Mining Ethereum With Claymore and Nanopool

in #ethereum7 years ago (edited)

So you want to mine Ethereum and you have an Nvidia driver graphics card. Here's how:

Go to https://eth.nanopool.org/help and download Claymore DualMiner. Take note of which folder you extract it to. You'll need a program to extract the WinRAR Zip archive if you don't already have one.

Click "generate your config". Fill in the information and click "Generate".

You're going to need a public key for your Ethereum wallet. I had coinbase create one for me.

This will create a custom "start.bat" file for you. Move the config files you created into your Claymore folder, overwrite any other files that have the same name. Now double click the "start.bat" file to run it. You are now mining Ethereum.

Wait for your computer to generate at least one share (green text) and then wait for nanopool.org to update. Go to nanopool.org and copy/paste your Ethereum public key into the search bar.

This is your Nanopool account. Once you have at least 10 reported shares on the nanopool.org account page click settings. Change your minimum payout from 0.2 to 0.05 to get paid faster.

You should be good to go now. I've been running Claymore for around 400 hours and it's only crashed twice. Make sure to check it once and a while and create a shortcut to the "start.bat" file on your desktop.

If your computer lags, you can modify the "start.bat" file with any text editor to lower the percentage of GPU that Claymore is using.

I hope this tutorial gets some of you #steemians up and running Ethereum mining. Have a good day fam.
