by | Nov 13, 2017 | Updates

Hello everybody!

One of the most asked questions is, “how can I mine Bitcoin Gold?” … so we are making a step-by-step tutorial.

  1. You can choose a pool to mine from Bitcoin Gold main page under the ecosystem tab (Tap here to show ecosystem).
  2. For the next steps we will assume that you have chosen pool.gold.
  3. Download mining software:
    1. For NVIDIA – Download
    2. For Radeon – Download (note that Chrome may report this archive as dangerous, we have scanned it on 3 different platforms and no issues were found, only Chrome is reporting a false positive)
  4. Get a wallet address if you don’t have one – you can use BTGWallet.online (keep all the keys saved to be able to make transactions later), Coinomi, Bitcoin Gold Core Wallet or any wallet made by an Exchange.
  5. Edit the configurations
    1. For NVIDIA: edit start.bat file and input you BTG wallet address and then the worker name. An example line start:
      miner –server eu.pool.gold –user GSrP5KGxrgBXV1kQkAPy2g3fmgcUeoESMw.MyWorker1 –pass x –port 3044
    2. For Radeon: edit config.txt and input your BTG wallet address and then the worker name. An example :
      -zpool eu.pool.gold:3044
      -zwal GSrP5KGxrgBXV1kQkAPy2g3fmgcUeoESMw.worker
      -zpsw z
      -ftime 1
      -i 6
      -tt 75
      -allpools 1
  6. Start the mining: Double click start.bat and let the magic happens.

 

Happy and profitable mining!
