AntPool Version Mining Software

Download link:  https://pan.baidu.com/s/1-T554elqhRkJS-VfLGYe8A 

Code: utk2

AntPool version software uses AntPool mining address by default. You only need to input your own wallet address, and modify worker name. After saving the settings, you could run the software.

1.    Bminer (N card, currently only supports ETH/CKB dual mining) 

1)    Download and unzip the Bminer mining software. Select “mine_eth_ckb.bat” file and right click to edit.

2)    The parameter settings are as follows in the bat file:

 (Note: Don't add any blank line in the file, wallet address and worker name are separated by dot “.”)

@echo OFF

SET ADDRESS=eth wallet address

REM ****Ethereum Wallet ADDR**********

SET ADDRESS_2=ckb wallet address

REM ****CKB ADDR**********

SET WORKERNAME=worker name

REM ****Worker name of this miner**********

3)    After the parameter setting is completed, save the bat file and then double-click to start mining. You will be able to see the hashrate as follows:

NBminer (supports N card& A card)

1)       Download and unzip the NBminer mining software. Select .bat file and right click to edit. Select “start_ckb.bat” file to mine CKB, select “start_ckb_eth.bat” file to dual mine CKB and ETH. 

2)      The parameter settings are as follows in the bat file:

(Note: Don't add any blank line in the file, wallet address and worker name are separated by dot “.”)

CKB single mining:

nbminer -a eaglesong -o stratum+tcp://ckb.antpool.com:9018 -u walletaddress.workername

CKB&ETH dual mining:

nbminer -a eaglesong_ethash -o stratum+tcp://ckb.antpool.com:9018 -u walletaddress.workername -do ethproxy+tcp://stratum-eth.antpool.com:8008 -du walletaddress.workername
