Releases: colonelwatch/nonceMiner

v2.2.1

23 Aug 00:49
Compare
Choose a tag to compare

Updates:

  • Added GPU selection with the -s option
  • Fixed domain names with a dash being rejected when input with the -o option

Running:
The nonceMiner binary is dependent on OpenSSL and OpenCL. The OpenSSL light binary is available for Windows on slproweb.com, and this usually comes pre-installed on Linux. The OpenCL runtime should come with your graphics driver.

nonceMiner_linux.zip:
This file will no longer be distributed because it makes more sense to let Linux users compile for their own machine (see "Compiling" in README.md).

Updates:

  • Dropped pulse-pool (149.91.88.18:6000) as the default node, manual entry using -o option is now required (See #19)
  • Swapped ping target to fix pings failing (See #19)
  • Added OpenCL code for DUCO-S1 on short (xxhash) prefixes, this is not OpenCL support for xxhash
  • Fixed integer overflow issues in OpenCL, performance slightly reduced
