MinerGate xFast – mining engine updated by MinerGate Mining Pool

Dear miners,

We are glad to introduce the Beta version of MinerGate xFast CLI Miner, which underwent a serious upgrade to provide higher performance to MinerGate users.

Updated mining engine is the next step forward to provide our users with the best possible mining experience, promoting its future mass adoption. With this improved codebase, we aim to exceed the current benchmarks of computation speed for MinerGate’s clients’ devices. Combined with existing MinerGate Pro merged mining pool for ASIC miners, this new updated engine provides users with an ultimately increased hashrates.

For the updated mining codebase, MinerGate’s internal benchmarks have indicated the following performance improvements:

XMR XMO BCN, FCN XDN AEON Up to 20% higher hashrate for CryptoNote/CryptoNight-based coins ( compared to the open-source solutions*;

XMO BCN FCN Up to 100% higher hashrate for CryptoNight-based coins ( mining on legacy hardware compared to our previous version.

We are pleased to invite you to test the Beta-version of MinerGate’s updated mining engine and enjoy the new mining experience with higher performance. This testing period is also an opportunity for you to contribute to the stability of MinerGate xFast and speed up the further developments. Feel free to share your feedback in our blog and on the forum.

A Beta version of the updated xFast Mining Engine is currently available only for CLI Mining software. After all tests, with the next version’s release, we will provide you with a more easy-to-use GUI mining solution.
