Re: PhoenixMiner 5.1c: fastest Ethereum/Ethash miner with lowest devfee (Win/Linux)

Hello,

Currently i am using PhoenixMiner, to mine eth/etc on nicehash.

I got blindsided because of the DAG today, i could mine ETH but not etc because of the DAG, i was using PhoenixMiner 4.9c.

I updated to 5.1c and now everything works fine.

I did some benchmarks and found out that PhoenixMiner 5.1c can mine ETC until 23/NOV/2020 and ETH until 19/JAN/2021 (EPOCH: 388). From 389 onwards it crashes.

Will i have to update phoenix miner again (if there is a new version) on 23/NOV/2020 to continue mining ETC on nicehash?

Also can you add the max epoch until you can mine Ethereum in the Readme please?

Thank you!

I don't know why but at some point phoenix miner starts to show 0 hash rate, but it mines correctly on the pool, the share number increases with 0 hash.

I'm using ubuntu 18.04.

Phoenix Miner 4.1c

At the fastest this issue happens after 15 hours of mining, but It popped up even after 4 days.

I also notice this in dmesg, but not every time, sometimes this error is there sometimes is not
