Ufasoft Miner - Windows/Linux, x86/x64, SSE2/OpenCL, Open Source

Thanks I just switched to bitminter and everything works great..  But I may be back to square one when the ASICs I ordered arrive.

ufasoft, any chance to implement Stratum protocol to the miner? cgminer 2.8.0 supports it, so there's already reference implementation in C. I see tons of ufasoft miners on my pool and native stratum support would be benefical for everybody.

Don't hesitate to join #stratum IRC channel and ask to anything, there are always people willing to help you.

just wanna remind you to update your site (http://mining.bitcoin.cz/stratum-mining), the "compatible miners" section

take a look at first post or my signature.

[gigica viteazu`]

sorry, but I don`t see the portable windows version

[K1773R]

sorry, but I don`t see the portable windows version

winblows works fine without any additional dlls. so its portable already

[gigica viteazu`]

my definition of portable software doesn`t involve any installer.

actually, why do you use one ?

bitcoin-miner.exe is no installer!

bitcoin-miner.exe is no installer!

is it me or we are talking about different things ... from OP I can download only ufasoft_coin_0.36.exe which IS an installer.

i`ll refrain myself from using your miner for now.

cheers

i cant talk about this one, u have to wait for ufasoft to answer

[gigica viteazu`]

indeed, my mistake

Yes, it is Installer. But you can unpack it by 7-Zip as usual archive.
And then run coin-miner.exe (some DLLs required in the same directory)

[gigica viteazu`]

ok, so it`s suppose to be user friendly.

tkx for the information ultrasoft, i`ll give it a try

how does this compare to Cgminer or BFGminer nowadays?

CGMiner's usability and performance is better.
But this miner has simpler code and good for experiments.

I only have a cpu machine. Is this a good miner for a cpu machine, or would you recommend another? I am still in the initial download. Do I need to wait until total download is complete before I can mine. Is anyone using this miner with the mining pools, or is it a solo miner? I was working with 50btc pool. They gave me a link to this miner and said it would work best with my machine. I hope they are correct with the gui I get less than one hundred khash.
Thanks

dont mine solo with a CPU, CPU are obsolete. the fastest CPUminer is https://github.com/pooler/cpuminer/

Hi, I was only able to download an application extension. I am not certain what I did wrong. Did you maybe give me the wrong link. I do not have a program on my computer to open what I downloaded.
Thanks
