The Windows download is sorted by coin. One folder per coin, ready-made .bat files inside. Every pool region is now covered — Global, EU, RU and US — each with a plain and an encrypted (-SSL) variant. Lighter binary. Cleaned out leftovers that no longer served a purpose. Better documentation. Each download now carries a proper guide for its platform — Windows, Linux and HiveOS — in English and Russian. --help lists every coin and option the miner actually supports. Fix: the .bat files now launch the miner by full path, so they also work on machines where Windows is configured not to run programs from the current folder.

Pearl (PRL) is 5-6% faster on RTX 30 and RTX 40. Measured live on a rig of 8x RTX 3060 Ti and a rig of 4x RTX 4070 Ti. The periodic dips are gone. The hashrate graph is flat now: the spread between readings dropped about 3x on RTX 30 and about 5x on RTX 40. Mixed rigs. Each card now runs its own best settings instead of the whole rig sharing one compromise, so a single older card no longer holds the rest back. Fix: on 8 GB cards, turning the hashrate optimization off could abort the miner at startup.

New coin: Xelis (XEL) — mine XEL at just 1% dev fee, the lowest on XelisHash right now. Qubitcoin (QTC) — noticeably faster on RTX 30/40. Wider hardware: now runs on GTX 10-series (Pascal) and Tesla V100 (Volta) across every coin.

BTX speed: +16% on RTX 30-series, +20% on RTX 40-series, +11% on RTX 50-series. Validated on live pools with zero rejected shares. BTX on older cards: added support for Pascal (P106-100, P104-100) and Turing, including CMP 50HX. Pearl on RTX 50-series: +5.6% — 219.66 TH/s at 609.69 GH/W on an RTX 5080. Smaller package: the download is about 3x smaller — roughly 10 MB instead of 30 MB. Faster to pull onto every rig.

BTX: about +12% hashrate on RTX 30-series (3060 Ti / 3070 / 3070 Ti / 3080 / 3080 Ti and similar). BTX: RTX 50-series is faster too (about +5%). Zero rejects, identical shares — pure throughput gain.

This release improves Pearl (pearlhash) share reliability — a rare edge case in the share proof is fixed, so shares stay consistently accepted. It also removes the experimental efficient mode.

New optional --efficient mode for Pearl. It draws noticeably less power for nearly the same hashrate - on RTX 40 (Ada) cards, about 10-13% lower power for about 3% lower hashrate. The result is better energy efficiency (more hashrate per watt). For miners optimizing electricity cost or running power-limited rigs. The default mode is unchanged and still targets maximum hashrate. Optimized for RTX 40 (Ada). On other GPUs the flag safely falls back to the normal maximum-hashrate mode - no error, no change in behavior.
