Claymore's Dual Ethereum Miner is a popular cryptocurrency mining software that was widely used for mining Ethereum and other cryptocurrencies simultaneously. The program was developed by a programmer known as Claymore and gained significant popularity in the crypto mining community.
The main feature that set this miner apart was its dual mining capability, allowing users to mine Ethereum as the primary cryptocurrency while simultaneously mining a secondary coin (such as Siacoin or Decred) using the same GPU resources. This dual mining feature helped miners maximize their profits by utilizing their hardware more efficiently.
Key features of Claymore's Dual Miner included:
However, it's important to note that with Ethereum's transition to Proof of Stake (PoS) in 2022, this mining software is no longer relevant for ETH mining. The program's development was discontinued in 2018, but it remained popular until the end of Ethereum's Proof of Work era.
