Release 0.5.7 - 2018-07-31

  • Updated to sync with NHML v1.9.0.5
  • Upgraded miner: EWBF 0.4 Zhash miner (for BTG mining)
  • New miner: CryptoDredge 0.8.0 (Lyra2z, NeoScrypt, Skein, Lyra2REv2)

Please note that BTG auto exchange is currently off on MPH, so if you don't want to mine BTG, disable the algorithm EquihashBTG in the UI.

Download NicerMiner v0.5.7


Release 0.5.6 - 2018-07-03

  • Updated to sync with NHML v1.9.0.4
  • New miner: EWBF 0.3 Zhash miner (for BTG mining) Please note that as of writing this release note, auto-exchange is unavailable for BTG, so profitability data is always 0 for this coin. If you choose to mine this coin exclusively (without profit-switching), you will need to disable all algorithms except EquihashBTG, and then click on the "Start" button to begin mining.

  • Adding support to the following algorithms (only for Nvidia): Skein, Groestl, Lyra2z, Myriad-Groestl and Qubit.
  • Claymore Dual Miner Ethash+Keccak is still not officially supported by NHML, you will need to follow the override instruction described in the release notes for version 0.2 (below)

Download NicerMiner v0.4.5


Release 0.4.0 - 2018-04-09

  • Updated to sync with NHML v1.9.0.0 alpha

  • The developer fee changed from 2 x 5 minutes breaks every 24 hours to a single 10 minutes break every 24 hours - so basically the same, but less mining context switching - better for all of us.

Download NicerMiner v0.4.0


Release 0.3.1 - 2018-03-22 - Hotfix

  • Fixing an issue with misconfigured ethminer pool url argument

Download NicerMiner v0.3.1


Release 0.3.0 - 2018-03-21

  • Fixing an issue with misconfigured ccminer arguments (affecting Neoscript and other algorithms)
  • Fixing an issue with truncating the server url on Ethminer
  • This release is still based on NHML v1.8.1.9 due to mixed reviews for the new profitability switching refactoring that took place on NHML v1.8.1.10, I will evaluate the next version to decide if it will be kept in sync with NHML down the road.

All the comments regarding setting up Claymore's Dual Miner v.11.x are applicable to this version as well. See below for more info.

I tested this release with Claymore's Dual miner v11.5 and it worked fine with Ethash-only mining and dual mining (Ethash+Keccak)

Download NicerMiner v0.3.0


Release 0.2.0 - 2018-02-25

  • Updated to be in line with NHML v1.8.1.9
  • Added support to Claymore's Dual Miner v11.0 (Dual mine Ethash and Keccak)

Since this miner downloads the miners package used by NHML, you will need to overwrite the downloaded version of Claymore Dual Miner with the latest version manually (otherwise the new Ethash/Keccak combo will fail to mine/benchmark).

So after you download this version, and run it for the first time (to download the miners package), you will need to download the latest Claymore Dual Miner from:

And replace the binaries in the following path: \bin_3rdparty\claymore_dual with the content of the zip file containing Claymore's binaries.

Download NicerMiner v0.2.0


Release 0.1.0 - 2018-02-08

  • Initial release.
  • Based on NHML v1.8.1.8
  • Fully functional algo-switching
  • MPH balance in BTC terms.
