Xmrig 2.14.5 (AMD & Nvidia GPU Miner) – In the new version of the Xmrig cryptocurrency miner, compatibility with the latest AMD drivers has been fixed. Xmrig – A program for mining coins on the algorithms CryptoNight . Suitable for both AMD and Nvidia video cards. There is also a version for the central processing unit (CPU), but this article discusses mining on video cards and a version for them. The program has a commission to the developer in the form of 1-5% ( DEV Fee ).
In this step-by-step instruction, we will tell you how to configure Xmrig, commission and .bat files (batch files) for different coins.
Edit the .bat file with the desired coin (change the wallet to your own)
To mine coins using the CryptoNight R algorithm, we need to create or edit a finished batch file for the coin you need. These are the basic settings, which are enough for mining. Secondary settings will be considered later.
Decoding the contents of the batch file
xmrig-amd -This key will indicate which program will be launched. Leave as is. For Nvidia, specify xmrig-nvidia
-a cryptonight – specify the algorithm. For Monero, leave this one. For coins on the cryptonight-lite algorithm, specify it
-o xmr-eu.dwarfpool.com – specify the address of your pool. In this example, we have dwarfpool, because at the time of writing, he received the most positive reviews
8050– after the pool address through a colon, indicate the port of the pool. dwarfpool has 8050
-u 4ALcw9nTAStZSshoW...5v7iBwQXx2r34HNroSAZ после ключа -u указываем адрес Вашего цифрового кошелька .5c01d3dd96ac8...a84dba44f3e8 after the address through the point we indicate Payment ID. Some coins do not have it
--donate-level=1 – set up the commission of the miner. By default, it is 5%. level = 1 means 1%
.rig1 – put a dot and indicate the name of the farm. You can specify any. This is only necessary for tracking statistics on the pool. You will see exactly that name
pause– specify the pause argument so that in case of any error the program does not close, but displays the code and description of the error that has occurred
Important add the key “pause” at the very bottom of the batch file, so that in case of an error program or incorrect .bat file syntax, the program does not immediately closed and displayed on the screen a code and description of the error
On this, the basic configuration of the miner can be completed and the program launched. But for completeness, we will consider all the keys of the program in the “Advanced Settings” section.
The recently released lolMiner and BzMiner already offer better performance for AMD GPUs on the Nexapow algorithm, which is used in the NEXA blockchain project.
The Osprey Electronics E300 14 GH/s kHeavyHash was the first KASPA FPGA miner on the market, but other miners will follow. We can expect more KAS FPGA and ASIC miners in the near future.
Cronos is a tier one blockchain with no access rights that was created using the Cosmos SDK to ensure interoperability between the Cosmos and Ethereum networks. Its native token is CRO, which is the same native currency for the Crypto.org chain. For those who want to use CRO or access any DApps built on this chain, you need to add the chain to MetaMask for faster access.
