Live data from rbminer.net's monitoring central


RainbowMiner has advanced to v4.8.9.9 already - we have quiet a list of updates to announce (see below).
Most importantly we are proud to continuously provide our miners with the most up to date miners in a timely manner (automatic updates). The same applies for all the pool modules. Every API is kept up to date. The most interesting additions since the last release are miners to handle Dynex, dual and triple mining. Also some new pools (as requested by our users) made it to our list: Ekpool, Ethwmine, Molepool, Pmpmining, RaptoreumZone, RPlantSolo (the solo mining edition of the RPlant pool module), Vipor. If you ever feel that an important pool is missing, please simply add an issue on Github. I will evaluate and in case quickly add the pool. Regarding the core updates, you can see, that we work relentlessly to provide a most profitable tool for you.

If you plan to mine on Nicehash only, RainbowMiner comes with everything you will ever need. Just go through the setup and select Nicehash as the one and only pool and off you go.

So long, happy mining!


Updates, included in all releases up to v4.8.9.9:
 

Finally, some good news for all Nvidia GPU owners that suffered from lower hashrates due to the LHR lock, this release brings along 100% LHR unlock with the most current versions of miners Trex and NBminer. Along with these two, a handful of the most prominent miners have been updated for improved hashrate and bugfixes. Also, we finally enabled dual-mining Eth + TON for Teamred.
On the pool side, ZergPool can be now used with SSL encrypted connections, too and Nicehash has switched to auto geolocation stratums. Some other pools needed some bugfixes and updates.
This time we had no bugs in our core to fix, very nice actually Only the default database updates happened: DAG sizes, pools and algorithms databases needed updates. Our recommendation for the PowerShell Core version has been updated to be v7.2.3

So long, happy mining!

Oh, and don't get scared by the current market downturn. Mine + Hodl = sleep well


Updates, included in all releases up to v4.8.4.1:
 

This release of RainbowMiner finally brings back dual-mining support. Even though that the times of Ethash as PoW are counted, it's currently most profitable to do some dual-mining with it, on your GPUs. Especially mining for ETH + some TON looks very promising. The up-to-date versions of Gminer and Lolminer give us all the tools we need - and of course RainbowMiner fully supports the dual mining, including individual intensities and even dual mining during times, when you rig is being rented out at MiningRigRentals, giving you some extra profit.
Many more miners have been updated, most notably, we have integrated the Neoscrypt-Xaya algorithm into the newest CcminerKlausT release. Teamblack supports more pools. And so many more. Have a look onto our list below.
Our pool modules have gotten a lot of rework and fixes - with most pools now supporting real privacy with SSL stratum connections, ZergPool, Zpool and MiningRigRentals included. A handful of now offline pools have been removed from our repo, but also, some new pools have been added (ViaBTC, Tonpool, ToncoinPool, TONWhales, ...)
Finally, and as always, we have done a lot of work to our core program. New parameters, better fastlane-benchmarking, bugfixes, ...

Happy mining!

Updates, included in all releases up to v4.8.3.2:
 

After a couple of very turbulent weeks, with very high highs and some bitter lows regarding the BTC price, we proudly announce our new RainbowMiner release v4.7.8.8. Most major miners have been updated and three miners have been added: the opensource FIRO miners and the closed source RTM miner CpuminerWyvern. Notably is, that some of the ETH miners now supply LHR unlocking. Of course we implemented LHR detection into our RainbowMiner core, so that we can switch on these miner's unlocking mechanism automatically.
Since the Ghostrider/Take2 algorithm mining that RTM coin became quit profitable, we decided to add two new RTM-only pools, the Flockpool and the Minafacil pool. Also brand new: a simple switch allows to lower the ZergPool's fee from 0.5% to 0.3%: just set "ReduceZergPoolFee" to "1" in config.txt and RainbowMiner will refer your rig to ZergPool thus decreasing the fee automatically. That's a price reduction of 40%.

Our core code has got some big additions and reworks:

• all solo mining pools are now enhanced by time-to-find, difficulty and a new profitability scheme
• overclocking Nvidia GPUs includes locking of core and memory clock, now
• proxy usage has been reworked
• the webinterface includes setup pages for pools and coins
• the webinterface includes a JSON editor for all config files

... and many more fixes, additions and updates. Just have a look at our changelog.

Happy mining!


Updates, included in all releases up to v4.7.8.8:
 

Say welcome to the brand-new RainbowMiner release v4.7.6.6 - on our list are tons up updates, upgrades and also some bugfixes.
Almost all major miners have got an update, most notably the Ethash-speedster Teamblack, which now comes in v1.19. Almost all bigger miner projects have implemented the FIRO hardfork algorithm FiroPow, which will kick in within the next 24 hours.
We have added Crazypool, KuCoin, Minerpool and a special 2Miners-autoexchange module, with Ethash mining only and autoexchange to BTC or NANO.
The list of upgrades and bugfixes is loooong, so let me highlight only a few: complete rework of the HttpClient base class to finally get rid of Window's port exhaustion problem, complete rework of the proxy handling, multiple nice new parameters in config.txt, pools.config.txt and scheduler.config.txt.

Again - many thanks to our community for their enhancement ideas, issues, help and support.

Happy mining!



Updates, included in all releases up to v4.7.6.6:
 

This update mainly brings our most important miners up to speed. This is especially true for the newly added Teamblack miner (written bei sp_), which turned out to be a real speedster regarding Ethash/Etchash mining. As you can see on our monitoring page, this miner is already running on more than 8% of all rbminer.net - connected rigs worldwide. RainbowMiner is currently the only profit switcher, that has this miner integrated and running for it's users. As promised, I'll stay on top with the updates.
More miners got a recent update (mostly to boost the Nvidia 30xx LHR cards): Gminer, Lolminer, Nanominer, NBminer, Trex and Wildrig. Xmrig has been updated with the newest CUDA plugin v6.15.1, which finally solves the "out of memory" error on non-CryptoNight algorithms.
And finally, PowerShell Core has been updated to v7.1.4.

So long, happy mining!

Updates, included in all releases up to v4.7.4.6:
 

With this update, we update four miners - basically optimizing LHR unlocking for Ethash, plus improving KawPow. I would like to highlight the new Teamblack miner. It's recent update to v1.03 improved the miner's performance and fixed a good handful of bugs. sp_ gave us a truly fast Ethash/Etchash miner at hand.

Happy Mining!

Updates, included in all releases up to v4.7.4.3:
 

Crazy times for miners - the price for BTC has seen 50k USD again, Ethereum slowly steps towards POS.
And all that time, we continously stay up to date with new miners (SP has published his new Teamblack miner), update to all popular existing miners. The same applies to our pool modules (thanks to the help of our users, which open new issues on Github and start discussions on our Discord-server).
The changes to the core and fixes of RainbowMiner are numerous, just read through the list below. One major highlight: it's now possible to mine on Intel GPUs, as well.

Happy mining!

Updates, included in all releases up to v4.7.4.1:
 

This is mainly a miner-update. Highlights: Gminer has improved it's DAG generation for Ethereum mining, Teamred now mines Verthash, as well.
Also, we have now updated our databases (and pool modules), so that RainbowMiner can now handle FLUX (renamed from ZEL).


Happy mining!

Updates, included in all releases up to v4.7.1.7:
 

Many miners have been updated. Notably, xmrig has added support for Uplexa (cn/upx2) algorithm and Teamred now mines verthash, too. Most of the other miners fixed bugs, lowered CPU usage and improved hashrates. On the pool side, we say bye-bye to Blazepool, since it seems to be offline since some time. What we really came to love are unMineable pool (mining for coins, that cannot be mined) and ProHashing (autoexchange to many coins with unique pay-per-share). SuprNova has added optical bitcoin (OBTC).
Our core software got some enhancements, optimizations and bugfixes (again many thanks to our community!). Plus, the linux release now comes with a set of cuda 11.3 libraries.

Happy mining!

Updates, included in all releases up to v4.7.1.5:
 

We have some exciting new additions to our pool repertoire: Ezil.me, which allows for dual mining of ZIL and ETH/ETC, then the autoexchange pool ProHashing.com, which claims to be the "The most trusted and profitable cryptocurrency mining pool". And finally unMineable, which makes it possible to mine coins, that aren't mineable, like TRX or BTT and many others. You send them Ethash, KawPow or RandomX hashrate and in return you get these coins.
Beside this, most of the major miner developers have updated their product, as well. We have all the updates, always quick and in-time.
Some new parameters and updates have been added to the RainbowMiner core, plus, we have fixed some smaller bugs-n-glitches, thanks to our growing community for finding and reporting these.

Happy mining!


Updates, included in all releases up to v4.7.0.9:
 

The brand new release v4.7.0.2 is out. The past weeks, lots of lots of changes in the multiple pools kept me busy, as well as a bunch of interesting miner updates, that needed integration. If you are a Binance user and have a lot of wallets with them, you now have the possibility to add API data to RainbowMiner. All your wallets will then magically appear. Lastly, finally, after some pretty long nights of work, I managed to get rid of an annoying Powershell bug: some rigs would simply stop updating the pool and currency data randomly, because Powershell's HttpClient crashed. We now have cURL as replacement at hands. So if you happen to have that problem in the future, just switch to cURL.

So long. Happy mining!


Updates, included in all releases up to v4.7.0.2:
 

Of course - your rig will mine away on all selected non-rental pools. As soon as a renter picks your rig on MRR, RainbowMiner will switch over to the rental. At the end of the rental, normal mining will resume.

Curious to know more about how the MRR setup works.

If I have MRR and another pool selected, will the system know to use the other pool as the "non rental pool" on my rigs to mine on when they are not rented at MRR??

With this release, I have updated all major databases, starting from the algorithms, downto the pool infos. Regarding miners, SrbMiner managed to improve Autolycos2 mining speed, again. And thanks to one RainbowMiner user, we found out, that CryptoDredge fails to run, if started within a VM (like QEMU or VMware). To avoid this problem, I have added a VM check for Windows and Linux.

Happy mining!

Updates, included in all releases up to v4.6.8.9:
 

.. and another quick update. Just some bug fixes but also, Trex has been updated, as well as JayDDee's famous Cpuminer.

Again - happy mining!

Updates, included in all releases up to v4.6.8.8:
 

Wow, what a year!

The past 6 months have
a) shown, that crypto is really going main stream
b) proven, it's still very profitable to let your GPUs and CPUs mine for you
c) not decreased my workload a bit.

I have continuously updated all integrated miners to their most current versions, even some new miner programs have arrived. One very promising candidate is for sure the Verthash miner v0.6.2 - it brings old GPUs with small memory to new life and profitability. This is especially good, because Ethereum's DAG size is now way beyond the 4GB.

Thanks to our active RainbowMiner community on https://github.com/rainbowminer/RainbowMiner and on https://discord.gg/DUJqjfk4, I was able to keep up with the ever changing pool APIs. Most of our integrated pools got their updates in time. Just have look at the changlog, below ;-)

Finally, I have heavily improved the Linux compatibility and implemented tons of good enhancement. Again, credits go to our community, that don't stop with superb ideas.

Happy mining!


Updates, included in all releases up to v4.6.8.7:
 

This release comes with some breaking news! We finally managed to fully integrate MiningRigRentals.com: it has never been easier to rent out your rig. Just activate MiningRigRentals, set your API credentials and RainbowMiner will take care of the rest. Rigs will be created and updated at MRR completely automatic.

KawPOW has arrived in our systems, we welcome three new pools to our ever growing collection (Ravepool and Sunpool for GRIMM mining, and Hellominer). We updated many major and minor miners, including devfee free Xmrig 6.0.1 beta, Phoenix, Trex, Gminer and many more. TTminer has been updated to v5.0.2 runs with 0% developer fee, now.

Our RainbowMiner localhost webinterface grows, especially the online setup page has evolved a lot.

Happy mining!


Updates, included in all releases up to v4.5.8.4:
 

I hope you are all healthy and still in good mood. Being locked-in does not stop us from mining nor from keeping RainbowMiner uptodate, so here are some highlights, coming with the new release v4.5.5.2: all major miners got an update, especially, TTminer, Gminer (and soon Trex) will support the new KawPOW!! Ravencoin algorithm. RainbowMiner is setup to switch to the new RVN mining algorithm on 6th May automatically, so you don't need to care. Three new pools made it to our inventory: 6Block, Equipool and Solopool. Finally, we put lot's of effort into the linux version of RainbowMiner, many fixes and updates have been implemented.

Happy mining,

RainbowMiner

Great software.

Just want to say that I've been using this miner for few weeks now and I'm very happy with how it performs and how the dev response to questions.
I mine mostly at MPH, NH, 6Block and also list out the rig on MRR.

Hi, in regards to setup MRR.


I have all of these setup "API_Key": "", "API_Secret": "", "User": "", "Worker": "", "EnableMining": "0"
but I did not see my rig became online in MRR after setting it up on RBMiner though, does RBMiner setup the algo of the rig on MRR or I need to setup it manually?

>>> http://rig.rent/rigs/152632

I see, so the BTC address I have in the config will be just for other pool's usage where MPH will use the settings I have in their pool for autoexchange as long as I set AExchange to my currency. Thanks.

You will need you MiningPoolHub username, not your mining address. If you autoexchange to ETH, your config would look like this:


.. no need to set "BTC", "ETH" or else, for this pool.

To be able to mine Nicehash, register an account with them and find out your BTC mining address. Put this to "BTC" field in pools.config.txt:


Finally - make sure MiningPoolHub and Nicehash are on your "PoolName" list in config.txt

Thanks for the reply, that means I can change my wallet address to use Eth instead of BTC correct?


Also, I still can't figure out how to setup the miner to mine on nicehash.

Of course. Miningpoolhub is integrated. RainbowMiner even supports the MPH API, so that you can easily monitor your balance.

Hi, does this support multi algo mining with mph?

In the past weeks, we had the focus on three major tasks.
1 - we finally managed to get overclocking Nvidia GPUs working on Linux systems
2 - we added Handshake/HNS miners and pool 6Block
3 - since the Eth DAG size now is too big to handle for 4GB GPUs (on Windows 10), we reworked the VRAM checks to reflect this.

.. plus many miners have updated their executables. Have a look at NBminer: it now manages to mine Ethash and Handshake in dual mining mode. Nice!

Happy mining,

RainbowMiner



Updates, included in all releases up to v4.5.3.9:
 

We did welcome 2020 with the addition of a handful of pretty interesting new pools, like the famous and large chinese BeePool, the CpuPool for mining cpu coins, the pools BtcPrivate, Leafpool, Luckpool, Poolin, Poolium, MiningPoolOvh and finally the Monero autoexchange pool MoneroOcean. Most pools have been added due to user requests - so, if you really really miss a pool in our portfolio, just drop an issue with your request at our https://github.com/rainbowminer/RainbowMiner
Of course, all other pools are being continuously updated, so that all the offered mining opportunities show up in RainbowMiner within no time.

The changes and fixes to the core of RainbowMiner are numerous, so I will only highlight a few of them. Have a look at the changelog below, if you are interested.
We added "EnableRestartComputer" and "RestartComputerHours", so that you have the possibility to automatically restart your rig, after a fixed runtime. Another useful addition, are the newly added parameters "Algorithm", "ExcludeAlgorithm", "CoinSymbol" and "ExcludeCoinSymbol", to our scheduler. It's now possible to specify, what to mine during specific times of the day.
The current release now contains live ethdagsizes, to avoid out of memory errors, if a DAG size finally reaches your GPU's memory size.

.. and much more.

Enjoy mining 2020!


Updates, included in all releases up to v4.5.2.9:
 

I like your miner, I'm doing the benchmarks but I would like to have a pool that has autoexchange: https://fairpool.pro

damn dude nice, you been working haha. i forgot about this great AIO miner i admit
theres not many that support AMD so i always like to play with the ones that do
gonna check this out today ill let you know here if i find any issues (or GitHub report them i shall)

This summer, I have been pretty busy improving RainbowMiner, by adding more and more features: the RainbowMiner users keep on having brilliant ideas for more and keep on posting these on github. We have hard times to catch up with all these good ideas But we love the challenge.

Multiple miners have been updated, so that RainbowMiner can deal with most, if not all, of the promising new PoW coins on the market, like CKB, TCR, the new RVN algorithm and the upcoming XMR, using RandomX. It looks like, the focus is slightly shifting towards CPU mining, currently, so I decided to add the RPlant pool. Also, one user proposed Luxor pool - a pretty interesting pool with hand picked algorithm and optional autoexchange to BTC.

At the core, RainbowMiner got some pretty awesome new screws to adjust:
"EnableHeatMyFlat" : use your mining rig as heater, it will prefer miners, that run hotter. Adjustable in 10 steps.
"MaxActivityDays" : the length of the often used Activity page at the miners Dashboard can now be adjusted
"PowerOffsetPercent" : for more exact power efficiency calculation, a percentual power offset can be added (adding to an absolute "PowerOffset")

Under the hood, multiple upgrades have been integrated, things like earning tracking, automatic price adjustments according to the honesty of the pool APIs, more overclocking presets, speed optimizations, automatic miner API port adjustments.

.. and much more.

So long, be happy and enjoy mining!

Updates, included in all releases up to v4.4.6.0:
 

The hot summer period did not stop the miners to be updated at a pretty hot frequency. Some very interesting forks happend, like WOW forked to new RandomX and LOKI forked to new RandomXL and GRIN forked to Cuckarood29 algorithms. Plus new EquihashVds algorithm popped up for very profitable VDOLLAR mining. Of course, RainbowMiner provides suitable miners and pools for mining those.
Nicehash has started their new platform V2 - since they are currently running both platforms, the old and the new one, in parallel, we decided to add NiceHashV2 as extra pool. Now RainbowMiner can decide which platform pays off more profit, all the time.
And, finally, many many miners have been updated to the brandnew versions, like Bminer, NBminer, Gminer, SrbMiner and more.

So, happy mining!


Updates, included in all releases up to v4.3.6.6:
 

Another month has past and I put a lot of effort into RainbowMiner, again. Almost all major miners have been upgraded to newer versions and the CPU miners got a major cleanup plus more CPU miners for linux have been added.
New pools: SuprNova (finally!), UUpool (mainly to provide VDS/Vdollar mining) and CoinFoundry (BCD mining with high volume).
New currencies and algorithms: EquihashVds, Equihash 125,4, X25X (SIN, former SUQA) and HoneyComb
New features:
- Postblockmining has got a new parameter "MinProfitPercent" to furthermore increase profits
- client/server config file sharing has been optimized
- a list (live updated) for unprofitable algorithms is now in place
- and many more to discover

So, back to work and happy mining, to you!



Updates, included in all releases up to v4.3.4.2:
 

You can end up burning it down. Not really worth it IMHO. If you want to get the feel of mining and learn something new, buy an old PC with something silly like Celeron, second hand GPU (RX 570/580 4GB) and try to mine cryptonight like Monero.

Mining cryptocurrency has been a side attraction for me and am in interested to run it. unfortunately i have no equipment. i was wondering if it is possible to mine with laptop. a window 7, intel 5 , 4 GB Ram . will be convenient to do so please.

The program work very well but i can't just find the command for change the profit percentage on the best algo.
 it's possible to continue mining on a coin even if at the moment another is a higher price if the latter does not exceed the 5% example ?
 All this for avoid continuous switching

Sorry for that. Yes, there was an color-incompatibility on some systems. I have cleared this in the current release:


The new release v4.3.1.7 is available at github. Again, many miners have been updated to their current versions. And, surprise, Claymore is back with an update to it's Ethash miner. Also, we closely follow the develpment in ProgPow alike algorithms and add miners for all of them, at the moment we learn about them. There is little news on the pool front, everything runs stable at the moment.
We have been reworking tons of things in the RainbowMiner core. Especially to furthermore improve Linux support and make life easier. For that reason, we added nice setup and install scripts. Setup scripts allow to run the build-in configuration in a separate command window. That's great news for all Linux users, that run RainbowMiner as background job. Another new feature is the ability to share configurations in a client/server configuration. Take over the control of your mining rig farm by simply reuse the server's configuration. You may even create config files for specific clients in your network.

That leaves me to wish you happy mining!



Updates, included in all releases up to v4.3.1.7:
 

Whenever I run the Miner the console's colours are changing to a pink background with yellow letters, is this caused by your code or is there something else wrong?

Even though I've reset the colours to black+white, they'll turn back to weird once I restart the miner.
It wasn't like that in the previous versions.

It's time for a huge update: the step to version 4.2.0.5 imported the following major improvements:

• RainbowMiner now runs on most Linux distros, too
• Client/Server networking is now available to enable large farms
• many miners improved Cuckaroo29/Cuckaroo29s, especially reducing the memory requirements
• also, CPU mining seems to slowly come back
• Miner.Rocks and Herominers.com introduced dual mining, Rainbowminer has adapted to it
• a tons of improvements and updates have been worked into the core

It's time for an update Many prominent miners have been updated, including Gminer, XmrStak and CryptoDredge, also we have an interesting addition: NBminer v22.3 joins our Cuckaroo-force. It's now the third miner that has officially added Cuckaroo29s to mine Swap/XWP.
To make it much more easy to start mining special coins (like e.g. XWP Swap), right out of the box, I have reworked our setup wizard.
Also, a very new feature "PostBlockMining" has been added to furthermore improve your profitability by catching blocks-in-a-row on many pools.

Happy mining!
 

There is almost no day without an updated miner, currently. At the moment, there is a strong trend towards additional CPU mining, since more and more projects try to create ASIC resistant algorithms. Therefor I took great care to add and update the most important CPU miners for this release.
Also, Phoenix has updated to 4.2c, with improved Ethereum mining and Bminer vs. Gminer are in a Cuckaroo29 battle.

Happy mining!

- choose a pool for XWP mining (CryptoKnight, Fairpool, Herominers, Luckypool, PocketWhale)
- either use the build-in configuration to add XWP address to that pool or edit pools.config.txt and enter "XWP": "yourswapwalletaddresshere",
- make sure that Cuckaroo29s is on the "Algorithm" list in config.txt (or clear that list for all algorithms)
- make sure the selected pool is on the "PoolName" list in config.txt
- make sure the selected pool is not on the "ExcludePoolName" list in config.txt (or clear that list. It's not necessarily needed)

Go

Hi!

How can I setup RM to mine SWAP?

Thx!

With this release, I introduce notifications: if you decide to use the monitoring service on https://rbminer.net you may now be notified, if one of your rigs go offline. To get notifications, either enter an email address or use the https://pushover.net service (Android, iOS, PC) and enter your pushover user key in the config.txt.
Beside this nice feature, a handful of miners have been updated to the newest versions, including Xmrstak/Fireice, Xmrig, Bminer and TTminer. Also, I invested some time to cleanup the CPU miners and discovered some pretty interesting new candidates; have a look at Rhminer and nanominer and mine some PASC on F2pool or Nanopool. It's pretty profitable, right now.

Happy mining!

Thank you 

I am mining since years with changing rigs and hardware, but luckily I never ever had a virus infection on any of them.
Anyway, there is always a minimum risk left over, regarding a virus infection. To keep the risk low, I do check all miners against hashes, after download and before upload. Also, I analyse them systematically in a sandbox environment. If anything weird is showing up, the miner will not be added.

So many changes that I wouldn't be able to follow on my own, thanks for doing this job once for all your miners. All we have to do is double click your shortcut! Well... after going through the long settings once...
You certainly deserve your dev fee!

My only fear is, what if a miner is infected and I download it automatically in my system? I have like 3 devs I trust but Rainbow miner is using soooo many different miners.
It's an unavoidable risk I suppose?

Good news, we finally added two of the major pools in the asia region: F2pool and Sparkpool made it into our library. Gminer added more speed to it's Cuckaroo29/Cuckatoo31, as well as bminer. Also, most Cryptonight miners, like Xmrig, XmrStak/Fireice and Srbminer updated their code to reflect current and upcoming forks.

Happy mining!

The software itself should work, no matter which drivers. Some of the build-in miners might crash on the new adrenalin edition. But that should be no problem, since the watchdog will disable them during benchmark.

Barely, but yes, it is still profitable. Currently the best options are to mine m7m or YescryptR16.
Those may be mined in parallel to most of the GPU miners. If mininig together with Cuckaroo miners, it will reduce the CPU mining speed.

Hi dev, can you make your miner fully support the latest stable drivers (Adrenalin 2019 Edition 19.1.1) ?

XmrigCpu? Is this still around?
I have an 8600k, well cooled. From your experience, is there any CPU-minable coin that's profitable? I wouldn't mind mining with my GPU and CPU at the same time.

Some miner updates have hit the shelves, so here is our new release v3.9.8.4, updating Bminer to v15.1.0, XmrigCpu to v2.13.1 and Ethminer to v0.17.1. The build-in watchdog now has improved timing, internet connectivity is being checked contiously and some bugs have been fixed, including the stratum region selection for some pools.

Happy mining!

Thank you for bringing this up! The Grinmint stratum problem should be solved with the newest release v3.9.8.4.

To answer your question: RainbowMiner is programmed, using Powershell and some parts using C#

Yes, that should do the job - there is a simpler and more flexible way that allows you to keep BTC (for example to mine on Nicehash).

• either use the build-in configuration (press C, then C) to add or edit a coin of your choice plus wallet (e.g. RVN) or edit the Config\coins.config.txt directly. I have added RVN and XMR as default/example already.
• now edit the pools.config.txt and change the "BTC": "$Wallet", to "RVN": "$RVN" for every pool with autoexchange, that you would to be payed in RVN. The variable $RVN will be substituted automatically with the wallet address in coins.config.txt. You may use the build-in configuration (C, then P) to change the pool's wallets, too.

.. I will check the Grinmint pool. It should select the eu server over the us, if you have selected "eu" or "europe" as region. It doesn't matter, how you type the region. All region, algorithm and coin strings will be converted to some unique standard, internally.

And another subject... there's a trick I use in order to get a payment in a different coin than BTC. I guess it'd be too complicated to add this option since it'd require many changes on your program and I don't think many would be interested, but if you ever re-write part of the code, please have it in mind!

Right now this is my trick for anyone interested, step by step,

• Go to the software's directory and find the config folder (\RainbowMiner\RainbowMiner\Config).
• Open the "pools.config" file.
• Find your pool of choice or all the pools you're using.
• Change the part "BTC":  "$Wallet" to the symbol of your altcoin of choice. For example: "RVN":  "$Wallet"
• If for whatever reason you prefer to use different coin payouts in different pools, just fill the corresponding coin symbol BUT ALSO manually add your wallet address, replacing the "$Wallet"
   - Wherever there's the "$Wallet" variable, the program will use whatever wallet you've input in the miner's settings.

I'm living in Europe and when I went to (S)ettings > (A)ll , I came upon the setting "Enter your region".
There I typed "list" and I noticed there are two options for Europe, one is "europe" and the other is "eu". Same with the United States, there's a USA and a US.

I opened the Grinmint.ps1 and on lines 39-44 there's the following code,

I had it set to "europe" and now I changed it to "eu" in order to try the outcome... it's still connecting to the US pool so I guess there's a bug in the function which calls the grinmint.ps1 ? By the way, what language is that? It looks like JavaScript but the dollar symbol which is probably used to declare variables isn't part of JavaScript. Maybe C# which I've never used?

Thank you

Which is your default region?

Actually, if you are not in us nor in eu region, the software chooses for you. I will add a new setting to the configuration (Config\config.txt) where you may put a preferred region for pools that do not offer stratum hosts in your region.

Hello! Thanks for your awesome software!

I have only a small difficulty with grinmint. I want to mine in the EU server but it's mining on the US one.
I have no clue as to where to change that, other than going in the config file and manually setting it... but I don't want to do manual configurations that might get overridden with the next update.

Any better solution to that?

A handful of interesting miners have been updated, including the SwapReferenceMiner, Bminer, TTminer and CcminerMTP. Also the rejection rate of Yescrypt GPU mining has been improved.

Happy mining!

Finally I found the time to post a version update on bitcointalk. RainbowMiner v3.9.7.4 has been released. We added the new SWAP algorithm Cuckaroo29s plus multiple pools that explicitly support this. Also, two of the miners support MTP mining on Nicehash, now and the compatibiliy with the new Nvidia GPUs has been significantly improved. And finally, party mining has arrived for Bsod.pw, Gos.cx and ZergPool. The core has been reworked at many edges, too: rejected shares will now be monitored, CPU/GPU mining conflicts will be resolved automatically (if mining Cuckaroo29, for example) and many more tweaks and improvements.

Happy mining!

New version v3.9.3.8 released: this update contains a lot GRIN related stuff. We added support for Grinmint pool and added the GrinProMiner v1.1 to enable GRIN mining on AMD devices. For NVIDIA, the newest Bminer v14.1.0 serves best as GRIN miner.
All other included miners have been updated to their newest versions, with one surprise guest: Tpruvot has updated his miner to v2.3.1
Also, some significant additions are Energiminer v2.2.1, TT-miner v2.1.7 and two DYN miners.

Happy mining!

When I can see profit in my wallet?

@netto7 yes, of course. Both are supported.

New version v3.9.2.7 released, many miners have been updated: the newest Xmrig, supporting CryptonightStelliteV8, Bminer, Ethminer, CryptoDredge, Gminer, Wildrig and more. Also, we welcome back ZergPool.

Happy mining!

can use with nvidia and amd right?
