Equihash <144,5> is the new POW algorithm of BitcoinGold.
Main-Net is expected to fork in just a few days.

Funakoshi-Miner is a fast <144,5> solver.

Mining btczCoin through pool btcz.suprnova.cc is also supported.

Supported Nvidia cards:  GTX 1060 6GB, GTX 1070, GTX 1080, ...

so bitcoinGold is going to be asic & nicehash proof?

some questions that are bothering me.

i'm mining BTG.
on mining pool hub. the main guy left and things are not being updated. i wanna use your miner an i'm not sure when the fork happens if mining pool hub will work since the main site guy seems to not update anymore.

your saying your miner will work on mining pool hub, however they haven't done or announced anything themselves in regards to the btg fork.
should i go suprnova?

and

stratum+tls possible with your miner?

Funakoshi-Miner currently works on mining pool hub with current version of equihash. Just don't add the -144 arg.
If and when mining pool hub will switch to equihash <144,5> you will be able to run Funakoshi-Miner by adding the
-144 arg.

As far as I know suprnova is going to support <144,5> when BitcoingGold will fork.

Funakoshi-Miner automaticaly uses the ssl/tls port when available.

funakoshiMiner.exe -l btg.suprnova.cc:8866 -u user.3 -p x -144

This is my bat file but when I run the software it says port 8817 which won't work and I can't connect.  Whats the problem here?  Thanks,

1080ti benchmarks to compare performance against EWBF?

I'm getting the same problem.  Also switches to 8817.

you can mine 4 coins on  NIBIRUPOOL (https://Nibirupol.com) with fukanoshi miner and new asics-resistant algo 144_5


 XSG (https://xsg.nibirupool.com) -->   xsg.nibirupool.com:8888
 BTCZ (https://btcz.nibirupool.com) -->   btcz.nibirupool.com:8828
 LTZ (https://ltz.nibirupool.com) -->   ltz.nibirupool.com:8048
 SAFE (https://safe.nibirupool.com) -->   safe.nibirupool.com:8038

Release v3.5 of Funakoshi Cuda Miner is available.

Performance of EquiHash<144, 5> has been improved by 5%.

The -144 arg is optional (auto completed when connecting to BitcoinGold pools).

Command-Line args: --server, --port, --user, --pass, --algo 144_5
   are accepted as synonyms to
args: -l -u -p

--pers is not required (auto completed depending on mined coin).

On most pools there is no need to specify pool's port. The miner auto completes it
(depending on the pool's url). As an exception when connecting to miningpoolhub the
port number must be supplied, because it is used by miningpoolhub to select which alt
coin to mine.

there are one more coin is out for equihash 144_5 - Hepta coin
https://hepta.nibirupool.com/

you need to add --pers option for other coins like Safecoin, LitecoiZ, Hepta and probably another future forks.
atm pool reject shares from your miner on those forks

zel-eu.coinblockers.com not supported :( please add more pools
ver 4.2

Release v4.5 of Funakoshi-Miner supports it.
You will have to supply the following command
line-arguments:  --pers ZelProof --algo 144_5

Thanks for your fast updates :) Don`t forget to sleep :)
gtx 1060 6gb - 21 to 31 h/s need more stability

The equihash algo is statistical by nature.
Each job supplied by the pool has different number of sol/s within.
Thus, the sol/s are changing all the time.
To evaluate avg you need to run it a full day.

I have published release v4.6 which is even faster.

For 1060 3gb cards i get the failed to allocate memory error

Any chance to get it working on 3 gb cards?

I didn't find the way to make it run on 3 gb cards without loosing performance (yet).
Currently Funakoshi-Miner requires 4 gb gpu to run.
If and when I will succeed to make the miner run on 3 gb cards without loosing
performance I will publish a version and tell you.
