sgminer v5.6.1

Mon Aug 31, 2020 2:21 pm

For the record: I'm not a developer of sgminer and haven't contributed any coding for sgminer, but was active in proposing and coordinating new features development. All the credits go to the many sgminer developers, listed in arhiv. NiceHash organization took over the initiative to continue development on this widely spread open-source mining software, therefore the most recent source code and releases can be found in the information below.


Please note: sgminer is still in development, you should regularly, so there are might be still some open issues and minor bugs present.

Here is an example of multi-algorithm configuration (you can add many pool-specific options):

Code: Select all

{ "pools" : [ { "name" : "NiceHash_X11", "url" : "stratum+tcp://stratum nicehash com:3336", "user" : "btc_addr", "pass" : "x", "nfactor" : "10", "algorithm" : "darkcoin-mod" }, { "name" : "NiceHash_X13", "url" : "stratum+tcp://stratum nicehash com:3337", "user" : "btc_addr", "pass" : "x", "nfactor" : "10", "algorithm" : "marucoin-mod" }, { "name" : "NiceHash_SHA3", "url" : "stratum+tcp://stratum nicehash com:3338", "user" : "btc_addr", "pass" : "x", "nfactor" : "10", "algorithm" : "maxcoin" }, { "name" : "NiceHash_Scrypt-N", "url" : "stratum+tcp://stratum nicehash com:3335", "user" : "btc_addr", "pass" : "x", "nfactor" : "11", "algorithm" : "zuikkis" }, { "name" : "NiceHash_Scrypt", "url" : "stratum+tcp://stratum nicehash com:3333", "user" : "btc_addr", "pass" : "x", "nfactor" : "10", "algorithm" : "zuikkis" } ] "failover-only" : true, "failover-switch-delay" : "300", "queue" : "0", ... other configuration settings ...
