New T-Rex 0.6.3 Nvidia GPU Miner For Windows and Linux

2, Sep 2018

Another update from the T-rex miner with the latest version 0.6.3 bringing support for some more new mining algorithms as well as performance improvements for a number of already supported ones. The new algorithms that got added in the latest version are Balloon, Polytimos and Skunk. The biggest performance improvement of 3-5% in terms of performance goes for Renesis and PHI, while Bitcore, C11, Sonoa, X16r/s and X17 are also getting a few percent extra hashrate. If you are mining an altcoin with any of the newly added algorithms or already using the T-Rex miner for any of the alread supported ones you will probably want to go to the latest version. Do have in mind that T-Rex is a closed source miner and that there is 1% development fee built-in and you need to have a recent video driver installed as the binaries for both Linux and Windows are compiled for CUDA 9.1/9.2.

New T-Rex 0.6.1 Nvidia GPU Miner For Windows and Linux

21, Aug 2018

The T-Rex miner is slowly becoming a more popular solution for mining new coins thanks to the number of supported algorithms and the good performance and usability it offers. The latest version 0.6.1 adds two more new algorithms – Bitcore and Sonoa as well as some slight improvements to performance in all algorithms except Lyra2z. There is also added extra shares submit functionality to reduce the number of rejects on pool side (both resulting in increased poolside hashrate) along with a number of fixes and new features to further improve the software. If you are using it already to mine an algorithm that T-rex 0.6.1 supports you should give it a try. Our usual reminder that T-Rex is a closed source miner and that there is 1% development fee built-in and you need to have a recent video driver installed as the binaries for both Linux and Windows are compiled for CUDA 9.1/9.2.

Get Free Crypto Coins if You Own Bitcoins (BTC)

24, Jul 2017

Do you know that there are some crypto coins that are doing airdrops to owners of Bitcoin? This means that if you are holding BTC in a wallet that allows you to sign messages (local or online one) you can get free money in the form of crypto coins. Below are some of these coins that send to you an amount of their tokens based on how much Bitcoin you have in your wallet, there could be some more, so if you know of some other one that is missing please point to it in the comments below. A word of warning though, you need to be careful with such coins and more specifically what they ask you for in the form of confirmation you are the owner of a given BTC wallet. Signing a message or doing a micro transaction from a Bitcoin wallet is fine as confirmation, but if they ask for a private key or wallet file or some sensitive data like that, then just avoid them!

Bitcore (BTX)
Bitcore made a Snapshot of the Bitcoin Network at Blockheight 463604 and captured every Wallet with a Balance bigger than 0.01 BTC, all wallets containing BTC at that point can claim free BTX coins by signing a message from your wallet (exchanges are not supported). Furthermore after you claim your free coins if your wallet has at least 10 BTX you will receive a 3% bonus payment on a weekly basis.

Byteball (GBYTE)
With Bytecall for every 16 BTC you receive 1 GB (1 gigabyte = 1 billion bytes), furthermore for every 5 GB you receive additional 1 GB. To prove your Bitcoin wallet balances you need to install the Byteball wallet and chat with the Transition Bot (you find it in the Bot Store in the wallet). The bot will help you link your Bitcoin and Byteball addresses by making a micropayment or signing a message. The next (8th) airdrop round is scheduled for the full moon of August (Aug 7, 2017 at 18:10 UTC).

Stellar Lumens (XLM)
The current round of XLM giveaway will be for up to 16 BILLION Lumens to Bitcoin holders or 16% of the initial Lumens. On June 27th, 2017 the next airdrop of Lumens will be made available to any Bitcoin holder who wants them, including those that received Lumens during the first giveaway round. Lumens will be available for exchanges that support the giveaway as well as for users with their own Bitcoin wallets. The snapshot of the Bitcoin blockchain will be taken on June 26, 2017 and the Lumen distribution will be held on the next day with 974.957961 XLM per Bitcoin owned in wallet. Participating exchanges for the moment include: Kraken, BTC38, Deribit, Yuanbao, NaoBTC and Bit-Z.
