【Obtain GPU mining software and mining configuration】
DCR can be mined using Graphics Card. You need to download software to mine with GPU.
Download address for DCR official recommended software https://www.decred.org/downloads/
To configure GPU mining software please note:
- Ensure that the DCR pool address and port are correct:
- Modify the sub account and miner number (Remember to keep the "dot" between the sub account and the miner number)
- When making any modification, only modify the corresponding characters, do not delete any spacing or punctuation, otherwise the software will not be able to mine normally.
1) NVIDIA card single mining
Download the N-card mining software, find and right click on the "start.bat" file and select “Edit”. Confirm the mining pool address and port number, modify the sub account and miner number. The parameter settings are as follows:
ccmier:
ccminer -a decred -o stratum+tcp://dcr.antpool.com:8002-u SubAccount.MinerNumber -p x
gominer:
gominer -o stratum+tcp://dcr.antpool.com:8002-m SubAccount.MinerNumber -n x
Save the "start.bat" file after completing the modification and double-click to start mining.
2) AMD card single mining
Download the A-card mining software, find and right click on the "start.bat" file and select “Edit”. Confirm the mining pool address and port number, modify the sub account and miner number. The parameter settings are as follows:
Gominer:
gominer -o stratum+tcp://dcr.antpool.com:8002-m SubAccount.MinerNumber -n x
Save the "start.bat" file after completing the modification and double-click to start mining.
3) Dual mining (ETH+DCR or ETC+DCR)
Dual-mining means you can mine ETH or ETC at the same time while mining DCR with GPU.
Download the Dual-mining software, find and right click on the "start-ETH/ETC+DCR.bat" file and select “Edit”. Confirm the mining pool address and port number, modify the sub account and miner number. The parameter settings are as follows:
ETH+DCR dual mining:
EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool stratum-eth.antpool.com:8008 -ewal EthereumWalletAddress -epsw x -eworker MinerNumber -estale 0 -dpool stratum+tcp://dcr.antpool.com:8002 -dwal SubAccount.MinerNumber -dpsw x -dcri 30
ETC+DCR dual mining:
EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool stratum-etc.antpool.com:8008 -ewal EthereumClassicWalletAddress -epsw x -eworker MinerNumber -estale 0 -dpool stratum+tcp://dcr.antpool.com:8002 -dwal SubAccount.MinerNumber -dpsw x -dcri 30
Save the "start-ETH/ETC+DCR.bat" file after completing the modification and double-click to start mining.
【ASIC miner configuration】
Currently, AntMiner DR3 and DR5 supports DCR mining, their hashrate are dozens of times higher than GPU mining and the mining configuration is relatively simple. DR3 and DR5 can be purchased through this link: https://shop.bitmain.com.cn/,
