It Is All About BTC, LTC, ETH, DOGE, KAS mining as well as other alternative crypto currencies
We have received some SkeinCoin (SKC) from a reader to give away for free to visitors of the blog that are interested in some free coins. The idea of course is to rise the interest in SkeinCoin a bit as apparently the coin needs it, so don’t miss your chance to get some free SKC coins. SkeinCoin (SKC) is a Skein-SHA2 alternative crypto coin that can be mined with both CPU and GPU and there is support for mining it with both a fork of cgminer and sgminer on AMD GPUs as well as with Nvidia GPUs using a more recent version of ccMiner.
So getting back to the SkeinCoin (SKC) giveaway, all you have to do to take part in it is to post your SKC wallet address in the comments below and you will get 80 SkeinCoins sent to you – that is the reward you will get if you mine 10 SKC blocks at the moment. Do note that since all of the coins will be sent manually to you it may take some time before your reward is received, but normally it should not take more than a few hours. Only one reward per user is allowed, so please do not abuse our giveaway – we have more than enough coins to give away, but we reserve the right to cancel the giveaway at any time we decide.
The giveaway of SKC (SkeinCoin) is now officially over, we have sent to users 1840 SKC in total.

Time for another update of the complete packages based on the Miner Control tool for Nvidia GeForce GT 750 Ti and AMD Radon R9 280x GPUs due to the latest developments in the mining world. The latest versions you can download from the links below include some updates and it removes the YAAMP pool support as it has become a part of NiceHashand currently redirects to their stratum servers. The latest updates also includes the most recent versions of SP-MOD’s ccMiner for Nvidia Maxwell as well as the sgminer fork with increased performance for Quark and Qubit with pre-compiled Binary Kernels for 280X. The two Miner Control tool packages are based on the latest fork of Miner Control from KBomba version 1.6.4.
To be ready to use the packages you just need to update the account settings for each pool to reflect your BTC payment address. Do note that the default configuration that we have set is mining from time to time for the author of the software (Miner Control) as a donation alternative, but you can change that setting should you wish to. The packages are ready to be used with either AMD Radeon R9 280X or Nvidia Geforce GTX 750 Ti cards, but you can also us the Nvidia package for other GPUs or more cards – what you may need to reflect however in the config file is the total hashrate and power usage. Since the AMD packages contains not only specific settings for AMD Radeon R9 280X, but also pre-compiled binary kernels specifically for that particular card if using it with other GPUs you will actually be getting lower hashrate, though n problem to use it with multiple 280X cards.
