How to mine Digibyte (DGB) using CCMiner for Nvidia video cards (Skein algorithm)
Digibyte is a very fast cryptocurrency and related to the world of video games and micro transactions. It is a currency at the moment cheap and easy to mine (Although difficulty level has gone up). In this tutorial I will teach you how to mine it (with Windows 10) using a GPU or a Nvidia video card (in my case, the GTX 760)
Step 1
We will join a "mining pool". There are several "mining pools"... in my case, I picked https://dgb.miningfield.com/
Register and make sure you already have a Digibyte wallet (they will ask for your receiving address). If you do not have one, you can download one here: https://digibyte.co/digibyte-wallets (their official DGB wallet)
Step 2
We will go to "my workers" tab to create a worker
Enter the username and password you want for your worker
Step 3
Download the miner: https://github.com/tpruvot/ccminer/releases
- Extract the zip into a new folder
Step 4
Edit the CCMiner config file
- We will edit some lines
The line that says "algo" : "decred" , will be changed to "algo" : "skein",
The URL will be changed to any one of your preference that appears at dgb.miningfield.com
- Example:
Finally we will change the line of the "user" and the "pass"
The "user" is the user name of your dbg.miningfield.com account (in step 1) plus the name of the worker you created (in step 2)
- Example: ticopurelife.steemit
Ticopurelife would be the account and steemit would be the name of the worker
The "pass" is the password of your worker (in step 2)
- Example
Step 5
Open CCminer
If all goes well, the MH / S and blocks will appear
I hope to bring you more tutorials like this ... Thanks!

Genial! se ve muy bien explicado, ya estas minandolos? como cuantos te genera al dia?
en estos no estoy minando por el calor...en invierno seria lo ideal ya que calentaria la habitacion. Estuve minando mas o menos 13 dgb al dia pero depende mucho del pool y del algoritmo.
nice post
thank you i hope to make new posts in the future
ofcourse...
Thank you for posting this, I am glad that I started making DigiByte by mining :) Upvoted!
Nice post I encourage you, I think Dgb will have a flourish futur
Theres a lot of work being put into rebranding it and marketing. It has the potential to flourish...the amount of coin circulation will make it challenging though

Nice article. Interesting to see I'm not the only one that is thinking about this. Cryptos will probably go through a more extreme pattern that bitcoin went though. High ups and high downs before it becomes stable. We really need more insights in the market and previous investment results. An interesting website I found: https://www.coincheckup.com For a complete crypto analysis on every single tradable crypto out there.
great work my friend really very helpful your tutorial
