Get Miner
Please note that code is developed on the dev branch, if you want to check out the latest updates, before they are merged on main branch, please refer there. Master branch will always point to a version that we consider stable, so you can download the code by simply typing:
Code: releases section.
Start Mining
Miner has 2 ways of initial configuring: simple and advanced. The simple method will prompt user with minimum information. Required answers are y , (or yes), n , (or no):
Simple setup:
- Use simple setup method? y
- Please enter the currency that you want to mine: Enter currency or mining algorithm
- Enter pool address (pool address
ort): Enter pool connection addressort - Username (wallet address or pool login): Enter wallet address
- Password (mostly empty or x): press Enter
- Does this pool port support TLS/SSL? Use no if unknown. (y/N): press y or n
Advanced setup:
- Use simple setup method? n
- Do you want to use the HTTP interface? Unlike the screen display, browser interface is not affected by the GPU lag. If you don't want to use it, please enter 0, otherwise enter port number that the miner should listen on: 5656(can be any number)
- Please enter the currency that you want to mine: Enter currency or mining algorithm
- Enter pool address (pool addressort): Enter pool connection addressort
- Username (wallet address or pool login): Enter wallet address
- Password (mostly empty or x): Enter password if needed, otherwise press Enter
- Rig identifier for pool-side statistics (needs pool support). Can be empty: Enter rig name or press Enter
- Does this pool port support TLS/SSL? Use no if unknown. (y/N) Enter y or n
- Do you want to use nicehash on this pool? (y/N) n
- Do you want to use multiple pools? (y/N) Enter y if you want to se up backup pool or n
Default Developer Donation
By default, the miner will donate 2% of the hashpower (2 minutes in 100 minutes) to my pool. (If you want to change that, edit donate-level.hpp before you compile the miner from source files).
