Faster Apple Silicon mining. A new optimized Metal solver (opt135) scans about 40% more nonces per second on the same Mac. Consensus-verified bit-for-bit identical to the previous solver before shipping, so every share the pool credited before it still credits, just more of them.

Also connects on restrictive networks (hotel/office Wi-Fi) without a VPN, by falling back to a secure TLS connection on port 443 when the plain mining port is blocked.

Runs on macOS Ventura 13 and up (Sonoma, Sequoia included). Auto-updates, so most Macs get it on their own within about 30 minutes.

Apple Silicon only. Windows and Linux unchanged.
