WildRig Multi 0.23.0 Beta AMD GPU Miner With KAWPOW and ProgPoW Support

9, May 2020

The latest WildRig Multi 0.23.0 Beta AMD GPU miner has added support for the the KAWPOW algorithm now used by RavenCoin (RVN) as well as ProgPoW used by Super Zero (SERO). The latest release also adds --benchmark option for ProgPoW algorithms (including KAWPOW) as well as added --benchmark-epoch option for estimated hashrate benchmark results for specific upcoming epoch number. The WildRig Multi is the third option for AMD GPU miners to mine the new KAWPOW algorithm and unfortunately is currently the slowest in our tests on AMD Radeon RX 580 8GB GPUs. The fastest one for AMD GPU miners currently seems to be nanominer followed closely by NBMiner. Still you might want to test and compare performance on your AMD GPUs to see what works best out of the three options as on different AMD GPUs there cold be difference in the hashrate with each of the miners.

The latest WildRig Multi is currently available for Windows, Ubuntu Linux and HiveOS as a closed source binary and with a 2% developer fee built-in by default, though it can be lowered to 1% using --donate-level=1. Only the wildkeccak algorithm is with fixed 2% dev fee with no possibility to be changed by the user using the command line parameter.

Update: The newer version 0.23.1 does bring a bit of a performance boost, but we are also seeing a lot of low difficulty share errors with it, so probably not quite there yet to compete with the alternatives! Also a good news is that the default dev fee has been lowered to 1%, so no need to use the extra command line option to do that manually anymore.

TT-Miner 5.0.0 Nvidia GPU Miner Removes the Development Fee

6, May 2020

The latest TT-Miner 5.0.0 comes with no development fee, officially, meaning that the software will no longer mine 1% of the time for the developer like it was doing up until this version. While support and bugfixes should still continue further miner development could be stopped apparently. The latest major release TT-Miner 4.0.0 has added support for KAWPOW mining and now with version 5.0.0 this becomes the second KAWPOW miner with no dev fee, just like the official kawpowminer and this is a bit of an advantage that you might want to consider over other KAWPOW miners that do have 1% or even 2% dev fee!

If you like TT-Miner you are of course welcome to donate some coins to the developer should you wish to support further miner development, official developer donation addresses listed below:

BTC: bc1q0jvewuzg860dj7f9a6988l4ml5dc9ddzlq9e9m
XZC: aP7pMvUSgvSqswGcNxf4bBBMJbwpUEEto4
ETH: 0xb1C3d505DD3e6C737939AC686649fD79350D6D0d
RVN: RDXzfnKVBKF9uLWTCC5ao7CzWSYmh62NHN

Do note that if you get a missing DLL error when trying to run the miner on Windows you may need to download the latest Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015, 2017 and 2019.

TT-Miner supports ProgPOW, KAWPOW, Ethash, UBQhash, MTP, Lyra2REv3, Epic, EagleSong and Kadena (Blake2S) algorithms on Nvidia GPUs and is available for Windows and Linux as pre-compiled binaries, a closed source miner with no developer fee for all of the supported algorithms since version 5.0.0.

T-Rex 0.15.3 Nvidia Miner With KAWPOW Support for RavenCoin (RVN)

3, May 2020

The latest T-Rex Nvidia GPU miner version 0.15.3 has introduced support for the new KAWPOW algorithm just as expect in time for the fork of RavenCoin (RVN) that is coming in just a few days – May 6th 2020 at 18:00:00 UTC. Aside from the new Kawpow support for the upcoming RVN fork, the latest T-Rex miner also adds supports for ProgPow and MTP-tcr algorithms.

Aside from T-Rex adding support for KAWPOW in the latest version, there are a few other alternatives available already – the official open-source kawpowminer, the latest TT-Miner, the latest NBMiner and the latest GMiner. The only one that is still missing support for KAWPOW is Z-Enemy, however enemy has already announced that there should be an update before the RVN fork and it will also support the new Ravencoin algorithm.

T-Rex is closed source Nvidia GPU miner available for both Linux and Windows operating systems. The miner comes in multiple versions supporting CUDA 9.1, CUDA 9.2 and CUDA 10.0. The miner has developer fee of 1% for all of the supported algorithms, only tensority has a higher dev fee of 3%.
