Ton Coin Pool stratum-miner

Ton Coin Pool mining client based on official tontechio/pow-miner-gpu

Translations

🇷🇺 Русский

Prerequirements

Install latest GPU drivers for your platform: CUDA-capable GPU (Nvidia) or OpenCL-capable (AMD)
Download Wallet app and create a wallet to obtain address

Usage

Download the appropriate executable for your platform from Releases page:

Windows: file with .exe extension
MacOS: .zip archive containing .app file
Linux: .AppImage file with GUI or linux-headless.tar.gz archive containing CLI-only binary

GUI Fields

Mining binary: select pow-miner-gpu binary for your system. Each binary has a Custom version built from our fork of the official miners. Custom miners are not well-tested but should have higher GPU utilization, especially on high end GPUs. Use at your own risk!
GPUs: GPUs, that you want to use for mining
Wallet address: correct TON Wallet address. DO NOT USE ANY CRYPTO EXCHANGE SERVICES WALLETS!!!
Rig name: rig name for statistics on website. Allowed symbols are latin, numeric, , -, _, max 24 symbols length

HiveOS integration

This instructions are targeted at users experienced with HiveOS

Add your TON wallet

Following official instructions: https://hiveos.farm/guides-how_to_start_mine_in_Hive_OS

Coin - toncoin
Address - you TON wallet address
Name - any name
Source - leave blank
leave switch Fetch wallet balance unchecked

Creating Flight Sheet

Following official instructions: https://hiveos.farm/getting_started-start_custom_miner

Creating flight sheet:

Flight Sheet Name - any name
Coin - toncoin you made previously
Wallet - select one you made previously
Pool - Configure in miner
Miner - select Custom and press Setup Miner Config

Setting up custom miner:

Miner name - should be populated automatically once you enter Installation URL. If it didn't, enter TON_Stratum_Miner_HiveOS
Installation URL - https://github.com/toncoinpool/stratum-miner/releases/latest/download/TON_Stratum_Miner_HiveOS-<version>.tar.gz where <version> - is the last client version(1.0.5, 1.1.0, etc.). Example: https://github.com/.../TON_Stratum_Miner_HiveOS-1.0.5.tar.gz
Hash algorithm - leave blank
Wallet and worker template - strictly type %WAL% with no spaces
Pool URL - can be any url, not used by the client. Example: stratum+tcp://p2p.antpool.com:3333
Extra config arguments - the most important field with client configuration:
- TONPOOL_BIN - one of:
  - pow-miner-cuda-ubuntu-18 - CUDA mining binary
  - pow-miner-cuda-ubuntu-18-custom - Experimental CUDA mining binary, see GUI Fields
  - pow-miner-opencl-ubuntu-18 - OpenCL mining binary
  - pow-miner-opencl-ubuntu-18-custom - Experimental OpenCL mining binary, see GUI Fields
- TONPOOL_GPUS - comma-separated list of GPU device Ids that should be used by miner where 0 - the first device, 1 - second, and so on. Examples: 0 for single GPU; 0,3,4 for the first, fourth and fifth GPUs.
- TONPOOL_RIGNAME - name of this rig to use on the stats screen on the website. Can be any string composed of english letter and digits(no spaces, symbols and non-english letters allowed)
Example:
```
TONPOOL_BIN=pow-miner-cuda-ubuntu-18
TONPOOL_GPUS=0,1,2
TONPOOL_RIGNAME=myHiveRig1
```
Press Apply Changes
Press Create Flight Sheet

To apply new Flight Sheet follow the instructions in chapter How to start mine in Hive OS? on https://hiveos.farm/guides-how_to_start_mine_in_Hive_OS/#how-to-start-mine-in-hive-os

Miner logs are written into /var/log/miner/TON_Stratum_Miner_HiveOS/TON_Stratum_Miner_HiveOS.log

Automatic updates are not yet supported. When a new version is released you should repeat the procedure described above

Headless

You can run the client without the GUI directly from the command line:

$ ./TON-Stratum-Miner --headless --wallet <your-wallet-address> [--bin <name>] [--gpus <ids>] [--pool <uri>] [--rig <name>]

-h, --headless: Required. Pass this flag to not open the client's GUI window
-w, --wallet: Required. Your TON wallet's address
-b, --bin <name>: Name of the miner binary. Can be one of:

Linux:
- pow-miner-cuda-ubuntu-18
- pow-miner-cuda-ubuntu-20
- pow-miner-opencl-ubuntu-18
- pow-miner-opencl-ubuntu-20
Windows:
- pow-miner-cuda.exe
- pow-miner-opencl.exe
Each binary has a <name>-custom version as well, see GUI Fields. Example: pow-miner-cuda-custom.exe

Defaults to pow-miner-cuda-ubuntu-20
-g, --gpus <ids>: Comma-separated list of GPU device Ids that should be used by miner. Defaults to 0. Only necessary on multi-GPU systems. Example: --gpus 0,3,4
-p, --pool: Pool address to connect to. Defaults to wss://pplns.toncoinpool.io/stratum
-r, --rig: How this client's stats will be seen on toncoinpool.io. Defaults to default
