Mines what's best on whattomine.com based on user-provided coin/algo scripts based on "btc_revenue".

usage: mine.py looptime = number of seconds before recalculating rewards and switching the miner

I'll put more stuff here later. Getting set up is fairly involved. You need to do the following:

  1. Determine your hashrates, via benchmarking or just use whattomine.com defaults; put those values into the mine.py script. If you want to disable a particular algo, enter the hashrate as zero.

  2. Set up wallets/pools. Coinomi and Jaxx support a lot of coins. For the others, you should install the "official" wallet clients, e.g., ZCL, GBX, HAL. For pools, I like altminer.net, miningpoolhub.com, and suprnova.cc; though making accounts on the latter is a pain in the ass.

  3. Get your miners set up.
    I typically use the following miners:
    Equihash -- ewbf_zec_miner_034b (https://github.com/nanopool/ewbf-miner/releases)
    Ethash -- open source miner (https://github.com/ethereum-mining/ethminer/releases) -- don't trust Claymore, shit is sketchy AF and closed source.
    Mostly everything else -- ccminer222 (https://github.com/tpruvot/ccminer/releases)

  4. Configure your minecmd.csv; I provided an example in the repo. You obviously need to provide your own command lines based on your set up. Make sure you type the algos in exactly as they appear in the whattomine.com json file (case insensitive), else it will be ignored.

To do:

  1. Allow comments in minecmd.csv; and provide some instructions of getting each coin/algo set up. -- done
  2. Re-execute at predetermined intervals; so we're always mining the best coins/algos. -- done
  3. Log everything. -- done
  4. Some sort of fail-safe? Kill the miner if it's not connecting to the pool, or rejected, etc.
  5. Move hashrates into separate file or get them from somewhere on-the-fly. -- done
  6. Combine all input files and write a parser for them
  7. Clean up old logs automatically
  8. Don't restart the miner if we're already mining the best coin.
