A Silent (Hidden) Ethereum (ETH & ETC) Miner Builder

SilentETHMiner v1.6.1 - Based on Lime Miner v0.3

The new unified Silent Crypto Miner is now released https://github.com/UnamSanctam/SilentCryptoMiner

Can mine any Ethash or Etchash cryptocurrency.

Main Features

• Native & .NET - Miner installer and watchdog coded in C#, Shellcode loader/injector coded in C, miner requires .NET Framework 4.5
• Shellcode - All .NET C# parts are converted into Shellcode and injected using a native C loader, can be disabled
• Injection (Silent/Hidden) - Hide payload behind another process like explorer.exe, conhost.exe, svchost.exe or other processes
• Idle Mining - Can be configured to mine at different usages or not at all while computer is or isn't in use
• Stealth - Pauses the miner and clears the GPU memory while any of the programs in the "Stealth Targets" option are open
• Watchdog - Replaces the miner file if removed and starts it if the injected miner is closed down
• Ethash/Etchash - Supports mining all Ethash/Etchash coins like Ethereum, Ethereum Classic, Etho, Metaverse, Ellaism, QuarkChain and others
• Remote Configuration - Can get the miner settings remotely from a URL every 100 minutes
• Bypass Windows Defender - Adds exclusions into Windows Defender for the general folders the miner uses
• Process Killer - Constantly checks for any programs in the "Kill Targets" and kills them if found

Mining Requirements

When mining with the Ethash or the Etchash algorithm you need to have enough GPU memory left to store the DAG. So for example, mining Ethereum requires you to have at least a minimum GPU memory of 4.4 GB available since that is the size of the DAG as of writing this. Due to this, GPUs that have less available memory than the required DAG are not able to mine at all. You can mine Ethash/Etchash cryptocurrencies that have a lower DAG size like Ethereum Classic (ETC). The other thing required is a recent enough CUDA or OpenCL compatible driver for your GPU.

So the requirements are as follow:

1. Enough GPU memory for the DAG
2. Supported drivers

Changelog

v1.6.1 (10/10/2021)

• Added Process Killer feature that constantly checks for the "Kill Targets" programs and kills them if found
• Added failover capability for the Remote Configuration URL, add several URLs by separating them with a comma (,)
• Changed system calls to direct system calls thus reducing detections
• Changed native loader code to reduce detections
• Removed Online Download feature due to domain being taken down
• Improved overall code
• Updated miner

v1.6.0 (02/10/2021)

The previous version was supposed to be the last one before the unified miner but I recieved great results by loading everything by Shellcode making it worthwhile to update

• Added new Shellcode loader, the miner, watchdog and uninstaller will now be converted into shellcode and injected using a native C loader which greatly reduces detections
• Added custom tcc C compiler to compile the Shellcode loader
• Added custom windres resource compiler to allow icons, assembly data and run as administrator for the native C program
• Added donut to convert .NET programs into Shellcode
• Added option to disable Shellcode loader
• Remade and optimized much of the miner and watchdog code
• Removed old C# loader
• Renamed Install to Startup due to confusion

How to delete ETH miner?

I did watchdog and stealth mining and ran it for verification, I was stupid, how to remove the miner? Tell me please.

[Enhancement] NiceHash Worker Name

So, the %COMPUTERNAME% part in the "Main" tab doesn't work for NiceHash web panel, as it only calls it "- Unmanaged". Would it be possible for you to make it so that it works with NiceHash wherein it adds a randomly generated name (or %COMPUTERNAME%) to the address?

NiceHash describes this on the web panel working like this:

You can see it says "Username (possible to add .worker_name)" (in the box below is the mining address), but how exactly this would be implemented in your software I am not sure of, however I hope you can pull this off so that way it is easier to organize and categorize all workers in the web panel. I assume this would also be the same for the "Silent XMR Miner" that you've made, so if that feature doesn't already exist there, then I hope you can add it as well.

ETA for Self-Destruct/Auto Removal Date Feature?

@UnamSanctam

Sorry to bug you I know you previously said it has been put on the backburner. But do you have an ETA for the feature?
and does the latest version bypass Windows Defender?

Can't be used with Monero miner

When I lunch both miners, both have same sihost64.exe filename for watchdog. For some reason ETH miner restart sihost64.exe and kill monero miner process and it can't start. I think that can be easy fixed, also I whink it is better to combine ETH and XMR miner together in one builder. Thank you.

Dont work

i turned on the miner on my computer but it doesn't work

Suggestion

Hi there,

Thanks for the silent eth miner. Works great. However, there just needs to be an update.

We normally run the miner.exe from bat, and the bat file contains some settings to run the exe. We can set settings such as using %XX of PC gpu power, max fan speed, stop if fan speed is >XX etc. For example here is the bat command I use;

miner.exe -pool eth.2miners.com:2020 -wal MYWALLETIDHERE -gpow 90 -log 0 -clkernel 0 -tstop 75 -tstart 55 -tt 60 -fanmax 80 -fanmin 20

So what I suggest is, add an input line to the program, which users can add additional setting commands when running the silent eth miner.

Thanks again for awesome program.

Not mining

Hey, i tested the miner with explorer inection but it does nothing

anyway to get it up and running with nicehash?

so I just started mining 3 days ago so i am TOTALLY new to this shi, mining bitcoin with nicehash right now, wanna know if this could ever support nicehash

how about RavenCoin?

Sup. How about create new silent miner for Raven Coin? It have DAG size 2.7 gb about that. So most of guys have videocards with 3 gb videoram and this coin best variant for them.

[GTX 1080 & GTX 1080Ti] Add EthPillEnlargement

Is it possible to add the EthPillEnlargement for the GTX 1080 and GTX 1080Ti to run hidden along with it? Or make a secondary software that is hidden? The one I found needs to open and visible, making it obvious that a Miner is running.

hello can you help me with etc?

I'm can create eth miner and it work very good but when I'm creating etc miner it doesn't work. Whats wrong?

It works, but the worker does not come to the pool

SilentETHMiner - Is This Still Working?

Hey Developers,

I am interested in downloading this however I was wondering if it was still a working project?

amd video card problem

Doesnt it only work on amd video cards?

top1 question

sorry for the possibly stupid question) but I'm wondering, since I'm not particularly good at programming. let's say I don't have a video card right now, but I will install this miner on my computer, but in the future I will buy a video card that is suitable for mining. Will the miner work?) Or it doesn't work like that) Sorry for the question

Discovered big issue

Bro, I've found big problem.

I've tested 3 times, pool place and user place are not correct, it registers wallet adress first, then pool adress so that is not correct.

etc

ETC pool really work on this miner? I just have 0 installations in 2 days, of course the problem may not be in the miner. just weird, XMR works well, a lot of miners (I do not have a video card to check)

SSL

hello, can u help me
1. I'm using nanopool, is there any difference which connection scheme to use. Standart or SSL / TLS?
2. Can this miner mine both ETH and ETC?

Problem with CUDA 10 and hiding function

Hi i have tested the miner in RTX 3080 and it was mining with 0 hashrate or not even showing. Found the solution after tweaking with the code and ethminer it seems the CUDA 10 is not support for 3000 series so I have include the latest ethminer with is up to date CUDA 11 u may try using that for compiling but as the miner start working the --unam-stealth function making the miner crash or in other word unable to use it invisible.

The pull request which was in the ethminer github.
ethereum-mining/ethminer#2133

SILENT ETH MINER BUILDER.EXE ( compile with latest ethminer invisible not working )

SILENTETHMINER-SETHM-V1.0.2_UPDATEDETHMINER.ZIP (current source code updated with ethminer latest)

Doesn't mine (RTX 3070 8GB VRAM)(Detailed explanation)

Hey there. I disclosed my GPU right of the bat so that there wouldn't be an issue about this unlike as with the others that don't know that you need a GPU which has more VRAM than 4GB. But to mention it again, it's an RTX 3070 (and all other rigs in my "possession" also have 8GB VRAM cards).

Anyways, I tried running this on my Computer for testing purposes, and it just doesn't show up in the NiceHash panel at all.

It creates a bunch of the same processes (I did not enable Stealth or the Watchdog at all in order to try this first).

But the problem is that it does not show up in the NiceHash web panel at all. Also, all of those processes really use practically 0% system resources. I did NOT enable the "Idle Mining" option in order to see if it works right away when starting the software, which however it doesn't seem to. The original NiceHash Mining software works fine by the way.

These are my settings:

Pool: stratum+tcp://daggerhashimoto.eu-west.nicehash.com:3353

Main:

Install: (I enabled it for testing purposes to see where exactly in %APPDATA% it installs the .exe file so that I can make exclusions in the AV, which I found out that it is the "%APPDATA%/Roaming" folder, and also so that I can run the .exe for testing)

Assembly:

Mining:

I also created an exclusion in the AV (Malwarebytes on my own system, on other one's generally only Windows Defender) as well, so the AV isn't the issue here (as is evident because the .exe is running and visible in Process Hacker).

So I am out of ideas as to what can be the culprit here, why is the software not mining? Could it be because I "stratum+tcp://daggerhashimoto.eu-west.nicehash.com:3353" and not "daggerhashimoto.eu-west.nicehash.com:3353" only in the "Pool" option? Or maybe something else as well? Please advise, and thanks so much for all the commitment to this.

How to delete?

Sup i'm so sorry but i'm start mi silent miner so how to delete it?

etc

can i mine etc with this miner?

Miner crashes then xmr miner runs also

Hey, im trying to use ur xmr miner and the eth miner together.
Then i run the xmr miner it will inject into svchost.exe normaly.
After that i start the eth miner it injects into explorer and crashes after 2 sec the same thing
is with all other injections methods.

Is all good?

Miner hash rate problem

I have some users who I execute the exe , idle mode
And I saw idle time for the users is 5 hours
2 users has rtx 3090 but m/h didn’t passed 34 mh for long time , and I have a lot of users.
At the other side I compiled a verision of lol miner with command line of settings , ran to those bots
And got 300M/H almost
Means something in the miner just doesn’t work..

I think it will be better if you can make a dropper or memory injector with other miner. Cause ETH miner doesn’t do good job like Phoenix or lol

Doesnt work

I've tried to get it to work for me by uploading it to my rdp and opening it myself but it never works for me. Im using nanopool and want to mine for ETC.

Do i need a password? im pretty new to this so im not really sure.

Would appreciate any help!

ETHERMINE STEAL YOUR HASHRATE?

Guys I think ethermine.org steal your hashrate cuz when I use this silent miner at ethermine pool with 2 rtx 2060 I have like 10 Mh/s
But now when I use nanopool I have like 200 Mh/s sometime with 7 users

Error keeps spamming

Hi, i started the eth miner to test on a vm and started seeing an error, i know that my vm has no gc in it but the error is spamming every 3 minutes. This makes the miner ultra sus if the person has not enough vram or has no graphic card (like on rdp) they can easily detect the miner, will this be fixed in the next update or maybe its just my vm that doesn't work like rdps

Problem with using it with Nicehash and idle mining.

Hello @UnamSanctam.
I am having a problem trying to use it with nicehash with idle mining and stealth enabled.
It shows on nicehash as "mining" but it has a hash rate of 0 and profits also shows 0.

Also when will the Self-Destruct/Auto Removal Feature be coming? :)

bug or idk

its either a bug in the miner or it has to be like that
when i upload miner into virustotal and go to behavior
i see this: https://prnt.sc/12q91mi
does that mean my email is too long? or it has to be like that? because "gmail.com" is missing...

correct settings

Hello, you can help to correctly configure the miner, mine on nanopool. I'm interested in which connection scheme and port to use.
And will there be an update from Windows Defender?

Can I link discord server about silent mining?

Hi I'm create one discord server and it about silent mining with your programm. On this discord server, you will be able to share your successes, help with the distribution of the miner and share tips on how best to crypt or distribute it. How do you like the idea? Can I leave a link to my discord server?

Startup at boot. before login?

So I was wondering shouldn't the program be starting when the pc boots before I log in?.

maybe use ethereum classic?

Hello. When ethereum gets 2.0 it can't mining anymore so maybe using ethereum classic for mining?

dont work

when i wanted to test if miner is working i found dude on discord then he said he would help me set it up, he created the miner on his pc with nanopool and my exodus wallet, then ran it on his pc after 6 minutes i saw that its working so he disabled the miner but when i created the silent eth miner with the same settings except i enabled install option into %appdata% and when i started spreading it, minimum 40 people downloaded it and i saw no results at the pool...

UI is off center

I downloaded the latest version v1.3.3 from the release and tried to use it, but the whole UI of the builder was shifted to the right side and I could not use it properly.
Is this a problem that can be solved?
