A couple of days ago the z-enemy 2.5 miner was released as an updated version that introduced support for the KAWPOW algorithm that Ravencoin (RVN) has forked a couple of days ago. The z-enemy miner was not the first to support KAWPOW and was not the fastest as we were kind of used to often see when RVN was using the older X16 algorithm. It is good to see that more work has been put to the miner and the latest z-enemy 2.6.1 is right on rack to regain its fame from the good old days of Ravencoin mining when it was our preferred choice for a X16 miner.

The latest updates of the z-enemy regarding KAWPOW support bring faster initialization on multi-gpu rigs, performance improvements of a few percent, smoother gpu/power load and higher default intensity value increased from 20 to 21 for GTX 1070/1080 series as well as some miscellaneous improvements in the miner interface and general features. As far as performance is concerned, we definetly see an improvement, though still a bit more hashrate boost might be required for the miner to reclaim its top performance place.

The latest z-enemy version 2.6.1 is available for Nvidia CUDA 9.1, 9.2, 10.0 and 10.1 for 64-bit Windows versions and Linux. Make sure that you have the respective recent video driver version installed for the CUDA version you want to use – 388+ for 9.1, 397+ for 9.2 and 411 or newer for CUDA 10.0 or the latest ones for CUDA 10.1. We remind you that the z-enemy is a closed source miner software, is available only as a binary release, supports only Nvidia GPUs and it also contains a 1% developer fee built-in to support further software development.

With the Ravencoin (RVN) fork to KAWPOW right around the corner with less than half a day left here is the updated z-enemy 2.5 miner that also adds support for the new ProgPoW-based algorithm. The KAWPOW mining performance that the new z-enemy miner offers seems to be pretty much the same as what we are seeing from the other already available KAWPOW miners with small variation. Like most other miners z-enemy supports only Nvidia GPUs and currently there is only release of the miner available to Windows users. The only KAWPOW miner that supports AMD GPUs at the moment is NBMiner.

The latest z-enemy version 2.5 is available for Nvidia CUDA 9.1, 9.2, 10.0 and 10.1 for 64-bit Windows versions (no Linux release available for now). Make sure that you have the respective recent video driver version installed for the CUDA version you want to use – 388+ for 9.1, 397+ for 9.2 and 411 or newer for CUDA 10.0 or the latest ones for CUDA 10.1.

With the Ravencoin (RVN) fork to X16Rv2 right around the corner already we are starting to see updates to popular mining software adding support for the new algorithm the coin will be switching to. It has been a while since we have seen an update for the z-enemy miner (one of the most popular choices for X16R mining on Nvidia GPUs in the past), but here it is with the latest version 2.2 adding support for the X16Rv2 algorithm. The latest version also adds support for secure stratum+ssl connections and comes with some fixes as well regarding a GPU data error in JSON API and a PHI2 bug on CUDA 10.1.

The latest z-enemy version 2.2 is available for Nvidia CUDA 9.1, 9.2, 10.0 and 10.1 for 64-bit Windows versions as well as CUDA 9.1, CUDA 9.2 and CUDA 10 binaries for Linux (HiveOS, PiMP OS, EthOS & Ubuntu). Make sure that you have the respective recent video driver version installed for the CUDA version you want to use – 388+ for 9.1, 397+ for 9.2 and 411+ for CUDA 10.0 or the latest ones for CUDA 10.1.
