PhoenixMiner 2.7c is officially released. In addition to the changes in 2.7a, and 2.7b, we have added support for secure stratum connections using SSL (supported by ethermine.org) to prevent the increasing IP hijacking attacks. To connect to a secured pool, use the ssl:// prefix (e.g. -pool ssl://eu1.ethermine.org:5555). We have also Added support for solo mining (HTTP GetWork protocol).

We are switching our attention to 2.8, which will include a lot of small improvements, as well as some big ones but we prefer to keep them confidential for now in order to avoid giving any ideas to the competition

We also continue working towards dual mining and Linux support as our next major milestones.

By "competition" you mean those who you steal code from?

Let's sum up. Claymore claims phoenix stole the claymore V10 (if I remember correctly) open GL kernels. Then Claymore has updated his miner to 10.3, 10.6, 11, 11.1, 11.2 (did I miss a release here ?), claiming a speed increase for each new release. Still, phoenix 2.6/2.7c seems as fast as Claymore 11.2, despite outdated kernels, because claymore claims the phoenixminer 2.6 still has Claymore V10 unmodified kernels.

I find this weird that a miner with alledged outdated kernels can be as fast as the latest Claymore. If it was just a "stolen" code with no dev, it wouldn't be as fast IMO.

Let's sum up: you did not even read what Claymore claims, because I don't see even a single line about any speed increase in his History.txt since v10.1. The only claim there is a speed increase in 11.2 that was released a day ago. Yeah, his miner has History.txt file with all changes, don't be lazy and read it if you want to sum up anything. By the way I can sum up too: I see this miner is just a clone of Claymore miner with same options and API, nothing new. Is it faster on pool? Tested for a day and saw exactly same speed compared to v11.0. Can I believe the most known dev here when he claims that this miner uses his kernels? Why not? Don't tell me that he lies because he is afraid of this clone Grin
