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%.

The Latest CryptoDredge v0.22.0 Nvidia GPU Miner With Support for X16Rv2 As Well

2, Oct 2019

The RavenCoin (RVN) fork has been successfully executed and mining with GPUs is back once more with mining profitability of RVN the highest at the moment among GPU-mineable altcoins thanks to no significant change in the price. The hashrate is now about 5 times lower than before the fork, so most likely the presence of FPGAs and even maybe ASIC miners for the X16R algorithm is really significant. Anyway, apart from z-enemy and T-Rex miners for Nvidia there is a third option available now with X16Rv2 support. The new entry is the just released CryptoDredge v0.22.0 that now supports the X16Rv2 algorithm, like with other closed source Nvidia GPU miners, CryptoDredge also comes with a 1% dev fee for the X16RV2 algorithm. Our quick tests have shown that on GTX 1080 Ti the performance of CryptoDredge miner with X16Rv2 is not as high as on the current hashrate leader T-Rex… it is more like similar to that of z-enemy.

Are You Ready For The Ravencoin (RVN) Fork Tomorrow

30, Sep 2019

Tomorrow Ravencoin (RVN) will be forking at 16:00:00 UTC and the fork comes with a change from the current X16R to the new X16RV2 algorithm and you need to make sure you are ready for the switch. First off you need to make sure that you have the latest Raven Core wallet installed (if you do use a local wallet). Mining pools should be updated already or should make sure they are also ready for the switch of the algorithm before the fork occurs, so nothing to worry about that, just make sure that the mining ports and URLs will remain the same after the fork. You would of course also need to update your mining software, depending on the hardware you use, in order to be able to continue mining wit the next X16Rv2 algorithm after the fork occurs. There are already a couple of software miners that announced support for the X16Rv2, though not all of the ones with X16R support are ready for the new algorithm, below are listed the ones that already support X16Rv2 mining on AMD, Nvidia and CPUs.

Nvidia GPU miners with X16Rv2 support:
– z-enemy 2.2 Nvidia GPU miner (1% dev fee)
– T-Rex 0.14.4 Nvidia GPU miner (1% dev fee)

AMD GPU miners with X16Rv2 support:
– teamredminer v0.5.9 AMD GPU miner (2.5% dev fee)

CPU miners with X16Rv2 support:
– cpuminer-opt 3.9.8 CPU miner (free and opensource)
