Ixian mining was introduce in BzMiner v9. This guide will instruct you how to use BzMiner to mine Ixian.
NOTE: There is only one network protocol BzMiner supports for Ixian right now, the GetWork protocol; http
and https
. Solo mining to a node currently uses the same protocol as the pools.
Start by downloading the latest version of bzminer, found here. Then extract the contents of the archive.
There is a reference script (ixi.bat
for windows, ixi.sh
for linux) which contains a template for mining Ixian on bzminer.
bzminer -a ixi -w 000000 -p http://yourpool
Replace 000000
with your mining wallet.
replace yourpool
with the pool's address and port you want to mine to.
Example:
bzminer -a ixi -w 000000 000000 000000 000000 -p http://ixian.changeling.biz:8081
Start by downloading the latest version of bzminer, found here. Then extract the contents of the archive.
A file called config.txt
should be present. Open this file and look for the section (at the top) called pool_configs
.
There should already be one or two pool config templates in there. In the first template, set the algorithm
to ixi
, the wallet
to your wallet, and url
to the pool you want to mine to.
Example:
{ "pool_configs": [{ "algorithm": "ixi", "wallet": "00000", // replace 0000 with your own wallet addresses "url": ["http://ixian.changeling.biz:8081"], // replace with the pool you wish to mine to. Add multiple pools for failsafe when a pool fails "username": "worker_name", "lhr_only": false }], "pool": [0], // pool config you wish to use by default when device_overrides does not specify "rig_name": "rig", "log_file": "", "nvidia_only": false, "amd_only": false, "lock_config": false, "advanced_config": false, "advanced_display_config": false, "device_overrides": []
