Too much oc on the cards?

You can try:

https://www.4winkey.com/windows-8/how-to-disable-windows-error-reporting-in-windows-8.html

And make sure that the miner is executed in a loop like in the example bat files.

SPMiner #2 for vertcoin fix #4

- Fixed opencl crash / missing the last card bug
- Restored performance compute 5.0-6.1 cards. (#1 might still be abit faster)
- Improved performance rtx 3060 (+30khash) With max oc, 980-1000khash

Can you test spminer #2 fix 4 please. What hashrate are you getting on the RTX 3070?

---

Try the latest build. I solved a bug where threads didn't exit properly.

[moderator's note: consecutive posts merged]

Is there any way to have a log file? I keep getting a crash about once a day, no idea why.

4gb memory in the rig?
Add 32 gb of virtual memory


Also make sure you are using spminer #2 fix 3 build

I am working on linux support. Comming soon..

If you have >=3gb cards, you can dual mine vertcoin+zil. Use your favorite ethereum miner with -mt parameter, and run spminer in a seperate window. Bether vertcoin hash speed on gddr5, gddr5x cards.

Zil dag size is only 1.2GB and mine 45 seconds every 1.5 hours.

[moderator's note: consecutive posts merged]

VERTHASH DAG IS ~1.25GB--

A 2 GB GPU is able to mine VertHash.       --scryptr

"failed to create verthash data buffer" miner restart

on R9-280x's...possibly due to 3gb ram? I didn't have this issue with 1.3. Also lost about 10kH/s with 2.0

I had issues in the past with 2% rejected shares on zergpool but right now am getting only about 0.5%. I'll look into MPH though.

I already have lots of VTC, just need some BCH right now as I can buy new hardware with it directly. Otherwise I have to send to southxchange, wait for a good trade on BTC, then another for BCH.

So there is no issue with a bitcoincash:xxxxxxxxxx addresses when using MPH? Can you please show me an example BAT file for this pool and BCH conversion?

EDIT: Ah it has a login and different system on MPH, I'm set up there now instead.

Thanks

Zergpool is not working good with the spminer (crashing alot and ~5% rejected shares), but you can use auto payout in BCH on www.miningpoolhub.com. This is the pool with the fewest rejected shares and highest payout. Vertcoin is halving in 2021 so you should keep some. Autoexchanging might not be so smart..

Do you think this mem tweak thing is something you can implement? What do you think about the bitcoincash:xxx thing?

I'd love to be able to use this miner on Zergpool with BCH payout, am having to use VHM with a reduced hashrate right now. I had SPminer on another pool for a long time though.

I will have 7 cards running in a few days, and I'm happy to test anything if you need, just PM me.

Thanks for the tip. Build 2 was tuned for the rtx 3060 cards and cuda 11.2. #1 was buildt with cuda 10.2.
I will try to restore the speed on the old cards when I have time. No discord but You can pm me here.

Hi, I have some requests for SPminer for verthash if you don't mind?

Firstly please add a watchdog so it can restart if the window closes/crashes.. I seem to have a crash once every day or two, this doesn't happen for me in verthashminer.

Second is to allow addresses with a prefix like bitcoincash:fdhdfuhjdffdkfnkjdgnjkd because when using Zergpool and getting a payout in BCH, I think the formatting breaks things and the miner crashes before it starts hashing, if you use the zergpool command line like this: SPMiner --verbose -o stratum+tcp://verthash.mine.zergpool.com:4534 -u bitcoincash:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -p c=BCH --verthash-data verthash.dat --all-cl-devices --all-cu-devices... maybe I'm wrong but something in there is breaking it. I have no issue using it on other pools with a VTC address in the -u field.

Also please add the mem tweak options as seen in trex miner, like -mt 2 etc.. I can get better hash with this on my nvidia cards like p106-090 3GB and 1050 Ti 4GB.

EDIT: I'm getting a greatly reduced hash rate on 3x p106-090 cards on this new version from 360kh (spminer v1) on each card compared to 237kh on this new miner version (v2).

EDIT2: example of mem tweak settings I mention. I achieved this by starting t-rex miner until it has set the option then closing the window and launching the verthashminer and your spminer, you can see around 20kh increase on every card, so a nice 5-8% increase overall with no extra power draw: https://ibb.co/k4GCdN0

EDIT3: have you got a discord you can pm me?

Thanks for your work.

Vertcoin spminer #1 has been tested for weeks with a few hundred cards (judging by the donation fee). spminer #2 is just a upgrade for more cards and models, with a couple of stability fixes. The miner doesn't have an API, temperature checking and remote control like the miners from other coins, but has been stable and profitable for a long time.

New version of vertcoin sp-mod #2

- Restored the hashrate on opencl devices.
- Small speedup on rx 570 cards. (compared to #1)
- Fixed hang in the miner when cards crash because of high oc.

---

new fix #3 of spminer for vertcoin

https://github.com/sp-hash/SPMiner/releases/tag/2

- Sometimes the last card in the rig (5 cards ++) failed to mine.
- Removed a rare Crash

[moderator's note: consecutive posts merged]

To be clear: I am not using your software to mine actually.
I will stop a rig and because of that I can make a test for a short while.

Testers earn up to 30% more money while testing because of the optimized speed ?

Well, Testers are like elephant, and old hard drives, have memory.

Nobody will give me back the Rig time neither money not earned when  you released te first amd version in 8 (if I recall correctly) versions in 6 days and they were not working / bad working after a while.

 So, please don't say so : Testers earn up to 30% more money while testing because of the optimized speed.


Oh, and thank you at the developer of a very good  CPU miner

1. Testers earn money while testing
2. Testers earn up to 30% more money while testing because of the optimized speed.
3. Testers are not needed, but necessary in order to get the speedup on all cards and configurations.

1. You're charging a fee for the use of untested software
2. You ask users to test the software for free.
3. Testers also must pay fee.

In other words you are using the community to make money for yourself.

Sunday I will test  it with RTX 3070 and let you know

if you make a linux build I will test it

If you read the firstpost of the bitcrack there is a 32bitcoin reward puzzle ( $1 900 000)

The 2^62 - 2^63 has been found, but the 2^64-2^65 is still available.

The highest puzzle solved is 2^114...2^115

https://privatekeys.pw/puzzles/bitcoin-puzzle-tx

puzzle 65 = 0.65 bitcoin

The private keys were made by taking a random number and then masking it to the desired bit length:

#1 = 256 bit random number bit wise ANDed with (21 - 1)
#2 = 256 bit random number bit wise ANDed with (22 - 1)
#3 = 256 bit random number bit wise ANDed with (23 - 1)
...
#60 = 256 bit random number bit wise ANDed with (260 - 1)
#61 = 256 bit random number bit wise ANDed with (261 - 1)
#65 = 256 bit random number bit wise ANDed with (265 - 1)
#70 = 256 bit random number bit wise ANDed with (270 - 1)
#75 = 256 bit random number bit wise ANDed with (275 - 1)
...
#160 = 256 bit random number bit wise ANDed with (2160 - 1)

Vertcoin is halving in 2021...

---

Sp-miner #2 for vertcoin has been released. (AMD and NVIDIA cards supported) 1% fee

I have added support for compute 5.0 and newer cards including the rtx cards.

RTX 3060: 950khash on x1 riser.

+ stability fixes

cuda 11.2 build, so you need one of the newer drivers to run this on NVIDIA.

https://github.com/sp-hash/SPMiner/releases/tag/2

Betatestesters needed. What hashrates are you getting?

[moderator's note: consecutive posts merged]

sp! come, sell me your improvements, I have $$$ waiting for you... 

Optimizing is never a waste of time. I want my code to be the fastest in the world for every problem. This program is old from 2018 and has already been forked 100's of times. Ppl have tried to make it faster but they failed. I spent a few hours and made it 50% faster.

Anyway. Tired now, so no linux build today for the spminer.

Mining Vertcoin (Verthash) on the rx 570 with hiveos 470khash( not profitable)
Mining Vertcoin (Verthash) on the rx 570 with spminer (windows) 570khash. (profitable)

I see that the fee is picking up. Probobly get more when I make the linux build.

Yes but:
- now it is statistically impossible
- your miner won't work in 10 years or less from now
- bitcoin will change its pow algorithm well before it's statistically feasible
So it's totally a waste of time.
