[JCE]Fast & stable CN/v8/Heavy/Tube/XHV miner, CPU+GPU, Vega56 1800+ RX580 1200+

[Nightworker88]

i am really sorry to hear that, i completly loved this miner , specially the CPU one.

i did not have time to look here last weeks, but what i wanted to ask, and specially now, when XMR hardfolks, which cpu coin should i prefer to mine now to be able to use JCE for the next time?

I would some with "good profits" now, not maybe in some years - i tried many crypto calc., but in really its only the own experience what is best, and i really do not so have much time beside my job

Again, THX for JCE and all best!!!

JCE, your miner is really a great thing, faster and better of all similar miners (before i was using xmrig, but your's gives a better hashrate and more stable). I have been using JCEminer for almost a half of a year, and surely was hoping that you are going to implement new Monero algo. This is such a very sad news that you are ending development(. I would like to thank you for all work you've done, and surely hoping for your come back:)

Sad day for crypto

JCE, you could release montly builds for CPU or GPU only.

Hello all,

Sorry for the 2-week blackout, but i'm coming with bad news: as I expected, i lost most of the dev time I used to have the previous 12 monthes and i now have virtually zero.

I could somehow cheat by taking the reference code I miss (CN-GPU, CN-Monero4, Wow...), compile it and get some fees for free, but that would be mishonnest. Rather than providing bad support, i prefer to explicit say i need to stop.

While the lack of time is the principal reason, i also noticed:
- A strong loss of value of Coins, only a few of them are still profitable, unless you have free power
- My competitors got a lot stronger. Xmrig/stak went from a naive C code (march 2018) to an on-the-fly assembly generator (march 2019). While not impossible, beating them would take a lot more time than it took one year ago when there were just three, simple forks.

I wish i had released one last farewell version, like with CN-ReverseWaltz, but i just have zero time left. I struggled to release the v8-capable in october (almost) in time, but for Monero4 i just can't.

I thank you all for your priceless comments, support and bug report, with a mention for Unclwish who found some crazy obscure bugs.
I'll put an explicit message in first post and GitHub page to state the last supported forks are the ones of jan/fev 2019 (Turtle v2 & al.) and that there will be none for Monero4.

Thanks again and goodbye,

Thanks for your miner, very sad to read ending dev but understandable.

hopefully you get to return one day..!!

thanks again..

p.s if you ever did come back as a subscription type miner , id be paying!:)

Please release 1 final update for Cnote R (Monero)

Sad event. JCE was the best for older generation CPUs non-AES architecture. XMRIG gives much less hashes.

GoodNight Sweet Prince!...

dude, just do the dev fee that you like, according to fluctuations..... idc if its 2% and became 3%...
c'mon

Hi guys,

How can i lower the cpu usage?

My cpu is always in 100% , i got no lag but i think its not a good practice  

I use the --low paremeter, but doesnt make diference!!

Its possible to mine in background with no visible cmd line?

Thanks

[zeef]

Any interesting sugesting of other miner to replace jce miner?

[Wolfie]

JCE if you get bored plz make a UPX2 mod version . . my threadripper only likes JCE



Thxx!

[Mashy81]

Would really like JCE to update the UPX2 algo.
Just drop the GPU version of the software and just do JCE CPU version...
Please....

[QuirkSilver]

dude, just put whatever you think of a proper donation ratio. Well, the famous Claymore had a  Closed source miner, millions using and he literally was milking them... of 2017 i speak (mainly) even 3% is nothing when you ask me.
I already use other miners, but thats a piece of advice for yourself. you're talented.

Hey Jce,

Will you consider re-working the CPU miner for RandomX?

[Nameenvy]

Hey Jce,

Will you consider re-working the CPU miner for RandomX?

Indeed, just do CPU RandomX, if you find time to slip other algo's in then do so, no need to be optimised for every variation of CN.

Please and thank you

Please and thank you

CN variants are going to be dead soon anyway. Everyone is adopting RandomX and thus JCE expertise in CPU architecture will make the JCE miner be the best optimised again.

Hey man can you just post the source if youre over it?

thxx!

Have you both read this: Reply#2356? It's the long version of the one in the OP.
Based from the context, he wont be coming back, not just because of the free time but also because of the other competitors' update speed.

Also, the repository in Github, the OP (hover over on the last edit date) and JCE-Miner himself have been inactive since March 2019 (all at the same time).

Indeed, but that does not means he could reconsider. Or another dev to resume development.
Most people would like to see this miner back in some way.
