XMRig miner RandomX, CryptoNight, KawPow, AstroBWT and Argon2
XMRig – High-performance open source cross-platform miner RandomX, CryptoNight, KawPow, AstroBWT and Argon2, with official Windows and Linux support. A program for mining coins on the RandomX and CryptoNight algorithms. Suitable for both AMD and Nvidia video cards and processors. The program has a commission to the developer in the form of 1-5%. In this step-by-step instruction, we will tell you how to set up the commission and body shirts for different coins.

Changesv6.4.0:
#1862 RandomX: removed rx/loki algorithm.
#1890 Added argon2/chukwav2 algorithm.
#1895 #1897 Added benchmark and stress test.
#1864 RandomX: improved software AES performance.
#1870 RandomX: fixed unexpected resume due to disconnect during dataset init.
The preferred way to set up a miner is through a JSON configuration file as it is more flexible and user friendly. The CLI does not cover all features, such as mining profiles for different algorithms. Important parameters can be changed at runtime without restarting the miner by editing the configuration file or making API calls.
xmrig.com/wizard – will help you create the initial configuration for the miner.
edit the .bat file with the desired coin (change the wallet to your own)
Configuring xmrig for Monero mining
To mine coins on the randomx algorithm, we need to create or edit a ready-made batch file for the coin you need. These are basic settings, which are sufficient for mining. We’ll look at the secondary settings later.
Decoding the contents of the batch file
xmrig – this key will indicate which program will be launched. We leave it as it is. For Nvidia, specify xmrig-nvidia
-a randomx – specify the algorithm. For Monero, leave this one. For coins on the cryptonight-lite algorithm, we indicate it
-o pool.supportxmr.com – we indicate the address of your pool. In this example, we have supportxmr, because at the time of writing, it has received the most positive reviews
5555 – after the pool address, specify the pool port with a colon. dwarfpool has 8050
-u 4ALcw9nTAS…MMK19WZM44HnQR….Xx2r34HNroSAZ – after the -u key, we indicate the address of your digital wallet. Get it on the cryptocurrency exchange, or install a cold wallet
–donate-level=1 настраиваем комиссию майнера. По умолчанию она составляет 5%. level=1 означает 1%
