XMRig 5.9.0: GPU/CPU Miner With New RandomKEVA Algorithm Supported

GitHub: DOWNLOAD XMRig v5.9.0

The latest release of XMRig 5.9.0 comes with support for the new RandomKEVA algorithm, which will be used and prepared for the release of Kevacoin (KEVA), since the relatively new crypto project currently uses CryptoNoght R as a proof-of-work algorithm. The new version of XMRig also continues to fix various issues, as well as improvements, such as improved support for AstroBWT, which has also recently been announced in mining software.

XMRig – it is a high-performance miner for the Monero cryptocurrency (XMR) on the GPU and CPU with support for both Linux and Windows. It was originally based on cpuminer-multi, with a large number of various modifications and improvements, as well as the removal of a large amount of legacy code. Starting with version 1.0.0. – completely rewritten from scratch in C ++

Key features of XMRig:

  • High performance
  • Windows Support
  • Small executable file with no dependencies
  • Support for both 32-bit and 64-bit processors
  • Spare pool support (in case primary becomes unavailable)
  • Setting options for the miner via the command line
  • Support for the CryptoNight algorithm, as well as CryptoNight-Lite – for mining AEON cryptocurrency
  • Automatic configuration of settings at miner startup
  • Nicehash Support
  • Open source

What’s new in 5.9.0?

  • Added new RandomKEVA algorithm for upcoming Kevacoin fork, as "algo": "rx/keva" or "coin": "keva".
  • Fixed invalid AstroBWT hashes after algorithm switching.
  • Fixed build without HTTP support.
  • Added command line option --astrobwt-max-size.

Notes

Configure and Run XMRig

To get coins, we need to create or edit a finished batch file for the coin you need. These are the basic settings that are enough for mining. Secondary settings will be considered later.

Configuring the xmrig batch file for mining Monero Xmrig 2.14.5 (AMD & Nvidia GPU Miner) Download and Configure
  1. xmrig-amd this key will indicate which program will be launched. Leave as is. For Nvidia, specify xmrig-nvidia
  2. -a cryptonight specify the algorithm. For Monero, leave this one. For coins on the cryptonight-lite algorithm, specify it
  3. -o xmr-eu.dwarfpool.com – specify the address of your pool. In this example, we have dwarfpool, because at the time of writing, he received the largest number of positive reviews…
  4. 8050  after the pool address through a colon, indicate the port of the pool. dwarfpool has 8050
  5. -u “4ALcw***NroSAZ” after the key -u we indicate the address of your digital wallet “.5c01d3d *** ba44f3e8” after the address through the point we indicate Payment ID. Some coins do not have it
  6. –donate-level=1 set up the commission of the miner. By default, it is 5%. level = 1 means 1%
  7. .rig1 – put a dot and indicate the name of the farm. You can specify any. This is only necessary for tracking statistics on the pool. You will see exactly that name
  8. pause – specify the pause argument so that in case of any error the program does not close, but displays the code and description of the error that has occurred…

It is important to add the “pause” key at the very bottom of the batch file, so that in the event of a program error or incorrect .bat file syntax, the program would not immediately close, but would display an error code and description on the screen

On this, the basic configuration of the miner can be completed and the program launched. But for completeness, we will consider all the keys of the program in the “Advanced Settings” section.

An example of a batch file for processors:

:start
xmrig -a randomx -o pool.supportxmr.com:5555 -u 44tLjmXrQNrWJ5NBsEj2R77ZBEgDa3fEe9GLpSf2FRmhexPvfYDUAB7EXX1Hdb3aMQ9FLqdJ56yaAhiXoRsceGJCRS3Jxkn.5d3c802ee0f8e12e4eb9792722b7816a42178aa29ef7477c138ddb940c55648d.rig1 -p x --donate-level=1
goto start

Example batch file for AMD:

:start
xmrig -a randomx -o pool.supportxmr.com:5555 -u 44tLjmXrQNrWJ5NBsEj2R77ZBEgDa3fEe9GLpSf2FRmhexPvfYDUAB7EXX1Hdb3aMQ9FLqdJ56yaAhiXoRsceGJCRS3Jxkn.5d3c802ee0f8e12e4eb9792722b7816a42178aa29ef7477c138ddb940c55648d.rig1 -p x --donate-level=1 --opencl
goto start

An example of a batch file for Nvidia:

:start
