It takes full advantage of modern NVIDIA graphics cards through the use of unique optimization techniques. We have also devoted great attention to stable power consumption. These benefits, along with the very small developer fee, make our product one of the best publicly available miners. Devfee Developer fee is 1% (2% for MTP) Supported Algorithms Allium Argon2d (250/4096/DYN/NIM) BCD BitCore CryptoLightV7 (Aeon) CryptoNightFastV2 (Masari and Stellite) CryptoNightGPU CryptoNightHaven CryptoNightHeavy CryptoNightSaber (Bittube) CryptoNightTurtle CryptoNightV8 Cuckaroo29 (Grin) CuckooCycle (Aeternity) HMQ1725 Lyra2REv3 Lyra2vc0ban Lyra2z Lyra2zz (LAPO) MTP (see the MTP Algorithm item) NeoScrypt Phi2 Pipe Skunkhash Tribus X16R X16RT X16S X17 X21S X22i QuickStart The current version of CryptoDredge is a (portable) console application. Unpack the downloaded archive and edit one of the sample .bat/.sh files or provide the necessary command line arguments. Example: Code: CryptoDredge -a <ALGO> -o stratum+tcp://<POOL> -u <WALLET_ADDRESS> -p <OPTIONS> Command-Line Arguments -v, --version Print version information -a, --algo Specify algorithm to use aeon aeternity allium argon2d-dyn argon2d-nim argon2d250 argon2d4096 bcd bitcore cnfast2 cngpu cnhaven cnheavy cnsaber cnturtle cnv8 cuckaroo29 hmq1725 lyra2v3 lyra2vc0ban lyra2z lyra2zz mtp neoscrypt phi2 pipe skunk tribus x16r x16rt x16s x17 x21s x22i -d, --device List of comma-separated device IDs to use for mining. IDs are numbered 0,1...,N - 1 -h, --help Print help information -i, --intensity Mining intensity (0 - 6). For example: -i N[,N] (default: 6) -o, --url URL of mining pool -p, --pass Password/Options for mining pool -u, --user Username for mining pool --log Log output to file --no-color Force color off --no-watchdog Force watchdog off --no-crashreport Force crash reporting off --cpu-priority Set process priority in the range 0 (low) to 5 (high) (default: 3) --api-type Specify API type to use (default: ccminer-tcp) ccminer-tcp (TCP) ccminer-ws (WebSocket) off -b, --api-bind IPort for the miner API, 0 disabled (default: 127.0.0.1:4068) -r, --retries N number of times to retry if a network call fails, -1 retry indefinitely (default: -1) -R, --retry-pause N time to pause between retries, in seconds (default: 15) --timeout N network timeout, in seconds (default: 300) -c, --config JSON configuration file to use --no-nvml Force NVML off --hashrate Expected hashrate in kh/s (argon2d-nim only) (default: 100) System Requirements NVIDIA GPUs with Compute Capability 5.0 or above. MTP require graphics card with at least 5Gb memory. Latest GeForce driver 2 GB RAM (4 GB recommended). Some algorithms such as NeoScrypt require the virtual memory (swap file) with the same size as all of the GPU's memory. Internet connection Windows Windows 7/8.1/10 (64-bit versions) Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015 Linux Ubuntu 14.04+, Debian 8+ (64-bit versions) Package libc-ares2. Installing libc-ares2 package is as easy as running the following command on terminal: apt-get install libc-ares2 Notes Antivirus Software Reports CryptoDredge is not a piece of malicious software. You may try to add an exception in antivirus software you use. Rejected Shares There are many reasons for rejected shares. The primary reasons are: high network latency overloaded mining server aggressive graphics card overclocking Watchdog If you are using a third-party watchdog, you can disable the built-in watchdog by using --no-watchdog option. Example: Code: CryptoDredge -a <ALGO> -o stratum+tcp://<POOL> -u <WALLET_ADDRESS> --no-watchdog Several Instances After a While It seems that you are using an own restart mechanism of CryptoDredge (see the Watchdog item). Crash Reporting If the built-in watchdog is enabled then CryptoDredge will generate and send us the report. You can disable error reporting with --no-crashreport option. Allowing CryptoDredge to send us automatic reports helps us prioritize what to fix and improve in the future versions. Crash reports won't include any personal information about you, but they might include: Operating System version Driver version Miner configuration Application crash data MTP Algorithm System Requirements: GPUs with at least 5 GB of memory There are no special CPU and RAM requirements, 4 GB must be sufficient In comparison to other algorithms, MTP requires transferring large amounts of data to the pool. This may be a problem for limited and slow connections. The miner has to do some extra work every time that the pool sends a new "job", so an average hashrate will be a bit slow. Developer fee is 2% for MTP. Argon2d (NIM) Algorithm If you encounter many "invalid share: invalid pow" errors from the pool, set --hashrate option to calculate the start difficulty.
