I would not know how.  I reported what I read in the cracker's thread.

And, like I said, the sum of the Optiminer returns (miner net plus dev fee) is still reportedly less than Claymore's Zcash miner net.  He charges a clearly stated 2.5% fee.       --scryptr

Don't believe everything you read, test for yourself when possible and make your own conclusions.  Reporting things that you have not tested yourself leads to the spreading of misinformation and adds to the confusion.

The dev fee at the launch of the miner was about 15% and during that time it was FAR faster than any alternative on Windows or Linux.  This was documented on the same day that the software was released, before you make these accusations and spread this information please take the time to do your own research and at least review the original thread on the ZCash forum where all of this was discussed and documented.


Currently, the sum of the miner output, including the dev fee is above Claymore's output when I test Optiminer on Linux.

On RX480 8GB, I receive ~192H/s, add to that the 10% fee and you are at ~211H/s.

With the same cards using Claymore on Windows, it generates ~200H/s



THE PERCENTAGE AND SIZE OF THE DEV FEE WAS NOT REPORTED--

I followed this miner from the start, and the size of the dev fee was never stated.  It is a good miner, I use it, and I pay the outrageous dev fee.      

Don't accuse me of believing something when I merely reported it.  If the developer has a complaint, it is against the crackers.  Instead, he quit developing the best linux miner for the public.

There are hundreds of miners (at least) using this miner.  The developer has earned more than 4X Claymore's fee per miner for about one month.  Maybe he needs a 3 month vacation to cool off.       --scryptr
