They dont work for me sadly, I just get message binding to CPU threads, then nothing happens.

Had the same problem (actually still do). If the connection protocol is stratum+tcp, everything works fine, but if the host protocol is http or an IP, I get the same error.

Will get a fix to this.

Yeah, I usually simplify my personal builds to strip getwork (HTTP) stuff - causes branching in the miner thread.

I am looking for volunteers with Haswell class AVX2 processors to test and benchmark a new Windows 64 bit minerd.exe for me, since I don't currently have access to one. I need you to tell me a) if it actually works and b) how fast/slow it compares to others that you have already benchmarked on your machine.

Any takers? I will post the link Cheesy

Windows 32 bit users need not feel left out. I have a new one for you already. It will blow your socks off.

Is it based on my code? Also, have you looked at the code yet?

Yes of course it is a compilation of your code Wink

Or rather, it is a pre-compilation using vanilla Cygwin instead of my custom Msys/Mingw64 compiler.

I have not looked at the code myself, since I am no kind of C programmer Sad

I'm sure it is very good code. Cheesy

No really, it is !@*@*! fast mate. Superb job.

I need your XMG addy to send your bounty.

Technically - it doesn't count. You disallowed editing the miner. But if you still want to give it to me, here: 99WoLF8NyL9QukPj9ZjrBUXYYo74RMb5iB

So I got the wolf0 i7 miner to work, getting really good speeds, but now it gets detected as a Trojan Horse.
And every time I remove it from the quarantine and add it to the safe list, it gets redetected as a different name.
Any ideas?

Can you try the following miner:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/coinmagi/files/m-miner/Wolf-m7m-cpuminer-V2/

These were compiled under windows machine and zipped under linux, not sure zipping is the critical part. I got the same thing when McAFee is on, but pretty fine with the new miner.

Spexx, what's your opinion regarding the AV software? seems like people never run into problems with your software package.

~135 khash/s now and no antivirus warning.
Thats a 145% increase over the original miner

Nevermind, after a while of running, McAfee decided to do it again.
That's unfortunate..

That's McAfee for you. Get rid. Try Avast (free version).

Firstly thanks Wolf for the work and agreement by offering bounties to release his optimized miner. Based on his code, I've worked on it a little bit and got about 50% further speed boost.

https://sourceforge.net/projects/coinmagi/files/m-miner/Wolf-m7m-cpuminer-V2/

Uhmmm, source code? Would like to get it to work on my linux machine and possibly my Odroid too. Grin

Hi Joe,
Great work!
Could you post a Linux version of the miner - either the source or a statically linked generic version?
Your posted generic version brought my Athlon on Windows 7 from 5.03 to 6.3 kHash/s
EDIT: Not 6.3, but 7.41 whoa

Whenever you get a file which your anti-virus reports as a Trojan (or whatever) then upload it to https://www.virustotal.com/ for a second, third, fourth, fifth, etc opinion. The results are quite revealing, even fascinating. I do this routinely with all my software releases before publishing them.

Thanks, good to know about this. I got "Detection ratio: 6 / 57" Huh

, any suggestions to remove them?

Of those 6 detections, 5 are correctly identified as a miner and most likely the commercial version of the AV will simply flag the file up as a PUP (which you can allow to pass). I would not worry about the last one.

The best way to get AV detections removed is to send a sample of the software directly to the AV vendor via the AV software user interface. Their web sites usually have an anonymous file sample upload facility if you do not have the software itself. They are quite good about removing false positives. They all know full well that code pattern-based malware detection is seriously old hat these days anyway and next to useless.

Check your anti-virus settings. There are probably multiple protection modules and you might need to add the program to multiple safe-lists. You may have, for example, a "file scan" exclusion list and a "on access" exclusion list. Which anti-virus software is that? The better ones usually either ignore mining software altogether or merely report it as a "PUP" (Potentially Unwanted Program).

The results are quite revealing, even fascinating. I do this routinely with all my software releases before publishing them (which might account for the fact that most anti-virus software does not object to my software - Virustotal is a feeder site for the AV industry).

Of course you can always just turn your anti-virus off completely. Some of them are really bad bloatware anyway and just slow your machine down. Imho, if you have Kaspersky, Symantec or McAfee then it should be uninstalled immediately Cheesy

Just getting rid of any of those completely is a job in itself.

Personally, for anti-virus protection I like to use a combination of Malwarebytes Antimalware (paid version) and Avast (free version) because the combination gives a fair level of protection if I think I might need it where I am going, or can be switched off/on completely with just a few mouse clicks. Mostly they are switched off and thus do not interfere with the miner. For maximum protection I would use Emsisoft for its excellent behavior-based protection module. Then there is Malwarebytes Antiexploit for that added little bit of protection against zero-day exploits. There are some issues with getting all four of these to run together, but it can be done ... if I'm that paranoid.

Having said all that, the best protection against computer viruses is be very wary and trust nothing. Shields up Captain. Keep your software fully up to date and never believe it when a web page says you need to download a codec or Flash Player update or Media Player update (or any kind of update) to access some content.

Sorry for such late response, but I gusss that it's better to give an update. Finally bought some more XMG and also mined a little, now all the coins are back to wallet and PoS seems to have started good.

Let me know if you run into issues or any questions.

When it's staking, what causes the stake reward to be Generated but not accepted? I have two stakes in a row that is having this status Huh

I am hardly able to give the reasons, it would be better if we can locate detail information regarding these invalid blocks from debug.log.

https://sourceforge.net/projects/coinmagi/files/m-miner/Wolf-m7m-cpuminer-V2/

To mention, getting the higher hashrate is not the goal of this coin; instead, that allows one to control his mining hashrate in a greater range as desired. One will have the greater ability, so greater responsibility ( Wink

) to secure PoW (block reward / network).

#1, less power consumption to attain the same speed (as before), i.e., more energy saved

#2, with less number of generic miners we can achieve reasonably high hashrate in order to combat the big miners, though this is more or less a "dream" as I wished coming a day without superb miners.

@NeedIfFindIt It might not be that straightforward to slow down the hashrate according to the block reward, but we may need a more smart approach to adjust the speed. Since the big miners are around, whenever generic miners slow down their hashrate, blocks (higher reward) are mined mostly by big miners. I wish we can mitigate the hashrate a bit one can live with but still provide secure to the PoW network.

I'll get the "-e" option for the new miner in order to adjust the CPU usage (to "hide" it effectively in case one needs that Cheesy

).

Wow! I'm %100 faster mining now!

I'm getting 20khs+ with my good old i5-2410m

Thanks for the offers to test the minerd, but I needed responses long ago. Now my son is awake I can use his Haswell and I can tell you that the new minerd I compiled for Haswell works just fine and is faster than anything else out there for Windows.

I now have a collection of new Windows XMG miners for 32 bit, Generic 64 bit, 64 bit AVX and 64 bit AVX2. They are good, but I can get them to run even faster given a bit of time. My main problem is that the source code does not support http/getwork so solo mining with these new miners is simply not possible. This also means that they are not fully compatible with my software suite, so I can't really release them as an "official" update - that will have to wait until a patched version of the source code is available. Hopefully that will be soon, because I am not going to put hours upon hours of effort into it until that is so.

What I will do is put a little package together with some instructions on how to use it with my software suite - you will have to manually edit one file but it is no more complicated than that because I anticipated the use of "other" miners when I wrote it

Watch this thread for details a bit later.

Awesome Spexx!

Not any more it isn't. Now all it represents is wasted time. I shall not be doing anything more now until things have settled down and we have an official source for a fully optimized miner with full operational support.

We need a Windows 32 bit version of this new generic minerd asap. I don't have the source.

It's not supporting http yet, I'll get that sorted out.
