New ccminer skunk-krnlx Fork With Faster SkunkHash Performance

8, Aug 2017

There is a new ccminer skunk-krnlx fork (source) available that comes with improved SkunkHash-Raptor performance. The miner is open source and provides the same performance for mining Signatum (SIGT) – the altcoin that has introduced this new crypto mining algorithm. This new free and open source miner does come with a performance very similar to that of the fastest closed source miners for Nvidia GPUs that are available for sale, so you might want to give it a try.

There are no official binary releases available, only the source code, but we have for download a 32-bit Windows binary compiled with VS2013 and CUDA 8.0 that you can try if you are having trouble compiling the code yourself. AMD miners might want to check out the Prospector miner for better performance on Polaris GPUs, though this miner is only available as binaries and is not open source, so proceed with caution.

Signatum (SIGT) Crypto Coin With New SkunkHash-Raptor Algorithm

24, Jul 2017

We were feeling a bit nostalgic for the old times where a new altcoin with a fresh algorithm and a new miner will launch and we would just go and mine it. Signatum (SIGT) has just offered what we needed to feel nostalgia over the old mining times no more. It is a new coin with no premine, ICO, dev fee or any of these and it comes with a new algorithm and thus new miners to support it. It is a POW/POS coin, though POS with 5% annual will start after block 98500 and POW mining will end at block 100000. The initial block reward is 2500 SIGT, down to half after block 3000 then halving again after block 60000. The total PoW coins that will be mined are 137,500,000 with block time of 2 minutes, after that POS is 5% annual on staked coins. There are no big promises being made for big and bright future with this one, though there is a lot of user interest already and a lot of miners are jumping on board, so who knows…

There is a CPU miner available, though with the release of AMD GPU miner (forked sgminer) and Nvidia GPU miner (forked ccminer) there is not much point mining with CPU anymore. SIGT is already being traded on Cryptopia with more exchanges probably following soon with the user interest apparently growing for this new altcoin, so you might want to check it out and give it a try mining if you have some spare GPU power available. Even Mining Rig Rentals has added support for selling and buying SkunkHash-Raptor hashrate.
