⛏ Team Red Miner v0.10.8
This release primarily adds support for triple mining of ethash+kas+zil and erg+kas+zil, and extends kawpow on 4GB gpus until epoch 369.
* Kawpow on Polaris 4GB gpus extended to epoch 369 (end of April 2023).
* Tiny Kaspa gpu hashrate boost across all gpus (+0.1%).
* Added triple ERG+KAS+ZIL and ETH+KAS+ZIL mining support, add both --kas and --zil sections to enable.
* R-mode support in dual/triple ZIL mining. Specify --eth_config=R inside --zil ... --zil_end to enable.
* Fixed HiveOS ERG+KAS issues with stray hw errs reported on RDNA2 gpus.
* Fixed additional small issues with dual zil mining paired with older algos.
* Fixed hw err issues for verthash when running with R-mode kernel params.

MINERS
⛏ Rigel v1.3.1 NEW
* (Nexa) performance/efficiency improvements
⛏ WildRig Multi 0.36.5 beta
* improved nexapow up to 8% for NVIDIA gpu's
* slightly improved nexapow for AMD gpu's
* now 2% devfee for nexapow
⛏ lolMiner v1.66
* Added support for mining Nexa on Nvidia Pascal or newer generation GPUs (1). Use --algo NEXA to mine it. Fee is 2%.
Note: The pool protocol supported matches the one introduced by rplant pool. That said pools tested by this version are in alphabetical order: acc-pool.pw, rplant.xyz, vipor.net and woolypooly.com. That said this list is not exclusive and every other pool following this protocol should work.
Note 2: This code is joint work with Iedoc from BzMiner and it is a refined version with approximately 20% higher speed then the code released in BzMiner v13.0.1. An updated version of BzMiner featuring the improvements of this kernel as well as the same fee level will be released soon.
(1) Primary focus in optimization were the low to medium range Nvidia Ampere GPUs. The performance of other generations may vary, but certainly improve the next versions.
⛏ miniZ v2.0c
* Added support for ZIL single and dual mining: ZIL with ETC/ETH/UBQ
* Added DAG cache for ethash, and progpow algorithms
* Improvements for 192,7 on RTX 30XX GPUs
* Added --show-diff option to show job, and network difficulty for equihash only
* Fixed Beam stale/invalid shares;

MINERS
⛏ WildRig Multi 0.36.3 beta
* support other pools for nexapow
* fixed curvehash for NVIDIA and RDNA+ gpu's
* now one --user parameter can be used for all failover pools
* fixed dev-fee algorithms for bmw512, heavyhash and skein2 - no more power spikes
⛏ SRBMiner-MULTI v2.0.2
* Improved mining performance on 'sha512_256d_radiant' for AMD RDNA/RDNA2 GPU's and NVIDIA Ampere GPU's
* Improved mining performance on dual ETCHASH/ETHASH + SHA512_256D_RADIANT for AMD RDNA2 GPU's
* Added experimental support for NVIDIA architectures older than 'Pascal'
* Added GPU OC parameters '--gpu-coffset', '--gpu-moffset' [ NVIDIA - LINUX only ]
* Fixed bug with --gpu-cclock , --gpu-mclock and --gpu-plimit getting applied only in dual mining mode
* Removed obsolete algorithms: cosa, circash, 0x10, frkhash, balloon_zentoshi
Minor bug fixes
--gpu-coffset sets the core offset of the GPU [ defined in MHZ ]
--gpu-moffset sets the memory offset of the GPU [ defined in MHZ ]
⛏ BzMiner v13.0.1
* NEXA! (FINALLY! Nvidia only for now, joint effort with Lolliedieb from lolMiner, 3% dev fee)
* Faster startup times for larger rigs
* Showing difficulty change message
* Pool hr now resets on diff change
* Added share difficulty for nexa only
* Caching zil dag completely (no recalculations on reconnections)
* Disabled Kaspa community fund by default
* Added below settings to config.txt to easily add zil to any algo your mining:
"zil_test": false // whether to test zil or not
"zil_test_diff": 1 // zil difficulty (1-5)
"zil_test_frequency": 300; // seconds between zil iterations (zil windows last 30 seconds)
"zil_pool": "" // zil pool to mine to
"zil_wallet": "" // zil wallet to mine to

MINERS
⛏ Gminer v3.26
* added Firo coin support for Nvidia GPUs
* added Sero coin support for Nvidia GPUs
* optimized memory usage for ZIL dual or triple mining (supports ERG+KAS+ZIL mining on 6GB GPUs)
* fixed bug with -di -1 and -zildi -1 (you can disable dual mining on some GPU by passing -1)
⛏ WildRig Multi 0.36.2 beta
* improved nexapow up to 10-20% depends on GPU
* added parameter --execute-at-start(now --execute will work on nexapow after precompute stage)
* extended statistics table with total power consumption and efficiency per gpu

MINERS
⛏ MiniZ v2.0b
* Fixed issues with invalid shares.
⛏ lolMiner v1.65
* Improved Kaspa performance in ETC and ETHW dual mining by about 6-7% on AMD (Big) Navi GPUs and 10-12% on Nvidia Turing and Ampere, measured at the same Ethash speed. The actual improvement depends on the concretely selected dual factor. Re-tuning your setup is highly recommended.
* Improved Kaspa performance in Kaspa only mining mode by 0.6 to 1.2% on Nvidia GPUs and 0.4-0.5% on AMD (Big) Navi GPUs at approximately same power draw.
* Beta feature: Added experimental support for AMD RX7900 series. Supported algorithms: Et(c)hash, kHeavyHash and the corresponding dual mining.
* Fixed some minor display bugs
⛏ Gminer v3.19
* Improved DUAL mining (ETC+KASPA, Ergo+KASPA). Added ability to use fractional intensity values, which leads to higher hash rate
* Improved Ergo mining hashrate in single mining mode for 10xx and 20xx Nvidia GPUs
⛏ nanominer v3.7.6
* Added EVR coin.
* Fixed password vulnerability: we do not show config via API now in case of webPassword is set.
* Added support new name for AMD Radeon RX 550 in modern drivers.
⛏ WildRig Multi 0.35.3 beta
* improved nexapow up to 40% depends on gpu
⛏ Team Red Miner v0.10.7
* This release primarily adds dual mining of Ergo+Kaspa on gpus, and adds voltage control support on SQRL FK33 and TUL TH53/55 fpgas.
* GPU: Added dual ERG+KAS mining support for all supported gpus (see DUAL_ERGO_MINING.txt).
* GPU: Fixed semi-broken dual zil mining for older algos (Nimiq, Argon2, x16r, and others).
