Download CryptoDredge v0.21.0 (NVIDIA GPU Miner)
CryptoDredge v0.21.0 (NVIDIA GPU Miner) is an easy to use and highly optimized GPU miner. Thanks to unique optimization methods, the miner makes full use of the capabilities of modern NVIDIA graphics cards. CryptoDredge also pays great attention to stable power consumption. These advantages, as well as a small commission (Dev Fee – 1%, 2% for MTP), make this software one of the best public miners.

- Windows 7 / 8.1 / 10 (64-bit)
Linux
- Ubuntu 14.04+, Debian 8+ (64-bit)
Libc-ares2 package You can install the libc-ares2 package using the following command through the terminal: apt-get install libc-ares2

Fast start
The current version of CryptoDredge is a (portable) console application. Unzip the downloaded archive and edit one of the .bat / .sh files or pass the necessary arguments to the application via the command line.
Example:
Code:CryptoDredge -a <ALGO> -o stratum+tcp://<POOL> -u <WALLET_ADDRESS> -p <OPTIONS>
Additionally
Disabling miner commission
To disable commission in the miner, you can use the free utility to disable commission: NoDevFee (NoFee)
Antivirus alerts
CryptoDredge is not part of the malware. You can try adding miner to antivirus exceptions.
Rejected Balls
There are many reasons for a rejected ball. Main reasons:
- high network latency
- overloaded pool
- aggressive overclocking of video cards
Watchdog
If you use a third-party watchdog, you can disable the built-in option –no-watchdog.
Example
Code:CryptoDredge -a <ALGO> -o stratum+tcp://<POOL> -u <WALLET_ADDRESS> --no-watchdog
Multiple instances after a while
It seems that you are using your own miner restart mechanism (see Watchdog point).
Bug reports
When the built-in Watchdog is on, the miner will send us error reports in case of a crash. You can disable automatic sending of reports using the –no-crashreport parameter. Bug reports help us prioritize and track the most pressing issues.
Error reports will not contain any personal information about you, but they may include:
- Operating system version
- Driver version
- Miner configuration
- Crash dump
MTP algorithm
System requirements:
- Video cards with a minimum of 5 GB of memory
- There are no special requirements for the processor and RAM, 4 GB should be enough
For MTP commission 2%
By Compared to other algorithms, MTP requires the transfer of large volumes data per pool. This can be a problem for limited or slow connections.
Miner must perform additional work every time the pool sends a new “job”, so the average the hash rate will be slightly less.
Argon2d (NIM)
If you encounter a lot of mistakes "invalid share: invalid pow",
set parameter --hashrate
, to calculate the initial complexity.
