RE: How to CPU Pool Mine Bismuth on Ubuntu 16.04
*Post not allowing editing. See updated guide below. Credit to Nobit
Here is an updated guide to mine bismuth on https://bismuth.acc-pool.pw
I recommend using google or digital ocean for CPU mining. You should get around 300k-500k h/s per Core. Price per core can vary between 0,01 cent and 0,029 cent/hour.
Fire up a CPU optimized droplet
Install ubuntu
Install dependencies
- sudo apt-get install python-twisted
- sudo apt-get install python-pip
- sudo apt-get install python-pip --fix-missing
- sudo apt-get install python-socks
- sudo apt-get install unzip
Download miner zip file
wget "https://www.dropbox.com/s/reeg9btnylndwrj/MinerV3.zip?dl=0"
Unzip Miner file
- unzip MinerV3.zip?dl=0
CD into miner file
- cd MinerV3
Create text file to use for launching miner
- touch startminer.bash
Edit startminer.bash for your address, worker name and threads
- nano startminer.bash
startminer.bash default text example to put in startminer.bash file
./miner bismuthaddress rigname
Replace bismuthaddress with your address (see 11.)
chmod files to be executable
- chmod +x startminer.bash
- chmod +x miner
9 1/2.
- tmux ( If not installed run * sudo apt-get install tmux )
Then run:
./startminer.bash
Then press ctr + b + d. You can then close the SSH session and the miner will keep running.
On reconnect to reopen to terminal window with the miner running use this command.
- tmux attach
- start miner using the startminer.bash file (If you used tmux for vps then no need to do this command again. Ignore 9 1/2 if installing to mine on a local machine)
- ./startminer.bash
- Link for node and wallet https://github.com/hclivess/Bismuth/releases/ or use the online wallet made by euroline https://biswallet.acc-pool.pw
i receive the following error:
./miner: error while loading shared libraries: libpython2.7.so.1.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
