TT-Miner 2024.3.2

What's new in TT version 2024.3.1

• New: CPU-Algo XELIS (version 2) and related coin XEL
• New: EPIC and any CPU algo is now joinable.
• Fix: fixes a bug with the extranonce for spectre-pools

Sample command line for Xelis V2

TT-Miner -c XEL -P <XELIS_WALLET>.<WORKER_NAME>@<POOL>:<POOL_PORT>
to limit the number of used threads use the -t option:
TT-Miner -c XEL -P <XELIS_WALLET>.<WORKER_NAME>@<POOL>:<POOL_PORT> -t 14

Sample for EPIC and a second CPU algo

To use more than a single algo you need to make use of the TT separators. A separator is just a single or more capital letter. For each algo we need to define the devices we want to use (-d), the coin (-c) or algo (-a) and wallet/worker and pool information (-P). First we define the EPIC algo:

required information:

• -d (device)
• -c (coin)
• -P (wallet/(worker/pool)

for EPIC we use 'EP' as selector - you can use whatever you like as long as it is a combination of capital letters. We want to use device 1. The is the resulting command line to mine EPIC only:

TT-Miner -dEP 1 -cEP EPIC -PEP <EPIC_WALLET>.<EPIC_WORKER>@<EPIC_SERVER>:<EPIC_PORT>

now we add a CPU algo - lets select SPR. Again we need -d, -c and -P. As the selector we choose 'SP' and out CPU device got the Id 5:

-dSP 5 -cSP SPR -PSP <SPR_WALLET>.<SPR_WORKER>@<SPR_SERVER>:<SPR_PORT>

append this to the existing command line for EPIC and we get:

TT-Miner -dEP 1 -cEP EPIC -PEP <EPIC_WALLET>.<EPIC_WORKER>@<EPIC_SERVER>:<EPIC_PORT> -dSP 5 -cSP SPR -PSP <SPR_WALLET>.<SPR_WORKER>@<SPR_SERVER>:<SPR_PORT>

TT will now mine SPR all the time and EPIC (ProgPoW) is active. If we now want TT to mine SPR only if EPIC is active we need to use the 'join' option. We want SPR to join EPIC. Using our selectors for Spectre and epic we get:

-jSP EP

meaning the Spectre algo joins the epic algo. Resulting in our final command line:

TT-Miner -dEP 1 -cEP EPIC -PEP <EPIC_WALLET>.<EPIC_WORKER>@<EPIC_SERVER>:<EPIC_PORT> -dSP 5 -cSP SPR -PSP <SPR_WALLET>.<SPR_WORKER>@<SPR_SERVER>:<SPR_PORT>b -jSP EP

Please keep in mind to insert you information for pool/wallet/worker and device ids!

Let me know if you have any questions or issues.

TT-Miner 2024.3.1

What's new in TT version 2024.3.1

• Fix: Support for ExtraNonce for SpectreX
• Fix: Add Keep-Alive for EPIC stratum protocol

TT-Miner 2024.3.0

What's new in TT version 2024.3.0

• Support of native CPU algos

• New: CPU-Algo FLEX

• New: CPU-Algo SpectreX

• New: CPU-Algo Ghostrider

• New support for Spectre(SPR) coin

• New: Option -hpt (High Priority Threads) - increases the priority of the mining threads for one step to 'Above Normal'

• Fix: Devices are sorted by PCI number now

• Fix: Show CPU frequency & Usage under Linux

To mine Spectre you need to point to the Spectre Bridge. Direct mining to the node is not supported. A sample commandline to mine spectre may look like this:

TT-Miner -luck -c SPR -P spectre:<YOUR_SPECTRE_WALLET>@<BRIDGE-IP>:<BRIDGE_PORT>

TT-Miner 2024.2.0

What's new in TT version 2024.2.0

• New: Algo FishHash
• New: Support of AMD GPUs for all algos except GHOSTRIDER
• New: auto protocol selection for zkBTC
• Fix: EPOCH calculation MeowPow
• Fix: Algo-switch EPIC

CPU/iGPU

To use the CPU or/and the internal iGPU you can either add the device number or add:
-cpu <#cores> : to enable CPU-mining
-igpu : to enable iGPU-mining

zkBTC

To mine zkBTC you just need to add -c ZKBTC like this:
TT-Miner -c zkBTC -P <wallet>@pool.zkbitcoin.org:6122

Prove of concept (LowMem DAG)

Support mining on GPU with too little RAM to hold the DAG file. This function works only if you also have a GPU installed that can hold the DAG. You also need to enable the dag 2disk function. Here is a sample that may allow you to mine Meow or Iron with a GTX 1050 Ti:

TT-Miner -dag-2disk -dag-lowmem -c IRON -P <wallet>@<IronPool>

Please note that this is just a first prove of concept and the performance will not be close to the hashrate if the DAG fits the GPU memory. Not sure if it makes sense to continue with this development?

Known issues

• Reading for core and memory clocks does not work on AMD interfaces
• OC on AMD not supported
• dag-lowmem works with nVidia GPUs only

TT-Miner 2024.1.8

What's new in TT version 2024.1.8

• Fixes a bug in Kawpow that causes 'Invalid Shares' in certain, rare conditions
• Improved DAG management for mining ETHASH or KAWPOW on a coin-switching pool like NiceHash and Zergpool. Allows faster DAG switching if the pool changes the destination coin
• Checked Alephium/BLAKE3 mining on NiceHash
• Improved Hahsrate for ETHASH & ETHASHB3

TT-Miner 2024.1.7

• support for CUDA 12.4
• improved hashrate for GHOSTRIDER
• add support for MEOWPOW (switch from KAWPOW to MEOWPOW on March 18th, 2024 - 22:00:00)
• add support for the MEOWPOW EPOCH switch at epoch 110 to grow the DAG size to 4GB

Using TT-Miner to mine the new MEOW algo:

connect to coinminerz as MEOW pool:
TT-Miner -c MEWC -P stratum+tcp://<MEOW-ADDRESS>.<WORKER-NAME>@stratum.coinminerz.com:3323

after the algo switch to MEOWPOW at March 18th, 2024 - 22:00:00 you can also use:
-a MEOWPOW as replacement for -c MEOW if you need:
TT-Miner -a MEOWPOW -P stratum+tcp://<MEOW-ADDRESS>.<WORKER-NAME>@stratum.coinminerz.com:3323

If you solo mine to your MEOW node please use this command line-scheme (QT-Wallet 2.0.3 or later is required):

TT-Miner -c MEWC -P http://<RPC-USER>:<RPC-PASSWORD>@127.0.0.1:9766

RPC-USER and RPC-PASSWORD is picked from your config file that you use as commandline option to start the QT-wallet. The entries of interest are:
rpcuser=RPC-USER
rpcpassword=RPC-PASSWORD

Please let mw know if you run into any issues.
