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

[Stevross]

That's how the Dev fee works. Claymore replaces your wallet with his and mines for 36 seconds every hour. You should have asked Dwarfpool the time and duration of when the wallets were switched and compared it to the miner logs.

I know that is how the DEV fee works, However that is not the case as Claymore does not mine at 80mh's when he could mine at my full speed, Also when It is mining at that speed in the logs its not the DEV fee mining and the miner stops, then starts the DEV fee with his wallet.

Incorrect. Miner creates second connection to the pool for devfee.

I have been getting detection of a virus backdoor in your software after installation.
Trojan:Win32/CoinMiner!bit.
my hashrate has been jumping up and down so i contacted dwarfpool , They stated analysis has shown that my wallet has been changing to another in a backdoor in your mining software.
i only mine ETH and I have not applied the no DEV fee option.
Is there something we should know?

Please read first post of this thread. It will tell you about antiviruses alarms. Also learn about "-mport" option. Also make sure that you use recent version of the miner and downloaded the miner from the links from OP only.
If you still sure that my miner has backdoors/viruses - drop this miner asap and use some different miner that you like more.

PS. Here is my related message https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1433925.msg28540417#msg28540417
Another reason is downloading miner from suspicious sources or using "patched/cracked" files or some kind of "nodevfee" software. Most people who create it want to get some profit so be ready for surprises.

Thanks For your help Claymore.
I was warned about the security issues in the 10.5 I was using at the time.
I wanted to know if possible someone cold take some hashrate or it is a fault on Dwarfpools side?
I'm now using ver11 with ETH-proxy server and there seems do be improvement. I have tried Ethminer but yours has a better hash rate.
keep up the good work and stay on top of the vulnerabilities and I will also be stoping the remote port,
Cheers.

I'm in touch with most popular pools and we discuss security issues sometimes. Also in many cases I get private reports about vulnerabilities and release new version before they become public.
There are several ways to get problems:
1. Using miner that was downloaded from suspicious source.
2. Using some kind of "nodevfee" tools.
3. Exposing ports for remote management (see my link in previous message) which allows to replace "config.txt" file remotely.
4. Bad guys can even redirect IP of your pool to own pool in some cases, for example https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BGP_hijacking

@Stevross, Are you on the same problem as Kgminer? you are not using the correct pool are you trying to do solo mining without pools?

[Vann]

That's how the Dev fee works. Claymore replaces your wallet with his and mines for 36 seconds every hour. You should have asked Dwarfpool the time and duration of when the wallets were switched and compared it to the miner logs.

I know that is how the DEV fee works, However that is not the case as Claymore does not mine at 80mh's when he could mine at my full speed, Also when It is mining at that speed in the logs its not the DEV fee mining and the miner stops, then starts the DEV fee with his wallet.

The speed reported on the pool is also a calculated speed based on the frequency of the valid shares you submit, not the hash rate reported in the miner. It varies depending on share difficulty, stale shares, invalid shares and your latency to the pool. Sometimes it's lower or higher than your reported hash rate. On average it should be close to your reported hash rate.

Are you on the same problem as Kgminer? sorry no Idea. As for the http It would not connect to ETHproxy without it for some reason.and the speed seems to have improved a bit. as for the Allpols I was not sure what to specify. Cheers.

Dwarfpool recommended me connecting through  there ETH-proxy server.  But for some reason I could only use HTTP.

OK, I am confused: you show commands that look like they are stored in a CONFIG.TXT parameter file, but then you show what appears to be a command-line with parameters.

You can't have both: if there are parameters on the command-line, the CONFIG.TXT file is ignored / not used.  Since "-etht 200" is the default, adding it in CONFIG.TXT or on the command-line just adds one more step to the preparation phase.  Why are you asking it to use "qtminer" mode (-esm 1)?

I think the main problem is that you appear to be shooting for a solo mining configuration, as far as I can tell?  You don't show anything about a process running on your own port 8080 - which normally would be a web-based protocol.  Whassup?

[Bigdrago]

Doesnt Nicehash support -eworker? So I can assign a rigname.

I found using Claymore directly mining to nicehash more stable than using nicehash.

-esm 1" option to enable "qtminer" mode, in this mode pool will display additional information about shares (accepted/rejected), for example:accepted/rejected), for example:

GPU 6 and 8 gets the message:

"GPU XX got incorrect share. If you see this warning often, make sure you did not overclock it too much!"

I have removed OC and running stock voltages.
The 13 cards are all the same and have the same memory. Used PBE last week.

What may cause this?

After removing overclocking, you still get this error for both - or one?  What are the cards and what's the base clock (and what you were using for OC)??

Do you make some kind of intelligent checkpoint at the one hour point?  (59 minutes and whatever seconds, maybe?)  I see an inordinate amount of logfiles that are precisely 59:xx long with no apparent reason for the exit.

Hello guys,

Can someone help with keccak config? I just can't make it work.
Dualmining with decred / blake2s / pasc works perfect.
With keccak I always receive "authorization failed" . I'm 100% sure that the username/password are valid ( same setup as for decred on suprnova ) and still doesn't work.
I did try to create accounts on different pools, always the same.
I have no clue what I'm doing wrong or what's the issue.
I'm using epools.txt and dpools.txt for my pools, and start.bat to start the miner .
epools.txt: POOL: eu1-etc.ethermine.org:4444, WALLET: 0x72*******************.rig5, PSW: x, ESM: 0, ALLPOOLS: 1
dpools.txt POOL: hub.miningpoolhub.com:20461, PSW: ******, WORKER: *****.rig5, ESM: 0, ALLPOOLS: 1

The -dcoin keccak it's set in start.bat

Same config for decred works, for keccak no.

Thanks.

Solved
Gpu#0 is in real life gpu#1. Had to edit #7 and #9 OC settings.

Another problem. I accidentally kicked the rigg so that some gpu loosened, the rig restarted.
When I start claymore now it seems likt only OC is applied to GPU#0 30.x Mh/s. The other 12 if running stock 24.9 (memstrap)

Any idea?

Connecting through Windows remote desktop.
SOLVED: DDU drivers now and connected a display. I think the display did it. Saw readme file mention rdp not working.

Hey all, i have 4 x Rx570 Armor, how many Verge coins you mine one day with one GPU?

[munteanu210]

Hi everyone,

I've been using Claymore's Dual miner since July 2017, and I'm a happy miner. I've been mining Ethereum + Decred using 8 rigs totaling 64 video cards (GTX 1070 FFW2 Hybrid), and I am thinkinng about switching to Ethereum + SiaCoin in the next days. What altcoins would you recommend mining when Ethereum becomes too hard to mine?
