm along with ZIL, when the time comes to mine Zilliqa the miner will switch briefly and then get back to mining Kaspa or the coin you are mining. This way you will be getting some extra profit without losing almost nothing of your regular mining hashrate for KAS, or RVN etc.
Below you can find an example command line for running GMiner on Windows on Nvidia GPUs for dual mining KAS + ZIL:
miner.exe --algo kheavyhash --server pool.eu.woolypooly.com:3112 --user KAS_WALLET.WORKER_ID --zilserver eu1-zil.shardpool.io:3333 --ziluser ZIL_WALLET.WORKER_ID --lock_cclock 1710 --lock_mclock 810 --lock_voltage 800
Make sure you replace KAS_WALLET, ZIL_WALLET and WORKER_ID in the example with your wallet and worker IDs, the example above also sets core and memory clocks and tries to lock the GPU voltage for low power KAS mining on RTX 3070. Unfortunately, it seems that there are some trouble properly setting the GPU voltage and as a result the power usage will be higher compared to running the same low power mining settings on lolMiner. So, currently there is a bit of a trade-off with GMiner and dual-mining KAS + ZIL – you get higher power usage in order to get to mine ZIL. You might want to wait a bit for the issue with GPU voltage setting to be resolved in order to get the same performance and power usage as with lolMiner mining Kaspa with extra Zilliqa profit as well, though you might still want to try other coins that are not so energy efficient together with ZIL dual mining.

Dynex (DNX) is said to be a next-generation platform for neuromorphic computing (computational model patterned on the human brain) based on a ground-breaking flexible blockchain protocol. It consists of participating PoUW miners that constitute a decentralised neuromorphic supercomputing network which is capable of performing computations at unprecedented speed and efficiency – even exceeding quantum computing. Dynex’s proprietary Proof-of-Useful-Work (PoUW) algorithm called DynexSolve enables each miner to perform Dynex Chip computations and in turn get rewarded with DNX coins and anyone that might be interested in taping that computational power to perform neuromorphic computing calculations would need to pay in DNX. A Dynex Chip is described as a neuromorphic chip design, based on ideal memristors. Such a chip cannot be built with current hardware (ideal memristor!) so it is being simulated with ODE integration. It turns out that the simulated circuit shows all desired features (long-range order, instantonic behavior, etc.), and is quite fast when simulated on enough GPUs. There’s a reference implementation on GitHub so everyone can try it.
Dynex is certainly interesting and different than most other crypto projects out there with the goal being not only using computational (mining) power for securing the blockchain network it uses, but trying to actually use that computational power provided by miners for creating a large and decentralized neuromorphic computing platform. The project is still in the works and there are some quirks and issues that get resolved in a timely manner, it is still quite new and more work is probably needed for its goal to be fully realized. Now is also the perfect time to join in early if you are interested.
Since Dynex uses its own custom DynexSolve algorithm you need to use a specially designed mining software that runs on your GPUs called DynexSolve with the current latest version being 2.2.1 (the one you need to use) that supports Nvidia CUDA as well as CPU mining, unfortunately AMD GPUs are not yet supported. The mining software simulates the so-called neuromorphic computing Dynex Chips and it seems to be more of a memory intensive than GPU intensive algorithm. Mining can be done on both Windows and Linux operating systems and it is a wise idea to keep an eye out at the projects Discord server for up-to-date development and any possible issues and fixes being applied. DNX can be mined on a number of mining pools such as mineradnow.space, newpool.pw or neuropool.net among others. If you are interested in trading Dynex coins, then you may want to look on TxBit the only crypto exchange that currently has DNX trading pairs listed.

Are you feeling adventurous today, how about joining in a crypto project early on and start mining some SkyDoge (SKYDOGE) coins now? SkyDoge is supposedly a decentralized social network platform built on a Layer 1 blockchain network including sidechains enabled that has been launched just a couple of days ago apparently and mining has just started using a dedicated crypto algorithm called SHAndwich256 (sha256 + sha512 + sha256 instead of sha256 + sha256).
At the time of posting this there have been just about 7000 blocks mined and the project uses 1 minute block time, so pretty fresh and risky. there are of course no exchanges available, so you will have to download and use the official SKY wallet to mine into for now. The total supply of SkyDOGE is 210 Billion with a 50000 SKYDOGE coins block reward, so yes, another one of those high number of coins projects we are seeing a lot lately.
If you are interested in mining SkyDoge (SKYDOGE) you can head on to the Rplant mining pool and make sure you are using the latest beta version of the WildRig Multi 0.35.3 beta GPU miner that supports the skydoge (SHAndwich256) algorithm for both AMD and Nvidia GPUs. The algorithm used by SkyDOGE is also GPU-intensive, so going for higher clock on the graphics processor results in better hashrate.
