Claymore's Dual Ethereum AMD+NVIDIA GPU Miner v15.0 (Windows/Linux)

[mandica]

Are people really gullible enough to think that if a dev included a trojan in his software he's going to admit it?  LOL I guess I really overestimate people.

Yeah guys you caught me, hahaha.  I included a trojan, LOL my bad sorry ok?

Well, I don't know why would claymore do that, considering there's a devfee in the miner and I guess it's far more profitable (and legit!) than a trojan/malware/whateverware

Claymore used some programming method to protect his miner. That is recognised as a virus. But it is not .

I know. I just pointed out the fact it would be counterproductive for him to add a trojan. Devfee's a much better way

The point I was trying to make above is that it's ridiculous to come to the guy you suspect is a thief and ask if he's a thief and expect an honest answer.

Someone should throw a running miner inside a VM to watch its behavior on the network though.  If this does contain a trojan and it is keylogging or stealing our wallet keys and passwords we should see some traffic to addresses that aren't the pool we're mining.  He packed the binary but that doesn't mean we can't look into it further.

Anyway, never ever mine from a machine where your wallet resides. This is true for any crypto currency

I think if there were a problem with the miner it would have come up by now.  A lot of mining software and wallets trigger false positives with virus software.  So far Claymore has not have any complaints from people using the software.

not to change the subject, but Claymore I have a feature request, and that is to fall back to failover if all the ETH shares are being rejected (hi dwarfpool). 

[cidman]

well i guess no one has any idea how to help me figure out my issue with this miner so ill just switch back to genoils on that full rig till the next update
i cant be restarting that rig 5 times a day and his doesnt have the issue

Ok, it will disconnect if number of shares >= 5 and invalid shares rate > 50%. But note that it will lose some time anyway because it has to wait for 5 shares.

great thanks a lot !  no problem for lost time, this is just in the event dwarfpool (for those on dwarf) rejects all shares for like...6 hours straight or something

cidman maybe I can help, try this:  -gser   this setting can improve stability on multi-GPU systems if miner hangs during startup. It serializes GPUs initalization routines. Use "-gser 1" to serailize some of routines and "-gser 2" to serialize all routines.
   Default value is "0" (no serialization, fast initialization)

Hey, Claymore. I've got some code that implements coinotron stratum protocol I added to open-ethereum-pool and have been testing my pool code with your miner. When I set -esm 2, on every new job I get

Code:

ETH: Outdated share found - skip

I assume this is because my pool has very low diff, so it hits a share before work gets changed, but it only happens in that mode, so just wondering if I am doing something wrong or if that's harmless.

[davembg]

Yeah Claymore, if you indeed wrote in a backdoor - I'm sure you'd tell us, RIGHT?
WTF - There is  %0 chance of risk abatement by asking the developer anything about this.

You are 100% correct.

I understand your work here has value, but, it's based on software that others have built.
At some point, you really should consider releasing the code.

You are wrong. I don't use any GPL code and I don't have to release sources. There are a few ETH miners, you can easily detect if a miner is based on original ethminer.

Or, address the problems of virus "confusion" like a typical software vendor.

Did you ever try that? I did. The only real option is to contact AV vendor and tell them about false alarm. And usually false alarms are from weak AV with no real support, they just ignore your messages.
It's impossible task. Especially for mining software that can be used in botnets with almost no changes.

This is why I refuse to use your miner, and don't promote it.

No problem. Some people use only free and open-source software like Linux. Some people pay for closed-source software like Windows. You always have a choice.

Thanks for the reply Claymore - good to know your opinions on this topic.

I am soon planning to start mining with 3 x 390x

[Dikaplok]

@claymore

is it possible having an option in the command to reboot the pc when suddenly no internet connection for a long time?

[sbob]

Hi Claymore, when do you plan to give us a new release?

[Claymore]

Hi Claymore, when do you plan to give us a new release?

In a few hours.

If you just want to mine Ethereum, the 390 is better than 390x as they have the same speed. It is also cheaper.

[spyshagg]

hello guys



How long does it take for the currency to hit my ethereumwallet.com  ?

its still at 0.0  after one hour.  The miner shows shares being found and accepted





thanks

[daupheus]

thank you for this miner 

for a dual 380x is it a good result :
41Mhs => Eth
610Mhs => DCR

?

thank you
