Check out an alpha HOWTO for using MacMiner's bfgminer functionality at. As pools reopen, every state and/or local governing body will have various rules and guidelines in place to keep swimmers protected from the coronavirus and the associated COVID-19 illness. Once MacMiner is configured and running, you can "ps -A | grep bfgminer|minerd|cgminer" and you are off to the races building your own JSON config files (typically residing in your ~/Library/Application Support/MacMiner directory examine the nf & nf files written when you save your pool settings) that can be used to execute the miners (i.e., bfgminer, cgminer, minerd) with a text terminal. That way "which bfgminer", "which cgminer", and "which minerd" will work, and you don't have to type fully qualified paths to the executables.

This Mining software is still a little rough around the edges, but software updates are automated, and require your approval.īefore executing the miners outside of MacMiner be sure to update your shell (such as the. Need time to exercise this functionality.) The performance of multiple ASIC devices can be seen from the "API Output" view. (You can guess what miner the "CGminer" view executes.

I've exercised minerd/(cpuminer) functionality associated with MacMiner's "CPUminer" view for mining Litecoins, but not recommended for Mac Mini - overheats unit. Albeit, not all pools support both STM & GBT.

Decentralized Mining: P2Pool through the Fabulous Panda P2Pool Service Provider and others). I've exercised bfgminer functionality associated with MacMiner's "BFGMiner" and "FPGA/ASIC Miner" views using both the STM and GBT protocols at a number of different pools (e.g., the usual Centralized Mining suspects: BTC Guild, BitMinter, EclipseMC, Eligius. This GUI interface is mining pool agnostic because it can effectively interface to centralized pools and natively supports decentralized pooling, i.e., P2Pool. Been using the Open Source MacMiner for over a month.:-) This mining GUI is mining engine agnostic because it natively supports bfgminer, cgminer and cpuminer/(minerd) under the hood on Mac Platforms.
