Latest version is v3.0.5
Supports phi2 Luxcoin new algoDOWNLOAD :
* Windows :
https://github.com/genminer/cryptogen/releases* Linux : not yet
HARDWARE / SYSTEM NEEDED :
- OS : Windows 10 x64 (pro or enterprise recommended)
- GPUs : 98x / 10xx cards (1080ti 8GB+ recommended :-)
- Recent nVidia drivers up to versions 397.x, with compute capability 5.0 and beyond.
Avoid version 398.x as it seems to create problems.
FEATURES :
- Built for nVidia with CUDA 7.5, 32bits version (anyway faster than 64bits version)
- New optimized code with special portions. Effective hashrate is higher, without power overkill.
- Up to 16 GPUs can be used.
- Supports Stratum versions
- Shows detailed mining information and hashrate for each card.
SPECIAL FEATURES :
- Supplied batch file allows easier choice for mining.
- You may create configuration files with pools, one file for each coin. Much simple to manage.
- Up to 16 pools in each configuration file.
- Automatic watchdog, auto-terminate if too many errors occurs (--max-rejects, default=7)
- Inactivity watchdog, auto-terminate if program stucks more than 120s.
- Automatic failover to next pool if current doesn't work.
- Miner can be restarted if too many blocks pass without submission (-M, --max-blocks-null)
- Special parameters can be used in the configuration file / pools zone (%WORKER%, %DIFF%)
INSTALLATION GUIDE :
- Unzip downloaded file into desired folder
- Update cryptogen.*.conf files with your own information (pools, wallet addresses, etc)
- Feel free to add new pools in .conf files
- Feel free to add new conf files for your preferred coins.
- Update file CRYPTOGEN-MINE.bat to choose coin to mine.
- Execute (double-click) CRYPTOGEN-MINE.bat
CONFIGURATION FILES :
The batch file CRYPTOGEN-MINE.bat uses one configuration file for each coin to mine.
These files must be in JSON format, some are provided as examples.
Some options (like -w or -z) define "tags" values usable in config file.
FREE SOFTWARE :
Using this software is free, however, a default developer fee of 2% is applied. During each cycle of 6000 seconds (100 minutes),
the software will mine 120s for the developer. One don't know in advance when the developer mining will occur during the cycle.
You can reduce the fee, anyway your contribution is highly appreciated. If you don't agree with this, don't use this software.
