The CryptoDredge miner has started as a faster alternative for Nvidia miners for the Lyra2REv2 algorithm, but since then it has been evolving into a multi-functional miner that supports more algorithms and provides good performance in them as well. The latest version of CryptoDredge brings performance improvements in a few algorithms and also support for the Tribus crypto algorithm. You can expect to get around 15-30% faster hashrate in Allium and Phi2 and about 18-35% faster performance in Lyra2z with the version 0.8.0, depending on your GPUs. Do note that as a result of the increased performance the energy consumption might also increase, so if your GPUs get hotter just decrease the TDP limit a bit. Also you might need to update the video drivers to the latest release if you are using an older version. We are reminding you that CryptoDredge is a closed source miner that comes with 1% built-in developer fee, so there is no source code and only binary releases available for both Windows and Linux.

The latest OpenBazaar version 2.2.2 released brings improved cryptocurrency trading features to the users of the free online marketplace with no fees and restriction that uses cryptocurrencies for payments. The most significant expansion is the number of crypto coins that can be bought and sold on the platform, previously there were about 60 available. Now there is price data from CoinMarketCap and there are more than 1500 coins you can trade on OpenBazaar. If you want to see if a specific coin is available, download OpenBazaar and start the process of creating a cryptocurrency listing and you will see the full list of coins in a dropdown menu. The best thing is that there are no fees to pay and no accounts to sign up for. It’s a direct swap of cryptocurrencies between you and the other party, and if you choose a moderated Bitcode Method and payment (highly recommended) then there’s a third party available in case of dispute.

The latest version also brings the ability for users offering to trade coins to mark up or discount their price. Instead of only being able to offer a trade at market price, you can choose to add a markup, which will automatically increase the price to the buyer based on the percentage they choose. You can of course also choose to offer a discount from regular market price and make your offer even more attractive. The software constantly is updating the market price of the cryptocurrencies involved in the trade, and will add the markup or discount at the moment the trade happens.

The latest version 6.0 of the NebuTech BTMiner Nvidia GPU miner for mining Bytom (BTM) is available with some interesting and useful improvements along with a slight performance increase, so you might want to check it out and update if you are using an older version. Among the new features probably the most useful one for most people is the additional GPU status report giving you information about power usage, fan speed, core clock, core utilization. As far as performance improvements go, there is a slight bump in the hashrate with about 2-3% on some mining rigs (depending on the type of GPUs you have), we are seeing a bit of improvement on a GTX 1080 Ti mining rig.

NebuTech BTMiner 6.0 Changelog:
– Add API for status query.
– Add dummy web monitor.
– Add more GPU status report: power usage, core clock, core utilization
– Low-level parameter adjustment, improve 2-3% hashrate on some mining rigs.
