Monero (XMR) is a brand new uprising cryptocurrency which originates from Bitmonero. Being the fork of Bytecoin, Monero is an anonymous and decentralized cryptocurrency with CryptoNight (64-bit CPU-only) PoW hash algorithm and based on CryptoNote protocol. Monero cryptocurrency bears all hallmarks from its parent cryptocurrency: privacy, security, untraceability, block analysis resistance and others. All product features are covered in more detail on this website.

In my opinion the merge mining announcement of FCN by the XDN devs may be by the same people who once pushed for XMR merge mined with BCN (and. XDN DigitalNote is built on CryptoNote Technology that is similar to Bytecoin (BCN) and Monero (XMR). Since they are all anonymous. XDN, however, offers unique features that the later two do not such as Encrypted Untraceable Messages, and Blockchain Deposit that offers annual interests on the coins that are locked to.

With 'dual mining' something like Ethereum and Decred you just need a client (like Claymore) that can run two mining processes at once but in the config file you are specifying different pools and wallets for each currency so you'll still be mining with solo miners. With CryptoNight 'merged' mining you still need a client AND a single pool to support both currencies and I think the only one left out there is Minergate. How To Build A Hshare HSR Miner. No idea why but maybe because the other CryptoNight coins don't have the greatest reputation? Minergate is a known scam so it's not worth supporting them.

Minergate openly brags about wanting to have the most hashing power possible, regardless of how it impacts the overall health of the network and they had it - something like 37%, primarily because of that 'admin mode' that lets script kiddies create bot nets. Then WannaCry dropped and pointed all their mining to monero.crypto-pool.fr and killed Minergate's status as #1 Minergate's closed source mining software has also been proven to shave off some of your hashing power (we'll just call it undisclosed dev fees) Minergate supports scam coins like and scam websites (by running their banner ads) • • • • •. Some people do care about those pools that try to dominate hashing power.

And some don't. Electra ECA Mining Chip on this page. (Not saying which group I'm in personally.) But thanks for the info anyways. Do you happen to have links to any anecdotes or direct reports from users who've witnessed the 'shaving off' of their hashing power? I'm personally willing to tacke some trade offs if presented with a GUI and command-line options which all work seamlessly on Windows, Linux, and Android. To be clear, I support transparency.

I don't support fraud or false advertising. (So help me change my view if this has been happening!) Thanks. EDIT: Just saw your images. Looks like this might be acceptance of new blocks, not of shares. (I also know that many mining clients force you to donate to the devs for X number of rounds before your own shares are logged to the pool you're in.) • • • • •. Anyone who is interested in the long-term value of their Monero should care because it will directly impact the price and stability of the coin.

When mining is concentrated in one pool it means that pool's operators have control of the network. What happens when they shut down? Get bored and move on? Besides all the practical and technical reasons that is terrible it also reflects poorly to traders/investors who are looking for coins with widespread adoption and active communities. When they go elsewhere (along with the miners) the coin is worthless.

I started on Minergate back in the day just like most other new people do when they discover Monero and I'm kicking myself for all the time I spent on that pool because as soon as I switched to a different pool I saw immediate improvements in my returns. There is no point in CryptoNight mining on Android devices and Claymore and Stak-XMR both have far superior GPU and CPU command-line miners for Win/Linux - you don't have to take my word for it, give it a try yourself and switch to either of them for just 48 hours and you'll never go back to Minergate! I'm not debating your ethical position and reasoning with you, not intentionally at least. Just trying to expose what I feel is a true need for a comparable alternative to Minergate if it is indeed as bad as you say it is. I'm not trying to come in here and troll you bro. I like Monero and I want it to succeed just as much as you do.

On that note, do you or others know of any current efforts to create a GUI Miner alternative? One that would work on multiple platforms?

I'm happy to support them or their development efforts if you can point me in the right direction. I have a machine that I couldn't get any other miner to work on, and MinerGate's GUI worked.

I checked out Merged Mining, which is just flipping an option in the GUI. I try to keep a close watch on H/s on diff pools and my different machines. I have not notice any decrease in H/s because of merged mining.

In addition to the XMR I've mined, I also have a bonus of 40 FantomCoin. Not sure what I can do with it, but it's something for nothing.

From the Minergate blog, it says that DigitalNote devs 'revived FantomCoin, the first CryptoNote coin to ever support merged mining'. From my understanding, irregardless of other things happening on the BlockChain of the two coins, the Cryptonote math 'solution hash' for Monero or FantomCoin are the same possible ranges. It's like entering a Monero lottery, but now using the same ticket to enter the FantomCoin lottery for free. The chances of that number being the same for both coins is astronomical, but in this case, both guesses are valid and equally likely. On MinerGate, my machines have found 1 Monero block, and 20 FantomCoin blocks.
