The latest SRBMiner-MULTI CPU and AMD GPU Miner version 0.4.5 adds support for the RandomX-based RandomEpic algorithm used by the Epic Cash (EPIC) crypto project for both solo and pool mining. There are also some performance improvements for the RandomX algorithm for CPUs as well as for Ethash and Ubqhash on AMD VEGA GPUs. You also get a number of fixes and new features, the full changelog is included below:
SRBMiner-MULTI CPU & AMD GPU Miner 0.4.5 changelog:
– Added ‘randomepic’ algorithm (EpicCash RandomX) solo/pool
– ‘ethash’ and ‘ubqhash’ algorithm faster ~1.5% on Vega
– ‘RandomX’ algorithm improvements
– Fixed allocation of ‘RandomX’ dataset for 1GB pages (--randomx-use-1gb-pagesparameter)
– Fixed an issue with MSR tweaks not being applied correctly
– Lowered ‘minotaur’ algorithm devfee to 2%
– Fixed crashing of ‘minotaur’ algorithm on AVX2 capable cpus
– ‘--send-stales‘ is now set per pool, it accepts true/false. Default is true.
– ‘send_stales’ parameter added to pools config file too
– ‘–gpu-intensity’ option can now be used in combination with auto gpu setup in cmd
– Improved gpu watchdog
– Added temporary parameter ‘--cnpool-bbc-fix‘ which disables workers if job diff >= 50
– Minor bug fixes
SRBMiner-MULTI Miner is a closed source miner available for Linux and Windows, supporting CPU mining algorithms as well as some AMD GPU ones, though we mostly use it for processor mining. The miner has a built-in developer fee of 2.50% for cryptonight_bbc, 2.00% for bl2bsha3 and minotaur, no fee for blake2b and yespowerurx and 0.85% for all others that are supported.

The XMR-STAK-RX RandomX miner has been updated to version 1.0.5 bringing support for two crypto projects that use a variation of the RandomX CPU mining algorithm – Kevacoin (KEVA) and Safex Cash (SFX). Kevacoin (KEVA) uses the RandomKEVA and Safex Cash (SFX) uses the RandomSFX algorithms respectively, though both are based on the RandomX algorithm as a base and are doing better performance wise on recent AMD Ryzen CPUs than on Intel processors. Alternative miners with support for RandomX and the RandomKEVA RandomSFX are SRBMiner-MULTI and XMRig, though have in mind that the XMR-STAK-RX miner does not have a development fee like those two others. Does the lack of a dev fee in the XMR-STAK-RX RandomX CPU miner make it a better choice, well you should compare what performance you are getting on your own hardware for the algorithm you are mining.

Dynastycoin (DCY) is Another RandomX Crypto Project
10, May 2020
Dynastycoin (DCY) is another crypto project that has forked to RandomX, initially started a couple of years ago and targeted towards Italian crypto users. Originally a CryptoNight coin when project was conceived, Dynastycoin (DCY) has apparently forked to RandomX near the end of last year around the time Monero has switched to the new algorithm as well. The fact that the project has been targeted towards a specific user base has resulted in limited popularity among non-Italian users. One of the reasons that we have discovered the project just recently as well, so if you are looking for alternative RandomX-based crypto coins you might want to check the coin out. The project hovers around the 1000th place on CoinMarketCap, however the daily volume seems really low as the coin is listed on just a few some smaller crypto exchanges and apparently trading users that are into DCY are now very active.
We remind you that mining RandomX is done mainly on CPUs, there are GPU miners available, but performance is very low compared to CPU mining as the algorithm is designed to be CPU friendly. Owners of AMD’s latest generation Ryzen processors have performance advantage over Intel CPUs as far as RandomX is concerned. Other than that the more CPU cores you have, the better performance you should expect to get with RandomX mining.
