top ten Ethereum mining software in 2020
in terms of market value, Ethereum is the second largest cryptocurrency, second only to bitcoin. Ethereum's popularity among the holders has increased rapidly because it can build the whole decentralized ecosystem and applications on top of its blockchain. As Ethereum is friendly to GPU mining, Ethereum is a good choice for PC users (especially those with AMD high-end graphics cards). However, 24ker should also warn readers that at this time point, Ethereum's price is $241, which means that even if you use radon VII (90mh / s), your weekly profit is less than $7, The annual profit is about $339. However, considering the potential value-added space of Ethereum, if the price can return to the healthy range of $500-600, it means that your radon will be back in one year
if you already have Ethereum mining hardware and an effective wallet, all you have to do is to find the best eth mining software, which will help you manage the mining work effectively
in this article, we will introce the features, advantages and compatible operating systems. But before we get there... Let's talk about the basics
why Ethereum
unlike traditional currencies, Ethernet operates on the public ledger system, which makes mining itself the core power of Ethereum network. When miners receive the transaction data sent by other members of the network, they assemble them into a structure called Merkle tree, and then try to find an acceptable hash value
only one hash will be returned for each dataset, and the hash value cannot be used to dece the original data. Its purpose is to effectively ensure that the block information is not tampered with. Moreover, if someone changes even one number in any long transaction string, the output hash value will be completely different, and false transaction or fraud will be eliminated
as you can see, if there is no Ethereum mining, Ethereum network will be paralyzed immediately. Therefore, participating in Ethereum mining is not only the mining revenue, but also the support for the operation and growth of Ethereum
what is mining software< In short, mining software is a program that uses a computer graphics card (GPU) as a resource to solve complex mathematical equations. Once the equation is solved, the data is added to the rest of the blockchain
the mining software will monitor the input and output of the hardware, and display statistical data to you, such as miner speed, fan speed, temperature and hash rate
the Ethereum mining software described in this article can be connected to many available Ethereum mining pools
Ethereum mine pool
Ethereum mine pool is a resource area that is equally distributed and shared among miners. Nowadays, it has become too difficult for a person to dig a mine, so it is necessary to use the way of mining pool to fight in groups
today, Ethereum is one of the most famous choice of Ethereum mines. The pool allows its users to remain anonymous and pay only a small 1% mining fee<
top ten Ethereum mining software:
1-ethminer (Ethereum Royal)
it can be seen from the name that ethminer is specially designed for mining Ethereum, and currently supports Linux, MAC and windows. Make sure to download the version corresponding to the device's operating system
in addition to Ethereum, you can also use ethminer to mine all tokens according to ethash algorithm, including expand, elaism, metaverse, musicoin, Pirl, Ethereum classic, etc< Ethminer is a command line software. This means that you can start it from the Linux console or the windows command prompt, or you can use the windows CMD / batch file or the Linux bash script to create a shortcut to the preset command line<
(2-cgminer)
this program was released in 2011. Because it is compatible with three different mining hardware (ASIC, FPGA and GPU), it is still one of the most popular mining software options. CG miner is an open source Ethereum miner written in C language, and provides support and binary files for openwrt router, RPI, etc
the advantages of cgminer include the ability to match your hash rate with zero latency extension, remote interface function and advanced detection of new blocks. The software can be used for Mac, Linux and windows
3 - Claymore (maximum efficiency)
if you are looking for the most efficient Ethereum mining software, please consider using Claymore's al Ethereum mining machine, which can speed up to any hash rate without sacrificing the mining speed
Claymore recently released v12.0 upgrade, which reces the equipment cost of al mining mode from 2% to 1%. The upgrade also offers 3gb and 2GB cards with zero development costs. However, Claymore al miner can't run on Mac. At present, it can only run on Linux and windows. But it supports both NVIDIA and AMD cards
other coins you can mine with this program include siacoin, lbry, decred and Pascal< If you are not familiar with cryptocurrency mining and are looking for the simplest Ethereum mining software, please check wineth
the software is based on the ethminer that we have just evaluated, but wineth provides users with a more simple and easy to understand GUI, combined with "intelligent" algorithm, which will provide the configuration that can ensure the best performance on the new user's hardware
as can be seen from the name, wineth is only compatible with windows devices, and you can find it in the windows 10 app store.

Berlin hard fork will mark the end of the metropolitan era. This is a key stage in Ethereum's history, which is divided into two stages (Byzantine and Constantinople), including several branches, including Atlantis, Istanbul, and finally reached its peak in Berlin
description of ifcfg-eth0 configuration parameters in Linux:
ifcfg-eth0 is in / etc / sysconfig / network scripts,
its configuration is as follows:
device = physical device name
IPADDR = IP address
netmask = mask value
Network = network address
broadcast = broadcast address
gateway = gateway address
onboot = [yes | no]
userctl = [yes | no] (whether non root users can control the device)
bootproto = [none | static | BOOTP | DHCP] (boot) No protocol | static allocation | BOOTP protocol | DHCP protocol)
hwaddr = MAC address
some parameters are not required
the original configuration is as follows:
device = eth0
bootproto = DHCP
onboot = yes
in this case, the NIC is not activated
the modified configuration is as follows:
device = eth0
bootproto = static
broadcast = 192.168.129.128
IPADDR = 192.168.129.2
netmask = 255.255.255.0
Network = 192.168.129.0
onboot = yes
in this way, the network card can be activated every time it is turned on.
built in smart contract compilation, linking, deployment and binary file management
automatic contract testing under rapid development
scripted and extensible deployment and publishing framework
the network environment management function deployed to no matter how many public or private networks
uses the package management provided by ethpm & NPM and erc190 standard
a direct interactive console that communicates directly with the contract (after writing the contract, you can verify it on the command line)
the configurable construction process supports tight integration
external scripts can be executed in truffle environment< Truffle is the most popular development framework, whose mission is to make development easier
installation method:
$NPM install - G truffle
environment requirements
nodejs 5.0 +
windows, Linux, or Mac OS X
truffle needs Ethereum client and supports standard JSON RPC API. For development, some are more suitable, which will be introced in the following chapters (for example, testrpc provides real-time feedback ring coding and debugging)
suggestions for Windows users
if you are a Windows user, we recommend that you use PowerShell or git bash to install and use the truffle framework. These two shell environments provide more convenient features than the default
if you have to use the command line, see the discussion here on how to configure truffle.
The core of Ethereum 2.0 upgrade is Ethereum 2.0 fragmentation and POS consensus mechanism. The adoption of POS consensus mechanism is to improve the energy efficiency of Ethereum protocol and increase the security of Ethereum blockchain. Ethereum 2.0 is partitioned, so that the Ethereum chain no longer needs to process each transaction on the chain through each node
in the fragmentation system, each node only needs to process about 1% of the transactions or less, which greatly improves the efficiency of the blockchain. After the implementation of eth2.0, not only the network performance has been greatly improved, but also investors can rece the investment in heavy assets (+ slf0037). The implementation of consensus protocol Casper and fragmentation technology has made great changes to the underlying protocol of the network, and further promoted the development of blockchain expansion technology, and continuously reached the commercial standard. As of 16:00 on January 7, 2021, more than 2.3 million eth have been locked in the network, accounting for 2% of the total supply of Ethereum. However, this is still only the first phase of the update. According to official information, uniswap V3 has been deployed to the Ethereum main network. According to the official article, uniswap V3 is the most powerful version of the agreement so far. Centralized liquidity provides unprecedented capital efficiency for liquidity providers, better execution for traders, and the core infrastructure of decentralized finance. As far as Ethereum's roadmap is concerned, V Shen said that as the merger date approaches, many aspects of the roadmap are becoming more and more feasible. It is optimistic that the upgrade will be completed by the end of this year. After the merger, the execution chain will run within the consensus chain, and each beacon chain block will include a block from the execution chain. He also said that the merger requires a lot of complex technologies to make the whole process as simple as possible. For users, clients, developers and smart contracts, the merger will be smoother and users need not worry too much. At present, many centralized exchanges, decentralized exchanges, decentralized pledge agreements and basic service providers have entered the stacking track of Ethereum 2.0. It is not difficult to imagine that more service providers will emerge in the future, and the Ethereum 2.0 stacking plate will also become the standard configuration of exchanges and wallets. How long can we dig the pow chain of eth 1.0? There is no clear answer. But it is certain that before Ethereum is completely transformed from POW to POS, Ethereum foundation must take a long time to prove that the POS chain is safe. Only in this way can all developers and users safely complete the switch, so that the entire ecosystem worth more than 100 billion US dollars can truly and completely run on the beacon chain
no one knows how long it will take to complete the project, which is a big unknown, and these unknowns may be a great resistance to the transformation of Ethereum 2.0. Therefore, we are optimistic that the pow chain can continue to dig for at least two to three years

when penguins return to land after foraging in the sea, they need to take an ice cave as the exit to jump out. In order to land successfully, before taking off, penguins usually plunge into the sea more than three meters deep, and then use the buoyancy of the sea to jump from the ice cave and climb up the ice. In penguin's team, the leading penguin is shouldering a very arous task. It not only needs to have accurate judgment on the exit, but also has the courage to charge ahead
the plump seal is one of penguin's natural enemies. Smart seals find that penguins often go to the ice caves, they will lie next to the ice caves and wait for the opportunity to hunt penguins. The leading penguin is like a shell shot out of the ice cave. Because of its fast speed, it passes over the seal and shakes its head. At the moment of falling on the ice, it quickly stands up and runs away. At this moment, the penguin will not make a scream, it hides its fear with silence. Then, the penguins behind jumped out of the ice cave one after another, some from the seal's side, some from the seal's head over. The seal takes the opportunity to open its mouth and hunt the prey in front of its eyes. Finally, it picks up a penguin with a slightly slow reaction, and then sneaks into the sea to enjoy the delicious food
normally, when the leading Penguin comes out of the ice cave and sees the seal, it should send a signal to remind the penguins behind to change their action plan to avoid the attack of the seal. But why is it silent? This is because, if it sends out the signal of encountering natural enemies in the ice caves, it will cause penguins to panic and mess, affecting the successful completion of the landing plan. If penguins have been trapped in the dangerous sea, they will face greater danger and loss: or they will drown in the sea because of lack of strength; Or they'll be chased by a few sharks. By then, more than one penguin will have died. Therefore, it is a wise choice for penguin leaders to keep silent at a critical moment. It stabilizes the morale of the army with its kind silence
it is absolutely necessary for people to prevent the difficulties they may encounter. However, sometimes overestimating the difficulties and emphasizing the risks will weaken the courage to work hard, become forward-looking and backward, and even miss the chance of success.
