You are aware that the original SGminer contains dozens of kernels, right? That's just not enough to call it a scam.

I'm not defending NanoxX, fwiw he could very well be a scammer... but I just like to call for proof when some attacker on here says he has. So far, I haven't seen any.

Original sgminer is dated what date ? Probably spent years to develop and upgrade the miner with no doubt . And actually why should someone download a virus to test it in order to proove it is? I would expect a tirth party trusted review or at least upload evidence the miner is running - discord telegram grpups or whatever . With current topics about new miners everyone should be insta marked as scam and proven otherwise in order to protect newbies or curious people. And nowadays 100% of topics for new miners claiming huge speeds , lowest defvee and all kernels for every algo and so on are scams . I dont like your position to try to defend people with fake miners because of the reasons i posted .

All I'm saying is don't label something before you know what it is, that's all.

I agree with you in principle, and yes, in this instance, you were correct. NanoXx's miner is actually a scam and contains a virus. As said, I'm not defending him... But somebody's got to test or else it's all just baseless accusations. Plenty of other miners were released in the last year (CryptoDredge, T-Rex, Teamred etc etc) and they didn't have a discord or Telegram group when they started.
