minerstat Credits

We are introducing new service to minerstat: Outage compensation

For every full-hour that your workers are not mining due to unexpected power failure or flood, or even when you are carrying out scheduled maintenance activities, minerstat will partially compensate your offline subscription time with minerstat Credits.

Service is automatic and therefore no further action is required from your end as all added workers on paid (and customers') accounts are eligible for the compensation.

msOS Miner Update
 trex v0.21.2
 gminer v2.60

Windows Miner Update
 trex v0.21.2
 gminer v2.60

trex: Resolved High CPU usage, low poolside hashrate on Autolykos2 algorithm. Windows-specific crash and bug fixes.
gminer: Fixed support RX6700/6800/6900 under msOS. Disable computer sleeping while mining under Windows. Improved compatibility with minerstat. Now showing shares, efficiency per GPU and data more precisely.

msOS Update
Improved network upload/download speed test method and latency check with Diagnostics.

msOS Miner Update
 lolminer v1.31

Windows Miner Update
 lolminer v1.31

lolminer: Slightly adjusted parameters for RTX 3060 (LHR V1) semi-unlock to be more resilient over different configurations. Re-Worked GPU detection mechanism fixing the bug that miner fails to start up on some systems without any error message.

Outage compensation
Compensation time lowered from minimum of 6 entries to minimum of 2 entries within last full hour, so now you can get the benefit even for shorter outages.

msOS Miner Update
 nanominer v3.3.7
 miniz v1.8y3

Windows Miner Update
 nanominer v3.3.7
 miniz v1.8y3

nanominer: Improved network stability
miniz: Added support for Ethash mining locked GPUs. Use 461.40 (Windows) or 460.39 (msOS) drivers for best performance. Up to 8% improvement for Equihash 150,5 algorithm on RTX30 series. Added --mt-auto, --mt-dump, and --mt options to adjust memory timings on msOS.

msOS Miner Update
 trex v0.21.3

Windows Miner Update
 trex v0.21.3

trex: Resolved low poolside hashrate when mining ERGO on Nanopool.

[JFoxOne]

Diagnostic
Added Security exposure check for ports 22 (SSH) and 4200 (Web console), so you can check if you rig or a device on your public IP is reachable remotely or not.

Note: msOS is highly protected system out of the box. Security check was added as an extra layer for your confirmation that your device on the IP is not reachable from the outside.

[coinscrow]

msOS Update
- Improved generation of unique SSH keys to further strengthen rigs' privacy and security.
- New command mpass to change the default login password. As firewall is enabled by default, this is really optional. Keep in mind that if you change the password, you will be asked for
it each time you log in to the local console, SSH, and SFTP.

Note: Unique SSH keys are part of our codebase since 2019; msOS is also by default blocking all incoming connections from outside of your network. This improvement is another layer of security that will help miners that forgot to disable DMZ (or wish to keep it enabled) or if their NAT is not enabled. You may notice changed fingerprint on SSH logins, but that is expected and normal after this update.

Manual action is not required on your end.

- New commands: ssh-lock and ssh-unlock to enable or disable SSH and Shellinabox from outside the network.
- New feature: Auto-locking your SSH (22) and Shellinabox (4200) if msOS detects that your IP is exposed and therefore protecting you from potential unauthorized access.
- Motd got an update to show a warning if your machine is running on the public IP.
- Support for latest Nvidia 470.57.02 driver. Available within nvidia-update tool. Install with nvidia-update --install 470.57.02
