Smokes didn't get any updates because there was no need to update something to work properly (the loader is being discussed here).

Amadey may make minor changes from time to time.

Both loaders are good in their price range.

I personally find smoke botnets easier to encrypt. I have a lot of crypts that don't work with amadey and everything I checked works with smoke.

Smoke’s support is not friendly to newbies
