Getting Started Guide

1. Create account.

  • Register here, or login if you already have account
  • Create a worker that will be used by the miner to login

2. Download a miner.

The easiest grab-and-go solution is to get veriumMiner:

3. Select a stratum to mine to.

  • In the top left select the dropdown menu select a stratum to mine to. This will redirect you to the stratum "Get Started!" page.



  • On the "Get Started!" page select the "Bitcoinsubsidium" menu option on the left underneath the "Config" header. This will trigger a pop-up that contains all of the configuration options



  • From the pop-up select the difficulty you would like and note applicable configuration options for your miner.



4. Configure your miner.

     Linux:

    Example format for known-working miners:


    Example configuration format for the Nuremberg, Germany ( de2) pool:

  • fireworm71/veriumMiner

  • ./cpuminer -o stratum+tcp://de2.xbtx.collective-b.net:3333 -u Weblogin.WorkerName -p WorkerPassword

  • JayDDee/cpuminer-opt

  • ./cpuminer --algo scrypt:1048576 -o stratum+tcp://de2.xbtx.collective-b.net:3333 -u Weblogin.WorkerName -p WorkerPassword

    Example configuration format for the Nuremberg, Germany ( de1) pool:

  • fireworm71/veriumMiner

  • ./cpuminer -o stratum+tcp://de1.xbtx.collective-b.net:3333 -u Weblogin.WorkerName -p WorkerPassword


    ./cpuminer --algo scrypt:1048576 -o stratum+tcp://de1.xbtx.collective-b.net:3333 -u Weblogin.WorkerName -p WorkerPassword


    Example configuration format for the ( ca1) Toronto, Canada pool:

  • fireworm71/veriumMiner

  • ./cpuminer -o stratum+tcp://ca1.xbtx.collective-b.net:3333 -u Weblogin.WorkerName -p WorkerPassword

  • JayDDee/cpuminer-opt

  • ./cpuminer --algo scrypt:1048576 -o stratum+tcp://ca1.xbtx.collective-b.net:3333 -u Weblogin.WorkerName -p WorkerPassword



     Windows:


    Create a batch file(ex: start.bat) in the same directory as the cpuminer binary containing your start command, examples below:


    Example configuration format for the Toronto, Canada ( ca1) pool:

  • fireworm71/veriumMiner

  • cpuminer.exe -o stratum+tcp://ca1.xbtx.collective-b.net:3333 -u Weblogin.WorkerName -p WorkerPassword

  • JayDDee/cpuminer-opt

  • cpuminer.exe --algo scrypt:1048576 -o stratum+tcp://ca1.xbtx.collective-b.net:3333 -u Weblogin.WorkerName -p WorkerPassword


    Example configuration format for the Nuremberg, Germany ( de1) pool:

  • fireworm71/veriumMiner

  • cpuminer.exe -o stratum+tcp://de1.xbtx.collective-b.net:3333 -u Weblogin.WorkerName -p WorkerPassword

  • JayDDee/cpuminer-opt

  • cpuminer.exe --algo scrypt:1048576 -o stratum+tcp://de1.xbtx.collective-b.net:3333 -u Weblogin.WorkerName -p WorkerPassword


    Example configuration format for the Nuremberg, Germany ( de2) pool:

  • fireworm71/veriumMiner

  • cpuminer.exe -o stratum+tcp://de2.xbtx.collective-b.net:3333 -u Weblogin.WorkerName -p WorkerPassword

  • JayDDee/cpuminer-opt

  • cpuminer.exe --algo scrypt:1048576 -o stratum+tcp://de2.xbtx.collective-b.net:3333 -u Weblogin.WorkerName -p WorkerPassword


    Save the file and double click to run it. This should initialize a terminal window and run the process.
