[ANN] Bminer: a fast Equihash/Ethash miner for Nvidia and CUDA GPUs (8.0

[Patrick77]

Bminer is a highly optimized cryptocurrency miner that runs on modern NVIDIA GPUs (Maxwell and Pascal, i.e. GPUs that have compute capability 5.0 or above). Bminer is one of the fastest publicly available miners today -- we use various techniques including tiling and pipelining to realize the full potentials of the hardware.

Bminer also comes with REST APIs to facilitate production deployments (e.g., mining farms).

Bminer supports mining Equihash-based coins (e.g., Zcash) with 2% of devfee.
Bminer supports mining Ethash-based coins (e.g., Ethereum) with 0.65% of devfee.
Bminer also supports dual mining mode - mining Ethash-based coins (e.g. Ethereum) and Blake14r-based coins (e.g. Decred) / Blake2s-based coins (e.g. Verge) at the same time. Devfee for the dual mining mode is 1.3%, and the second coin (e.g. Decred/Verge) is mined without devfee.

Thanks I will try it, I have 1060 6Go and 3Go and there are 50 to 80 sols more on the 6Go, I am looking for a miner to reduce this difference but I do not find, I will try this one to for a test.

I'll tell you if I've had an improvement.

Thanks again

Hello! I'm interested in - how is your success in testing this software? Does it make sense to switch to it with Ethminer or Claymore?
