Overview of New Features in Version 2.2

In its latest release https://miner.finom.io/ has added cryptocurrency mining on AMD, API for rig monitoring via the EthMan utility and an improved system for automatically restarting the miner and rigs. Read about these additions and more in our overview.

FinMiner is a program product for cryptocurrency mining created by Finom and supported by https://nanopool.org/, one of the world’s largest Ethereum pools. Version 2.2.2 supports the Ethash algorithm, on which Ethereum, Ethereum Classic and several other coins are based. The client runs on Windows and Linux with AMD or Nvidia graphics cards.



FinMiner 2.1 supports the CryptoNight family of algorithms (Monero, Electroneum), absent on the new version. The developers plan to re-add them in release 2.4 or later. They will be simultaneously adapting CryptoNight for AMD graphics cards. If you’re mining Monero on Nvidia, just don’t update the client. If you mine those particular codes, then you can continue using FinMiner as usual if you don’t update to version 2.2 and 2.3.
The current release’s key addition is AMD support. This has allowed it to increase its potential target market by 80%, the temporary inability to work with the CryptoNight algorithm notwithstanding.

Key Advantages

• 5-minute setup;
• The fastest DAG file generation on Nvidia;
• The only miner released by a legally registered company — Finom AG;
• Regular virus checks carried out by Microsoft in line with the strictest requirements of Windows Security Center;
• Advanced automatic restart system for both the miner and the entire farm (or rigs), including a drop hashrate below a designated minimum;
• Remote farm monitoring through network API.

Performance
FinMiner has been able to harness maximum efficiency on AMD for Linux and on Nvidia for both operating systems. According to our test results, the program performs on par with — and sometimes even surpasses — the competition. Independently of this, FinMiner stands out with its high stability and simple configuration.



Cost of Use
The program is monetized through a commission from mining. Every hour at random FinMiner switches the mining to its wallets for 36 seconds.

Setup
At launch FinMiner reads the config.ini setup file from the program’s current directory. When launching with the -d command line option (e.g. finminer.exe -d) the miner displays a list of the devices it detects, along with their PCI addresses and their amount of memory. In order to use this function on Windows the program must be launched from the command line prompt (cmd).

The client now lets you deactivate devices in the config file, and graphics cards are numbered in order of their PCI addresses.
You don’t have to specify any pools in the config file. If a pool (or list of pools) is not specified, FinMiner will automatically connect to the server on nanopool.org that correspond to the chosen cryptocurrency.

At startup the program’s console log displays the main work information, including the program’s current version and settings, the name of the rig and the number and type of graphics cards installed.

Log Files
The event log function is automatically activated each time FinMiner starts up. The log files created contain the entire console history. By default they are stored in the logs folder.

The folder where the files are stored can be chosen manually and logging can even be deactivated. Detailed instructions can be found in the Parameters section of the FinMiner Readme file.

Remote Monitoring
FinMiner supports the network API program EthMan for rig monitoring. By default it opens port 3333 in read-only mode without the ability to restart the miner or rig through the network.

The program’s config file lets you configure the port or deactivate the API function with the mport option. It also lets you set a password for monitoring with the ethmanPassword option.

Automatic Miner Restart
By default FinMiner will restart if it encounters critical errors or GPU lag. These errors usually arise due to hardware malfunctions or overclocking the GPU. The automatic restart function can be deactivated using the watchdog parameter.



Minimum Hashrate
The minHashrate parameter forces FinMiner to restart if the hashrate drops below a minimum level that you yourself assign. It takes into account the average hashrate over the last ten minutes, displayed in blue in the console. By default no minimum hashrate is set.

Rig Reboot
By default the miner will only restart itself. But sometimes there are problems that cannot be solved that way. In order to simplify farm support and not restart the miner many times to no avail, the developers have added the restarts parameter. It sets a total number of miner restarts which, if reached, reboots the rigs.

Hey, I would like to suggest you one project which is not a scam.
Have you ever heard about FinCloud? Cloud mining service from Finom AG, which updated its' tariffs lately. Now there is a variety of options you can choose - starting from basic tariff packaged up to pro tariff package.

FinCloud Becomes Packaged

Finom's cloud mining service FinCloud now offers tariff packages: Basic, Advanced and PRO. They allow users to pay less for the purchase of hashrate.

Through FinCloud users can safely mine Bitcoin, Litecoin, Ethereum, Ethereum Classic, ZCash and Electroneum. Previously, users could increase their hashrate only by single units (10 GH/s for Bitcoin, 1 H/s for ZCash and so on), but now they can buy bulk and save.

With the Basic pachage you receive hashpower for any cryptocurrency for $60-76 with a 5%* discount. The Advanced tariff will cost you $470-500 with a 10%* discount. Choosing the PRO package will give you the largest bonus available – 15%* – but it also costs more: $1300-1500.
Become better acquainted with the offer on our website: https://bit.ly/2zJcRSn.

*The actual discount may vary by a fraction or more.

FinMiner Becomes Fastest On Linux

FinMiner, a program for mining cryptocurrency from https://nanopool.org/, showed the highest performance running the Ethash algorithm on Linux among all competing programs. Its developers were able to find an original method for optimizing the calculation algorithm. Thanks to this increase in performance, FinMiner will bring its users more revenue. It can be downloaded from https://github.com/finminer/finminer or from its own website https://miner.finom.io/.

FinMiner is a software program for mining cryptocurrency on Nvidia graphics cards. The program’s key distinguishing features are its high operational stability and simple file configuration, suitable even for newcomers. Experienced miners have access to advanced settings.
The client supports the algorithms Ethash and CryptoNight (including its V7 version) and lets users mine 25 cryptocurrencies created on those algorithms: Ethereum, Ethereum Classic, Monero, Electroneum and more.

The new 26 June version of FinMiner contains many serious internal updates. It has been optimized for Windows. A version for Linux has also appeared, in which the developers optimized the Ethash algorithm, giving users a significant boost in performance.
"The higher the mining speed, the higher its profitability. That’s why we set out to create the fastest miner. And we succeeded. So far it’s the fastest for Ethash, but we’re speeding up the other algorithms," says Anton Trusov, the founder of Nanopool and head of the FinMiner project. "Moreover, we were able to cut down the time required to create the DAG file where the mining takes place. The file is created anew for every graphics card every time the equipment is activated. System malfunctions, overheating, power outages or epoch switches negatively affect miners’ revenue. But with FinMiner, users can not only earn more, but can also save several dollars a day."

Hello!

NOM tokens will be listed on Cryptonit exchange on the first half of June and then you can trasfer them to your external wallets if you want to.
Due to the fact that FIN tokens represent real shares, we must always be able to get in touch with their owners. It is for this reason that they will first be listed on Cryptonit. During this initial period, FIN token holders will be unable to move them to external wallets.
