Topic: [ANN] NSF Miner - ethereum miner without fee [AMD+Nvidia/Windows+Linux] - page 2. (Read 1901 times)

New update coming soon

write down the result, I think it's interesting to know and the rest of who will be interested in the miner

Thanks for the info...

The original Windows binary doesn't need an installation, also no admin permissions. You just put the nsfminer.exe somewhere and run it (with arguments, so from a .bat file for more convenience). When running "nfsminer --help" on a CMD window it should output help infos, instead of asking for admin permissions and trying to install something.

For me the trojan created a file znsfminer.exe in C:\Windows\SysWOW64 - it also created the files helppane.exe (and put it in automatic startup) and libssp-0.dll in C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\.minecraft\libraries\commons-logging\commons-logging\1.1.3. I guess it just selected a random folder within the user directory that has sufficient tree levels to hide the files "down there", because I don't find any reference for these specific files in this specific folder (and not everyone has Minecraft installed). So for everyone else it's probably in different folders. You could search for the .exe or .dll name within your user folder, although there is no guarantee it won't use a different file name (that usually belongs to a valid system file in Windows) on other systems.

That's the thing's I know because Windows Defender detected them. I don't know whether there is more and I should rather reinstall Windows now, still investigating...

mmmh, that's why probably I wasn't able to install it
In fact 1.34 worked, 1.37 upward weren't installing correctly
I will delete everything then

At the moment everything is normal, I also complained about the github account, now I will look at the history of logins to the account and change the password at the same time.
Thanks for the info

I'm sure it wasn't on purpose - that you can easily fall for such a link is the whole idea about creating such a repo. But yes, you should always double-check such links, people actually click on them 

I also reported the repo on GitHub, hopefully it's removed soon.

One minute, now I'll double-check

I can't believe nobody noticed that yet, although people already complained that running it from the command line with --help parameter doesn't work as expected and the program wants to run as admin and install something instead, which should raise lots of red flags.

OP is spreading a virus, since his binary links lead to no-fee-ethereum-minlng instead of no-fee-ethereum-mining (L instead of I). It's a 1:1 copy of the original GitHub repo regarding the source files, but with different (malicious) binaries on its "releases" page. If you use this you probably mine on someone elses behalf instead for yourself.

Ethminer runs better with 6800, 6800 xt and 6900 xt for my rig too.
6800 sapphire nitro+
6800 xt msi,
6900 xt xfx

Yes, but ethminer runs better with opencl kernel support for RX580

Thanks, - R worked well!

Question, can this miner be used with older AMD Rx580?

Add -R command.

Hi
Looks like that this miner is not reporting any hashrate to ethermine , it is mining but 0 is reported.
Can somebody confirm?

Thanks

Read the topic again, at the very beginning the developer's contact is indicated, and I have not written anywhere that I am a developer

Project owner and developer @ jean-m-cyr

yes, if he is really in contact with Jean M cyr, he will put an eth or other key on the page;).

I am waiting for the news, after I have been using it for several months without the need to advertise.

Many tks: JayDDee

Be carefull, OP is not the developper. I suggest you contact the developper directly.

This is the second time I have seen a thread promoting someone else's software. It's the same
pattern: lots of posts with no content, just promisses, and nonsensical responses to technical questions.

There's nothing wrong with the software but be carefull who you donate to.

What's new in this version, I can't wait because I have all of my nvidia 3xxx cards that are running very well.

It is a pity that you do not take into account the ETH + ZIL mining because the other "fork" projects are not maintained.

How to make a donation?

I prefer to make a donation than to be taxed for a mining software that does not bring anything.

New update coming soon

until it is a priority
