Mining BTM with AntMiner (B3), a detailed Instruction
BTM is mined using the AI-friendly algorithm called Tensority. Take B3 as an example, we will introduce the operation process of mining with our AntMiner.
1. AntPool account registration and configuration
For details, please refer to "FAQ——Account Registration"
2. Install the miner, connect miner with a network cable and turn on the power (the voltage needs to be around 210v-230v; 1M bandwidth can carry about 200 miners; the local network should be more stable)
3. Get miner’s IP
1) Download miner IP reporter software please click on the link:
https://www.AntPool.com/download.htm?m=tools
2) Go to “IP-Reporter” to download. Requirement: Miner must be connected with a network cable and powered on; Your computer and your miner need to be in the same IP range (For example, miner IP is 192.168.0.2, computer IP is 192.168.0.67; then they are in same IP range). Detailed information please refer to the downloaded manual. (Hint: If a warning pops up by downloading, please close the anti-virus software on your computer. This software is completely safe.)
4. Set static IP for miners
1) If you own more than three miners, we would like to recommend that you set static IP for your miners to better manage them.
2) static IP setting software and manual please click on the link:
https://www.AntPool.com/download.htm?m=tools
3) Go to “Worker IP Configuration Tools V1.0” to download. Follow the Manual for detailed operation process (Hint: If a warning pops up by downloading, please close the anti-virus software on your computer. This software is completely safe.)
4) log in miner backstage
a. After you find miner’s IP using IP reporter tool, open the browser on your computer (recommended browser is Chrome or Firefox, and computer needs to be in the same IP range), enter the found IP into the address bar of the browser, and proceed to login using root for both the username and password:
b. Miner backstage after login:
5. Connect to AntPool and set up workers
1) stratum server address: (can be found in the right bottom corner of AntPool website page)
①stratum-btm.antpool.com:6666
②stratum-btm.antpool.com:443
③stratum-btm.antpool.com:25
2) Set up workers and connect to AntPool (worker name is sub-account name + suffix, for example, sub-account: always; the first worker could be named as: always.01, the second: always.02... And so on)
3) Fill in three stratum server addresses to miner backstage (recommended to fill one same worker name for the three server addresses, 123 could be taken as password). Click “Save & Apply” to run the miner.
4) Keep miner running for about 10 minutes; check miner’s hash rate, temperature and other parameters under miner status from miner backstage
(Note: As long as one of the three stratum server addresses is Alive, the connection would be ok. For once the primary server is in Dead state, miner will switch to the second address automatically, and this will not impact your earnings.)
Parameters under Miner Status:
A: Operation time
B: Miner hash rate
C: Pool connection status, “Alive” means connected
D: Error rate, normally lower than 0.03%
E: Number of Hash boards
F: Number of chips detected in the chain
G: ASIC frequency setting
H: Hash rate of each hash board
I: Hash board temperature
J: ASIC temperature
K: ASIC status, “O” indicates OK; “X” indicates error; “-” indicates dead
L: Fan speed
5) Keep miner running for about 10 minutes, check miner’s hash rate in AntPool
6. Earnings and payment
1) AntPool makes payouts each day. Once your earnings reach the minimum payment amount, coins will be sent to your wallet automatically. (BTM default minimum payment amount is 5. This threshold value can be modified in AntPool by yourself.)
2) Payment will be sent to the wallet you set up in AntPool. You could check the payment in your wallet or view your payment history under “Dashboard”– “Payment History” in AntPool (Paying: means payment is in the process; Paid: means payment completed, coins sent to your wallet).
(If you did not set up wallet address, your earnings will be retained in your account balance.)
Note:Please make sure to use a valid wallet address for mining. AntPool will not be responsible for any loss of earnings caused by wrong wallet configuration.
7. Now we have gone through all the process of account registration, miner configuration, and AntPool connection. Wish you happy mining with us!
