Replace username with your wallet address or website username. You can replace "worker" with the name of your rig. This way you can track the performance of each rig separately on the website.
Within a couple minutes you will start seeing reports appear on the website. To find your report, enter your username in the top-left search box and press enter, and it'll come right up. Be aware that you need to mine for several minutes before you start seeing realistic performance data. It takes time for the pool to start collecting your shares so it can figure out how fast you're mining.
Failovers: If you're on Windows, you can make a bat file that will start the miner and fall back on different stratums if one fails. Create your bat file like this:
@echo off
cls
:start
kawpowminer -U -P stratum+tcp://[email protected]:4501
kawpowminer -U -P stratum+tcp://[email protected]:4501
kawpowminer -U -P stratum+tcp://[email protected]:4501
goto start
Just run that it'll loop through all the stratums if any should fall off. Speaking of stratums, we have a number of different servers you can connect to for mining here. They all report the shares back to the same place, and the block reward is shared among all the MinerMore pool servers, so it doesn't matter which one you mine to. Pick the one closest to your location.
If you're running Linux, you can just run the miner from the shell, or make a shell script that starts the miner. A good shell script might look like:
#!/bin/bash
while [ true ] ; do
kawpowminer -U -P stratum+tcp://[email protected]:4501
kawpowminer -U -P stratum+tcp://[email protected]:4501
kawpowminer -U -P stratum+tcp://[email protected]:4501
done
Once you're all setup and mining, you can tweak your settings. Generally you can save money without sacrificing much hash rate by running your cards at around 70% power. So for a 1080ti card that runs at 250W, you can run it at 170W. You can change the power usage on Linux with the command:
sudo nvidia-smi -pm 1 ; sudo nvidia-smi -pl 170
Change the 170 above to whatever watts you want your card running at. If you're on Windows, download Afterburner and use it to control the settings. You can also play around with changing your clock and memory speeds if you're feeling adventurous. x16rv2 is the algorithm that Ravencoin uses for hashing, and it can be... interesting. It rotates through different algorithms for each block, so some blocks you get a higher hashrate than others. It can also be very stressful to your power usage, so be sure you have plenty of power available to your system.
Mining on MinerMore is fun and enjoyable, and Ravencoin is a great project with a lot of excitement and a highly active community. Sometimes we find blocks really fast on this pool, and we make a lot of coins really quick. Other times we go a long while without a finding a block and everyone panics until the drought is broken. It's all part of the game and shouldn't be stressed over.
