Ravencoin Miner: an optimized open source miner created specifically for Ravencoin.

v2.6
Improvements to poolside hash rate stability (recommended to use lower than normal stratum difficulty)
Difficulty recommendation:
d=Hashrate/2
d=Hashrate/3
Improvements to all hash functions
Improved power efficiency

v2.5
Optimizations to all hash functions:
bmw, jh, blake, groestl, keccak, skein, luffa, cubehash, echo, shavite, simd, fugue, hamsi, shabal, whirlpool, sha

v2.2
Kraww!
Added estimate for RVN earned per day (displays every 5th share)

I am currently working on making the "RVN/day: X RVN" text print in the official Ravencoin colors.

Also, please feel free to post results and comparisons with other miner programs.

I have great respect for anyone who can develop miners and the estimate of earnings per day seems nice; but do you have any preliminary comparisons vs. enemy?

Sorry no direct comparisons to enemy myself as I have not personally run enemy miner. Feel free to post them though!!

Linux support is now available!
Windows release is the same

Ravencoin Miner: an optimized open source miner created specifically for Ravencoin.

v2.2.2
Kraww!
Added estimate for RVN earned per day (displays every 5th share)
Linux Support
Cleaned up Display:
-Removed hash order display (Optional)
-Removed first algorithm display (Optional)
-Removed Core clock, GPU temp, and GPU fan speed display, now only displays Efficiency and Power
   -(Afterburner and other programs display this better anyways)
   -Note: Only removed display, the code to monitor these values is unaffected and any options related to them should be available.

Ravencoin Miner has been updated to v2.3. This build contains a fix for the miner not submitting valid shares when Hamsi was the first hash function in the hash order and this nets around a 6% increase in overall hash rate!

OK great, I will try to check this.

Awesome thanks let me know what you think

how do you measure 6% overall rate?
please share comparison and figures.

[szafa]

Displays is not need to show its only slowing hash.

[jesser509]

Previous to the Hamsi fix, whenever Hamsi was the first hash function in the hash function order, the miner would simply not submit shares. With the fix implemented this is no longer the case. The miner works as normal.

Considering the first hash function can be any of the 16 hash functions, there is a 1/16 or 6.25% chance that Hamsi will be the first hash function in the order. Had that been the case, the miner would not have submitted shares until the next block that didn't start with Hamsi.

This is now fixed in both the v2.3 and v2.4 release which results in an average 6.25% hash rate increase over v2.2.

verygood

[hemendrachauhan19]

Good work, I'll try this today.

[Marvell2]

trying it now, seems at least the same speed as enemy , gotta try it on a 1080ti rig yet
i wish these miners showed average hashrate bc with all the diff algos its hard to figure out whats
faster

Hey I am glad you are seeing good initial results!!

It is in the default bat file, "-N 600"

This will use 600 shares to calculate your hash rate shown on the Accepted lines.

You can change 600 to anything you would like.

Higher = more stable hash rate display
Lower = Changes more rapidly.

What kind of OC is best for this miner on the 1080ti?

On the nevermore miner they advise mem OC is useless and the miner only benefits from the core.

Is it the same for your miner?

Yea memory in general is pretty useless for x16r. As much core as you can get is the best. And you can reduce power % a little.

so far Im happy with it , can it do .05 fee instead of 1%
seems to be at least as fast as the enemy miner but has more features like the daily
profit.  Also seems a bit more stable .

I only get 15mhs on my 1080tis , should i try a higwr intensity? mem
is +300 core is +100
