MINERS
⛏ PhoenixMiner v5.4b (new kernels for AMD Vega and Navi GPUs that are slightly faster when the DAG buffer is approaching or passing 4GB in size - work on AMD drivers 20.10+; re-running auto-tune as needed when switching to a different DAG buffer type, e.g. when switching from ETH to ETC, or back; other small fixes and improvements)
⛏ TeamRedMiner v0.7.20 (ethash: added default capped DAG allocation for 4GBs at 4072MB, see '--eth_4g_max_alloc'; ethash: bugfix for crashes using '--eth_dag_cache' on 4GB GPUs)
⛏ NBMiner v35.0 (added statistics for invalid shares on ethash; added statistics for Health information of AMD GPU; more detailed error information of OpenCL API; reduced CPU usage)
⛏ GMiner v2.34 (added DAG check after generation for Ethash and ProgPoW/KAWPOW algorithms, this feature help to detect overclock issues; decreased stale share percentage on ProgPoW/KAWPOW algorithms; improved AMD support)
⛏ T-Rex v0.19.4 (changes for 0.19.3&0.19.4: improved octopus performance 1-2% on some configurations; reduced the amount of invalid shares on ethash and octopus; added --no-hashrate-report parameter to disable hashrate reporting to the mining pool; added --keep-gpu-busy parameter to continue mining even in case of connection loss: useful if pausing GPUs causes instability)
⛏ NanoMiner v3.1.4 (fixed stability issue with AMD RX 5700 mining Ethash)
⛏ SRBMiner-Multi v0.5.9 (fixed a bug on 'randomx' algorithm that could cause miner to create invalid shares for some jobs; removed algorithms: 'cryptonight_bbc', 'cryptonight_catalans'; bug fixes)
⛏ WildRig-Multi v0.28.2 (x11k algo will use the same algo for devfee, this should improve miner stability on some cards; option --print-devices now will print busID)
⛏ CPUMiner-Opt-rplant v5.0.1 (added automatic selection of the nearest working stratum and switching on errors; improved yescrypt/yespower; fixed latency display; many other improvements and bug fixes)
⛏ CPUMiner-Opt-JayDDee v3.15.3 (various improvements and optimizations)

MINERS
⛏ TeamRedMiner v0.7.19 (rewritten miner GPU initialization procedure; reintroduced single DAG buffer support for recent drivers allowing large single allocations, see --eth_dag_buf; added high score list of the 15 highest value shares found since miner start, see --high_score; for other improvements and fixes see miner changelog)
⛏ NanoMiner v3.1.4 (Fixed detecting 0 Nvidia devices in case NVML fails with latest Nvidia driver; Fixed stability issue with AMD RX 5700 mining Ethash in Linux)

MINERS
⛏ miniZ v1.6x (improved equihash 210/9 (Aion) up +8% depending on GPU; improved hashrate on equihash 144/5 for the RTX 30XX GPUs; fixed issues with '--pers' on MiningRigRentals; combined CUDA 8/10/11 versions into one (same) executable)
⛏ NanoMiner v3.1.3 (ethash improvements on Nvidia GPUs: +1.7% on Turing 16xx, 20xx and +0.5% on Ampere 30xx; octopus improvements on Nvidia GPUs: +4% on Turing 16xx, 20xx and +2% on Ampere 30xx)
⛏ NBMiner v34.5 (improved ethash hashrate 1% on certain Nvidia GPUs; minor octopus improvement on certain 20 & 30 series Nvidia GPUs; improved memory tweak efficiency and compatibility on Nvidia Pascal GPUs; fixed kawpow/progpow crash on certain AMD & Nvidia rigs)

SYSTEM
⚙️ Fixed a problem with "bash: ./miner: No such file or directory" on some rigs

MINERS
⛏ T-Rex v0.19.1 (octopus: Minor performance improvements; NOTE: use CUDA 10.0 build for 16 and 20 series cards for better performance)
⛏ SRBMiner-Multi v0.5.8 (increased hashrate on 'curvehash' algorithm ~10-13%; added possibility to dual mine Ethash+Zil, Etchash+Zil; fixed some issues)
⛏ CPUminer-Opt-rplant v4.5.20 (add x22 algo, blakestar2 coin)
⛏ XMRig v6.6.2 (optimized JIT compiler; fixed RandomX init when switching to other algo and back; Compiled with 0% DevFee)

MINERS
⛏ T-Rex v0.19.0 (Add 'octopus' algorithm (dev fee 2%); Load NVRTC library only when required reducing RAM footprint for non-ProgPoW based algorithms; Remove '--gpu-report-interval parameter', now GPU stats summary table is printed every 30s; Other cosmetic changes; NOTE: according to user reports CUDA 10.0 build is faster than CUDA 11.1 on octopus for 16 and 20 series cards)
⛏ NBMiner v34.4 (fix: etchash error on swiching epoch; optimize: 'octopus' Improve hashrate 1-5% on Nvidia 16, 20, 30 series GPUs, 29.2M on 1660s)
