A lot of people are pretty anal about getting 'hijacked. Here are some interesting bits.

1. Miners will have nothing on them (and you shouldn't have anything more then the bare minimum on a mining system) so there is nothing to compromise.

people are pretty anal about getting 'hijacked' - using still Windows as a miner OS, usually
they should really move to linux on USB stick then, long time ago...  (e.g. KopiemTu )

@EWBF can you find out why does your miner not connect to http://www.luckpool.org/#!/coin/ZEC ? All other miners work ok.

In next release i fix support for some pools.
And no, pools not coded into miner except devfee pool.

zclassic.pool.mn working

Pool mainpage coming soon-..seen this for 2 month now..
how this pool works?

Could you implement one more option, for logging:

--log filename

e.g --log /tmp/log.txt

?

and some simple shares counter in printout

1. Miners will have nothing on them (and you shouldn't have anything more then the bare minimum on a mining system) so there is nothing to compromise.

2. If your earnings are being 'hijacked' you'll notice it in your global earnings. He could actually be lieing about the 2% and it could be closer to 5% and that would be more likely then it randomly mining whatever he wants. Matter of a fact that could be slipped into the miner and there would be very little to prove it as he can easily mask the 'dev time'. If you think you can easily notice the difference between 2% and 4% pool side you'd be wrong. Depending on the pool, pool luck, and if the pool is skimming (which isn't uncommon with some pools) it's practically invisible.


I'd be more worried about shit pools then ultra vetting a miner. Not saying looking out for a virus is a bad... always look for a virus, just some people go way too overboard with things.

I'm running the nvidia miner on my gaming rig so I'm very paranoid. My mining rig is filled with RX 470s and they're the ones I'm not worried about since they run on the bare minimum. I'm actually more worried about trojans, keyloggers,remote login stuff since these are the ones I can't actually verify and monitor. The hijack thing you're referring to can easily be verified by anyone monitoring their miner's stats from their PC and on the pool.

You don't understand how pools work and there is no way of 'verifying' the difference between 2% and 4%. That's within error rate of pools based on luck. There are very few pools that pay you exactly what you should be getting and that can fluctuate quite a bit. Pool luck, efficiency (not talking about the efficiency stat rather connection, hardware and coding), and skimming can change all of that. I'm guessing you're comparing it against whattomine... Even that has error.

There is a lot more that goes into mining then just shooting your hashrate at a pool and it always gives you what you think you should be making.

Yeah, nix doesn't get viruses and can't be insecure, right? Just like Macs. Obscurity doesn't mean something is more secure, it just means people are less likely to target it.

A USB stick can become infected as well. Either that or it can't be changed and would be a PITA to mine off of and adjust all the time.

Nice hash support promised 320sol for 1070 at stock tomorrow ......

Let the WAR began!  

[FUD]

Version 0.0.4b.

New zcash cuda miner. windows x64
Writen for pascal gpus but works on cards with at least 1Gb memory, and Compute Capability 3 and higher.
Expected speed on stock settings.
gtx 1060 - 170 h/s
gtx 1070 - 250 h/s
Unfortunately i do not have older cards to tests.
Miner contain dev fee 2%.
I will support a miner if people will be interested in it.
Sorry for my bad english  

Version 0.0.4b
Completely new watchdog system.
Fixed a bug in the solver
Binary linux version compiled and tested in debian.

Those commands are inserted in the bat file, above the miner executable statement.

Zcash mining has brouhht all the newbs out.

setx works with amd opencl. not nvidia cuda which this miner is.

New version plus linux. Info in first post.
Stock clocks:

 Why do I get the feeling that the first card is a 1080, not a 1070?

 I've seen Gigabyte raise the TDP on at least one of their models of 1070, but nowhere near THAT high.

 I've also seen NVidia SMI get confused and report wrong model number for at least one card in my 950/960 mixed rig on occasion.

I think you need to optimize if you want to keep the miners

Okay, as promised. 320 with stock GTX 1070 is reached. Power usage at wall ~ 140 W.

GTX 1060 6G gets 225 at 100 W.
GTX 1060 3G gets 210 at 95 W.

Testing other Pascal cards now...

not work this commande

my gpu work 100%  with this commande  :

 miner --server zec-eu1.nanopool.org --user t1RdwuMkXyyFh5cQ2kPqeLrxb1DGuRoyeTE.NvidiaEWBF --pass z --port 6666


please  how i can  make intensiter  " i "  to make it use 50%

"and you shouldn't have anything more then the bare minimum on a mining system" - and 16GB USB is natural "incentive" (size and speed) to NOT install anything except necessary,
it's easier to break this rule, when you have system on hard drive


USB sticks have read-only switches, you may utilize it or start OS from image, with logs in RAM
and reboot is one-minute sweep for recovering sure configuration

do it with Windows...

it may be just the matter of newer BIOS, after updating it - I have now 225W on 1070:

root@kopiemtu:~# nvidia-smi -pl 70
Provided power limit 70.00 W is not a valid power limit which should be between 75.00 W and 225.00 W for GPU 0000:01:00.0

Compiled for comute 2.0 but i have not tested it.
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B9EPp8NdigFiMDN6bUhPYTNOcTg

I have some fake gt 730 which support only compute 2.1 and this version is working fine, giving 6-7sol/s (4sol/s with nheqminer).

My problem is that while eqm miner is running, ewbf cant connect to nicehash pool. When i turn off eqm, wait until ewbf connects and starts mining then i can start eqm without any problems.
And second problem is with starting ewbf it works but i have to try 4-5 times before it connects and starts minig. I am behind restrictive firewall which filters everything except ports 53/80. I have to setup tunel before i can connect to nicehash pool, and dont know if ewbf trys to connect to some other pool because then i have to create tunnel for such connection.
