The focus for crypto wallets tied with VISA/MasterCard bank cards was pretty much on Bitcoin (BTC), but now it has started moving to altcoins as well like in the case of Wirex adding support for Litecoin (LTC). Wirex was one of the companies that has relied on WaveCrest and as a result like many others their cards became invalid at the start of the year. Meanwhile the company has been working to start issuing new bank cards that are tied to crypto currencies and they have just announced that besides Bitcoin (BTC) they are already supporting Litecoin (LTC) with other altcoins also to be supported soon. Wirex has been resulting their services with the release of virtual debit cards and physical plastic cards should soon be available again as well.
The Wirex LTC wallet allows you to:
– Spend Litecoin by instantly converting into local currency like GBP, EUR or USD to spend with your free Wirex Visa Card.
– Buy Litecoin via your Wirex account, which can be funded by bank transfer, debit or credit card (high limits, instant purchase, easy account verification, fully secure).
– Deposit dozens of popular altcoins for instant exchange into Litecoin (cash out ICO profits with ease).
– Exchange Bitcoin for Litecoin or vice versa at any time (useful if you see positive or negative news and want to catch a sudden increase in BTC or LTC value).
– Withdraw Litecoin to any other LTC wallet (including free money transfers or making purchases with Litecoin.
– Or use Litecoin as a payment option as major brands make it available (starting soon based on industry rumours).

Our favorite AMD Radeon RX VEGA GPU miner for Cryptonight has been updated to version 1.0.0 and the new version brings support for new variations of the algorithm as well as some additional performance improvements. Prior to the latest version Cast XMR had support for CryptoNight, CryptoNight V7 and CryptoNight Heavy, the latest version also adds support for CryptoNight Lite, CryptoNightV7 Lite and CryptoNight Lite IPBC, so you are covered with pretty much all variations. There is also a new command line option --maxmem that can increase performance up to 3% by allocating the full memory of the video card, so you can experiment with that as well.
Cast XMR Supported CryptoNight Algorithms:
– CryptoNight:--algo=0
– CryptoNight V7:--algo=1
– CryptoNight Heavy:--algo=2
– CryptoNight Lite:--algo=3
– CryptoNightV7 Lite:--algo=4
– CryptoNight Lite IPBC:--algo=5
We are reminding you that Cast XMR is a closed source miner available only for Windows (64-bit) and that there is 1.5% developer fee included to support the further development of the software, so if you are not Ok with any of these you can go for an alternative miner solution. Cast XMR is still one of the fastest VEGA miners and the development track record justifies the dev fee in our opinion and you can of course also use the miner on other ADM Radeon RX GPUs with at least 4GB video memory.

It seems that Bitmain is not over with new releases of ASIC miners, this time however the release may be only for the Asian market (now available on the English website as well) in the form of the new Antminer B3 ASIC miner for Bytom (BTM). The new Bitmain Antminer B3 is supposed to offer 780 H/s mining hashrate with 360 Watts of power usage and cost about $2700 USD with shipments starting tomorrow for a limited number of units (2500 only). What is more interesting here is that Bytom (BTM) is just launching their main network later today and mining will be just starting, so having and ASIC miner ready for pretty much the start of a crypto coin is something new. Then again Bytom has listed Bitmain as one of their partners on the website of the project, so that may actually not be of a much surprise.
Update: The Bytom (BTM) main network has launched and the coin can be mined from within the Bytom wallet with CPU only for the moment, or by using any of the Bitmain B3 ASIC miners that are apparently already on the network, no GPU mining is possible for the moment as there are no AMD/Nvidia GPU miners currently available and with ASICs already available CPU mining might not be worth it and the same may go for GPU mining as well (depends on performance).
