Armminer mining tutorial
1: material purchase
1.1: motherboard suggestion: the graphics card mining does not need a lot of PCI e bandwidth, and the motherboard with PCI-E 1x can meet the bandwidth requirements. Generally, the motherboard has 3-5 PCI-E 1x interfaces and 1 PCI-E 16x interface. In addition, the motherboard has a large 4Pin power supply interface, which improves the stability to a certain extent. PCI-E 1x needs to purchase the extension cable from 1x to 16x
1.2: recommended models: 280x, 290380x, 390470d, 470480, 4G and above; N card GTX 950106010701080 and above. A card is recommended for eth / etc mining, while n card is inefficient; Zcash mining a card and N card can be, n card has a slight advantage in speed, mainly low power consumption.
today, I'll write down my experience and tools in bitcoin exploration. I'm also a novice. I'd like to share with people who love bitcoin
1. Download your bitcoin e-wallet first. There is bitcoin client on the Internet. It doesn't need to be registered. It is bound to your computer by default. After downloading and installing, it will change your network data block. This is enough. I heard that it is to download all the information of network nodes. It's global. How big should it be? I've updated it for several days and finished downloading the data block
bitcoin client interface:
2. The interface is relatively simple. With this client, you can make bitcoin payment and collection. You can see a string of numbers and letters below by clicking on the circle in the figure below. You can the string and send it to others. If you give the bank card account number to others, they can pay. You can click "send currency" and paste the account number sent by others to pay for bitcoin. There is no third party in this process, So it's safe
3. How to mine is also an important way to proce bitcoin. Mining tool is guiminer, it is a green package, that is, folder, do not need security, download it directly decompression can be used, find the icon below, double-click to run
interface:
4. If you have a tool to use, you need to find a good place to proce minerals, that is, a mine pool. Now the output of bitcoin is less and less. If you dig bitcoin, you don't know when and when. If you are a Galaxy series supercomputer, let's talk about it separately. Personal computers can be ignored. There are many mines, But it is known as deepbit, the world's largest mining pool of bitcoin. Its website is

mining. You can sit and wait for ore collection. The specific speed depends on your computer configuration
note: there are many ore pools and tools, but I won't introce them to you, just because I use what I said above. Whoever uses knows, there will be a place to speak, and I may not understand others. Be careful, the electricity bill is not enough. If you really have it, you can buy and sell bitcoin on China bitcoin network and exchange it for real gold, right.

1. Download the mining software and unzip it. Right click: "start. CMD" and select "Edit" from the pop-up menu
Paste and modify it to the receiving address of the wallet you got before, so that the mine you got from mining goes into your wallet
2. Double click start.cmd to start mining
for the first time, the words "reboot" may appear. You can follow its English operation, right-click "start. CMD", select "run as administrator", and then restart the computer. After AES Ni takes effect, it can run normally and efficiently again to make money
2 after successful registration, we will see a message like "your account has been successfully registered and logged in!" on the web page, It means that we have successfully registered and logged in
3 we can click the "dashboard" button in the upper left corner to see the whole monitoring status of the account
note: in this monitoring dashboard, we are most concerned about "total earnings", which is the bitcoin earned by our current account. In the future, as long as we open the website and enter the monitoring dashboard, we can see the relevant information of our account
4 next, please click "Settings" in the navigation bar of the page. In the settings page, we can set the e-mail address, bit wallet address, change the password, etc.
5 if we set the e-mail address in the account, if we forget the password or steal it in the future, we can restore the password through the set e-mail. First, enter our common email address in the "email address" column, and then click the "change" button
6. Next, a confirmation email will be displayed on the page to confirm that it has been sent to our previously set email
7. Then we open our email and find the email sent by BTC guide. Click the confirmation link, and then the page will show that our email has been successfully set
8. If we set email in the account setting, we can also set email notification for the behavior of mining miners. Find the "idle warnings" column on the setting page, click the drop-down list, select the time when you want to send the email, and then click the "change" button on the right. When we set 10 minutes later, if a miner stops mining, the system will automatically send a notification email to our email after 10 minutes. After receiving the email, we knew that the miner was on strike
9 in addition, we are more concerned about the "bitcoin wallet", that is, the wallet address. You don't need to set this address first. It's not too late for me to fill in when I really get bitcoin
10 after the account is set up, we need to set "worker". What is a worker? This is the login account name we will use later on the bitcoin mining client. The system will create a miner name for us by default. The miner name is composed of our registered account name, an underline and a number. For example, our registered account is XXX, and the first miner's name is "XXX"_ 1 "
11 if we want to set multiple miner names, enter a number such as" 2 "in the" create worker "column, and then click the" create "button to add a new miner's account name
12 in the worker settings page, we can also set the mining payment mode of the mine account separately. Payment method, i.e. mining payment method. There are two types to choose from, PPS and PPLNs. The difference lies in the mining mode and handling charge. The handling charge of PPS is 7.5%, while that of PPLNs is 3%. The system adopts PPLNs by default. If you want to change it, please click the "change" button under the payment method
13 in addition, we can also choose the difficulty of mining mode. If our computer has multiple graphics card GPUs or some special machines, we can set the miner's account name under the minimum difficulty
Step 2, download the mining client software
1 after we complete the registration setting, Next, please click "support" in the page navigation menu, and we will see the download link of the client< There are two types of mining client software:
bfgminer: command line operation interface, which can be downloaded directly
cgminer: it is also operated in the command line format, but the download steps are too complicated
let's take bfgminer as an example and click download as shown in the figure
2 then it will jump to the download page of mining tools. There are two formats of mining tools, one is 32-bit system, the other is 64 bit system. According to the number of system bits, download the corresponding tool version
3. The client size of mining tool is less than 5m, which is a zip compressed file. When the download is complete, locate and open the file. Click the right mouse button and select the "" option
4 here, I take paste extraction to the desktop as an example
Step 3, mining client software detailed settings
1 after opening the mining directory, double-click to open the "bfgminer" file under the directory
2 next, look at the BFG minier window and enter the address of the mine pool at the URL. The pool address can be seen in the BTC guide's support page, such as stratum. Btcguild com:3333 , press enter key
3, and then enter the miner's name set on BTC guide website after the user name, press enter key
4, and then enter at will in the password, as shown in the figure
5. Finally, you can see that many numbers are changing, It means mining. It is worth noting that the places marked in the figure indicate the speed of the current machine button
6 in addition to the current mining speed on the mining client software, we can also see the specific mining speed of each miner in the "active worker summary" list on the "dashboard" page of BTC guide website
7 If you want to close the mining tool, you can directly x drop it, You can also directly press the Q key to exit. If you want to open more, you can open another mining tool in the BFG miner directory< Step 4: cgminer command line client software
1 if you really want to mine, the official recommends that we use "cgminer", that is, to run it at the command prompt. Click "support" on BTC guide page, then click "cgminer" download link page, select the corresponding system version
2, then jump to cgminer download page and click the link as shown in the figure
3 and then select a version of cgminer. Here I download a Windows version as an example.
4 take the Windows version of cgminer as an example. After the download, unzip it to the computer.
5 open the cgminer directory, find "cgminer"
6. Double click "cgminer" with the mouse, and a command-line window will pop up, prompting us to enter the URL address of the connection server. Enter "stratum. Btcguild com:3333 ”, press the Enter key on the keyboard
7, and then prompt us to enter "user name", that is, the account name of the miner. Press the Enter key on the keyboard
8, and then enter the password. Press the Enter key on the keyboard
9, and wait for a moment, When the client and the service establish a connection, the machine will start mining
10 to quit mining, please press the "Q" key on the keyboard in the window
tools / raw materials
PC with independent graphics card
precautions
if you are using cgminer, the graphics card must support the display of general computing standard, otherwise you will not be able to mine.
2. The program does not generate desktop shortcut by default, so we need to find our installation path to call guiminer program:
here I can see that it is in English mode after running, here I can modify it
3. In the menu bar, we can see "language". Here, we click and select "change language". The default is English. Here, we select "Chinese simplified" and click OK
4. Isn't it strange why the English version is still available
5. Now let's set up the server. The server here refers to the service station that provides the mine pool (bitcoin mine pool is a team mining server)
email is the email account you registered on the server, and the password is of course the login password. The device is software that automatically identifies our computer graphics information
6. After setting, click start mining below
