Warning: Miners are listed here for convenience. Non-official miners have not been vetted. Use at your own risk. All fees are to the developers of the miners.
Installation
Download The Miner from Bitcointalk and extract the archive to any folder.
Configuration
Windows
To change the configuration, open start_miner_etc.bat file and replace the values
setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0 setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100 setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1 setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100 setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100 PhoenixMiner.exe -pool ssl://etc-eu1.nanopool.org:10143 -wal YOUR_WALLET.YOUR_WORKER_NAME/YOUR_EMAIL -pool stratum+tcp://etc-eu1.nanopool.org:10100 -wal YOUR_WALLET.YOUR_WORKER_NAME/YOUR_EMAIL -coin etc
Linux
Open start_miner_etc.sh file and replace the values
./PhoenixMiner -pool ssl://etc-eu1.nanopool.org:10143 -wal YOUR_WALLET.YOUR_WORKER_NAME/YOUR_EMAIL -pool stratum+tcp://etc-eu1.nanopool.org:10100 -wal YOUR_WALLET.YOUR_WORKER_NAME/YOUR_EMAIL -coin etc
Where:
- YOUR_WALLET - your valid Ethereum Classic address.
- YOUR_WORKER_NAME - simple short worker name (like worker01). Optional.
- YOUR_EMAIL - your email address for notifications. Optional.
Double check you set your own wallet and it's correct. Set a simple worker name to track your RIG on the pool and an email address to receive alerts when your RIG goes offline. Alternatively, you can set a passphrase instead to access the account settings.
Failovers
You also can add additional servers. Open epools.txt file and replace the values the same way as in the main config:
POOL: etc-eu1.nanopool.org:10100, WAL: YOUR_WALLET.YOUR_WORKER/YOUR_EMAIL, WORKER: , PASS: x, PROTO: 1, COIN: etc, STALES: 1 POOL: etc-eu2.nanopool.org:10100, WAL: YOUR_WALLET.YOUR_WORKER/YOUR_EMAIL, WORKER: , PASS: x, PROTO: 1, COIN: etc, STALES: 1 # POOL: etc-us-east1.nanopool.org:10100, WAL: YOUR_WALLET.YOUR_WORKER/YOUR_EMAIL, WORKER: , PASS: x, PROTO: 1, COIN: etc, STALES: 1 # POOL: etc-us-west1.nanopool.org:10100, WAL: YOUR_WALLET.YOUR_WORKER/YOUR_EMAIL, WORKER: , PASS: x, PROTO: 1, COIN: etc, STALES: 1 # POOL: etc-asia1.nanopool.org:10100, WAL: YOUR_WALLET.YOUR_WORKER/YOUR_EMAIL, WORKER: , PASS: x, PROTO: 1, COIN: etc, STALES: 1
WARNING! Remove "#" characters to enable lines, with "#" they are disabled and will be ignored by miner! And ensure to use the same address, worker name and email you used first time.
NOTE: Setting failovers is not necessary, but advisable. By settings them up, you can be sure in case of connection loss with the primary server, the miner will automatically reconnect to the secondary one (and so on), and you don't miss out on your valuable mining time.
Run
Double click the start.bat (start.sh for Linux) file to launch the miner.
