nsfminer VS NiceHash QuickMiner

wget https://github.com/no-fee-ethereum-mining/nsfminer/releases/download/v1.3.14/nsfminer_1.3.14-ubuntu_20.04-cuda_11.3-opencl.tgz tar xzvf nsfminer_1.3.14-ubuntu_20.04-cuda_11.3-opencl.tgz cd nsfminer ./nsfminer -P stratum1+tcp://[email protected]:6688 --retry-max 0

I discovered ethminer that time and was happy to see great example of collaboration in crypto dev community, it was outdated for newest CUDA, so I found nsfminer, that's the fork updated by one of previous contributors. It has no DEV fee and based on original ethminer, so I pretty much trust the code, even if it has no maintenance since mid of 2021.

I've never used it, but NSFMiner is supposed to be a fork of Ethminer, except the author updated it to support 30 series. https://github.com/no-fee-ethereum-mining/nsfminer

Not really. There are protocols between miner software and pool operators. There are also some miner software out there that can evaluate prior to submission to the pool if a hash result is invalid or not. The open source ethminer used to do it until it's development stopped. Pretty sure some devs forked the code into NSFminer.

I've never looked for a free one so I don't know how good these are but I found two in 1min. One & Two

After running benchmarks on Phoenix, SRBMiner, TeamRedMiner, etc. & reading the 2miners.com blog comparing ETH miners for AMD and Nvidia and hours of google searching I decided to try No Stinking Fee Ethash Miner: https://github.com/no-fee-ethereum-mining/nsfminer

Nice! Glad to see more people releasing (or rather updating) open-source miners. I've been using nsfminer ever since I switched from T-Rex and it's been pretty nice. A 1% fee isn't a big deal for the 60 MH/s I get but it still feels good to know I'm contributing to a decentralized network using open source software. Maybe worth a look if you plan on continuing to update your fork :)

Cuda works, yes. I didn't build from source, I downloaded the release here: https://github.com/no-fee-ethereum-mining/nsfminer/releases/download/v1.3.5/nsfminer_1.3.5-ubuntu_20.04-opencl.tgz

As a beginner, you can try out Nicehash. You will earn a few percent less, but you can start in a few minutes and they have a tool that doesn't require making any configs.

Hi! I suggest updating to version 0.5.5.1 RC, as this fixes an issue with rejected shares found on the latest stable release.

Try this version: https://github.com/nicehash/NiceHashQuickMiner/releases/tag/v0.5.5.1_RC

Good to know it isn't just me. Few folks reporting the same thing here: https://github.com/nicehash/NiceHashQuickMiner/issues/808

You can get it from their github page https://github.com/nicehash/NiceHashQuickMiner/releases/tag/v0.5.4.0_RC
